The Librarian Posted October 17, 2016 I've had this model sitting around for a fair while and it's taking up a lot of space so I figured it was time to take some pictures and show it off. As well as I can, anyway - I did get some decent lighting this morning . . . only to find I'd photographed it with some bricks splitting in one of the tail fins. So . . . poor lighting for the intact shots. Ho hum. Enjoy regardless!

ToaDraco Posted October 17, 2016 (edited) Awesome, well done! It looks nice and smooth with plenty of interior space. Excellent shaping overall. If I had one criticism it would be the interior colors. I'd recommend replacing the white with a different color, more grey may be too much so perhaps dark blue. The bright blue chairs also kind of stick out without that color appearing anywhere else in the moc to unify it. Perhaps black chairs might be a better option.

CF Mitch Posted October 18, 2016 Wow, awesome Blackbird! You've recreated the form and shape perfectly, in my opinion! My only gripe is the windscreen color, but that's nothing more than personal taste, so don't pay too much attention to it And I do kind of agree with ToaDraco's interior color suggestions as well But it's cool that your Blackbird has this big an interior at all. Really, great job! Regards, Mitch Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Librarian Posted October 19, 2016 Thanks for the comments, folks! The interior was supposed to be all white but I didn't have enough plates, so it ended up a mix of greys and white. The seats would either have been black or white had I but enough seats in either of those colours - turns out I have a surprisingly large number of blue seats. The canopy is orange for similar reasons - though while I do now own a trans-black version of that part, I felt that wouldn't stand out enough. I think I'd have preferred to do it in trans blue if I could. Anyway, thoughts to be considered the next time I build a Blackbird! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sander1992 Posted November 6, 2016 That looks massive and good. I do not mind the use of multiple colors in the interior. I think that white makes it a bit lighter and make the interior more visible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Librarian Posted November 7, 2016 Thanks for the comments! Glad you all liked the model. No LDD file I'm afraid, mqbui1. I don't use it and rarely design things digitally anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aethersprite Posted November 9, 2016 Wow... This looks incredible! I love the sleek shaping, and the spacious interior. Well done! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
N_Cat Posted November 10, 2016 Holy cow. That's gorgeous. I love the exterior, and there's no need to change the windscreen color, because the trans-orange looks great. The interior already looks professional, so I don't think there's a need to change it, but you can if you want to. But don't change anything about the outside, because that beauty's perfect.
