[MOC] Imperial Turbolaser Battery

[Veynom]

I finally got time to take decent pictures of my latest Imperial turbolaser turret.

It is based from the design of Ismael Trabajo found on the Internet and adapted according to my stock of available parts.

It is an easy build with solid rendering. It can rotate, guns can move up and down (synchronized). The turret can be open to put in to 3 crewmen inside. Kids have lot of fun with that turret and many rebels died to bring you back these pictures.

And when exposing, it is massive enough to attract the eye while being a welcome change to the usual fleets of ships.

 

Everyone asking for it, I made it public: here is a link toward the LDD of Ismael Trabajo that I used as basis for this MOC. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1vaj7zQ8D8XmhPy3PowN1U9MTxkfBfc1v

this is just awesome!

maybe you should build a death star around this? :D

[mrcngrck]

great!

[belkor]

Totally love it Veynom :)

Any chance of an LDD please?

Thank you!

 

[Bricksnaps]

Very good. Well done

[Veynom]

Thank you for the nice comment. And no, I will not build a Death Star around it. ;)

Nice attempt.

I have no LDD of this exact model but I have the original LDD which I use as basis. As I am not the original author, I prefer not posting it. However if you leave me your email address (pm or so) then I would gladly mail it to you.

Looks very powerful. Just the way it should be! Nice.

I love this build. PM sent regarding the original LDD file.

Looks awesome, I'm a big fan of the greebling! How many pieces approximately?

Around 1000-1200 bricks, I estimate. Based on the original LDD of 1700 bricks, minus the inside I did not do.

This is probably the best one I’ve seen, love these. Great work. If you have a file, I would certainly take a look!

Please include a link for the speeder bike instructions. Also, maybe you should design a small version, like the one in the First Order Battle Pack.

The speeder is merely a recolored version from the one of the Mandalorian Battle Pack, with only a couple of very minor changes. 

As for the turret, maybe you mean something like this one ?

Yeah, a small turret made with more common pieces.

Hi Veynom, I love this Turbolaser MOC, I have been on LDD all afternoon trying to get this one right, is there any chance of emailing the original LDD? I have a SW lego kits now but I want to MOC up a static piece as well! Your version of turret is the most interesting I have found, but I can't get the internals exact on LDD!

Hi I am new to the forum but think the job Veynom did was incredible.

 

Any chance to get a copy of the LDD also?

I have added a link toward the LDD I used as basis for this MOC. Please note I did not reproduce the inside and I made quite some modifications compared to the LDD.

Thank you. Link to the LDD has been added to the original post.

[jordanewcastle]

Thank you sir, great work on the turbolaser!

I have to say, although slightly frustrating, it was great fun rebuilding your version of the turrets by picture alone, I think I got the internals close enough to build without it falling apart!

I have tried to download the LDD file and it is giving me a redirection error. Even after I add it to my drive i get the error anyone know how I can fix that?

 

Figured it out Safari and google drive don't play well had to use chrome.

Hola Ismael,

Muchas gracias por el LDD. 

You did a great job and I have added your name to my original post.

[MrSean7310]

Wow. Cool. Those are some pretty beefy lookin’ laser guns right there! If I were a Rebel I’d be shaking in my boots! Great Job!

[DrMuttonchops]

Sorry to necro an older thread, but I built my own from Ismael's LDD file.  Looks amazing, thanks to Veynom and Ismael.

I also included @Praiter Yed's excellent moisture vaporator as well in the back corner of the display.
