90s_Lego_Guy Posted April 27, 2019 Hello everyone, this is a lego techno union ship from Star Wars Episode 2 battle of Geonosis. I've been working on a whole MOC for the battle of Geonosis for about a year now. Here is the Techno Union ship part!! I would like to give proper credit to Gerechtigkeitsliga for his inspirational design. The bottom 3rd is based off his design, while I did re-engineer it, I also made changes and modifications to try and make it a bit more unique. This is his link to his original techno union ship: Current stats for my version of this lego model Piece count: about 14,000 Height: 34.5 inches Time to build: 2 and 1/2 months. This while 99% complete is still is a work in progress, if you have any suggestions of what to improve feel free to comment. I'd love to hear some expert opinions and ideas, thanks everyone!! 57382255_606818306486633_3777854169864470528_n by Daniel Prelesnik, on Flickr A lego techno union ship from Star Wars Episode 2 by Daniel Prelesnik, on Flickr 58382662_2041601556144198_3036493774638284800_n by Daniel Prelesnik, on Flickr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ellisss_2 Posted April 28, 2019 Wow, awesome job I’ve always wanted to see one of these completed to a high standard in Lego, I love the detailing! Great job with the overall shape, it must have been very difficult to achieve the roundness of the top part, looks like you have used a rather unique technique to do so!

Cylo Posted April 28, 2019 That looks stunning! The way that you built the top is very interesting! What a great first post too. Welcome to Eurobricks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kommander Posted April 28, 2019 You did a great job with the egg-shaped dome. I wonder how it looks inside. Can the feets hold the construction on their own? Cause it is difficult to see the bottom. Anyways stunning MOC! Greetings Keller Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had to use 3 pillars (Which I think is also landing gear since they are there in blueprints) and translucent bricks to help hold it up. This thing weighs about 35 to 40 pounds, and is just to much weight for the 3 feet. Hope this answers your curiosity and question, thanks!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrMuttonchops Posted April 28, 2019 Yow, 35-40lbs?! That's huge! Looks fantastic, I LOVE the detailed greebling! Great rendition of a Hardcell, you knocked it out of the park. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chromide Posted April 29, 2019 Looks incredible, I always feel like Lego doesn't give the Separatists much love with how little we get of their large vehicles and ships. I do really love that 4481 Hailfire Droid model though, much better than the other versions. Are we going to see the core ship model next? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
