toastergrl Posted October 19, 2019 A Classic Space vignette by yours truly. I had a *lot* of fun making this, for sure - it's my first ever serious display scene, and I'm quite proud of it. What do you think? Check the album for more angles and detail shots, and check my signature for a more general-purpose Classic Space collection. Thanks for looking! ^u^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Littleworlds Posted October 19, 2019 Looks very fun and happy, well apart from that Blacktron fighter attacking! Nicely build; I like the antenna mast and the fact that it has some sort of "monorail". That ticks the right 80s-lego-space boxes. I would try hiding the mount for the blacktron ship and the laser blasts though (and switching them with green pieces instead). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toastergrl Posted October 20, 2019 Thank you very much! ^u^ I tried my best to hide the mount by using transparent pieces where possible, and having the flag in front of it - but I admit it wasn't a perfect solution... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hagridshut Posted October 20, 2019 The rail and car is great! Reminds me of the Classic Beta-1 Command Base. Thanks for sharing -- this made me smile Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

toastergrl Posted March 16, 2020 (edited) Again - sorry for the late response, GeoBrick! Benny's looking out into my room and seeing all the pieces he can use for spaceships currently stored away in boxes... :P Anyhow, hi again! I've been slowly building on this over the past few months. Here's its current state! The Blacktron viper was a little hard to keep upright so I ended up making this vignette completely civillian focused, and I did a few Bricks and Pieces orders in order to add a hangar and change the parts on the Monorail section. It unfortunately flexes a little in the middle when I pick it up, but I think it's otherwise coming along nicely, no? ^u^ Edited March 16, 2020 by toastergrl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GarryTheMinifig Posted March 17, 2020 That Blacktron fighter is A+, especially for how small and relatively simple it is. Great shaping and economy of parts! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted March 17, 2020 I love the classic feeling and the use of different colors for the minifigures! Very nice baseplate with moon effect! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
