501st Commando Posted April 24, 2010 Well here it is! The Republic Light Cruiser! It took about 1 and a half months to build. It's a little bigger than the 6211 (see pick below), and has about 4500 pieces +/-500 pieces. The interior didn't have as much room as I hoped, so some parts lack detail. I had a great time building it, and plan on making more big ships. So here it is! Exterior! Next to the 6211 ISD playset. Interior! Training room. Main room/command room. Meditation room. The medical center The hall/entrance. Main doors (closed). Main doors (open). The nose door. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RoryoCox Posted April 24, 2010 Very nice. The colours and shape is great. Well Done Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Legonater Posted April 24, 2010 I like it. You combine the Venater and Star Destroyer very well. Good job, and I'm a conformist!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prateek Posted April 24, 2010 Nice! It's way better than the official Venator Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

legobryne Posted April 24, 2010 (edited) Wow, that's amazing, nice interior and design, I wish you could make it a bit longer, it looks a bit fat. Edited April 24, 2010 by legobryne Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fallenangel Posted April 25, 2010 Oh, it's that ship from the new Clone Wars series... I thought you meant like a Consular or something. In any case, the colors themselves and the smooth interior are both very nice. Love the wall detailing. The first thing I would suggest is to make the ship a bit more squat - the LEGO Venator had a similar problem of being too tall. You can use wing plates to fill in the little gaps along the middle. Actually, since the actual ship appears to have a large groove in the front, I would suggest building the main hull in a similar way to the 10030 UCS Star Destroyer rather than the method used by the 6211 - the former allows for a straight gap along the center. Another thing - the rear section where the thrusters are present should resemble the rear section of a Consular-class cruiser - your version is rather chunky in comparison. Might I suggest using the "fin" bricks like on the dorsal fin of the 7166 Imperial Shuttle, attached sideways? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

not-in-use-anymore Posted April 25, 2010 (edited) Lovely interior, but is this from EU/CW? The white is slighly distracting, I think a light grey/bley would have worked. Can we get a picture looking down the hallway from either side? Edited April 25, 2010 by indianajones Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Col. Brik Posted April 25, 2010 Impressive work. If you have more photos that would be great to see more. It is a well thought out build. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NarakuAulonocara Posted April 25, 2010 It looks really nice although it would be even better if it were less bulky Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lt.Gonville brickhead Posted April 25, 2010 I like it especially the inside. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rufus Posted April 25, 2010 Nice! Interesting technique with built-up plates on the angled sections of the 'waist'. I'd like to see a bit more detail on the engines though; they look a bit unfinished. Do you have a reference picture for comparison! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As for the colors I ran out of a piece I needed for light bley, so I had to go with white. Nice! Interesting technique with built-up plates on the angled sections of the 'waist'. I'd like to see a bit more detail on the engines though; they look a bit unfinished. Do you have a reference picture for comparison! Here it is. @-Thanks for the comments everyone!
