_nours Posted November 13, 2011 Bête Noire is the kind of starship I always wanted when I was 10 : a big black nasty one with a lot of hidden weapons, big docking bay , a sort of playset with a fightening villain...So I did it! Here is the monster, it's about 4kgs and 96 studs long.

Hollander Posted November 15, 2011 Very interesting design, haven't seen anything like it before as far as I can remember. The interior is pretty sweet, and you made well use of that big head piece. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_nours Posted November 15, 2011 Incidentally _nours why do you have a _ before your name? Hi, nours is a nickname that came from "nounours" , teddybear in french. When I choose a name for a forum a few years ago nours was already used by someone so I added a _ and I found this rather graphic... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
K-Nut Posted November 15, 2011 You know that Bete means stupid in French, right? A loose translation of that name is Stupid Black. Great work! I like the design of the ship itself, as it's very unique and menacing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andonii Posted November 18, 2011 (edited) This is quite good. Interesting design. Was it just the camera, or did the bricks really have that glossy look to them. Edited November 19, 2011 by Andonii Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hollander Posted November 19, 2011 (edited) I couldn't remember what this creation reminded me of when I first saw it, but not I remember: Alien (The Alien, or ''Xenomorph''). The curved headpiece reminds me of it's head, and the large ''ribs'' at the side of it's tail. Is this too farfetched, or am I not the only one thinking of it this way?
