Lobot Posted December 29, 2011 This is my second entry for the Episode VI Community Build. I'm surprised that this scene hasn't been attempted by anyone for the CB, so I felt that I should give it a bash! As usual, I've been limited by my supply of surplus bricks & lack of talent. I built this using a couple of screenshots & have tried to create a moderately accurate copy. Unfortunately, there's lots of difficult angles & large viewports, which made it rather difficult. Illuminated via 4 sets of Technic LEDs (I need to get some more), dimensions 38 x 24 studs. Anyway, I hope that you like it, C & C welcome Darth & Luke duel whilst the Emperor looks on (chuckling quietly to himself): Side view: From above: Edit: Extra photos added Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SSJ2 Dark Posted December 29, 2011 Well I think it looks pretty good! The LEDs hit those trans-blue slopes quite nicely, and I like the detailing on the guardrails and stairs. And a suggestion, if you could take a picture in lower light, I think it would accentuate the lights and reinforce the dark and somber mood. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Walter Posted December 29, 2011 Great job! I love the (somewhat) accurate look to it! You really put some thought into this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Werlu Ulcur Posted December 29, 2011 Awesome! That looks terrific! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M<0><0<DSWIM Posted December 29, 2011 VERY nicely done! I agree with SSJ2 Dark stating you should shoot this in lower light. It would definately resemble the scene more closely. LOve those "shelves" on the side walls, too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Walter Posted December 30, 2011 I want to chime in on doing lower lighting. You should try to recapture the lighting from the film. That would look incredible with this! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickmamba Posted December 30, 2011 nice lil moc, the led are a great idea Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lobot Posted December 30, 2011 Thanks for the comments, really appreciated! I'm still trying to work out how to use my new Canon EOS in low light, so I had to use my old compact. Unfortunately it refuses to focus with any less light that I've used! However, I've added a couple of new photos which show the overall layout. Cheers, Robin Cool MOC. Are those LEDs in the lights? Yes, I use the official Lego Technic LEDs - £5.49 each from S@H: link here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hollander Posted December 30, 2011 Great work! You really made an accurate representation of one of the most significant scenes of the Star Wars movies. Just one thing; I know it's all about the platforum Luke and Vader battle each other, but why not adding some more stuff at the adges of scene, to fill it up a little? But that's just what I think... Anyway, great job. You did well in adding an excellent MOC to the Community Build! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wokajablocka Posted December 30, 2011 Nice to see you create another great build for the ROJ CB. You dont give your self enough credit as the scene looks simple but enough details to relate to such a iconic part of the saga. The lighting on the emperor looks good but the rest of the scene needs a little darkening but apart from that . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lego envy Posted December 31, 2011 Nice MOC you created here...I like the led's too.. They add a lot to the scene... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Masked Builder Posted January 4, 2012 You've certainly nailed the over all shape of the MOC. This is something I would LOVED to have built if I had the Emperor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mortesv Posted January 5, 2012 Very nice scene - good job Having just completed the 10188 Death Star it is great to see this scene built more in scale with the movie. A quick note would be to perhaps look at how the the consoles with the blue slopes are done in the official model. I think that design would suit this scene perfectly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
