That is stunning. If I didn't know better I would say that is work by Onecase. That's about the highest praise I can bestow.

Yep! https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/188478-ucs-75313-at-at-modding/&page=3&tab=comments#comment-3521597

One of his original ISD's was about 6,200 parts. It could be that. If it is I'm screwed because I don't have the space, but it would look so good next to the Aggressor it would have to be built :/

[MOC] UCS Nebulon-b frigate (by Dranac, feat. onecase))
Schneeds replied to Dranac's topic in LEGO Star Wars
I finally freed up the time for this project. I also substituted sand blue for the green parts like Frizzle did as the wedge prices are insane. Made a fair number of other substitutions to newer versions of parts which I don't believe will be visible or change the appearance and brought the price down a bout $300 all in all. Hopefully it goes well. -
A new Onecase model with 7k pieces!?!? Please let it be an OT model. THE SUSPENSE IS KILLING ME. As is the fact that I'm going to have to come up with space to display whatever it is.

God I love it when a masterclass build just bursts onto the scene completely out of nowhere, especially when it's something as iconic as the MF. This is world class. The exterior is on par with MB's, maybe even a bit better for my personal tastes. It has a look of real grit to it, while still having perfect lines and curves. Like you just stole the prop from the studio archives. The only thing I would consider altering is the black grills in the engine vents. They look a bit too blocky compared to the rest is so perfectly sculpted. Just my two cents :)

[MOC] Hippocampus - my new ship with an unusual hull
Schneeds replied to Dreamweb's topic in Pirate MOCs
I was going to give this a 10/10 but I don't see a parrot or monkey. Seriously though, this is fantastic. -
That's some serious competition in the creature bracket. Any one of them could have been first place. I love the wolf though, great tribute to Rebels.

Why has Lego not put these into a book for purchase yet?
-
I don't know why no one is really interested in modding this one. It looks night and day different with relatively straightforward exterior mods.

I don't have any instructions. Basically I just rebuilt the top two levels of plates; first using 4x8 wedges which I think you have to buy used, and then the top by alternating the new 2x4 tile wedges with 2x3 wedges. Then did the same for the bottom. Before you put the plates back on, add plates to the rear of two technic beams that make up the frame to span the gap with 2x3, 3x3 plates etcetera, so that you have the foundation for securing the 1x2 jumpers that you will put the 2x plates on for the greebling base. There's a fair amount of trial and error building the plates because all the hidden support plates have to fit with in the frame, but overall not too difficult.

About a thousand tiles later... This set is a great foundation to work on, and the stability really is worth the sacrifices.
-
Amazing post. Shout out to the Psiaki, I built one a few years ago :)
-
Here's the falcon as it stands currently. I've pretty much resurfaced the entire thing, but the entire frame and structure is still stock. At some point I might tackle the underside, but that's a daunting task and never gets viewed as it sits horizontal in its display table. I have to get around to posting my AT-AT mods at some point. I think that set is a bit of a sleeper for mods.

No, I ended up using the new 2x4 tiles and some of the old 4x8 plate wedges. I'll try to get some high quality current pictures up this coming week.
