    Tweaked Tie Fighter MOC

    Beautiful model. I was about to say there was no way you got that engine shaping with bricks and then saw it was a sticker .

    Custom UCS Stickers

    I went ahead and used one of the images on Mould King's website to take a stab at this. What do you think?

    I'd be happy to give it a shot. The only thing is its preferable to have a digital model so that I can get the best angle. Long shot, but you don't happen to have a stud.io file for this model do you? Otherwise I would need the instructions to build it digitally and do the render.

    I made a video overview of this model showing handling and highlighting some of my favorite bits. Give it a like if you wouldn't mind, I'm dipping my toes into the youtube space. Also my camera kinda of just crapped the bed after I filmed this so that's fun.

    Looks fantastic! Probably my favorite one of yours so far. Capital ships are always so cool in this scale.

    [MOC] TIE Phantom

    Major update to the wings and some internal stuff for stronger connections. I can extremely confidently swoosh this thing around by holding on the rear or from the wings. The instructions also got an overhaul. I opened it as a new project on Rebrickable in case anyone wanted to purchase the version with all the improvements, otherwise the old version is still available for free.

    Really interesting wing connections. I guess the alternation of the 65578 bar pieces is what provides the stability? I hope to get around to building this one as I'm big on illegal techniques and am not happy with other models in that regard and you claim to have avoided them :)

    Reworked the rear section significantly. Also some internal stuff in the wings and some updated instructions that should hopefully result in a smoother build process.

    Amazing, I love the canopy and the shaping around it especially.

    [MOC] TIE Phantom

    Back again with an update. I started off with trying a different technique for the engine heat spreaders which led me down a path of tweaking many things including the wing proportions, the wing-tip blasters, the entire rear section, the whole engine 'pod', and the greebling. Also a look at a landing pad I'm working on.
  11. I love everything else you've added to the model to make it like an official set with marketing materials. I've also done some box art designing and it's much harder and more tedious than it looks!

    Custom UCS Stickers

    After quite a bit more experimentation I got a result that's much closer to what actual UCS stickers look like:

    Just a little update, I think I finally figured out what was bugging me about the proportions of the cockpit. It needed just a touch more length and I was able to reincorporate the macaroni pieces which look way better than the slope pieces I was using. This is also going to afford me some additional space in the cockpit to add detailing but I haven't figured out what I want to do there yet.

    It sits on a stand although it could sit on the panels for a short while if you wanted -- they're pretty sturdy. There's instructions on the rebrickable page for the stand.
