Awesome ships, but I don't really get a TIE feeling from them. But besides that I really like it.
-
Yeah, I guess a bumpmap could work, but sometimes it looks better when it's actually modeled.
-
It's extruded text. It doesn't completely match the actual studs, but still. And you got a point about keeping the polys down though, some of the bigger models I made, like the Egyptian temple really made my computer complain.

@TerranCmdr: glad to see another 3dsMax user. It's also funny we both use the same measurements for the bricks. Two things though. First, I always chamfer the top edges of my bricks with an amount of 0.1, so they look better when stacked. Second, I prefer to use "attach" instead of the boolean way, because personally, I try to avoid using anything that has to do with booleans. It also immediately attaches the meshes together and doesn't muck up the edgeflow. Here's a little render to show the difference between chamfered (left) and not chamfered (right):

Made a Mini TIE Fighter: Now I'm gonna model the 30051 Mini X-Wing. Edit: done.
-
Those look seriously awesome. How long did it take to model them?
-
Those are seriously awesome. I love modelling Lego as well. I have a few Star Wars models, so I guess I'll post them here as well. Here are some more when it's public.
-
Good is just a word. The reality... is much more awesome. Sorry, couldn't resist. I love this movie, in a creepy sort of way, since every them I watch it alone, I totally freak myself out. But anyway, I really love the model.
-
Man, that is awesome. I really like the uhm... well, the whole thing actually
-
They look so angelic, nice!
-
Wow, you have my utmost respect for doing that in Illustrator. I hate the program. Anyway, it's awesome, but maybe you could add the droid's shadow.
-
I personally really like the Mad Max setting. Small towns made from scrap metal, big fast cars pulled by camels, a society that was annihilated and is trying to pull itself together...
-
I'd like to participate in this. Since I've joined I want to do something post-apoc and maybe this is my chance. I also don't have an enormous pile of pieces, but I think I have enough for something like this.
-
Challenge accepted. And this is what I ended up with: I know it's not exactly small enough to be held by a Minifig, but I like it anyway :P Also, I only used parts from the mini Snowspeeder/AT-ST set.
-
That thing is really awesome. I want one! Also, about the acronym for Speederbike, I got as far as "Super Powerful Equine Enforcer". Maybe that'll help
-
Awesome. Although slightly creepy that that head matches so perfectly :P
-
That's awesome. The only comment though, when looking at the reference, is that his legs are kinda short. But that makes him look cute, so...
-
Them are some pretty cool weapons. I do agree though that the flamethrower should maybe have the fuel reserve on the Trooper's back.
-
And do you maybe have some better pictures of the weapon on the left? Anyway, the vehicle looks pretty cool.

I decided to make a walker from the 4486 Mini AT-ST and Snowspeeder set. And this is what I got: After going through Wookiepedia for a while I decided it's a Light All Terrain Personal Transport. It was kinda tricky making it with only the parts of that one set, and also since I didn't have any references, I mainly made it by just attaching bricks wherever they would fit. I think in the end it looks quite nice, except for the orange parts. And it's not really that stable. But besides that, I like it. Oh yeah, and I made this "cleaning droid" with the remaining parts. I can already see this swooshing down the halls of the Death Star, racing those little mouse droids and aggrevating the Stormies.
-
"Imperial hangover -Luckily the other Stormtroopers noticed John wasn't wearing his regulation armor just before the Emperor arrived." I think that sorta fits, if you consider the second picture you took as "the night before".
-
Will you ever cease to amaze me? I hope not.
-
Being a soldier in a tyrannical empire is pretty exhausting, so after a hard day of shooting everything but the hero and bumping into door frames the Stormtroopers can go here and relax. There's a droid working here 24/7 and the colourless grey interior will make sure you'll feel at home rightaway. Oh yeah, please leave your weapons at the door. Just let me know if you want more pictures, I'm a bit too hungover at the moment to be all photographical and stuff.
-
Not much I think. Have you ever seen them shoot? Or maybe Vader comes in every once in a while and Force chokes them if he finds their lack of sobriety disturbing.
-
The trench on the outside maybe? But that bike is looking awesome. Also, if all of a sudden I'm struck with inspiration, would you mind if I made my own Trooper appreciation day? I really like the idea.
