Republic space station

[501st Commando]

Here's my latest MOC, a Republic Space station. My main inspiration was Cloud City, the round shape made it a challenge, so I went for that look. I also wanted to keep it very Republic like, so I went with the white and dark red color for the main colors and some bleys, and trans blue to break it up a bit.

I'm not used to building at miniscale, so C@C is welcome.

Oooh, great! Looks like a entry from the LDD contest. But did they have space stations in SW?

Thanks, and I believe they had space stations in the CW TV show. I'm not sure what episode though.

If the Death Star isn't a space station, then what is?

And let's not forget that even the prototype for that space station was conceived in a space station.

And there are many more...

That's pretty good! I like it. It reminds me of the Republic medical stations from the Clone Wars TV show:

By the way, what's up with you and SuperKalle having the same avatar?

Not bad looking space station '501st Commando' - I believe that in CW they are used as medical outposts for treating the clones wounded in battle.

Great work and I'm a conformist! '501st Commando' I'm a conformist! !

Cool space station! I like the concept of space stations in Star Wars a lot. How did you get those parts of the station to be rounded like that?

Great mini space station, I especially love the greebs.

I think it's a defualt from Eurorbricks.

Great MOC 501st Commando! The techniques that you employed to create a circular design are very well-executed. It does look like a cross between the Cloud City and the clone medical space station in the CW series. The antenna-less round pieces are very unique details. The mini-Republic cruisers are also very cleverly built - they could even be separate mini-MOCs themselves. Great overall job!

Many 1x2 and 1x4 click hinges.

Yes, it is one from the EB avatar database.

@-Thanks for the great comments everyone!

Wow. This is great! You should try the medical station.

[Admiral Ron]

That looks great! It does indeed look like a cloud city/medical center, now you just need to make a minifig size version

[Mrlegoninja]

Thats cool. I would never think of making something that big in minifigure scale!

Well done, 501st Commando! Really like the shaping and the mini corvettes.
