AwesomeBantha Posted July 22, 2014 Whoa, Vitreolum, what an amazing MOC! This is just screaming STEAMPUNK! I especially like the color combination-metalic-silver, gold, brown, tan, dark red, is excellent! There is just so much awesome to this creation that I am literally lost for words. I wish you good luck in the FBTB competition-you get my vote ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Brickalot Posted July 22, 2014 (edited) I'd just like to echo what AwesomeBantha said, this thing is immense! Edited July 22, 2014 by Sir Brickalot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Godtshep Posted July 22, 2014 Great! The pearl gold looks marvelous! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vitreolum Posted July 22, 2014 (edited) Whoa, thanks guys, this is a real confidence booster as I'm not yet sure how happy I am with this. PS: I wanted to add cannons but the mixels joints I used to hold the wings would not support the extra weight. Edited July 22, 2014 by vitreolum Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robianco Posted July 22, 2014 I'm not sure this needs anything extra! Lovely build... totally original take on the X-Wing and a genuinely lovely thing to look at. Now I want to see Silk Leader's Y-Wing! ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yzalirk Posted July 22, 2014 This could certainly pass for a Steampunk aircraft due to the amazing color scheme. As always, vitreolum, another great MOC, well done! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-Horizon- Posted July 22, 2014 Looks great, but for me the Wings don't scream X-wing. With the title I can see how it's an X-Wing, but without them I wouldn't think of it as an X-wing. If the wings were flatter I think it would look a bit more like an X-Wing, but a great Steampunk model none the less. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The thing literally has wings shaped like a X Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blackice200 Posted July 23, 2014 (edited) Are the lower wings made from the overhang in 7571? On another hand, amazing MOC! Edited July 23, 2014 by Blackice200 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vitreolum Posted July 24, 2014 Thanks! No, the wings are the small cloth parts from 4195. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrickCommander Posted July 24, 2014 Doesn't look Star Wars-y to me. I'm confused. Did you post in the wrong forum? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robianco Posted July 24, 2014 Doesn't look Star Wars-y to me. I'm confused. Did you post in the wrong forum? It's a steampunk X-Wing... that's Star Wars-y enough for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
