I am loving all of these chibi models. A set would be fun to make.
-
D'awww look at the little fella.
-
Lookin' good Beaver. I hope you make more!

I don't see any problem with the color scheme. I am sure they come in various colors, and when I google the landspeeder, I see multiple models in the color scheme you chose. If you are going off the model below, the only thing I can see somewhat off is the white bricks you chose in the front. I understand what you were trying to recreate. Maybe remove the black nose and make the sloped pieces next to them white instead? Or maybe make the whole thing black? I don't know, I really can't argue with the color scheme you used. That being said, I would like to see a white/gray with yellow accents like in ANH! Also, if you did go off this model, what about the side by side cockpit? As for the windshield, it is slightly different with your slop being slightly more curved, but no where near enough to have to change the design. I think it is pretty perfect as is.

I love it. Very well done and clean. Immediately recognizable as the V-35 Landspeeder. Kudos!

So if the UCS size is too big for minifigs, does that mean that the astromech is bigger in the UCS? Or is the astromech not to scale?
-
Thank you for the replies thus far, I really appreciate it guys! Is there a difference between System Scale and Minifig Scale? I keep reading that Psiaki's is Minifig Scale, but TLG ones (minus the UCS) are System Scale.

So I think that I am going to take the plunge and buy a X-wing. It was my favorite since I was a kid, I have built the mini that I MOCed, now I am ready for a larger one. On to the question, and maybe this has been asked a hundred times. Which is the best? There are two UCS models, a handful of system scales, then you have outside designs like Psiaki's. I am looking more for viewing and less for playing. My hours of going blind looking at the internet has me to believe that the latest UCS and Psiaki's models are the best, but I wanted to hear from the professional LSW collector's here. I also want to apologize for the lower case LEGO in the title. I know that might be driving people nuts. I wrote this on my cell phone while cooking dinner for me and my daughter and missed it before posting.

I that the color of the wings is fine. I think your slopes from the wing to the body are too thin? I can't really tell with the angles of your pictures. I do agree that you need some lime green up front. IMO it just makes the build!

[WIP] Movie accurate cantina at full minifigure scale
DonBrizzel replied to TheBear's topic in LEGO Star Wars
The attention to detail in the characters is what makes this special in my eyes. Very nice work! -
That B-wing is brilliant!!
-
I will buy a red and orange flex tube as well then when I Bricklink this. Thanks for the tip!
-
Would cutting up the flex tube be considered an illegal connection?

[Review] The Millennium Falcon Microfighter
DonBrizzel replied to DarthYannick's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Are you replacing the middle turret? -
Thoughts on this weapon system?
-
I did the bley peg. Looks okaaaay, not great. Any ideas? Maybe redo the entire gun? I can't really think of any parts to use.
-
I understand what you are saying. But, unlike your mini a-wing, I could not find the red peg on LDD, also could not find the red peg on brickset. I was going to use a white car and the red peg, but the damn red peg was nowhere to be found. What I used was a red flick missile, so I had to cover up some of the red. Maybe some other suggestions on what I can use to make the guns better?
-
Okay, so I think I managed to make the updates needed to so that I can order all of the parts. Thoughts on it?
-
That was the plan.
-
I found a work around for the flick missle, and I think I am going to use the 1x2 bley technic arm. The problem with the 2x2 round brick is that I only used 2 2x2 round plates so it will make the engines longer and I don't know how it will make the ship look. As for the neon green, I am going to try the radar dish tonight when I get home.
-
The bricks that are not in the correct colors are: The trans neon green 2x2 round plate The dark red 2x2 round plate The technic 1x2 Arm in white The flick missle in black I checked brickset as well and these bricks do not seems to come in these colors.
-
I have a question. I just tried to bricklink this guy, but about 5 of the pieces do not come in the color that the LDD says they are. This a common occurrence?
-
Very nicely done. Proportions look right, and you've managed to capture all the essential details.
-
I actually like this vessel. Good luck building it!!
-
I look at this thread every day at least once a day. I need this build in my life.
