  1. Hello everyone, My name is Caleb, this is my first post in the technic forum because I am mostly in the Star Wars forum. I am kind of new to mechanics, as I have only been really getting into them this past year. I have here a MOC I have completed many months ago, but have been keeping it in hiding (I am not sure why?) I doubt anyone on here has came across it on Youtube, so I thought I would share. Any who, I have seen many people stick a motor inside many walkers like this. Some are very good, while some are very bad... While I know mine may not be the best, I think it is pretty good, and was wondering what you guys think. Keep in mind, I have set limitations for myself on how to construct this. 1. It had to look exactly like LEGO's on the outside 2. I had to fit the motor and battery inside seamlessly 3. I had to use most of the pieces already in the set (meaning I couldn't use technic beams to construct a better frame.) With this in mind, the walker does move a little slow and lacks a little bit of power it would need to walk on rougher surfaces, but it's still a solid walker. I know this is not best one out there, but let me know what you guys think! And before anyone asks, No I do not have instructions nor anything to show you how I made this. (yet)

  3. Thanks Renegade, I don't remember whether I started this MOC before or after I saw yours, but I do know I used your model as reference for some aspects of the ship. I do think yours, (though slightly too big,) is great! especially all the small detail. Thanks Markus! At least the new TLC set resembles more that of a B-wing compared to the previous two, Though it is still missing some crucial detail, and what bugs me the most is that it is not symmetrical. Why don't they they borrow the techniques from the UCS version and scale it down and make a nice model?
  4. Oh! Sorry or misinterpreting that. In that case, double thanks!
  5. You Can't expect anything but Technic from Mahjqa. Awesome! I think he created a new theme!
  6. Thanks for the Honest feedback! I know the wings aren't perfect but they complete the look of it. Especially for limited amount of bricks I had. Ya, the cockpit is not perfect, but the B-wing cockpit itself is a hard thing to manipulate with LEGO. If only they made 6x6 cone piece, similar to that of the Millennium Falcons, that would be perfect. Thanks Doc! I agree this thing would look a lot better with SNOT, but maybe a bit less stable, depends how you approach it I guess :) I am sorry, I do not at the moment. But I am sure you could figure out most of it yourself! The engine and the Tail gun may be a little tricky, also, If you look at my gallery, I did do a break down of the cockpit, if that helps. ;) Thanks! I wish I had money for it :( Thanks The Bear. I agree the engines are way too small. I am not completely satisfied with them either, just something to complete the model. And you are right! Tyler may have gave me some inspiration from his cockpit. The stickers do help, I may make my own when I get time and sticker paper.. I will admit, his is very impressive, I could not figure out how he attached it all together. So I made my own, and glad I did, those 1x4 slopes are awesome!
  7. Hello everyone, My name is Caleb a.k.a. Smitty500, and.. This is my first comment ever on Eurobricks. I wanted to share with everyone here, who has not already seen it yet, my latest MOC, the B-Wing. This MOC dates back to about 2012, I had the second incarnation 6208 B-wing, but was unhappy with how asymmetrical it was (especially the tail). I had a ton of grey 3x12 pieces, to make my own, and so I did. It never got any further than that, until recently when I decided to finish it. I wanted to complete it before LEGO had released their newer version.
