Your design for this is very well done! I could easily see this being in a Star Wars related media.

SB00601 AR-PROJECT (MOC AT-RT 501 version UCS)
sandtrooper replied to StarBricks's topic in LEGO Star Wars
I really enjoyed building it like all of Mirko's designs. Due to the nature of the design, the build is linear from bottom to top. Usually when I build a MOC with large piece count, the pieces are sorted by type of piece and color. For instance if the MOC has a lot of LBG pieces, I will put all of the LBG plates in one group, all of the LBG tiles in another, etc. If there are only a few pieces for a single color, they will be grouped with other colors that have a small number of pieces. For the AR, all of the blue can be grouped together along with the white pieces. Once the pieces are sorted, I like to gather the pieces for a few steps at time, assemble them, pull pieces for the next few steps, assemble to the MOC is complete. -

[MOC] Imperial Star Destroyer - The Eviscerator
sandtrooper replied to 2mpaired's topic in LEGO Star Wars
I'm nearing the end of the build being half-way through Book 7. I just wanted to extend thanks to 2mpaired for such a robust, detailed design. The bridge has been one of my favorite parts due to the cleverness of the design. I really admire the skill required to design MOCs and the dedication to then generate directions. Also wanted to thank rockpig for creating inventories for each instruction book. It made what could have been an overwhelming build much easier to manage.- 169 replies

I just finished building this a couple of weeks ago. I tried the engine intake mod but wasn't able to pull it off. The fan portion was sticking out too far to connect the ring of cheese slopes to the plates with clips. The stand you come up with is really nice as well, bobs_cycle_shop.

I finished the mosaic a couple of days ago. The finished piece is quite striking in person! The layered coloring really adds to the detail of the picture. I have built a lot of MOCs - mainly Star Wars related - and this the first one my wife has been really excited about. As soon as it was finished, she wanted to find a place to hang it up. This has been enough of an inspiration that I would like to start making my own mosaics. Middlebrick if you're willing, I would be grateful for some pointers on how to get started on creating works of art like yours.

I am about to complete a build of this and need some advice. Attaching the engine intakes is about to drive me mad. Do the intakes rest on the Technic pins that stick out or is the back of the intake supposed to butt up to the pins? The weight of the intakes seems too heavy for the support that is supposed to hold them. Thank you.

Hello, I have a previously owned Titanic set on the way. The boxes one and two have been opened, but the third remains sealed. The seller thinks there may be missing pieces. Does anyone know of an online inventory that breaks the set down by box? Otherwise I'll do an inventory of the entire set. Thank you.

The model is excellent! What type of thread do you use for the rigging? Thank you. -
This mosaic really caught my eye! Bought the instructions, so this will be the first Lego mosaic I've ever done. Beautiful work on this!

[MOC] Imperial Star Destroyer - The Eviscerator
sandtrooper replied to 2mpaired's topic in LEGO Star Wars
I received an email that the instructions for this have been updated to version 3.0. Anyone know what changes were made? Also since I just completed an inventory to see what pieces are still missing, I would like to know what changes in the inventory there are. The new instructions are almost a 5 gb download, so haven't finished the download at this time.- 169 replies
