[UCS] [WIP] [MOC] Venator Class Star Destroyer
Hold0511 replied to Ellisss_2's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Exciting...looking forward to making this beast. -

Awesome - UK P&B also so order placed. Thanks Daphatty

Post your general LEGO Star Wars questions here
Hold0511 replied to XimenaPaulina's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Yup its 2 years. If you get close your points expiring Lego usually email you a reminder. Saying that they don't tell you how many points are expiring if you have points that are within the 2 years and 'safe'. You have to work it out yourself from your order history. Not an issue if your going to use up all your balance, but a pain if not. I did this the Xmas before last and it was fine as I had ordered and used my points prior to the expiry date (Boxing Day sale I think), with the set arriving about the second week of Jan. -
Hi Jens, Small amount of Brasso and a nice soft cloth works a treat. Don't rub to hard and the paint comes off quite quickly. It did not harm the transparent part - in fact it came out sparkling at the end, but that was me being careful to use a good quality soft cloth so as not to 'polish in' any grit/small particles which would mark the plastic. I have a number of UCS sets and SW MOCs and Anio's A-wing remains my pride and joy!

[PRESS RELEASE] 75192 - UCS Millennium Falcon 2017

UK email to Lego VIPs Now Back in Stock >>Thanks for signing up to be notified about the Millennium Falcon™ coming back into stock. We've just received a new shipment and the item is available online. If you wish to check in-store availability, please call your local store. -
Excellent - we can't have too many beat up Y-wings around - welcome to the clan, it looks grand.

I have have used the paint successfully even on rebuilds or when making changes - with the right number of coats & finish it should fit well with the other lego pieces and survive some use. Understandably if your using a darker base colour to start with as your base piece it will take more coats to get right or do as I did and use an undercoat. The dark red paint took less to finish.
-
I used white and dark red Plasti-kote spray paint in the satin finish - a few coats and it works a treat.

Looks good - I'm happy with the level of studs you have tbh - this would look cracking with a decent stand on the other side of my B-Wing...

Yup can see them now. I had the same problem with my UCS Clone Wars Y-wing - I had a bigger and hence more delicate version of your left build. In the end I went down the middle path - it was easier to shape as the engine is 8x8 v's 4x4 but the same comprimise. It was easier on the Y-wing as I used slopes and not the gill pieces.

Awesome - can't wait to put two of these (gotta have a yellow and red version) either side of your A-Wing (which is still my favourite MOC).

Sign me up for a set of instructions please Anio when they are ready...

[UCS] [WIP] [MOC] Venator Class Star Destroyer

Looking sweet - can't wait for the instructions - this is so going to be my next big build. -
Nope sorry can't see the images - as above try using a different host.

[PRESS RELEASE] 75192 - UCS Millennium Falcon 2017
Hold0511 replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Wow, just checking now there are three of the cockpit radar dishes available for £40 to £70.....so I hope that comes through for you. -
All done - she looks fab - even if I somehow ordered the smaller wheels for the engines in DBG rather than black....hey ho. Great build, really enjoyed it. Minor points as per previous post on the viability of the smaller silver/light grey elements and some slight re-jigging but its nothing you don't figure out as you go. Has to be one of my all time two best builds - this is up level with Anio's A-Wing as the two best SW Lego MOCs... Fabulous!!!

[MOC] Mods to sets 75101 FO Tie Fighter & 75155 U-Wing
Hold0511 replied to Spacebrick's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Only the original U-wing picture is showing for me. -
That's so funny... Still, I guess if I had the spare cash I'd probably want to make the most of buying the big beast...personally I'll wait till the fuss dies down and try to pick one up over the next year or so when there is a VIP points promo on.

Looks good - I'd happily add some of those into my A wing fleet. Are you going to build a brick version yourself?
