Thats sounds good. I had the same idea and I will do this for the Solo version too. I'm looking forward to updates.

I moved and the shuttle is stored in boxes. I will keep it in mind and take pictures when I put it back on shelf.

I like your idea with the thicker and direction inversion (plates) of the fins. Mybe we have to add more little fins between the rescue capsule and the engine section.

Thanks for the feedback! Its difficult to build a cone shape with bricks in this little dimensions. Maybe I can rise the plates with bows in the middle of the cockpit higher? Yes, printed cones would be so cool. Stickers are a no go for me for these big and important parts. In a view years the stickers peel off and than the over all look from the cockpit is bad. Yes, a cockpit like the UCS version is possible, but I wanted to take off the roof and place some minifigures in the cockpit. I hope I will see more Tantive IV from other forum-users with modifications in this thread.

Since I started LEGO Star Wars in 2015, I wanted to own a Tantive IV. The sets from 2001 and 2009 were far too expensive on the secondary market. That's why I was really happy when a new version was announced. There was a lot of discussion about the set. Everyone had a different expectation. I am glad that it has become an improved version of the 10198. Nevertheless, there were a few things that bother me. The biggest criticism for me is the cockpit. I do not like stickers. In a few years they will take off and then the model looks bad. That's why I built it with bricks. The role model was the @Kit Bricksto UCS Tantive - CR-90 Corvette. More improvements: - Removed the stud shooters!!! - Removed the handle - Colour matching - Facing the bottom with inverted bows - Extension gun turrent on the botton - Radar turett mirrored down - Brickbuilt upper wings between conference section und radar tower My next goal is to change the inside of the cockpit, because at the moment, Captain Antilles can’t sit inside. Maybe you have more ideas for improvements. Then like to post here. Here are the pictures.

Thanks @efferman for the LXF-file. I used it for my Porsche too. But I did another MOD on the front bumper. I changed the position of the 1/4 circle gear rack 11x11 one stud back. Now it looks much better for me. Porsche_Mod_4, on Flickr Porsche_Mod_2, on Flickr The second MOD is the HOG. I transfer the simple steering concept from 42077 and now I can controll my Porsche from the roof. Porsche_Mod_3, on Flickr Porsche_Mod_1, on Flickr

Thanks Daddy_Stardust for your good template. I used some of your MODs for my version of the Imperial Landing Craft. The biggest change I did, is the extension of the middle section by four studs. I simply ad another wall element. The second big change is the tail. I lowered it by one stud. Landingcraft_1, on Flickr Landingcraft_2, on Flickr Landingcraft_4, on Flickr With four more studs in the middle section, you can put a lot of sandtroopers in the Landing Craft. I think I have to buy some more troopers... Landingcraft_5, on Flickr Landingcraft_6, on Flickr

So this is my version of the AT Hauler. It is still WIP - I would like to change some details. 75219 AT Hauler MOD (front view), on Flickr I widened the section under the cockpit by four studs. The support arms are also extended by four studs. I removed the steering wheel and installed the round plates/disc and add a bigger technic panel. Now for me it looks better in the porportions.

Thanks for your Feedback. Yes the sensor (or deflector?) is a little bit to high and not perpendicular. Maybe I can change it. It's not so easy in this scale. Also thanks for your Feedback. The answer from krisandkris 12 is correct. These engines in light gray costs 12$/10EUR per piece on bricklink. Maybe I change them from to dark gray. Your suggestion with a brick built version is also a good idea. More pics will follow!

Hello everybody! This is my version of the 75055 Lego Star Destroyer. SD_1, on Flickr I know there are many fantastic models from the Imperial Star Destroyers in this forum, such as Raskolnikov's ISD Aggressor. Unfortunately I do not have the space (and money) for such a big model. My goal was to make this ship a little bigger and keep the playability of the set. So I enlarge the original version of the size of the Lego Imperial Star Destroyer 6211 from 2006. The construction is similar to the original construction of 75055. You can just put it on the table and open the panel easily. I mainly used parts from the set 75190. Due to the weight I had to stiffen the underbody with long technic bricks and wedge plates. SD_2, on Flickr SD_3, on Flickr SD_4, on Flickr SD_5, on Flickr SD_6, on Flickr My model will also feature an interior. More pics will follow soon. What do you think about that? MAG85

Really nice Hammerhead Corvette. I think I will do the same in the future but with different colors - red and white/grey could also look good.

Hi D-Train, sorry for my late replay. I have no instructions for my build. I took the part list an from the frist Milano (76021) and orded some parts that where missing in the second Milano (76081). Most of the build is the frist version with some color changes, only the wings are brick build mods (picture 'Milano_3') because of the missing technic panals in silver grey. Its very simple. For the new cockpit disc I also changed same parts in the cockpit area. If your question is current than I can make some more pictures. Greetings MAG85

RC Trabant 601
MAG85 replied to Mr Smith LEGO Models's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
This is a really nice Trabant - good job! A view years ago, I had the chance to drive a Trabant. With only 26 HP it was a fun ride. -
Hallo Eurobricks! Because of my dark ages I missed the great Milano 76021 set. So I bought the second Milano 76081 and rebuild it like the first Milano. I also did some modifications like the color theme, used the new canopy and the small wings are in brick build because of the missing panels. I hope you like it and comments are welcome.
