Just realized I left 2 out, I don't know how I missed them.

I have a couple of favorites, the first is the pink and gray, That was made specifically for my R2-KT figure I got a couple of years ago that was a special run that part of it went to charity. If anyone knows about the R2-KT figure you know what I'm talking about. The 2nd favorite it my Ahsoka ETA-2, its mostly all dark red but I'm really proud of the work I put into the sticker sheet for that particular one. It took me almost 6 hours in photoshop to create the sticker sheet.

Decided to finally post all my Jedi Interceptor ETA-2 mods. All were made from either Set 75135, but most were made from set 75281. All the stickers you see were created by me using photoshop.

[MOD] Jabba's Sail Barge 75020/6210 The Best of Both Worlds
carnage717 replied to carnage717's topic in LEGO Star Wars
The only parts from 6210 are the 7 front bow pieces and the sails. The upper deck is also wider. It's not even close to 6210. -
Finally got my brick orders in today and put mine together. I'm still waiting on the half round tile pieces for the consoles and Hair for the han solo stormtrooper.

I've thought about extending them further back another 4 or 6 studs but to do that I'm going to have to order some more hinge pieces to reinforce the back part of the wings
-
I ended up having to Bricklink the bombing section which is bascially another Tie striker cockpit piece minus all the stuff on the inside. In reality its basically sqaure box with Curved panels attached to each side and top. The top is 2x4 Curved slopes and the sides are made up fo 2x3 and 1x3 curved slopes attached to brackets on each side. To extend the wings you just need add 4x4 Black plates to each section on both sides at the back and then some wedge plates to fill in the gaps.

Its actually the exhaust sticker from Vaders Tie Advanced set.

Here is one of my newest MOC's a Tie Bomber. This is sort of a Hybrid between the Cockpit of the Tie Striker and the Panel off of Vader's Advanced Tie. I kept the basic construction of the orginal cockpit from the Tie striker and got rid of all the mechanical parts that raised the wings. To made the Bomber section I just kept the similar structure of the Cockpit and tried to round it out more. For the wings I I used the a set of wings off of the Advanced tie and lengthened them by 4 studs to make them a little longer. I tried to finish it out with a little greebling around the ship and I'm very happy with how it turned out.

You could always just wipe the current one off and see if someone can make you decal with the correct bars and colors.

Don't forget the ridiculous cannon in the front of the Newest Jabba's sail barge.
-
I would love to get one for the Millennium Falcon as well. They use the 75105 model a few times but there's a bigger version they use as well. It sort of gives me hope that we might get it in a UCS Set if someone has worked hard enough to build in digital form.

[MOD] Star Wars Rebel's McQuarrie Prototype A-wing Set#75150
carnage717 replied to carnage717's topic in LEGO Star Wars
I thought about putting a set of just Light Gray engines on it, instead of the Light Blue Gray to give it some contrast similar to the prototype pic. The light gray ones have a slight tanish tinge to them which might capture the look better. I had the tan ones on there when I started but I thought they looked to dark compared to the McQuarrie pic. -
This another redesign I did of Set 75150. This one is based off the McQuarrie Prototype in its blue and grey colors. As you can see I completely re-did the front end removing the missile shooters so I could add the long sloped pieces that give it a nice rounded look. I swapped out all the green pieces for blue colors and tried to match the back of the cockpit but going with blue and white colors. To finish it off I made a custom set of stickers for it in Photoshop, the white triangle, red stripes and red circles, the sticker on the back of the cockpit and some new stickers for the new winglet pieces to give some detail. I also added an extra layer of wedge plates to bulk up the side of the A-wing and to give the middle part a little more depth. I aslo removed that annoying 2x4 slope on each side and replaced with wiht 2x4 Slope. I also bought myself a set of Blue Cyliner Engines in case I ever get tired of the gray ones, I can swap them out for the blue ones to give it more color.

Opinion of Modding / changing / whatever-ing Old sets
carnage717 replied to Awkwardfryingpan's topic in LEGO Star Wars
I do this all the time, If I remove any parts I just put them on a baggie and label it with the set number. That way if i plan on selling it later I can just switch the parts back. -
[MOD] Lego A-wing from Set 75150 in Return of the Jedi Colors
carnage717 replied to carnage717's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Ill take some pictures of the underside later tonight and post them. The only substitutions I made were two inverted 4x1 curved sloped pieces on the underside of the front because they don't come in dark red, I replaced them 3x1 inverted slopes. I replaced the 4x4 Modified tile with four 1x4 dark red tiles, The do make a 4x4 modified tile in dark red but it only comes in one set 4482 AT-TE walker and they hard to find on bricklink. I replaced the 10 x 3 wedges left and right and 2x4 dark blue grey slopes with 12 x 3 Wedge, I think the larger wedge looks better than the 10x3 and 2x4 combined. Other than that I think it was basically swapping out part for part with white or dark red. I'm planning on working on Star Wars Rebels Ralph McQuarrie Prototype A-wing this weekend and I have some parts ordered coming in today or tomorrow. If I can Ill try to take a pic of some of the parts I ordered for the middles sections, I just swapped out blue parts for the dark red parts. It is just as sound structurally as the original model the few substitutions don't affect it one bit. -
Here is a little something I came up with using some extra parts I had laying around and a little bit of photoshop time. I re-did the front a little bit because I didn't have a 4x4 Modified Tile to replace the gray one. I also added another layer of wedge plates on each side to bulk it up a little more. Since the wing pieces are brand new and only come in the light blue grey. I just whipped up some stickers in photoshop to put on them. As soon as I get time to print another set out I'm going to sticker the insides of all the winglets as well.

I prefer 75149 for several reason, First better mini- figure selection, I prefer the Lor San and Flamethrower trooper over an extra X-wing Pilot and Mechanic from 75102. Second is the color scheme. I prefer the more traditional X-wing colors to the Black and Orange version. The builds are very similar so that really is a moot point for both. I know this is sort of weird way of looking it at but I think the 75149 would be considered Poe's real X-wing because he was using it at the begging of the movie. The only reason he has the 75102 is because his original got destroyed.

Post your general LEGO Star Wars questions here
carnage717 replied to XimenaPaulina's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Heres a copy of my multi colored Interceptor fleet made from 75135 including my yellow one. All have been modded to fix the cockpit, covered the technic holes in the front and wedge modifications and engine extensions. They all have custom stickers made my me as well. The purle and orange one are just waiting on wings to finish them off. -
Post your general LEGO Star Wars questions here
carnage717 replied to XimenaPaulina's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Here is a pic of what he's talking about. Based on the pieces by the hand and the stickered piece just above the knuckle on the hand it does look a yellowed version of 75135. That picture is what got me started on my variant colors for 75135. So far I have a dark red (Obi Wan), yellow (Anakin), green (Anakin), blue/white(Obi Wan), Orange/Red (Ashoka), Purple (Mace Windu) and Black (Vader) I was curious so I downloaded the app. You can indeed build a yellow version of the 75135 in the app. Its pretty cool. you can come with some crazy combinations. I started out with Tie fighter core and built a pretty cool ship using the app. -
Custom 7661 Hyperdrive Ring w/ 75135 Interceptor combination
carnage717 replied to carnage717's topic in LEGO Star Wars
The ring section is untouched, its exactly as its assembled in the instructions. The Interceptor is a recolored 75135 interceptor. If you have a 75135 and want to add it to your ring I can take a couple of pictured to the bottom for you to see what I modded. -
