Good because I thought my “Squidman” Jedi pilot would fly something insectoid like for some reason.

That would be correct on all accounts “Roofus”. ;)

All one color is a little drab. Subtle highlights and neutral colors will give these karts more depth.

Nice job CCXD. Get rid of the brown on the nose and you’ll have a great MOC.
-
Well there’s the obvious praises to be song of your warrior like skills at MOCing but mainly I’m just jealous of your pieces. I want those blue domes! :P
-
Looks like you had a lot fun building these. Time to kick it up a notch and add some amazing details. ;)
-
Yum! Great job on the uniquely shaped back end.

Umm. The sickness is over whelming.

Here's a short video of them locking together.

Well there you have it. Looks like if you go by the % of votes. EB's Standard SWU Module: 32x32 8 Bricks high walls with 1 (plate, tile, plate) between floors (9 bricks total per floor). 8 Studs wide corridor (space between the walls) Then the only thing I'd add is using the 1x1 bricks with technics hole place one stud in. (See example in 16x16 version.) Thus allowing your columns to be narrower. Then if people need/want to modify the "Standard" for a group project they have basis to work from. (I.E. Increase wall height by 1 stud, add decorative corners, etc.)
-
Yeah here's the 16x16. It's just too small for the SWU theme personally.
-
After reading the the comments over in the other the thread the 16x16 might be more reasonable for ALL builders I'll post a new sample for a 16x16 Standard tonight.
-
Excellent argument for keeping it smaller. The nice about making 16x16 to is they still fit with 32x32 model. (4) 16x16's equal (1) 32x32. So 4 builders with (1) 16x16 each could be put together to form a standard model. Here's an excellent example of that: Micro City Standard http://www.reasonablyclever.com/lego/conte...dday/index.html http://twinlug.com/micropolis-micro-city-standard/ However 16x16 is not a lot space to work with. But it could/would work well as you must basic standard.

Remember: Here's quick sample I made on my lunch break. Note I've made it 8 bricks high with 1 brick high between floors you have 9 bricks high. I've included so different ways that specific projects could end their walls too. As far as raised items you simply build the "raised" area the same as you would build the main floor except you would have you first floor(s) made of 9 bricks tall pillars. Gallery
-
You should edit poll to include: Height of floors: 6 bricks (lame personally) 8 bricks (realistic) 10 bricks (grand SWU feel) 12 bricks (too big personally) Also you may want to look at stacking options: 1 brick height between floors (plate, tile, plate). So if you're building a stackable Module the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc. floor(s) would use plates as its base instead of a baseplate.

I think the 48x48 is too large I think that's TLG's XL plate. Building 32x32 allows for simple quadrants too. There's lots of sets that have 16x16 plates. As far as connecting sections I recommend you and that to the poll. Including height of bricks to each floor. For example top and bottom layers (if each floor is 8 studs tall layer 1 and layer 8 have studs.) Have 2x1 bricks with hole, one or two studs in from corners on all corners. That’s 8 per layer or 16 connection points in a standard 32x32 plate. Besides for all of you that support the 48x48. If you just double 48 you have 96 which is 3x 32. So really 32x32 is the best. Becasue if you want, you can use (4) 48x48's that are equal to (9) 32x32's. Also I posted a sample over the Voting thread for this topic. Kim should/can these 2 threads be merged to keep things easiler/all in one thread? Thanks

Well sounds like you’ve hit community gold. I would recommend that this community create a “Create the SWU Standard” thread in which people can post their MOC recommendations for and SWU standard(s). Then the EB community could vote on which makes the most sense/looks best/etc. And run with it. Unless someone can find an already set forth SWU Standard. Also I would recommend that people involved in other forums copy and paste the original question into their communities with intent that persons from those communities could join EuroBricks (if not already members here) to help in the creation and voting of the standard. The quicker the EuroBricks staff move on this the more likely that this forum and the creator of the final EB SWU “standard” would have as becoming not only the EB standard but the larger community’s standard. Like someone already said we would need standards for mainly buildings. Anything else would require slight changes to the “standard” for that specific project. 16x16 or 32x32 plates would make sense. The standard should be the larger of the two with the option to build ¼ standards similar to the Microscale City standard. Details that should be thought about should be: Wall thickness (and shape if any) Placement of doors and hatches Height of walls or floors (I.E. one standard floor being 8 studs tall.) Color sequencing (I.E. Black & Dark Grey = Imperial, White and Red or Tan = Rebel, etc.) Good Luck and Godspeed
