  1. Thanks. It's just some picture composition, I put the screenshot of the models before a background and add the alien conquest logo. B51 "Watchbird" bomber / assist aircraft "The B51 "Watchbird" is an assist aircraft, acting as a relay between the command center and F51 squadrons, and providing them with radar informations. It is also a bomber as it carries some long range guided missiles and a heavy bomb that could be used against large objectives." LXF file
  2. At some time you need to end that phase... I wish I could brickbuild them... But I used only bricks available, so it should be possible to. Thanks. The presentation is quite simple, and I'm sorry I couldn't do nice render in POV-Ray The squid saucer is really a rehash of the original set, with tentacles instead of the mechanical arm. Oh and I didn't mention it, but the outer ring can rotate, while the "cockpit" and the underside stay put
  3. All terrain mobile DCA unit "The mobile DCA unit was created to assure the deployement of anti-aircraft defense wherever needed. When in position, it acts as a turret with it's two heavy canons. It is also capable to fire long range missiles, guided by laser marker from the infantery or F51 squadrons." LXF file
  4. I want a stormtrooper so badly... Anyway I'll join the rebel forces as a B-wing pilot
  5. Alien invader "The invader is an evolution of the smallest alien pod. It's really fast with it's three repulsion engines" LXF file
  6. F51 "Lotus" fighter "The F51 fighter, codename Lotus, is the first hybrid aircraft, built with both human and alien technology salvaged after the first invasion in 2011. It is very fast and agile, ideal for tracking and destroying alien ships." LXF file
  7. Flying squid saucer "The flying squid saucer is the dreadfullest ship of the alien fleet. Capable to fly at high speed, it can capture it's enemies with it's four tentacles." LXF file
  8. Congratulation markus1984 !!
  9. I'm currently working on some models inspired by the Alien Conquest theme. What I like about the original AC is the alien heads, the "classic" alien's representation (like the flying saucer, the abduction, etc...) and I tried to keep these elements while building with my style which is so better. The sets I've already built: 99001 Alien pod and ADU attack jetpack Alien invader F51"Lotus" fighter Flying squid saucer B51 "Watchbird" bomber / assist aircraft The harvester All terrain DCA unit 99008 ADU command center All of these, except the ADU command center, are in the "quality and improvement" phase Here is a preview of the Alien invader and the Lotus fighter, and a render of the Flying squid saucer I put on flicker a few days ago.

  10. Awesome Made me wanna watch the film again
  11. Looks great!
  12. I think you'll have to use 58546 or 95188. Some 41751 should work too.
  13. I must say the original doesn't look that bad, I don't know how to say it, but it feels more coherent. Mod C is probably the best, but like you I'll go for the original. I looked at how I did the fins on the awing like ship I built, and adapted it to your model: Jerac A-wing - 1.2 (1) par BobDeQuatre, sur Flickr
  14. Just bougth Yavin, Bespin and Endor for 6,49€ each on legoshop France
  15. Fantastic Awing Concerning the fins, I've come to this, but it needs a flexible tube Jerac A-wing - 1.2 mod par BobDeQuatre, sur Flickr
  16. So you basically you took this season Ferrari F1 and removed the flick-fire wheels Very nice job on keeping the shape, the colors and sponsors
  17. I placed the engines on the inside, it looked more balanced and closer of the original Lego set. Flying squid saucer par BobDeQuatre, sur Flickr On another subject, I think I'll stop working on the Astradea. It's been almost 9 month since I started it, and my computer can't handle the amount of bricks. Today I had to remove all the internal structure to lessen the number of bricks (gained 4000 bricks). If some are interested, I could do a WIP thread about it. I also did some quick renders (click for bigger images): I did some quick renders
  18. You like those turbines don't you?? Well I like them too... good job
  19. I'm actively working to get my best friend's son to Lego... He'll be 3 in two weeks, but I started offering him Duplo since last year. As he loves the Car franchise, it's easy to corrupt him with the duplo Cars sets... Still I fear he might fall to the Playmobil, or even worse, the Megablocks
  20. "in space no one can hear you scream"... even with a megaphone Back on topic, I didn't even know that those sets existed! I left the Lego world just before, the last set I got was the 1999 Lightsaber duel. It's nice to see the "cultural" side of set reviews. And good job getting your hands on those
  21. Just discovered that post... Got the "WIP Advice Jedi " title two weeks ago, but I'm not sure who gave it to me
  22. Untitled13-scrap par BobDeQuatre, sur Flickr I'm playing with the Alien Conquest line, and I got a flying saucer dilemn. As you can see, I've put some of the "engine thingy" on the outside of the ring, and some on the inside. Should I put them all inside? Or outside? Or don't change them?
  23. There seems to be some errors in the instructions, but it's still buildable... And it's an amazing model
