Rayskull

I want detailed pics of the squid skull helmet... I have plans for that I think!

Yeah I've been on strike with trans red, I could change up -soon as I get some. I added teeth recently, it really adds some necessary detail to the front. I'll update soon

The tree looks awesome, like the robot too but he does kinda look naked and alien -I guess thats the point

man I wish I had some of those light tops, awesome ride though

It looks like the best Mech Lego has ever made!

I was going for a very classic look. Please note the ejection system and the landing gear. The interior is lush!

Absolutely love the expression.

It occurred to me that the command skull would need some assistances with on base transportation. I came up with this neat contraption. Note that it does fold up when not in use. I admit the cab could use some work.... Just updated the cab, now its perfect...

At first Iwas really interested in that skull / Squid helmet. Now I'm more interested in whats under it.

Very detailed, love the skull in the hood there

I hope to. I'd probably make the red one, but the other craft would be a devastating hit and run craft.

Have a look! One model is a salvaged command skull. They tend to attack quickly and without regard for their lives.

Awesome, Makes me really want there to be official Warhammer Legosets

where did the design originate? its cool, I like it!

I added some wingman at the bottom and changed the pictures so you can see them better. :^) I think the wingmen are a little silly... anyhoo here are a few prototypes: Much more extreme, maybe even a little demented. Ultimately, I stuck with the classic look.

Good stuff to keep in mind

I think it looks great, lots of opportunity for fun stuff inside. The side panels and front grill are very interesting! Hey but why not smooth out the wingtips with some flat pieces or even rounded pieces. Not an experienced SNOT builder.... Those are pretty advanced techniques!

Look at my avatar, I tried to do the crossbone-thing, I'm sure the whole crossbone-thing has been done better. Fragtechs are basically high powered, concentrated photon particle beamers powered by Necrogen. lol BTW the inside of the Command Skull is very roomy Here's my Brickshelf: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?m=RaySkull

I designed this about a year ago, but I got a bit bored and decided to revisit it. I ended up making it more streamlined (if you could say that). Somewhat simple in appearance I imagine it hovering over the battlefield in a sweeper role; picking out emplacements and absorbing quite a bit of AA. Its heavily armored and shielded. Armed with two heavy fragtek cannons. It has quite a bit of computer tech on board for when it needs to take on a mobile command role. (gasp) No landing gear. The bricks are on the way, can't wait to put it together! :skull: Thanks for having a look

Its old news I think, but yes thats exactly my opinion about non-transparent canopies. If you look at the cross-section you'll see a blue matching computer screen. In my LDD creations, I try to omit all printed pieces. I instead use clear transparent nubs and 2 stud pieces on black, creates a computery look without the printed parts... and has sort of a true lego feel to it at the same time.

I was curious about this, I played a little bit of descent, but its been a while I don't remember these enemies. How does everyone feel about ships without transparent canopies? My best Lego ship ever has no canopy. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/RaySkull...rdefinitive.jpg

it doesn't look like it, but I believe I used close to a hundred cheese wedges. It has engines hatches, comfortable cockpit, landing gear like the others of the line. I tried not to use any curves...mainly since they don't have any blue curvy shapes.

I can't wait to get the parts for this one: I just finished this pic

yeah it looks great, dark green is a little rare... as is a black nights helm

Big and Bold, reminds me of a certain gobots command center
