I am sure many of you have been wondering what it is I do in my spare time when I’m not ranting about TIE Avengers, glazing Green Lantern or complaining about Smart Play. Today I give you the answer. I have been gradually working on this fella for 1.5 years now, and i’m nowhere near finished. But as some of ya’ll have requested a look, i’m going to give just that. I thank the many of you who expressed interest in seeing this, even in its unrefined state. Without much further ado let’s get started. Ah yes. The simple Moff Gideon’s bunker. One of the best sets of 2024. Worthy of its own thread by itself. But wait, there’s more! Much more. Inspired by modular buildings, there are currently 3 plate components. With 4 more 16x32 plates planned to be added in order to eventually accommodate a landing pad. The forward module is a 32x32 plate. Including the base’s main infantry gate, a speeder maintenance bay, an armoury, heavy blast door and the forward halves of the two infantry barracks. The advent of the new speederbike design from the AT AT and assumably in the 2027 Endor BP is a happy coincidence as it will fit much better into the maintenance bay than the 2022 variant. The forward armoury can accommodate 19 blasters and a mortar. While providing ample space for a walkway around the weapon racks. The 2 barracks are both capable of housing a 8 man squad. (Note that this image is with the modular components split.) I plan on building another 8 man barracks for techs and pilots in future. Here is the other side with connection points. This is the start of the first 48x48 plate. With a lovely hallway. Obligatory hallway scene photo Apart from the trooper barracks’ continuation, on the right side of the 2nd baseplate we have the NCO/ junior officer barracks. The perks of this smaller barracks are 2 beds rather than 8 and equipment/ personal belongings drawers. The idea is that this houses the commanders of the normal barracks’ squads. This general here is out of place as Lego still is yet to make an accessible Lieutenant. And the actual officers’ quarters will be on a higher level when I get around to it, On the left side of the corridor we have a supply closet. And in here you can see Cassian monologuing To steal from the Empire? What do you need? A uniform, some dirty hands and an Imperial tool kit. They're so proud of themselves, they don't even care. They're so fat and satisfied, they can't imagine it. Here we have a view of how the corridor intersects left and right just before the detention block’s blast door. You can see a security checkpoint console where the two corridors intersect. Here is a bird’s eye view of how it intersects. Also note, a 2nd armoury in the top left, which will double as the vehicle hangar guard room. Here is the mess hall. This is largely a self service food system (empire doesn’t have the budget for a chef because they need 2 death stars), with the room being equipped with a microwave, water tap and food crate. I may build another in future due to the size of the base’s planned garrison. But for now this is the only one. Oh and @THELEGOBATMAN, I hope you will enjoy this pic of Dedra tolerating a BLT. Across the hall from the mess we have the stairwell (in progress). The stairs’ actual design draws inspiration from the 2015 Battlefront Sullust AT AT hangar map. I’m hoping those who know ball can see what I mean. Same stairs/ mess section but with blast doors slid shut. (Fully retractable) You may be able to notice the two variations of blast door. Heavy (2 stud width) and standard (1 stud width) the heavy blast doors are used to lockdown the sectors closest to the base’s entry points. The heavy door towards the back of the image seals off the hangar from the rest of the base. The standard blast doors are just to lockdown base sectors towards the interior. The hangar is under development. But as you can see, it will be housing speeders and smaller patrol vessels. The eventual landing pad will be for TIEs and shuttles. And just to finish off, here’s a back shot of the detention block’s foundations. Currently formatted to 4 cells, I might add another row. Depends how much space the landing pad maintenance elevator takes up tbh. This project was started as a way to use up loose parts, but I have been pick a bricking many more parts to make it work. Funny isn’t it? Thanks for reading. Any questions?

Today, I'd like to share a little interior of an imperial command center that I built for the SW Factions RPG. The command center has been features multiple times in my continuous comic story around the Episode we had running until recently - the Gyndine Crisis. Here are a few close-ups that were also featured in my comic. Lord Commander Vonreg is disatisfied. Comic chapters featuring the build: https://swfactions.net/community/season-iii/episode-v-nro12-reytha-nr3f-defiance-on-reytha/ https://swfactions.net/community/season-iii/episode-v-iro12-gyndine-fz-vonreg-legacy/

Let's start the year with another classic ship from the Star Wars Rebels series: here is my take on the Arquitens-class command cruiser, in Midi-Scale. This compact model consists of 845 parts, making it a pretty dense and intricate build for its size. I went with my usual SNOT approach here, just as I would on larger builds. Fortunately, the ship’s angles (especially in the rear section) were forgiving enough that I didn’t need any wedge plates, which allowed me to go full SNOT on the entire hull. One of the most enjoyable parts of this design was the rear section: recreating the angled superstructure that covers the engine array and incorporating greebles in the back was a top priority for this model. Once I had that portion solved, along with the design for the wing trenches, the rest of the ship came together naturally. The removable stand can be modified to be taller in case you want to display the Arquitens next to bigger models. It's quick and straightforward to put together, making it a fun and satisfying build. ► Instructions for the Arquitens are available at BrickVault! More pictures on my Flickr page.

That last mission was really hard for Mads. It was his first without his friends. Now he was sent to find them and get them with him to the base. There will they get further orders. Please, judge this freebuild.

Happy New Year everyone. Here is something I built following the release of Rogue one. I hope you enjoy watching it as much as I enjoyed building it.

Shadows of Nar Eurbrikka; Episode XII: Stopping by Location: Kuat Time: 10 am Persons involved: Mads Heering; Stormtrooper Orwell Haggins; Stormtrooper Cornell Haggins; Stormtrooper The story: Three stormtroopers, Mads Heering the driver, Orwell Haggins the navigator and Cornell Haggins the gunner were driving through the wastelands of Kuat when they received a new message. They have to stop by at the nearest base, where they would search for clues. If they find anything suspicious, they have to report it to the base. What are we doing here? I thought we were leaving Felucia. Not yet. Something went wrong in the space and now we're searching for clues. What exactly do we have to do? I'm not sure ... Sgt. Wunderkind said we must report if we find something suspicious. What does suspicious means? ... ... It sounds nice though ... Conclusion: My first episode! I'm very excited to be part of it and part of the SoNE itself. I can't wait to see more entries. Please tell me your opinion and thanks for watching!

There are many AT-AT mocs. Many with great interiors. Many with great exteriors. This is my attempt at integrating both into one model. The model is minifig scale, has at least 6000 thousand pieces and stands two feet tall. It is stable enough to be picked up and moved.

Check my flickr for progress photos starting from the first LDD files. Special thanks to Cavegod and LILmeFromDaFuture. I got a lot of inspiration from their models/techniques. Let me know what you guys think. Sorry for the cell phone quality pictures. Would buy new camera but can't stop spending money on lego parts ;). I'm considering distributing/selling the LDD files for this model if there's interest. They do need some refinements, however.

A small model I whipped up in LDD in the timespace of about 25 minutes. Based on the Eclipse Dreadnought used by the Empire around six years after the Battle of Endor. Comments? Suggestions?

Hello guys , I am currently working on an X-Wing moc. The focus is to get it as close to the movie version as possible ( while strictly keeping it minifig-scaled ) , without caring about action-features , play value/"swooshability" etc . While waiting for a couple of Bricklink orders , I decided to post some WIP photos of what I have so far . Do have in mind that many of the parts' colours are substitutes while waiting for the correct coloured ones ( such as the brown nose and every white piece in there ) . Lastly , I 've decided to go with light bluish grey and not white for the main colour . I know this debate has been going on forever , and fully respect the people who want it white , but for me light bluish grey not only represents the actual colour a bit better , but also provides that battle damaged - real world and not CGI feel that I love about the original trilogy ( it's a real, living world , with real vehicles and that sets it apart as the best in the sci-fi genre , imo at least ). Anyway , enough indirect prequel shots fired , here are some pictures , please share your opinions and/or suggestions (sorry about the medium-low level quality , a friend borrowed my camera so I had to make do with my phone ) . There's also and LDD file I made which I'm attaching , it's not quite the whole thing , it's more of a sketch-up of how it's going to look without caring about how everything will connect ( as it is better to find that out when physically building it , when illegal and unorthodox connection techniques can be used ) , so have a look there , as there's much more than I've shown built in the photos above ( almost the whole thing , or at least the first version of it ) . Finally , note that there's going to be a "88295" part (http://www.bricklink...colorID=66&in=A) stuck on the "85861" parts on each of the four laser-canons , they're just not available in LDD so I couldn't show it there . Please share your opinion , recommendation or any other type of feedback guys , I really need it and will truly appreciate it . Thanks for looking !

Personnel Files: Previously, https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/148348-sone-ep-xiv-muunilinst-family/.... Currently, on the Forest Moon of Endor... Skrogging mountainside! No shade and no cover! There's a lone tree up ahead. We could take a breather there. Alright, Razer Losers, you heard "Fiend"! Let's take five under that tree! Comments and criticisms are all welcome!

We want to move right to collect the bonus on R22 and go back to Q19. Previous: We don't have much information about the status about the rebels, but our intelligencerepurted that they're near to reach the shield generator. So we're trying to move faster. Our team just reached an unexpected obstacle... TG-0222 - Sir, It looks like our intel was inaccurate. This mountain should be further. Shock Trooper - Yes, it should, but we could find a safe path to move cross. BN-0303 - Sir, I just received an incoming message: All the troops have to turn back and move back to the Generator on the easiest way. Shock Trooper - In that case, let's see the map.
-
Movement: We would like to move toward the bonus on R-22. For our first move, we'll move through two revealed squares to end up on R20. For our second move, I'm not sure if we can get to R22, since R21 is already revealed. If not, we'll end on R21. Pfilbee Jhorn, oh Pfilbee Jhorn, you came, you saw, you failed to warn! If I live through this tour, I’ll find you someday, you’d best watch your back when the drums start to play! -The Ballad of Pfilbee Jhorn, written by an unknown Scout Trooper stationed on Endor, 4 ABY We live off the land as much as possible, but there are some things that can't be gleaned or grown. When the time comes, every week or two, we load up the "bantha" with fruits and greens to trade, and make the trek to Firebase Pfilbee. The troopers there are happy to trade extra fuel and supplies for anything that makes the Imp Standard Rations more palatable. We also exchange news, and revel in the feeling of safety that comes from being surrounded by duracrete walls and fixed E-webs. The visits always seem to end too soon, but we know not to linger. It's unwise to be out in the open after dark. ------------------------------ Overall build: Base Details: The "Bantha" : -
Movement all to the right We just delivered Luke to the main base, and were heading to the shield generator and decided it was getting late to we set up a small camp. I woke up a little early so I went to check out if there was anyone or anything else near. Snip I first thought they were they were other Stormtroopers, but then I realized it was my brother and girlfriend in disguise. "I thought you died on Alderaann? how did you two survive? (Female Rebel) "We heard Leia's ship was destroyed so we went to investigate it,on are way back we heard it blew up so we joined the Rebels" (Male Rebel) "how did you stay with the Empire thinking they killed us? "When I lost you I still had friends in the Empire, they were the only family I had left" (Female Rebel) "What happened to them?" "One died taking a ship called Saber, and the other died on a beach a few days ago" (Female Rebel) "Oh, I'm sorry Charlie" "Where did you get those outfits from?" (Male Rebel) "Nowhere.." Looks around, sees two crashed speeder bikes, two dead biker scout helmets, and a Officer hanging from a tree. "Right..." Suddenly I hear the other troops in my squad coming (Female Rebel,) "Come on Charlie! We have to go!" "I can't, shoot me in the leg and run!" As the troopers walk in they look around (other troop) "What happened?" (me) "I woke up to shots, so I came here, by the time I arrived the others were dead, they shot me then left right before you came" (me) "speaking of that, why did you come?" (other troop) "This trooper right here(points to a man on his right) was searching the forest when he heard two rebels, one unidentified commander and private Johnson, are bring detonators to a small force to destroy our Hellfire turret. What should we do?" (me) We set a trap that's what we do! All troops prepare to move out! Now! My camera died!After I got up half of them, I hope judges dont mind but in 20ish minutes my build will be posted. But most photos are up. I spent for ever changing the text to words and they change back, and now I cant find a charger! Just Judge it. -
We want to move right and up to collect the bonus on P14. Ep1 Ep2 Ep3 Ep4 Ep5 Ep6 Ep7 As the search any switch to shut down the forcefield lasts for a long time, the movements of our troops getting less week by week. Our squad, as others are getting tired and can't move forward as much as required. We are passing through forests and plains for weeks with, but it's racing with time and the enemy.
-
Movements: We want move left to Q9, than up to F9, go left to collect the bonus on F2 and use the remaining movements to go as close as possible to the Shield Generator. "It really wasn't my fault. My squad was on long range recon and they told me to find some supper. I was out for hours before I happened upon this great, fat wild boar. Only it wasn't a boar. Just a piglet. And after we cooked it up and the squad had their fill, the sounder came around looking for revenge. There's only two of us now, but it doesn't look like it'll stay that way for long. Lucky for me the other guys didn't let me eat yet, so I've been a lot faster on my feet. Right now I'm not sure which is going to be worse - this mad momma pig or reporting back to the platoon. I guess we'll see. :(" Endor Boar-Wolf by Ryan McBryde, on Flickr

We want to move right to collect the bonus on G13 and than on D19. Our squad have find and followed a path trough pains, to cut off the road. We need to be careful, because these paths are used the native ewoks and if we meet them they could pull back us... BN-0303 - Sir, it looks like it's some kind of a raft made by the natives. Shock Trooper - Probably we could use it to crossing the Lake.

After one of our squads found the SG Switch and shout it down, the way to the Generator has come free. Finally we have reached the border of the base, where the force field has already been turned off. Shock Trooper - It looks like there is no friendly or enemy activity. We should find out what's going on. BN-0303 -Sir, maybe I can get some information from that console. BN-0303 -Sir, I found a bunch of classified infos, which we do not have access to. But there are some accessible ones: The the base was evacuated and all remaining units were ordered to leave the moon. Shock Trooper - In that case we need to found the way out here. BG-0329 - I think, That might help us: Switches clicking, generators starting, computers beeping. Pre-departure checks Please judge.

I was given two additional troops to aid me on my journey. As I was walking I felt something.. Thinking to myself "I feel like someone from my past is here...." "but she was on Alderaan...." "and it..." "I also feel my..." "but he was with her..." Suddenly one of the troopers says. "Sir up ahead its the Jedi!" "Hands..." Before I could finish he said. [url=https://flic.kr/p/21HNTZ9 "I surrender" Then he hands me his light saber. "You (pointing to the trooper in the back) call a speeder bike, we need to get this Jedi to Lord Vader" "Yes sir" The spy's say whispering "Sharp, we found Charlie" "Finally, we can bring my brother home" For movement we would like to move to the left

Movement: We want to move one square left to U11. Ep1 Ep2 Ep3 Ep4 Ep5 Ep6 Our team finally found a promising outpost to find a security switch. The place, Bunker 0225, is surprisingly calm and EMPTY... BN-0303 - Sir this control panel is damaged and sparklin heavily for some reason, I'm not sure we could use it. Shock Trooper - Looks like this damage could have caused by a blaster, but by whom? If you can't enter the main computer, at least open that door. BN-0303 - Yes Sir, Just a minute! BG-0329 - What happend here? Shock Trooper - It seems something exploded. Shock Trooper - There was nothing left here, just ember and ash. TG-0222 - Could it have been an accident, or perhaps an ambush? BN-0303 - This and the traces inside are pretty suspicious. I think it must be a pretty heavy explosive installed properly to cause such damage. TG-0222 - Look! That's all that remained. Shock Trooper - We need to report it and move further.
-
It has arrived: My UCS Moc of the Devastator. This is my largest and most accurate model to date, started off as a rebuild of my older model which was disproportional and poorly built in some places. The Model confines al the main features including a battery of 8 turbo lasers, 2 hangers with docking arms, underside tractor beam and swappable tractor beam targeting arrays that can change the ship between a Imperial I class destroyer to a Imperial II class destroyer. The model comes on a removable start and has no interior features, apart from storage for extra parts such as plugs to fill in the stand gaps in the hanger and the secondary Tractor beam array. The bridge and superstructure come in 2 removable parts to ease the weight of his heavy model. The two destroyer variants: Glory to the Empire! This is the topic for the build process, to see how it was done: Full album with additional photos here:

We want to move down. We still haven't found the switch to shot down the force field, so all squads are searching for it on different areas. Incoming Orders: To all squad leaders. The enemy found the security switch. All troops move on to south immediately! Shock Trooper - Squad! The rebels found it and possible they have already turned off the force field. We need to hurry, they can reach the generator any time.
