dvogon Posted June 7, 2019 Posted June 7, 2019 (edited) Here is may take on this contest, which I find very nice. As 10 different entries are requested, I send mine. I hope this number will be valid for all categories and not per category. This contest reminded me the need of having a proper First Order snow speeder in Lego. The retail one (75100) was so big that I found more interesting to reuse the pieces elsewhere than keeping the set built. The minifigs are great though... So that's the theme of my build: a mining-scale FO snow speeder. For a one second shot in the movie it seems not to be the best choice for a landspeeder, well a snowed-land speeder , but to me it's much more interesting than the reduced (and early inverted version) of the same snow speeder that appeared in 75166 set. However, I think the speeder has a great design and the removed chase scene would have been a good plus to the movie, giving the FO snow troopers a better role in the film. To have a sense of the scale, the size and pieces count is around a 29,99€ Lego set. Hope you like it! The speeder has a display stand featuring motion-blurred snowed terrain to feel that the shot is focused on the speeder itself but not on the terrain. The stand has a small tilt to increase the speed and motion feeling that may be adjusted (just) a bit. This is a front shot. The FO has found us! We are in trouble... A shot from the back with a slightly more prominent tilt. And that's it! Below are other pictures focused on some details of the model: Spoiler This is the snowed-land motion-blurred display stand with a rather simple small adjustable tilt device. The tilt device isn't visible from most angles. A top view of the snow speeder with its crew and accessories. A complementary bottom view. A lateral view to show the minifig proportions of the set. Preparing the stuff for the next mission... Edited October 27, 2019 by dvogon Fixed instagram URLs Quote
Retro Posted June 8, 2019 Posted June 8, 2019 I like the fact that if you travel in the back seat you get a head rest. Luxury. Also like the bluish purple lighting in the photos. Good luck! Quote
