Anio Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 EDIT : Professional building instruction available here : You can email me at setechnic@gmail.com /EDIT Hello there ! Let me show you my UCS Venator ! It is a 5400 part model. UCS Venator Star Destroyer by Anio, sur Flickr UCS Venator Star Destroyer by Anio, sur Flickr UCS Venator Star Destroyer by Anio, sur Flickr UCS Venator Star Destroyer by Anio, sur Flickr It was a very difficult design process. You can see the modularity of the build with those pictures : Brickshelf gallery : http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=422392 FlickR gallery : For the instruction, it is here : Hope you like it as much as I do. :) Here are some videos. The first is mine. Then some are reviews made by Lego fans who reproduced the model. Quote
Polo Posted January 17, 2010 Posted January 17, 2010 (edited) EDIT : Professional building instruction available here : http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=37663&st=150#entry1597460 You can email me at setechnic@gmail.com /EDIT Hi everybody, This my version of the famous Venator, inspired by the design of Thire5. It's of course an UCS scale ship. I would like to thank a lot Thire5, who permitted me to accomplish this project, with his agreement and some pictures during the building . The geometry is almost the same of the Thire5's one. The most important changes are the greebles, whitch are inspired of the ISD #10030. The feet are the same too. Its length is 112cm, and took me 7 months to build . I'm working on the buildings instructions. The first version of the documentation is available and is composed of MLCad files You'll find it as an attachement of this post. The whole galery is available here : http://www.brickshel...ry.cgi?f=404881 The ship is composed of about 5340 parts. I hope you'll like it Edited July 3, 2013 by Brickdoctor Fixed instructions announcement. Quote
Rufus Posted January 17, 2010 Posted January 17, 2010 Woah that's impressive Do you have a shot from the back? Quote
echobasehoth Posted January 17, 2010 Posted January 17, 2010 very very nice. i find the big ucs mocs awesome, would like to build one myself one day, seeing this make me wanna build even more :-) Quote
prateek Posted January 17, 2010 Posted January 17, 2010 Probably one of the best Venators I've seen. Great job! I would love if TLC released a UCS Venator just like this Quote
ILikePi Posted January 17, 2010 Posted January 17, 2010 Another stunning Venator MOC! I love almost every part of it. However, the side greebles get pretty repetitive. Perhaps a bit more variety there (it's just the same pattern, repeated about 10 times)? Quote
Polo Posted January 17, 2010 Posted January 17, 2010 Thank you very much @Rufus : The MOC is very strong, but not enough to turn it back. I have to take back pictures by an other way Nevertheless, I took a screenshot of the whole modelisation ( when it was in progress ) : I don't have built the back bay yet . Because I'm so lazy !! Seriously, I really have to do this. Quote
Darth Legolas Posted January 17, 2010 Posted January 17, 2010 Odd that everyone loves making UCS venators. Well, this is one of the best! I think my favorite thing on it is the bridge design. Perhaps the engines could use just a teeny bit more greebles, but other than that, it's perfect! Quote
RoryoCox Posted January 17, 2010 Posted January 17, 2010 That's just fabulous. I love the colours and the greebles. The overall design is just brilliant. Well Done, I can't wait to see any of your other MOCs. Quote
Lorentzen Posted January 17, 2010 Posted January 17, 2010 (edited) Wow - that is one stunning creation. I'm seriously impressed. edit: I just checked some photos of the one in the movie.... holy crap yours is just like it. I'm even more impressed now Edited January 17, 2010 by Lorentzen Quote
Big Cam Posted January 17, 2010 Posted January 17, 2010 That is insanely huge!!! I really love how accurate it is, right down to the hangar entrance, it literally looks like a scale model they could use in the movie!! Most impressive! Quote
Legoman Posted January 17, 2010 Posted January 17, 2010 Wow very nice design you have there! Thats very nicely detailed and comes accross as huge. Great job! Quote
the lead general Posted January 17, 2010 Posted January 17, 2010 Awesome MOC, does it have a interior? Quote
RileyC Posted January 17, 2010 Posted January 17, 2010 WOW! it so big. I love all the greebling on the side of the ship its just incredible! Awesome work! Quote
BlueDragonZ Posted January 18, 2010 Posted January 18, 2010 (edited) That Venator is HUGE and quite accurate too ! Awesome MOC. Edited January 18, 2010 by BlueDragonZ Quote
legoman777 Posted January 18, 2010 Posted January 18, 2010 on your brickshelf file it says that there are instructions coming for the lego venator. are they made. if not, when are they going to be made. Quote
samurai-turtle Posted January 18, 2010 Posted January 18, 2010 (edited) I would not be surprise if this gets front page. EDIT: I should of check the front page it looks like it already has. Edited January 18, 2010 by samuraiturtle Quote
dartmar Posted January 18, 2010 Posted January 18, 2010 Impressive, most impressive! Really a nice MOC. Maybe one of these days I will feel inspired and build one too. It has been maybe 10 year since I build my own models. Did you use the frame from the stardestroyer and build the Venator over it? Quote
Polo Posted January 18, 2010 Posted January 18, 2010 Thank you for all your comments !! Another stunning Venator MOC! I love almost every part of it. However, the side greebles get pretty repetitive. Perhaps a bit more variety there (it's just the same pattern, repeated about 10 times)? I reused the patterns of the ISD to do the side greebles. I know, it's quite repetitive, but it brings some integrity whith the UCS line. Awesome MOC, does it have a interior? No, it doesn't, because the frame takes almost all the space in the ship. In addition, I built it in an UCS way, not a playset on your brickshelf file it says that there are instructions coming for the lego venator. are they made. if not, when are they going to be made. The first version of the documentation in included in my first post, with a partlist, the MLCad models, and a readme. I'll try to improve it, but the size of the MOC complicates the matter Impressive, most impressive!Really a nice MOC. Maybe one of these days I will feel inspired and build one too. It has been maybe 10 year since I build my own models. Did you use the frame from the stardestroyer and build the Venator over it? I am very flattered ! The frame is not the one from the ISD, I reused the geometry of the thire5's Venator. http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=26049 One more time, I would like to thank him a lot for his work Quote
Lord Starkiller Posted January 18, 2010 Posted January 18, 2010 What?!?!? you build that and dont put an inside in?!?!?!?!?!?!? Thats insane! Quote
Rook Posted January 18, 2010 Posted January 18, 2010 Very nice. I like the detail on the turrets. I struggled with that part on mine. Couldn’t find the right balance between size and detail. Quote
def Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 This ship is utterly ridiculous. Fantastic. The greebling is beautiful, and it is one of the best MOCs of this ship I've seen. Looking forward to your next piece! Quote
Polo Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 (edited) Very nice. I like the detail on the turrets. I struggled with that part on mine. Couldn’t find the right balance between size and detail. I aggree with you. I spent a lot of time to get THE turret : to have this result, I worked betwen 5 and 6 hours....just for a 14 parts turret Seriously, It was very difficult. PS: I did a HUUUUGE mistake on the documentation : I forgot to include the frame's file. Now it's fixed. I also added some intructions about the order of the building.
