  1. The jet booster was only seen in one TNBA episode and was covered by an edgy cap the rest of the time. I redesigned the Batmobile's rear end to reflect this:

    I didn't find anything on the Internet, so I tried myself, using Dr. Eggman's legs: I don't think it's a good solution - Vader is too tall now for my taste. Besides , his helmet already makes him taller than the other minifigures. But if you still want to try, I suggest crafting a long cape and a long 'skirt' for a better look out of black paper.
  3. I see. Well, it's just the solution I could think of back then. Studs are sometimes impossible to avoid, and the deficit of tiles is often my bane when building MOCs. Nevertheless, my build was utterly imperfect, and I had to redesign it a little. Despite the many problems, I think it's a decent model mow, albeit not the best-looking.
  4. The previous front landing gear leg was a disasterous disgrace! Redesigned it. Looks much better now, IMHO
  5. Remember "All-star Batman and Robin" where Batman painted himself, Robin and the room yellow to humiliate Green Lantern?
  6. Albeit a very advanced one. If so, it would explain so many things...
  7. It's complicated. Let's say I have much more parts than those who build digital MOCs, yet much less than those who build very large creations
  8. Thanks! Sadly, I have no intention of creating and posting instructions for those ships (though I may tro, starting with the TIE Defender). Studying the techniques of more experienced builders is a good way to study - and there are lots of designers that are far more advanced than me out there. Building out of a limited number of physical parts is also very helpful. I built all of my MOCs without designing a 3D model first or having a strict blueprint in my head - I created them on pure inspiration, starting with the parts of my future build that I imagined in my head, considering the pieces I have or can acquire now. It may not be the most rational way of MOCing, and I didn't build everything I wanted, but it's somehow reliable in some ways
  9. Why, thak you! But, yes, it's not my best-looking ship. My X-wing and TIE defender look much better, for example
  10. Why does Turtle not understand why Lego favours Marvel? Didn't he read our multiple posts here? Also, why does everyone think we'll be getting an Arkham? There is no solid evidence of this
  11. Of course we (at least, I) do! Isn't it the entire point - to show your progress? I am very curious now! Thanks! I will try... Speaking of non-Batman sets turned into Bat-vehicles, I just noticed a heavily modified jet plane from the Agents 8630 set. It's almost impossible to recognise. It's seen on the left in the 'Bruce Wayne lives in Batman's attic' scene. The Bat-Ekranoplane seen on the right, while hardly based on any set, is very interrsting
  12. I don't understand. Seriously, such parts didn't exist even in 1999. I know better-looking MOCs of the Y-wing exist, but I didn't know mine is that bad. I think my take on the engines is the problem - I couldn't think of a better solution...
  13. It's the helicopter that dropped Batman (disguised as the Mayor) at the power plant in the beginning. I suggest using screenshots of that scene for more information. Reducing the speed of the video helps a lot One of the most elusive GCPD vehicles from TLBM is, in fact, the VTOL aircraft flown by Barbara Gordon in her promotional video BTW, it's not entirely true. It introduced a Bat-themed 2007 Lego Creator 4953, seen in the very screenshot on your profile picture, but I guess that doesn't count, since it cannot fit any minifigure...
  14. Max_Lego replied to erik1's post in a topic in LEGO Star Wars
    I'm so glad you didn't give up on your AT-AT. Good luck! I hope it's going to be awesome
  15. I couldn't tolerate the inaccurate front landing gear leg any longer and redesigned it: Note that now it retracts backwards, just as on the original, not forwards as before
  16. Although the redesign was radical, I didn't think it deserves a new topic, so I post it here. I enraged the ship's hull, making it longer, wider and the small details more accurate (basing it on Gold 5 movie model). I also replaced the vectral rings with much, much better ones - which I am very proud of. Now the model has much better proportions and is almost exactly at 1/32 scale! The underbelly was also redesigned for better accuracy (though the forward landing gear is, sadly, still inaccurate): The model still stands well on its landing gear, though the vectral rings still need supports (transparent on picture):
  17. Thanks! I got the idea from John Mollo's statement that the Imperial crest was inspired by XVIII-century fortifications. I think it's up to @Professor Thaum to decide what K. Kaas is going to do. Please forgive me, but Rax cannot serve any Emperor - his allegiance is to the one and only true Empire, and he is part of a plan to restore it. Rax doesn't like warlords and distrusts them, believing they betrayed the Empire's ideals. He may temporarily ally with them, but will only serve the one known as the 'Chess meister', who is currently dealing with soul-consuming dinosaurs in the Unknown Regions...
  18. Thanks for the appreciation of my work! I gonna post my upgraded Y-wing soon too! I agree that the 75218 X-wing is the best, though the recent 'ugly' has its own pros. I also bought it at some point, and it helped me a lot. And the unique helmet mold from this set is perfect for Luke Skywalker, IMHO Exactly, but it's still more of a joke. Pellaeon's a dirty coward Rax's gonna dislike him in my fanfic (and he already does in Mysteries)
  19. More specifically, they are 75218 (X-wing) and 75175 (A-wing), recoloured with blue parts. Don't you want to try and design your own versions? I think they would be much better if you did, you are very skilled at designing Lego MOCs. BTW, Captain Pellaeon would've been proud of Taggart... He's lucky that he doesn't serve under Rax.
  20. On a happy note, I just noticed that this Two-Face minifigure looks like the Pete Holmes Badman version: TLG seems not to consolidate the perfect balance of facial features. Remember those creepy 2014 SW minifigures with excessive facial detail (though Luke's face could've worked well for the ROTJ version)? Now Lego faces seem to lack as much detail as possible. Also, remember when 2014 TDK Batman had an unique Bale's face under his cowl? I don't think we'll ever get anything like that in the future
  21. I must say that, for a minifigure without leg printing, Ledger Joker looks surprisingly good. I still don't like the hair colour - for me, it's too light. Harvey's hairpiece isn't perfect, but looks decent Also, why is Jonkler stealing money for himself, not burning it? Is he TNBA Jonkler? ...Aaaand, of course, it's Superman who's got the mech suit, not Lex. The Aslume is now official
  22. Glad to see more ships - both micro and minifigure scale! Let's assume it's a shortened version of the Lancer
