December 5, 201410 yr Link to the LDD file here https://www.dropbox....ructed.lxf?dl=0 Its mostly exterior design but hopefully it might help you. No offence. This really look almost like Cavegod's AT-AT.
December 5, 201410 yr None taken, in my original thread i gave props to Cavegod and explained my idea was to make an AT-AT as impressive as his but slightly smaller so the piece count wasnt going to cost the same as the expenditure of a small country
December 5, 201410 yr The more I look at your schematic, the more I am tempted to try and build it. Cavegod's has always been a bit ambitious for me, but 4k pieces is doable. In terms of your design, do you think the 8 2x2 connection points to the undercarriage is enough to support the weight of that cockpit being that far forward?
December 5, 201410 yr Probably not but i was planning on beefing up the connections anyway, the plan was to get as much external detail as possible till i was happy then work on the internals, i just never got time to finish it. Feel free to work on the design, it would be fantastic to see it built
December 5, 201410 yr Author No offence boys but, remember that is my topic and my AT-AT Edited December 5, 201410 yr by La Chupacabra
December 5, 201410 yr No offence boys but, remember that is my topic and my AT-AT And a splendid AT-AT it's sure to be! ;)
December 8, 201410 yr Author Im still waiting for parts from BL, meanwhile updated movable head (thanks to All in Reflexes). Im also working on side plates of head amour to avoid use of turntables. Edited December 8, 201410 yr by La Chupacabra
December 10, 201410 yr Author Little announce of upcoming pictures: Evil Imperial Crew New version of drive motor (I think that Dark Bluish Gray wheels look good): Edited December 10, 201410 yr by La Chupacabra
December 10, 201410 yr Foot in progress: I am seeing a large grey monster with two eyes, mouth open wide.... AT-AT will be great when it is done! Good luck!
December 10, 201410 yr manamana... I'm not a picky about feet normally, but I think I prefer cavegods feet - http://gimmelego.blo...s-all-over.html I guess cause these are the snowspeeder stomping bit of the behemoth we get the clostest look at... looking great though. I'm envious! Edited December 10, 201410 yr by gavralcraw
December 26, 201410 yr A small piece of advice. Your AT AT will be very heavy, as you are using bricks for the outside. If you want the legs to be poseable, or, at least, be sure that your AT AT will not fall frontwards or rearwards, I suggest putting double hinges in all the leg joints. My lighter AT AT suffered a catastrophic accident because the "shoulders" (the joints which were in the top of the front legs) were not able to withstand a push from behind and the vehicle collapsed. Exactly like in Episode V where an AT AT is shot down by a Snowspeeder... Best regards.
December 26, 201410 yr Author Thanks for your advice. It is hard to add another hinge - in that case leg or hip would have to be thicker. Im considering also non movable version... After New Year i will post some photos of four legs. Now i have finished two legs and two another are half build. Edited December 26, 201410 yr by La Chupacabra
December 29, 201410 yr http://www.imperiumdersteine.de/index.php?/topic/42508-at-at/ This is a mildly different take as well...
December 29, 201410 yr Author I have seen this version. It is bigger then mine and similar to cavegod's. Edited December 29, 201410 yr by La Chupacabra
January 11, 201510 yr Author In next week i will post some photos of 100% finished four legs. I have also ordered all parts for head When head will be completed i will be in middle of my MOC. So far (with head pcs) i have spent about 450€ but i have a lot of spare parts for body and for my future MOCs (AT-ST)
January 13, 201510 yr Author Empire is enlisting but still one crew member is missing : Tree legs (im waiting for missing parts for four leg): Also i have idea for new foots (similar to cavegod version). I have two hips and next two are missing parts so Im waiting again Edited January 13, 201510 yr by La Chupacabra
January 16, 201510 yr Author Hips and drive motor: They are quite stable. Im building head right now but again i have some missing parts Edited January 16, 201510 yr by La Chupacabra
January 17, 201510 yr Author Head completed in about 60%: Edited January 17, 201510 yr by La Chupacabra
January 18, 201510 yr Amazing job "La Chupacabra"... You are making one of the best minifig scale AT-AT I have seen!
January 20, 201510 yr this is gonna look great when its finished... im thinking about building one too because i believe Lego wont release UCS AT-AT anytime in the near future. And if they do i think it will come out looking like the Sandcrawler which i did not like. Way too many studs.
