Iguanotron Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 I built a microscale version of this ship from FTL a few months back, but I haven't gotten around to posting it anywhere yet, so here you go: the Man of War, Slug Cruiser layout 'A.' Man of War by Iguanotron, on Flickr Rear View: Man of War - Rear by Iguanotron, on Flickr Here is a comparison with the in-game appearance of the ship (colors altered for effect): Man of War - Comparison by Iguanotron, on Flickr If anyone is interested in LDD/instruction files, here they are: Instructions LDD File Enjoy!

Graham Gidman Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 Wow, you aced a difficult design, Well done! Quote
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 Wow! So little and so complex! :wub: Quote
Iguanotron Posted January 13, 2016 Author Posted January 13, 2016 Thanks! This is probably my best MOC yet and it turned out surprisingly well. Also the first I planned out in LDD before building IRL. Wish I could have uploaded pictures sooner. Any feedback is appreciated! Quote
The Ace Railgun Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 (edited) That looks really good, even the studs on top match the design of the in game version. Edited January 13, 2016 by The Ace Railgun Quote
Chase The Cop Posted January 14, 2016 Posted January 14, 2016 Wow! Recreating that design with that level of details is already quite a feat, but especially at this size/ scale.. Beautiful! Quote
The Mugbearer Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 Looks better than mine for sure. =P Quote
Forresto Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 Wow! That is surprisingly spot on! I love FTL and I never thought of making lego versions of the ship. You should consider making more ships from the game, especially since I don't think there are many MOCs of the game out there on the web. You would have prominence. Quote
The Mugbearer Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 (edited) especially since I don't think there are many MOCs of the game out there on the web As far as I know Iguanotron's Man of War is a second instance of FTL MOCs. The first one being mine. Maybe you've heard of a LEGO CUUSOO (aka LEGO IDEAS) project that hit 10k supporters but was not picked for production. Well, it was my project.

bricklover Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 Two micro! Look just like the real one. Quote

I'm coming out of a dark age so this is relatively new to me. I just looked it up and your Kestrel and lineup was excellent. That really sucks it didn't get picked as the mini figures alone would have been fantastic. Quote
Sarles Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 Awesome detail on such a little ship. Also you nailed getting the original ships shape down pat. Great work. Quote
FonsoSac Posted February 14, 2016 Posted February 14, 2016 Great job! I like the use of the gaps beetwen parts to make the model more accurate at this size. Quote
