Posted May 9, 20168 yr Location: B06, Sorn Tags: Military Building, Spaceship, Land vehicle With reports of unknown alien fleets coming from MANTIS ship captains a few sectors away, MANTIS had increased the number of patrol flights around Sorn. After taking some time to relax at his home on Torresta, Hawk had been assigned to Sorn to help protect MANTIS assets on the planet from possible alien attacks. - Hawk had been assigned a Alpha wing intercepter, one of MANTIS's best star fighters in the fleets armory. It is highly swooshable and heavily armed for a ship it's size. - - With his ship refueled and reloaded, Hawk prepares to launch. More pictures under the spoiler tag. Reveal hidden contents - As you probably guessed, the alpha wing is based off the A-wing. It even has a place to store a wrench in the cockpit like every A-wing Lego set has had for some reason. - A shot of it compared to the last A-wing set. - Doing a barrel roll. - The important troop transport cart. - Thanks for looking. Criticisms welcomed. Edited May 9, 20168 yr by StarHawk3
May 9, 20168 yr The cement mixer tanks look really nice the way you incorporated them into the wall with piping and girders around them The whole hangar bay in general looks quite functional. Well detailed Alpha Fighter too, even the bottom looks great
May 9, 20168 yr Really cool scene. Looks very A-Wing but with some proper Mantis styling. I really like the ladder idea and will be using that for builds!
May 9, 20168 yr Great A-Wing and I like the angled rear vertical wings. The underside is very impressive and detailed too! The shot without the A-Wing really shows off the great hangar!
May 10, 20168 yr Excellent build, Hawk! The angled wall of the hangar is superb, and as soccerkid said, the cement mixers work very well here Outstanding work with the Alpha wing too, I really like how you attached the guns
May 10, 20168 yr That alpha wing is fantastic! Star Wars stuff looks great when they are MANTISified. The hangar too is really well done.

May 12, 20168 yr The hangar is top-notch, and I like your A-wing better than the original! Edited May 12, 20168 yr by rodiziorobs
