Hello,

before I start writing about my Zeta Class, I want to say that I am sorry for my maybe not the best english. It's because I am from germany, but I try to write as good as I can.

 

A few weeks ago I started watching for a Zeta Class in Lego. I didn't found something I like, so I started building my own!

It is built of 4 parts: 1. The Cargo Room, 2. The Control Room, 3. and 4. The wings.

Now I will say something to the ship in general, and at the and I will show you some pictures.

1. The Cargo Room

In the Cargo Room I am able to put ~15 minifigs in (standing!). On the back of the Cargo Room is a place for the weapons, the backpacks and so on.

2. The Control Room

In the Control Room there are 2 control panels and one seat in the front from which the ship could get controlled. In the Control Room I can put ~10 minifigs. It looks like if there are more minfigs getting place, but it isn't like this because the ceiling is taking a little bit space too and there are some crossbars.

3. and 4. The wings

The wings are connected to the site of the ship and are able to move, but they weight to much so they are falling down if they dont get connected with a crossbar.

 

My Zeta Class has more than 700 pieces (for you this isn't much I think, but I usually don't build ships from Star Wars and it is one of the first ships I built). Soon I will make a building tutorial on my YouTube-Channel!

Pictures now in topic

Hey Logitaet, welcome to Eurobricks!  No worries about your english - it seems fine to me 

For the images, from the picload.org photo page I right clicked "open image in new tab" (so you get something like img2 . picload.org / etc etc .jpg) then pasted that URL here.  Then if you hold "control" and right click on the pasted image, it gives you image options and you can resize it to something smaller.  You might also sign up for flickr, as they make it easier to upload different sizes.

 

Your shuttle looks good - it seems like a mix between 'playset' and 'UCS' as far as size and detail.  The wings seem a little small in proportion to the body, but since you said weight is already an issue I can see why you wouldn't want to make them bigger.  Here are a few of your pics - you can edit your post and see if you can add the rest using the method I mentioned.
