Posted September 1, 20177 yr Hello everyone! :) I've always loved the design of the Y-Wing with its many small details and greebles. When I first saw dmaclego's Y-Wing I loved it so much I wanted to create my own version... and so I did. As you can see, his model was a major inspiration and I used a lot of his techniques for especially the cockpit area and engine pods. Still, I had a lot of fun designing this model (first in LDD, then with real bricks) from the ground up. The details in the center of the ship all match the movie prop, down to the shape of the brown tubes. I've also added a retractable landing gear with opening hatches, but unfortunately this does mean it can't support the full weight of the model. In total there are approximately 1800 parts. The color scheme chosen is a combination between Gold Leader (Yellow and sand blue markings & astromech) and Gold 2 (brown tubes). Have a look and let me know what you think!

I am willing to give the LDD of this model out for free, I would never profit from the work of others. I just prefer to hand out my files personally, hence people who are interested should send me a PM to obtain it. I'm sorry if you thought otherwise!
