CP5670 Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 (edited) I haven't posted here in quite some time, but am still building things. This was inspired by all the trans-yellow pieces we have been getting lately, especially in the Batman sets.

Moriboe Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 Looks great! And it really captures the atmosphere of the original series. Quote
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 Gorgeous ...I like the roof of the hangar! Quote
CP5670 Posted January 26, 2019 Author Posted January 26, 2019 Thanks! I think the new windscreens let you achieve the same kind of sharp edged, angular look that was a hallmark of the old Blacktron sets. Quote
GeoBrick Posted January 27, 2019 Posted January 27, 2019 The beauty of those old black pieces. The colors don't fade with the years. It indeed looks just like the old sets. Looks like the Blacktron cyborgs have started to take over though. Quote
Saint_Miroku Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 I love all of the shapes used on the buildings, it really makes the buildings stand out from the base plate! I'm sure that Blacktron is gonna be making a killing selling off whatever information they can decrypt... Keep up the good work! Quote
ncx Posted January 9, 2023 Posted January 9, 2023 I realize this is an old post but I have to give you some credit here, those inverted windscreens as windows is a fantastic alternative to the expensive panels and nicer looking than having to resort to using 1x2 trans-yellow bricks. I really like that idea. Thanks for sharing this! Quote

With the Galaxy Explorer release it's easy to get those windscreens in quantity as well. Quote
