Posted July 9, 20222 yr Hello everyone! First post here. This is my T-47 MOC It's an original design, but of course I was inspired by previous custom T-47s, such as Larry Lars', FlyingWaffle's and Brickdoctor's. The T-47 is possibly my favorite Star Wars vehicle, so I always wanted to make my own, and I'm very happy with the final result. More images can be seen at my flickr album: https://flic.kr/s/aHBqjzXdbh I hope you like it! -UsernameGeri
July 9, 20222 yr Looks great! A lot of these details and techniques remind me of the UCS model, but somehow you crammed it all into a ship a fraction of the size!

Most notable is how the bottom flaps connect to the body, and the upside-down panels below the wings.
July 9, 20222 yr Looks fantastic! Nice attention to detail. It's been a long time since I've seen such a beautiful rendition of the T-47. Is this minifig scale? Maybe a little too large for that? Obviously you need some space to fit all those movable bits.

It's honestly hard to tell, since minifig proportions are very skewed, and capturing the proportions 1:1 is nigh on impossible.
July 14, 20222 yr Really nice, I've been wanting to add a T-47 to my collection, I might just have to build yours!

July 15, 20222 yr That is beautiful :) I am a big fan of the liftarm things near the tips of the cannons.
