[MOC] 1.4 FD P-Tower i Viper Probe

[Falcrum]

Front by Jakub Grochowski

Another Friday, another MOC - so here we go.

The two objects in the title are a high-power Rebel ion cannon and a probe droid, which discovered Alliance's base on the planet and led to Empire's invasion on Hoth. I strived for accuracy (preserved proportions of the original) and adequate scale, since the vast majority of builds depicting the viper probe and the cannon I see on the internet are quite oversized. I wish I had enough pieces to build the white anti-personnel turret, then I'd have a full set.

As promised, the build marks the 2nd entry to my 5 episode Star Wars MOC series.

A photo of the original droid and turret for comparison.

Please feel free to comment this MOC.

Love the turret but sadly I can't really see the probe droid, do you maybe have a picture of it on a lighter background? I'm really curious about it, seeing the quality of the rest of the build :)

I love the design of the P-tower, especially how you used the little mechanical claw parts. Unfortunately, the black background means I can't make out the probe.

Love your attention to detail on the tower! You should join us for Mysteries. I'm sure the Light or Dark Side would love you on their team.
