Posted January 21, 201015 yr I have been working on this project for over a year writing a construction journal as I go. I still am only half way though but I have seen some old posts on here refering to Red Dwarf, so I thought I would share. If you dont know what starbug looks like here is a corgi model that I have based my scaling measurements from. You can see my construction journal on The Red Dwarf Network or Moc Pages or for just the photos on Flickr If you still have no idea what Red Dwarf is I encorage you to watch this episode on you tube, Gunmen of the Appocolypse
January 21, 201015 yr What the smeg ! I need a beer and a curry ! Maybe Cat ate it ! Great MOC so far - I'm dying to see the four main characters in minifig form - that would be totally AWESOME !!! I'm a conformist! 'Projectgregory' !
January 21, 201015 yr Author What the smeg ! I need a beer and a curry ! Maybe Cat ate it ! Great MOC so far - I'm dying to see the four main characters in minifig form - that would be totally AWESOME !!! I'm a conformist! 'Projectgregory' ! I allready have some parts of the figs but i have created a minifig sized skutter and a larger version as well
January 21, 201015 yr I prefer the larger version, I really like the technique you used to make the hand.
January 21, 201015 yr Looks really good so far, love the skutter. Will you be building the small rouge one? (any scale). I recommend you post it on Ganymede and Titan which is the largest Red Dwarf fansite around.
January 21, 201015 yr Although I've never heard of this ship or thing before, I must say you are creating it out of LEGO very nicely. It looks very proportionate. Good work so far.
January 21, 201015 yr Although I've never heard of this ship or thing before No way!!!!!????Get yourself on ebay and buy as many Red Dwarf dvd's as you can!!Tis the funniest thing on t.v As for the ship,its looking great!Im looking forward to seeing the figs,how will you do Kryten's head?
January 21, 201015 yr Author Looks really good so far, love the skutter.Will you be building the small rouge one? (any scale). I recommend you post it on Ganymede and Titan which is the largest Red Dwarf fansite around. Oh I know of G&T and they know of me, To be honest I know the creators of that site very personaly and I don't think I can use the word here I would use to describe them. Never the less This model is on the biggest Red Dwarf Forum which is at www.reddwarf.co.uk On the topic of the Small Rouge One (Red Dwarf) I enitialy set out building that but Starbug offered more excitment and challenges, with the biggest challange still to come which is the curviture of the engine hosing. I may try building Red Dwarf again in the future but alot of my red bricks now are deep inside starbug keeping it solid. Although I've never heard of this ship or thing before, I must say you are creating it out of LEGO very nicely. It looks very proportionate. Good work so far. There is a link in the first post for the episode gunmen of the apocolyse on youtube, you must watch that episode if you do anything today. Thanks for the support. No way!!!!!????Get yourself on ebay and buy as many Red Dwarf dvd's as you can!!Tis the funniest thing on t.v As for the ship,its looking great!Im looking forward to seeing the figs,how will you do Kryten's head? I have 2 options for Krytens head as I see it at the moment 1st I could use a Tan 1x1 brick (simple but effective). 2nd I have a damaged c3p0 head if I where to take a knife to it it would resemble kryten. Note: I have never and will proberbley never intensionaly destroy/modify LEGO bricks so I guess i'm left with option 1 or a find another methord.
January 21, 201015 yr That's quite interesting. I've come across the show once or twice by channel-surfing. I like the larger blue skutter thing.

Like others I can't wait to see what you do for the minifigs. I was wondering if the K-3PO head might work for Kryten.

Like others I can't wait to see what you do for the minifigs. I was wondering if the K-3PO head might work for Kryten. K-3PO's head is to round I think, I guess I will have to be patient on that side of things. Meanwhile construction is slowing down again now but I now have another floor in the rear sphere with a medi bay and escapepod along with my working vending machine.
January 23, 201015 yr Awesome! I love Red Dwarf, I was watching Body Swap and The Last Day this morning! Imagine a Minifig Scale Red Dwarf! Although you couldn't really do that since half the rooms are never explored! On day, I may have to make my own Starbug!
January 23, 201015 yr Author Awesome!I love Red Dwarf, I was watching Body Swap and The Last Day this morning! Imagine a Minifig Scale Red Dwarf! Although you couldn't really do that since half the rooms are never explored! On day, I may have to make my own Starbug! It takes alot of green bricks and alot of creative problems to overcome. But I would love to see some more Red Dwarf Lego creations out there. I was going to do a mini fig Red Dwarf but only having 5 or so rooms in it, I may still build it once I have finished Starbug, but then I may also build one of the Blue Midgets.
January 24, 201015 yr Love it, can't wait to see how you do the curry stains on Daves t shirt or a Holly would be great. Red Dwarf is on Dave later on tonight, might have to watch it again now.

Yes go watch Red Dwarf, It is great news that they are making a new series and I would love to have this finished for that event. Even better would be if it could go into one of the episodes say Lister is building it. I do have a plan to put a female (Hattie) Holly in Starbug but you will have to wait for that.
January 24, 201015 yr Love it, can't wait to see how you do the curry stains on Daves t shirt or a Holly would be great.Red Dwarf is on Dave later on tonight, might have to watch it again now. Series 3 is on Virgin on Demand if you got that. Im looking to buy "All the shows" soon.
January 24, 201015 yr Author Series 3 is on Virgin on Demand if you got that. Im looking to buy "All the shows" soon. I'm a big RD fan I have all the original VHS episodes and the Remasterd episodes as well as all of the DVD versions, Including Smeg ups and outs Tounge Tied the music Video and a vinal copy of the song tounge tied. All in all I have too much RD stuff around.
