UCS Imperial Landing Craft

[Masked Builder]

Again it's gigantic! The back wing looks good.

[cavegod]

How about these?

I have a few, never had an issue with them slipping.

yeah they won't slip but i cannot lower the gear ratio with them, it's summat to think about though

Again it's gigantic! The back wing looks good.

nah it's relatively small

now a UCS AT-AT that would be gigantic!

Now if only you had one of those to compa- oh.

[cavegod]

i may even take a pic of them together when it's complete.

You know what you should make after this? Minifig-scale UCS Titan Dropship:

[cavegod]

Well i've modified the gear train so that it doesn't slip but the wings are still too heavy they fold down no problem but to fold them up with out breaking more gears they have to have a helping hand.

Too bad. Any predictions on when we'll get more eye candy?

next 5 mins if you really want....

Well it's getting somewhere like how i want now so it's time to start getting parts finished i will be changing the cockpit again and i still have to decide what to do with the side panelling but here's what i have so far.

[Brickdoctor]

Greebling is looking good, and I love the ramp.

Great interpretative greebling. It's really looking the business. Looking forward to seeing what your ideas for the cockpit are!

[Masked Builder]

Awesome! That ramp is great! So are those wings.

[Ritz Brick]

I always did think that ship was kind of silly looking, but yours looks great, good attention to detail on it.

[apemax]

Carefull planning, sheer ingeniusness by myself an imense amount of calculation and trial and error and above all else amazing blind luck!

nah theres a lot of bricks in the front as counterbalance you will see in the pictures that there is a black tech beam holding the rear up on a hard surface it sits fine and can take a good knock without falling backwards.

Now that just made my day!!!

Glad to know you share his opinion on the carpet though, Cavegod.

Otherwise great work on the ship, will there be any pictures of the interior?

the only interior will be the cockpit and the visible part of the boarding ramp.

my 10212 arrived today so i can posr a picture of them together when i get chance to build it that is.

I am loving this. Maybe your best work (in my opinion)? I dont like the look of the real thing as its a bit ugly but yours works. I do also love the details that you can manage to put in! Cant wait till it finished! Any idea on your next project?

Thanks, CB

Kinda hard to find anything nice and big from the OT that's not one of those colors, so how about an MTT with all 112 B1s?

[Fallenangel]

Radiant VII?

Oh, wait, all of yours are in minifigure scale...

then...

Khetanna?

Jawa sandcrawler?

World Devastator? (I see you're considering video game ships, so why not Dark Empire?)

There's also the Jabitha, the Seismic tank, and the CR-20 troop transport - all from the Clone Wars.

not all minifig scale if possible in minifig then it will be that scale but otherwise they are in scale with the official UCS, xwing y wing tie fighter etc.

[cavegod]

well i've hit a wall in the building process, the lambdas cockpit works looks ok but looks wrong, to use the proper design i have found will leave no room to place a minifig behind the windscreen, plus i cannot figure a decent way to build it.
