February 9, 201114 yr Wow That is incredible, Coke sponsors the Empire then . The Sentinel looks a bit small now compared with the Nu, great job cavegod. . PS: Whats next, a Theta, a Eta, all 5 would look lovely together.
February 9, 201114 yr Author Cherry coke actually, it's the drink of the Sith! nah i'm having a break for now and taking it easy building a moc at the same time as someone else.
February 10, 201114 yr Author thanks for all the praise!! i have ordered the pilot and gunner so 1 last pic with them and it's onto the next project which, will not be totally my design and i don't think i will be doing a build thread as there is one already.
February 10, 201114 yr awesome work cavegod!!! do you have some instructions for it, so i could rebuild it? i would love to!
February 10, 201114 yr Author awesome work cavegod!!! do you have some instructions for it, so i could rebuild it? i would love to! Ha ha! no sorry it can be built from the pictures easy enough though.
February 11, 201114 yr Nice work on the Republic Attack Shuttle. It turned out pretty awesome. My son suggested I buy one when he saw me looking at the pictures.
February 11, 201114 yr It looks nice but the cockpit doesn't look round enough and maybe a little big and blocky. Edited February 11, 201114 yr by RvB
February 11, 201114 yr Author It looks nice but the cockpit doesn't look round enough and maybe a little big and blocky. which part of the cockpit is round? as for being big and blocky for some reason the camera makes it look like that but in the felsh/plastic it looks smaller
February 11, 201114 yr Well, the cockpit and the gun turrets are kinda round... Kudos on an amazing build! I really like the amount of detailing and I think you got the overall shape down (nearly) perfectly. May I ask what you used as reference for the angles of the engines and wings? Judging from the above picture it looks like the engines and winges should have the same angle when in flight mode.
February 11, 201114 yr No Pepsi, just Coke! Great MOC 'cavegod' Very impressive Those are huge, the can was a great prospect to its size. The details are awesome. Keep up the great work.
February 11, 201114 yr Cavegod, that is a proper masterpiece! You've captured the shape of the ship really really well for a brickbuilt ship. I don't think it's blocky at all; it's about as blocky as your reference picture. I always love it when I see an MOC on such a scale that at first glance it doesn't look like it was made with LEGO - but it was! Ter-ri-fic!
February 11, 201114 yr Inspiring work Cavegod. Hopefully I might see it for real if not too busy will come and have a gander at the Southport Airshow.

Judging from the above picture it looks like the engines and winges should have the same angle when in flight mode. yeah i know the sides should slope a bit more but i could not find a way to achieve a strong way of holding the wing hinge, maybe i will have a rework at a later stage.
February 11, 201114 yr Kudos Cavegod ! You captured the shape very well and reproduced very well to the color scheme of the real ship ! A display card would make the model even better. Otherwise, how did you attached the studded wings to the studless liftarm ? It would have been perfect if you had succeeded to include a mechanism for the wings.

Judging from the above picture it looks like the engines and winges should have the same angle when in flight mode. Well after 3 hours of pain and extreme thinking i have managed to get the sides to slope more so it now looks right although, the wings seem a little big still. Anyway i will post a picture of the revised shuttle later on. Kudos Cavegod ! You captured the shape very well and reproduced very well to the color scheme of the real ship ! A display card would make the model even better. Otherwise, how did you attached the studded wings to the studless liftarm ? It would have been perfect if you had succeeded to include a mechanism for the wings. the wings are attached using '2x2 plate with hole', yeah to get the wings to fold i would have to widen the gap where they hinge to accomodate a gear, which would take away from the nice looking sides (like the imperial shuttle looks) i thin its fine without though after all it's a display peice for shows.
February 11, 201114 yr It looks incredible cavegod! The scale pic really puts it in the WOWer book! The two shuttles look excellent together! CF
February 11, 201114 yr Author Ok heres the result of 4 hrs labour! - dunno if i ever posted a pic of it like this. and 2 more pics for scale
February 12, 201114 yr "Don't jump out! Captain Cavegod hasn't landed the shuttle yet!" <hint>Brickdoctor wants you to try to take pics of the shuttle landed without regard to how hard it might be to pose the wings.</hint>
February 12, 201114 yr THAT IS FREAKING AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think you did an INCREDIBLE job and you deserve a cookie
February 12, 201114 yr Author WOW! Amazing job! Great MOCs! More on the AT-AT...? theres an entire thread on the at-at somewhere on here
