Posted March 29, 201113 yr So I have been building the Republic Dropship in LDD and stumbled upon the the SDCC Mini version exclusive. I found some decent pictures of the exclusive set on Brickshelf and reversed engineer the design from the pictures. I actually like this kit a lot. Now I need to troll Bricklink for the pieces because I do not need to spend $300 for a mini kit haha. Here is my little army that I made. This is a picture of the real thing (from bricklink)
March 29, 201113 yr Nice work, Solscud. The color changes you made look good, too. Shame those levers don't really come in dk. red.
March 29, 201113 yr Author Nice work, Solscud. The color changes you made look good, too. Shame those levers don't really come in dk. red. I know. I had actually made the ARC trooper RGS with bright red front and thought about making the Dropship with bright red, but decided to use the darker red. I dont like the dark blue of the real Dropship. I prefer the bright blue.
March 29, 201113 yr thats a really great project good luck! I hope you will be able to find everything :P i have a question, what did you use to make that? i mean what is the programe name to make lego on the cpu? thank you
March 29, 201113 yr Pretty neat LDD rendering of this mini-Dropship and AT-TE Solscud, I've been thinking also of doing these minis for a planned mini-diorama, so I might have to take a closer look at these also. i have a question, what did you use to make that? i mean what is the programe name to make lego on the cpu? thank you It's the Lego Digital Designer (LDD) program. We have a whole subforum dedicated for it, so you might want to check it out for more info. And pls. kindly observe proper capitalization and punctuation when posting. Thank you.
March 29, 201113 yr Nice reverse engineering! I quite like that mini set, it's crazy it's worth more than the large version!
March 29, 201113 yr Totally AWESOME mini creation 'Solscud007'......now this should be one of those poly bag sets ! May the brick be with you 'Solscud007' !
March 29, 201113 yr Author Hey! Where's the lxf file for those of us a little numb at using LDD? No prob. How do I post the LXF file? I tried using the forum's file attachment but it would not allow me to attach an LXF.
