stark mark 5 Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 The Nantex-class territorial defense starfighter, also known as the beak-wing fighter or simply the Geonosian starfighter, was a model of starfighter that was manufactured by Huppla Pasa Tisc Shipwrights Collective and designed for the exclusive use of the Geonosians when guarding their territories against intruders. During the Clone Wars, these small, speedy craft would see service with the naval and land forces of the Confederacy of Independent Systems in a small number of key battles, including the campaigns of Sev'rance Tann and the Battle of Muunilinst, as well as the Battle of Geonosis itself that saw the opening shots of the galactic conflict. my version of a geonosian starfighter Quote
XimenaPaulina Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 I see you've smoothed out most of the surface studs of TLG's version with some slope/tile-work on this digital design, which is a nice improvement. I understand the use of the ball-&-socket for the laser cannon, the spherical shape is indeed more accurate than the disc-assembly on the official one, though I really wish it would have been a bit larger (nothing you could really do about that).

Solscud007 Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 How were you able to align the ball and socket? No matter how hard I try, the hemispheres never click in to the socket. Quote
XimenaPaulina Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 How were you able to align the ball and socket? No matter how hard I try, the hemispheres never click in to the socket. Oh yeah, I never realized you got the ball and socket assembly to work. Same here, I had trouble doing that also, especially when I did the LDD renders of my gunships. Quote
Brickdoctor Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 Nice work with this. How were you able to align the ball and socket? No matter how hard I try, the hemispheres never click in to the socket. No, if you look closely, half of the ball is sitting just in front of the socket. Quote

Fallenangel Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 thanks for the comments this is actually based on legos version i was originally going to try and reverse engineer the official set but it went wrong Yes, we can see that. I wonder where all the people complaining about the gap in the middle went. Quote

Legostein Posted April 17, 2011 Posted April 17, 2011 Hello! A nicely smoothed version of the Nantex Starfighter. I second my previous speaker. I'd appreciate a brick-built version as well! Cheers, ~ Christopher Quote

Steine Check Posted April 28, 2011 Posted April 28, 2011 It's difficult to imagine, as it looks in real Lego, but the design is very, very good! Quote
