Ras 74 Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 An epic build! Well worth mention in the Jedi archives for sure. So many great details to the build. I am just stunned. Great work!! Quote
CaptainBermuda Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 this is an amazing build, I especially am impressed with the lightsaber lights. Quote
spacepilot3000 Posted October 31, 2011 Author Posted October 31, 2011 Oh my goodness! I have to say a galactic big THANK YOU! for all this fantasic awesome feedback! THAT I've never thought... Thank you Eurobricks, this is a great confirmation for me and my project. You'll never guess how many Bothans I had to kill, to get every information confidential till the end of my work ;-) As a little update, I want to show you a short shot of the diorama, attached with the acrylic cover, and placed in my working (Lego) room: And now the secret (what's no real secrect) about the glowing light saber. I have pictures from the first version of my diorama, but the technic behind getting glowing swords is the same as actually used ;-) I used white very small SMD LED's from our german shop "Conrad Electronics". i think you should get SMD LEDs worldwide... In the next step I drilled 1mm holes into the light saber handles: The SMD LED fits to the original LEGO intake for the transparent part of the saber: At last I fixed both parts with one drop of cyanoacrylate adhesive, but it also works fine without this step, if you don't shake the whole thing too much. Voila! Give it power, a 470Ohm resistor and 12V, and it glows fine! Regards, Spacepilot3000 Quote
Masked Builder Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 One hundred percent amazing. It looks even better with the LEDs. I can't tell from the pictures but how far is this raised up from the ground? Quote
Praiter Yed Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 I'm finding it difficult to appreciate how big that must actually be. Absolutely fantastic Quote
spacepilot3000 Posted October 31, 2011 Author Posted October 31, 2011 One hundred percent amazing. It looks even better with the LEDs. I can't tell from the pictures but how far is this raised up from the ground? We have 88cm from the ground to the bottom of the base plate, and over all with cover it as a height of 1,29m. The socket is made of table legs, acrylic plates and a selfmade plotted StarWars sticker. Quote
Mr Man Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Your LEGO room is awesome. I concur, the TIE shelves are great . Quote
spacepilot3000 Posted October 31, 2011 Author Posted October 31, 2011 Your LEGO room is awesome. I concur, the TIE shelves are great . Okay, something more for you... "UCS collector, I am..." Quote
Mr Man Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Wow I never noticed how big the shuttle was, until then. Incredible collection spacepilot3000 . Quote
Hiawatha Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 (edited) This is incredible! I really like the amount of detail you put into the dock. I even noticed that you added an extra wheel on R2-D2. You have a wonderful collection as well. Edited October 31, 2011 by Hiawatha Quote
zero1312 Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 I'm literally speechless on this creation. The details, the sheer scale, everything is perfect. :thumbup: Quote
Cpt. Dan Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 I had the following reaction: Shock, taking the details in, and soaking in what is the one of the best SW MOCs I have ever seen. This is incredible. All of the detail... The scenes, attention to the specifics. Amazing!! I am not sure words could fully justify this MOC. Amazing work. I must say my favorite part is the skeleton though that is an awesome touch. Wonderful work! Quote
De Sandman Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 (edited) This is amazing, the detailling , it's to bad i don't have SW-lego's....but still i can't make something this beautifull Edited November 1, 2011 by De Sandman Quote
apemax Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 Wow. This must be one of THE best Star Wars MOCs i've ever seen. every thing is perfect. Truly well done. :thumbup: Quote
seba Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 This is awesome!The wet floor thing is really funny. .I find it odd that Luke is smiling.I am starting a mini version of this same scene. Quote
primitiv Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 Jesus Christ man, what a collection!!!! The MOC is astonishing as it is but the whole room - WWOOWW! It blew me away! There are some really nice UCS models out there, and I see one of my favourites the Y-wing on one of the pics. Brilliant work with the MOC! Quote
mrfootball Posted November 2, 2011 Posted November 2, 2011 (edited) Great display btw. Are those IKEA shelves and curio cabinets? I was in IKEA the other day and noticed some that looked like that and thought they would be great for displaying Lego. Great setup, thanks for sharing pics of your outstanding Lego room. I hope to setup something along those lines. Edited November 2, 2011 by mrfootball Quote

I hope to setup something along those lines. Yes, cabinets and shelves are "Expedit" and "detolf" from IKEA . This Expedit stuff is perfect for displaying LEGO, and it is also possible to reconstruct the shelves. Quote
Vindice Posted November 2, 2011 Posted November 2, 2011 please do a brickfilm in this amazing scenery!!! I use the IKEA units too for my sons bedroom. Great for Lego displays. Quote
The Batman Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 (edited) That is one fantastic MOC, words cannot describe the awe I'm in !!! Terrific work Have to say, I'm certainly jealous, I don't think I could ever build something of that size and detail, No but seriously fantastic work, Edited November 3, 2011 by The Batman Quote
Toa_Of_Justice Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 Awesome, simply awesome! The wet floor gag was hilarious. I wonder though: is that skeleton supposed to be someone in particular, or just some random dead guy? -Toa Of Justice Quote
eurospec Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 Absolutely mind blowing. I could only ever dream of making something as awesome as this! Quote
