RenegadeClone Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 Hi guys :) Just thought I would share some photos of my WIP Rebel Alliance hangar / base. This is an ongoing project to house my starfighter squadron. The hangar bay is nearly complete, with the exception of a wall, walkway, pipes, crane etc. The ceiling of the bay is lit with Power Function LED lights. The base is supposed to be underground with the hangar carved out of a natural cavern. The upper level of the base includes the command and control centre, and the briefing room which is still under construction. I intend to add further rooms (medical bay, pilots mess, etc) eventually. Additionally, I am planning to add a surface landscape layer above the base . Enjoy! As usual comments and criticisms are welcomed ! I will keep you guys posted on my progress! Quote
Ritz Brick Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 I love how everything looks very hectic and rushed, typical of the Alliance. Could we get a better picture of your Y-Wing, she's a beaut. Quote
Brickdoctor Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 So...why are you posting pictures out of the flickr stream of EB member Renegade Clone? Quote
RenegadeClone Posted January 26, 2014 Author Posted January 26, 2014 So...why are you posting pictures out of the flickr stream of EB member Renegade Clone? I am his older brother. We both work on models together. Sorry for the confusion. He normally posts but I logged in with my account accidentally. Quote

Hope you got the message BrickDoctor. Quote
lord raphael Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 Great hangar.Rebel swine! You shall not life to see the dawn! Wise words from Darth Vadar. Quote
Renegade Clone Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 Posted some better photos of the Rebel forces which populate this base in the 'Show your army' thread - LINK Quote

Very nice work on the hangar; it looks like it'll be the perfect way to showcase all those beautiful starfighters you've built. I especially like the patterns in the floor and the transition from the natural rockwork to the smooth hangar walls. Quote

Lots of work still to go on this, but the fun is in adding new details and continuing building! Quote
TWP Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 I like it! Those coloured fighters give the scene just the color it needs. They are all old designs right? They are great anyways :) The hangar sort of reminds me to the echo base, was that intentionally? One question, though, what is that pillar under the big wing on the B-wing? Quote
Manx Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 Great MOC! I really like your custom starfighters! Quote
santapj Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 Just amazing. The look of the hangar interior is spot-on and I love how the control room has "cobbled together" elements to break up its perceived cleanness. Quote
Jody Meyer Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 nothing but sweetness, great job to the both of you. Quote
Chills Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 Really cool MOC. I especially like the detail in the control room. I also really dig the hangar section with the X and Y-Wings, notably the ceiling and your use of upside-down plates. Quote
Kelso Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 (edited) Great hangar, I love the detailed control room and different colored A-Wings. Edited January 26, 2014 by Kelso Quote
Diaaabo Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 Great scene, I especially like the etnic diversity of your pilots and troops Quote
Phoib Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 How is the X-wing supposed to leave its berth, with that walkway in front? Other than that, a very cool MOC Quote
Nom Carver Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 You have some very nice vehicles over there, and the entire scene looks great! Quote
Brickdoctor Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 How is the X-wing supposed to leave its berth, with that walkway in front? The movable gantry is actually kind of standard for X-wing hangars. I think it originated in Empire. (Even TLG's latest Echo Base set has one.) Quote
TheBear Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 This is looking brilliant, I can see how much time and money you have put into it already. The floor is really nice, it reminds me of the patchwork hanger floor from Home One in Return of the Jedi. The minifigures are looking excellent, the diversity makes it much more interesting. I have wanted to do something similar myself but haven't yet made the investment. I have always been a big fan of your ships, your "snubfighters" image was what inspired me to build my own. I started with Psiaki's X-Wing (after seeing your version) and then went on to build your B-Wing. I know you built the B-Wing years ago now but it is still the best minifigure scale model out there. I look forward to seeing how the hanger progresses. Quote
Gremer Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 This is brilliant! Not only is it a great MOC, it's also a great way to store your sets in a MOC. Quote
Artizan Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Great moc! Have you considered to make the hangar bay carved into an astroid? Quote
Ki-Adi-Mundi Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Really impressing MOC! You spent a lot of love into details! BTW, where did you get the red, decorated Twi'Lek head part from? Quote
korpen4444 Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 BTW, where did you get the red, decorated Twi'Lek head part from? It's from Arealight. I love this MOC! The custom Y-wings are my favorites! Quote
Lobot Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Thanks for sharing this, I'm looking forward to seeing the final version Quote
