[MOC] Ei-wing bomber

[Tijger-San]

To infinity and beyond! With her female crew and purple colours this Ei-wing may not look to intimidating but space cruisers beware! This is no ordinary bomber. She trows stinky bombs that smell like rotten eggs. Intoxicating her victims with a stench that can be smelled throughout the universe she is well known by her enemies and her allies! It is not uncommon that The Rogue Squadron asks for her help during a crisis.

For those who didn’t figure it out already, This ship is based on the Y-wing from Star Wars. The name Ei-wing is pronounced the same way as Y-wing. The name is meant to be a little joke since in dutch the word ’Ei' means egg.

This is my first spaceship since I was a kid (and that has been a while :P ) I’ve built it for a little Sci-fi contest organised by HJR Holland on Lowlug.nl. It’s my response to the Xyster from Ecclesiastes.

I tried to build it as stud less as possible. The entire bottom has bricks on it’s side or upside-down (except for the holes for the stands). It is a bit hard to photograph. Any suggestions on how to photograph it better or how to improve my creation are welcome!

Great look to it --like the panels have fallen off. roomy cockpit is always a plus. You might make the bottom greebles not stick out so much.

Thank you. It is quite hard to not let he bottom greebles stick out less thick, because it needs the stability for the stand but I'll keep it in mind.

Amazing moc, just love the curves and colours!

Those white axles just finish it off too.

Great job. :thumbup:
