Wow! Three space MOCs in a day. I may have to stop claiming not to be much of a space fan.

The B’Omar and F’Omar Deep Space Fighters are microscale fighters clearly inspired by a certain Star Wars set... not necessarily a set that you might think would inspire deep space fighter design.

The B’Omar is the lighter of the two, mounting a light superturbolaser at the end of each of its three spacefoils. The B’Omar is a general purpose fighter, equally at home pursuing, patrolling and dogfighting. Had the Rebel Alliance had a few of these, the battle of Yavin IV would have been over a lot sooner, and with the loss of a lot less blood (rebel blood that is, the imperial losses would have been at least the same).


   

The F’Omar is a heavy attack fighter. It is the axe, where the B’Omar is the scalpel. Sure it can move and dodge, but in the end it’s the heavy hitting power of two banks of four megasuperturbolasers, supplemented by two heavy proton torpedo launchers, and a single superturbolaser on its dorsal spacefoil.


   


I am currently building the A’Omar Battlestation - a light attack carrier, which will transport and resupply four B’Omar and two F’Omar Deep Space Fighters.

More pics of both fighters here, post moderation.

(...) Indeed! These are two very cool little micro-fighters.. they look like they would be fun to depict in minifig scale. I look forward to your carrier ship! these are fun! -Lenny (20 years ago, 22-Feb-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
