|
|
Those crazy engineers at FreiTek have come up with a heavily modified scout version of the E-Wing fighter, the RE-Wing. It measures in at 12 meters long (using 6 studs = 1 meter) with a wing span of 9 meters. It has two custom heavy thrust fusion (...)

I'm not usually a fan of larger than minifig scale spacecraft, but this one is very nice. Lots of SNOT, lots of angles with seemless edges, and classic colors. The back of the craft, landing gear, and wing tip cannon designs are nicely done in Star (...) (20 years ago, 27-Oct-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.starwars, FTX)

(...) From a technical/construction perspective I really like the model. I really like how you were able to make all the angles mate-up cleanly as well as the ablilty to skin the entire model in tiles. I also like how you implemented the cockpit (...)

Thank you for your comments. I agree with you on the tile aspect - I wish Lego did make larger tiles. The only ones I know of are from their Scalia series and they only come in lime green and orange (as well as being very hard to find). I also, (...)

(...) Thank you! (...) The engines do look kinda wonky -- I admit that they were rushed. I may place them on the wing, like how they are on the actual E-wing. Thanks, B. (20 years ago, 29-Oct-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.starwars, FTX)

Such a nice model Bruce, I have been watching it on Brickshelf througout it's construction, one of the more interesting projects recently completed. Even though it doesn't exist as a real SW model,,, ;9 - Matthew (20 years ago, 31-Oct-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.starwars)
