| | Tantive IV MOC, My very own!
|
|
Here's my own! to fill my craving for LEGO's version. The greeblies are not exact, made them up as I went, this was done almost completely from my head, no references except a few glances at the Lego version. I think it may be a bit stubby, oh well.

|

This is an interesting subject! The structure you choose has a lot of subtle effects on the way your ship looks in the end. As a more pragmatic designer, I believe that the function defines form, and keep flourishes to a minimum. (...) One of the (...) (24 years ago, 27-Sep-01, to lugnet.space)

When I look at a lot of people's ships, they seem to use lateral cross-beams with either no spinal support or some to help manage stress on the frame... What I'm wondering is how effective is that for you guys? My largest ship (7 or 8 pounds) uses (...) (24 years ago, 24-Sep-01, to lugnet.space)

(...) Adrian, Great craft, looking at your SNOT building techniques I can understand why it would take you so long. I liked seeing the row of empty helmets, too, people seem to forget about space suit storage in their creations. Thanks, George (24 years ago, 24-Sep-01, to lugnet.space)

WOW! Now this is a beautiful model! ;-) I simply *love* the clean design Adrian! And the tracks look very cool; better than wheels. The interior is excellent, as well as the overall colour scheme. I commend you for using only one trans colour for (...) (24 years ago, 23-Sep-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build)
