Re: Something I\'ve been working on
It sort of reminds me of a Starship troopers ship, only not as long.

Re: Something I\'ve been working on
And Spoo wins the prize!!! Here's your cheese [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/Cheese.gif[/img]
A Phong BattleCruiser to be exact. The nose should have been longer but I under estimated supply of pieces when I started. Also, it should have been grey but not enough grey to do it properly. It was more an experiment build in creating a curved look than anything else. Trickier than you'd think.
For comparison:

Re: Something I\'ve been working on
Aside from the bright appearance I thought it was a pretty good representation.

Re: Something I\'ve been working on
It's phong-ish in shape (I should know I use that shipset) but the coloration is off. If it was all grey it would be a dead ringer. Personally, I was wracking my brains trying to remember if there were any ships colored like that from the MOO series.

If it makes you feel any better, I thought it was a Phong ship, but I only looked in this thread just now.
Looks real good! Care to try your hand at a "LegPhong" shipset or something? I know I'd want to download those yellow rocks if they were made of plastic bricks

Re: Something I\'ve been working on
Yeah, I tried to get it in grey but when I seperated all my grey, it wouldn't have worked.
Since doing this I have been thinking about a lego shipset. Building the ships, taking the pics and converting that to a shipset. but if I do that it won't be based on any existing shipset.
