Or what not to do with your lego creations.
About this creation
Well after a day of fun detailing, what happens? I drop the engine section, thus learning that my two part scheme was a BAD IDEA. I almost cried.
An hour later...
Easy to solve, tho. Where I had technic 1x2 that would be connected with a pin, i replaced them with a 2x2 brick. Then I changed the roof and the bottom details for extra support and WALLA, a structurally sound spaceship.
Well, all except those engine "wings". But I'll leave them as they are. easy to fall of - easy to put back together!
I was going to devote this to interior details, but most of it is already done, except the bridge.
After this, all I have to do is finish up the warp nacelles, and we've got the Eastern Block's largest and meanest ship yet!

An easy way to tell how well you've built something is to drop it. in this case, not built very well.

well, an hour of rebuilding and I tackle the bridge. you know, just one missile to the bridge and you take down the whole shebang.

i really like this bridge. Simple, yet interesting. not as big as i originally expected it to be, tho. (btw, notice my NEW UNIFORM!)

underside, with new landing gear. sure it's smaller, but it's alot more stable and easy to work with.

technical research station in the gunner room. it's such a big room for two gunner stations, but oh well.

I don't understand why everyone says "walla". Don't they know it's "voilą"? No offense, though. That is one COOL MOC, though. Awesome. Five stars. |

I like it. I just wish I had enough parts to build more ships. Most of my pieces are tied up in the ships I have now and I don't want to destroy them. Good design and nice colors. Sweet. |
