Finally, I may proudly present to you: The Type 48 Assault gun carriage, better known as Revenant, from Halo Reach.
In search for an appropriate counterpart to my Warthog I choose this one from the small group of volunteers.
I don't like the Prowler for aesthetic reason ( it is quite useful in-game, but the Chopper looks way cooler ).
The design of the Spectre is absolutely "covenant" with lots of curves, which I thought would be hard to realise ( but I still have that in mind, don't worry ... ).
Well, I still suffered some deep psychological trauma from THIS very special project.
The design of the Revenant uses less curves ( or at least less pronouced ones ) and partially flat armour plates, but if you have a closer look to the outer surface, you will recognise some interesting tilts and twists.
Many nights were spent with wracking my brain about this and that.
I began with the cannon and it turned out as it is now. Maybe it should be mentioned, that 99% of the designing were done with the LDD ( there is a significant lack of unused bricks within these walls ). Doing all the work on the screen only is terrible. From my experience I can tell, that it is essential to play with the bricks from time to time ( but whom I'm telling this ).
When my PC broke down six weeks ago my "Yeah-lets-build-a-Revenant"-mood went with it. I spent some a lot of time with my girl-friend ( the love goes always first ) and when the new term begans I dare to look at that monster again.
At last, I stuffed all those "ideas" in a sac and drowned them in the Gera ( the river that flows through Erfurt ). Then I took the idea I had in mind first ( months ago ) et voilą :

Very, VERY good!!! However, I feel like the mortar, though excellently detailed, is a bit large and... fork-like? (Sorry, I know how tough it is to make things large, detailed, AND game-accurate with only Legos) |

Excellent! You have certainly spent a lot of time working on the details of this build. That cannon is brilliant, and so are your ideas for the cockpit. The overall look is really cool too. I have a massive build due to be finished in a couple of weeks and it will have no where near the amount of relevant detail you have managed to squeeze in to this. Well done :-) |

It could have more fluid curves but its certainly better than anything i could do!
Yes, I know, but covenant curves are quite difficult with most of the bricks having a cuboid shape. |

WOW! Thea shape is perfect, and so is the size. The detail put into it is AMAZING! This is probably the best revenant on mocpages! |

You captured the shape well, but it seems too big. I think a Revenant will be my next project. |

The part at the back looks a little big but other than that this is amazing. |

This isn't too bad. I really like the greebles on the sides. And I know just how you feel about the minifigure hands, I was feeling very much the same way after I did it for the first time. But you get used to it pretty quickly, and now I use them constantly. Actually, I'm having a hard time NOT using minifig hands in my creations. Thanks for the comments on Play With Fire and The Staircase, really appreciate it. Keep up the good work. |
