Popular Post dimnico Posted September 27, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted September 27, 2016 Hi guys, so I have finished another micro moc landscape. This time its of one of my favourite scenes from The Force Awakens. The crashed Star Destroyer is such an iconic image from not only the film but the trailers as well that I just had to make it in lego form. I am really pleased with Rey's speeder. I didn't think I would be able to build it at this scale but actually I think this is a pretty good representation. At only eight pieces I dont think its going to get any smaller either! (I did have one version with one less stud at the back but it looked too blocky) The Star Destoryer is a slight variation on a polybag release with a few tweaks. I was going to design my own from scratch but actually once I built this I felt the look, size and dimensions were pretty much there and just needed a few extra bits added. Overall I am really pleased with this build but as always I would love to hear your feedback and advice. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregpj Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 First of all, Rey's speeder is brilliant. Second, your mocs are all wonderful .. working at that scale must be a challenge. You put most of the little scenes LEGO has released for Star Wars to shame. On this one though, any way you can dip the nose of the Star Destroyer into the sand? The angle is a little off... PS Next challenge .. add a busted up x-wing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exciter1 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 The collector/scavenger in me always wants to go out looking for a crashed OT vehicle in the neighborhood after watching these scenes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say this every time but I love building at this scale and trying to see how much detail I can get onto a 16x16 base! AND...it is such a bug bear of mine that the star destroyer isn't buried more! I am a stickler for detail and I totally agree the angle is off. I realized this when I was about half way through and it was such a jigsaw puzzle trying to get all these arches into place that I was really torn between starting again or living with it! (this was after the third attempt too!) I have a few more scenes I want to do and then maybe I will revisit one day! I love the idea of the busted xwing though and think I have the parts already to add that in! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manse1001 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Awesome moc again Dimtiri! Such detail on such a small scale. When I get a spare weekend I plan to try and replicate some of these with my son, they'll look great on my desk in the office!! Keep up the great work!
