Slave 1 Miniature MOC (Birthday Present)

Happy New Years Eve! I thought as a special post to celebrate the end of the year, I would share a present I made for my friend who's birthday is on December 31st, who is also a fan of Lego, specifically star wars.

This is a miniature MOC of the Slave 1, base color.


Now, I know this isn't up to Lego's standards, but since I am not Bill Gates, nor Jeff Bezos, or Black Panther, and cannot afford Lego's official GIGANTIC sets, I have to make due with what I have.


The Slave 1 most commonly flies like this, although I highly disagree with it. 


In order to get the windshield look, I took two 1x2 curved slopes, and put one on top, and the other on it's side


My model of the Slave 1 can also convert into the resting position, by just turning the guns on the back and the fins/wings. 


When building, I find it easier to build in sections, for instance the Slave 1 was built as a bottom layer and the part on top, as in the real ship everything seems to be sitting on top of a weirdly shaped curved oval.


And that's just about it. Happy Birthday to my unnamed friend, hope you like the Slave 1! If anyone has any questions of how I did certain parts, feel free to ask me in the comments.

See you in the new year 2020, and make sure to support my Lego Ideas project, Pacific Rim Custom Jaegers, in order to see it become a Lego Set(a dream of mine!). 

Until next time friends!

My First Post: Fighters and Distracters

Okay this is my very first post so don't blame me on mistakes. Here is my fighter class on mini spaceships (I will show how to build the first ship in a later post!) Here is the "Distracter" class of spaceships (I will also show how to build the long red ship later on!) Hope you liked my first post!

Starnight - Original Spacecraft

Hello and WELCOME to a new post from Legomatic! Last time we looked at a cutom Slave 1 moc, and today we're showcasing another Moc, The Starnight. If you are coming from Lego Ideas, welcome! If you are coming from Reddit, also welcome! Let's jump right in. A bit of backstory, I had to take apart my favorite Lego set of all time, set 70595 NINJAGO Ultra Stealth Raider for a school project. Once that happened, I couldn't let it's legacy go to shame. To let it live on, I built the Starnight, a space fighter built in the same style, that's sort of a shadow of the original set. The Starnight's dimensions are about 7.25"x 5.5" x 2.5" (in studs, about 23 x 17.5 x 8), so it's pretty small. Inside you can find a spacious cockpit, with enough room to comfortably seat 2 minifigures, 3 if you don't care about comfort. On either side is a 6 stud shooter, something which the original set also had. I might update some o...

Steampunk Sentry and AI! Lego Ideas Idea

Hello and welcome to a post from Legomatic, and today we'll be looking at my first attempt at building in Steampunk, a fantastical concept that is extremely fun to build in. If you are from Lego Ideas, please consider supporting my project, it would mean a lot. I imagine the story behind this, is that in the modern world, an old, fanatical AI developed back when steam engines were used in every device has watched the world develop before him. He is insulted by the gleaming, white, seamless devices and wants to bring back what once was. In order to make his dream reality, he has renovated one of his long dead masters projects into something a little more sinister, to exact his vision upon everyone else, whether they like it or not. Here is the machine, The ST33m 550, a walker armed with dual rodburn cannons. It runs off coal(of course), stored in a internal tank, which then heats rods of metal within to white hot temperatures, which are then expelled out the end, bu...
