Void Stalkers Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 I have no money... but I wanted a Thunderhawk. so after finding the model dimensions online, I built this as close to the Forgeworld model as I could. it does deviate to compensate for my lack of parts though Front: rear: turbolaser closeup: and hatches closeup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watcher in the Dark Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 LOL. Great job with that! I plan on building mine out of card and bitz but yours has that lego charm. Wanna know the silliest part? If that were an actual Lego kit... It would cost almost as much as FW's TH. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadorius Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 LOL. Great job with that! I plan on building mine out of card and bitz but yours has that lego charm. Wanna know the silliest part? If that were an actual Lego kit... It would cost almost as much as FW's TH. ;) Nah, not even close. Lego's Ultimate Collector's Series Star Destroyer had over 3000 pieces and it was less than half as much as a FW Thunderhawk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hemal Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 Ah yes - I love the Ultimate collection SD. I have teh "normal" SD at home - which cost nigh on £125 when I purchased it. Might use it as a SM cruiser in Epic ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Void Stalkers Posted July 18, 2011 Author Share Posted July 18, 2011 haha, thanks all ;) either of those Star Destroyers would be worth it, I almost drool with the thought of what vehicles could be built from such troves of matching parts!

Void Stalkers Posted July 21, 2011 Author Share Posted July 21, 2011 hrm... Reaver... I don't really have the pieces to build a Reaver :huh: but the thought of a monster like that built from Legos makes me want to hit Ebay for large collections. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Captain Sharp Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 hrm... Reaver... I don't really have the pieces to build a Reaver :) but the thought of a monster like that built from Legos makes me want to hit Ebay for large collections. :rolleyes: Once upon a time, I started a Reaver.

dustermaker Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 To be honest, that plus some plasticard and greenstuff.......wow never really thought about legos as a base for scratch building. It is pretty much a perfect combo! Great job on the Thunderhawk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
