Project HAVE SHIVER


Justin Vaughn aka Mainman has created Project HAVE SHIVER for the "Real World Starfighter" contest occurring in the Starfighters group on Flickr. This industrial monstrosity is about as real world as it gets. Who needs aerodynamic and sleek spacecraft when there is no atmosphere to be aerodynamic in? Who needs wings at all? The copious use of flex tubing, lightsaber handles and droid arms makes for a more believable support structure than any prefab pieces could. Buffing the printing off the Naboo planet from set #9674 makes those pieces more universally usable than if they were left printed. Justin also has a few pictures of the loadout and descriptions of the different areas of the ship. I especially enjoy the back view as well. There's also a quite detailed description for the photo to match the details of the ship. I would definitely have to give this one of the top votes in the contest so far.

The Sparrowhawk



One thing that makes a great starfighter stand out from the rest is the angles, and  flickr user Bricking It does a good job at pulling this off! After impressing us all with the LL-828 Wildgoose, Bricking It pulled out another cool neo classic space creation, the Sparrowhawk. This build is a mid-sized starfighter, great for cruising the galaxy, and is reinforced with heavy armor. You can see more, here!

Falling Skies

Neptune- (BiS) While sleekness can often be a great factor in separating the good MOCs from the great, this amazing spacecraft by OUdaveguy98 has enough smoothness to make it great eye-candy, but enough jaggedness to make it believable as a rough-and-tumble NCS ship that could hold its own in a dog fight. The blue colouring creates a great standout from the grey, while the trans-yellow cockpit and bumblebee stripes give it that NCS flair. And it comes with cup holders, standard!
