Droid Tri-Fighter

This has got to be one of the Separatist army's coolest ships! It had such little screen time in Revenge of the Sith that I actually didn't notice it the first few times I watched the movie. After getting the original 2005 set, the design grew on me, and I still love it to this day. Sand blue is one of my favourite Lego colours, so naturally this was really exciting to design and build. While I am not usually a fan of stickers on mocs, I thought they were necessary in this circumstance given the vehicle is covered in markings. However, you can leave the stickers out and it looks just as good, some may find it even looks better. For the three engine casings I decided to stick with the same parts as Lego had used in set 7252, as they are the perfect piece for the job, and capture the shaping really nicely. The aspect i'm most happy with is probably how compact looking it turned out, with minimal gaps between the segments. Anyway, i'm really pleased with the final outcome, and hope that you guys all like it to.

 

Cheers!
