Sacrifice - until you have witnessed a Katari die for his own kind, you will never know the glory of their race.
In the cold outreaches of space, an empire silently swells. Deep within the looming silhouette of the Katari battle station, Destiny watches as the Katari engineer the most deadly battle cruiser of the galaxies. Stretching an enormous 1,300 meters, the empty frame of the giant sleeps soundly amidst the droning of alien technology inside the great chamber. To the Katari, great honor comes with great sacrifice, and such high honor was bestowed upon a select few of the Katari who will dedicate themselves to the epic battle cruiser project. These honored ones will remain inside the great chamber until the project is completed. Meter by meter, the Katari installed the armor on the prototype. Wire by wire, they connected the systems of the ship. Fourteen cumbersome years of progress saw the completion of the battle cruiser. At last, the gates of the great chamber opened and the remainder of the engineers, having aged markedly while others have passed away, set sail on their most glorious flight. For the first time, the beings of the Katari race saw of the signature vessel of their empire. To demonstrate the awe-inspiring power of the battle cruiser, an immense asteroid the size of a small moon was directed into the firing range of the deadly destroyer. As the looming goliath unyieldingly coursed towards the ship, it was met with an enormous energy blast from the main cannon of battle cruiser that instantly obliterated its target. From this demonstration the Katari War Hammer was born. Now, with the completion of the Katari battle station, 68 War Hammers serve the mighty empire. A time of glory has come...
My first build in quite sometime. A microscale space transport robot. I envision 100's of these guys lugging fuel tanks and cargo at some kind of spaceport
Some time ago I give this gift to my wife: www.flickr.com/photos/lbaixinho/45721378205
Now we are building a new house in that place. To see how the house and , mainly, the terrain will be, I made this small MOC.

This shuttle is designed to transport travelers from the surface of Mars to the orbital station.
It has been hardest to build this little shuttle than I thought. Even now there is something that doesn't like me but I don't know what it is.
It's been awhile since I built a microscale spaceship. They're great for when you don't have a lot of time to build, but want to get something accomplished. They're also great for using small, but really cool looking pieces.
This is a mini LEGO terrace house built for some dear friends of ours as a housewarming present. Back garden comes complete with shed, dog, decking and slide!

I built a little UD4 dropship from Aliens, more or less copying a design I stumbled across by jediwannabe on brickshelf (2 dark bley ones were dismantled for parts but this survives as a template)
From the left is an SA-43 (more of those to follow) and 3 ISSCV's from Space Above & Beyond. Ok, I'm mixing different film universe's but I love these things. I was going to start a microscale military base later this year, but work has commenced already on some bits and pieces.
I don't dabble much in microscale, but it's always fun when I do.
God knows what scale these are in, but a person would be roughly the size of a technic half pin, maybe slightly smaller.
The black ones are attached to a Spec Ops team by the way, hence the colour.

Spaceship of the Adeiffen-Class Ultra-Heavy Battle Cruiser
Affiliation: Jixnor Democracy, Concero Republic
Manufacturer: Jixn Shipyard
Length/beam/draft: [scale???]
Armor/shield level: /Class 3
Sublight engines/lightspeed engines:
Sublight speed/lightspeed:
Range: 477 days or 210 days with two Marine Groups.
Crew: 675, plus 1,450 pilots and fighter craft service personal, plus two Marine Groups with 2,500 men each, or a total of 7,125 men.
Armament: 576x 1in laser cannons, 48x 3in laser cannons in double turrets, 24x 32in Hinton laser cannons, 4x burst laser cannons, and up to 1,000 fighter craft (200 are emergency defense fighters).
The Adeiffen-Class Ultra-Heavy Battle Cruiser is arguably the strongest warships in the galaxy and was the Concero Republics strongest vessel until the Tramendant-Class Battlecruiser. Its original design dates back to the First Piracy War when UPS forces (Union of Planetary States) called for a large battle cruiser capable of launching at least five-hundred fighter craft into battle. Jixn Shipyards jump at the chance to build such a ship. However, the Jixn Shipyard design was declined by UPS forces, and instead they went with the battle tested Tronde Shipyards new [name] battlecruiser. The Adeiffen design went into the “designers vault” and there it stayed for almost a century. During the Second Piracy War the Jixnor Democracy realized that it was lacking a true, modern battle cruiser capable of flagship status – so it called its most trusted shipwright, Jixn Shipyards, to manufacture a large battle cruiser. Jixn Shipyard struggled to find a design capable of accomplishing everything the Jixnor Democracy called for. After many agonizing weeks of failed designs and sleepless nights the Jixn Shipyard board of design, in desperation, began looking at all its failed and past designs in the “designers vault” and stumbled onto the plans of the Adeiffen-Class battle cruiser. Jixn Shipyard greatly changed the ships interior, but did little to the exterior except add four burst cannons and addition point defense systems. The century old Adeiffen was an amazingly modern design.
The Adeiffen-Class has the amazing capability to carry over one-thousand fighter craft and their pilots. This is all due to the Adeiffens large hanger bay that runs almost the entire length of the ship. This impressive amount of fighter craft gives the Adeiffen an enormous advantage over the conventional battle cruiser. But the large hanger bay and numerous fighters do come at a cost of decreased fire power and power in general, and more facilities are needed to house the pilots and service crews for the fighter craft. The large amount of fighter craft also call for a large control center to insure all one-thousand fighter craft are use efficiently and run smoothly. Thus the Adeiffen has a second bridge located toward the bow of the craft, right above the hanger bay doors. This second bridge is larger than the primary bridge and is used exclusively for fighter craft purposes.
Like all Jixnor warships the Adeiffen has exceptional maneuverability, a fast lightspeed engine and slow sublight speed. It does however, lack two of the key staples of many Jixnor warships, the ability fly in an atmosphere, and missile tubes. The Adeiffen was the most maneuverable battlecruiser until the America-Class Battlecruiser (which really was a mini-battlecruiser and not a true battlecruiser). The Adeiffen could run circles around older Trynin warships, and was more maneuverable than most Trynin frigates. One of the reasons for the Adeiffens exceptional maneuverability is due to its external engine braking systems which can redirect the ion thrust up to ninety degrees and with the help of magnetic thrust vectors it can redirect the ion thrust up to one-hundred thirty degrees. These thrust vectors allow the Adeiffen to have a high reverse speed.
The weapons aboard the Adeiffen are formidable to say the least. Twenty-four Hinton cannons all effectively positioned to provide an pure fire arc give the Adeiffen no blind spots to speak of – and as if that’s not enough the Adeiffen has over six-hundred point defense systems! The Adeiffen is also one of the first Concero Republic vessels that supports the new burst cannons without any modifications.
The Adeiffens two bow appendages house the battery banks, the communications array, numerous sensor arrays, and housing for up to two marine groups. The aft appendages house the engines, additional living quarters, and batter banks for the lightspeed engine. The appendages are vital to the survival of the vessel which makes them prime targets in battle; but they are more than adequately armored, and the Adeiffen can more than manage if one or even two are destroyed. Another amazing thing about the Adeiffen is that its appendages are easily interchangeable between ships. This allows heavily damaged Adieffen-Class vessels to be repaired rather than scrapped, it also allows for faster repair time. It does however allow for some colorful mismatches and since most Jixnor captains are zealous when it comes to their ships many Adeiffen-Class vessels, when idol, are in a shipyard getting a paint job done.
Approximately twenty Adeiffen-Class Ultra-Heavy Battlecruisers were built and only two were destroy (but not forgot for the two destroyed vessels were stripped of their appendages which serve aboard other Adeiffen-Class vessels). Only two subgroups were manufacture, the Adeiffen-Class Ultra-Heavy Battlecruiser which is the one being described, and the other the Amaffen-Class Ultra-Heavy Battlecruiser. Nineteen Adeiffen-Class cruisers and one Amaffen-Class cruiser were built. The Amaffen is a slightly larger version of the Adeiffen and feature over twelve-thousand fighter craft, a class four shield generator, and eight additional Hinton cannons; it also feature a more efficient power supply and an upgraded electronic systems. The Amaffen served as the Jixnor Democracy’s flagship during the entire Agronomic War but was replace by the Rander (a Tramendant-Class Battlecruiser) once the war ended. However, in the event the Rander is called upon by the Concero Republic, there is no doubt that the Amaffen will once again serve as the Jixnor Democracy’s flagship.
An Adeiffen-Class vessel has served in every single battle during the Agronomic War, including both Battles of Blandimen and the invasion of Est Fellen. It served the Concero Republic well during the Agronomic War and there is no doubt that it will continue to serve the Jixnor Democracy and its allies for years to come. The Jixnor Democracy is currently updating the current fleet of Adeiffen-Class vessels with new electronics and more efficient power supplies. There are even rumors that the Jixnor Democracy plans on increasing the Adeiffen fleet from eighteen vessels to forty-eight! The Adeiffen will no doubt be around long enough to squelch whatever adversary crosses the Jixnor Democracy!
Based on a rescue vehicle model built in the brick just this evening. I adapted the design into this using LDD, exported into Bricksmith, edited the model, and snapped this shot with LDView.
I have a few models I need to photograph, but haven't had much time to clean up the LEGO room. My apologies for being so inactive lately.

The Memmor-Class Heavy Battle Cruiser is the only one in existence and is the largest custom made warship created. It was manufactured by the Trynin Empire through Tronde Shipyards shortly after the First Piracy War. It was then presented as a gift to the monarchy of Jixnor for their tremendous support to the Trynin Empire’s war on Piracy.
The interior of the Memmor is extravagantly detailed with some of the galaxies finest works. It serves as the Jixnor monarchy’s personal transport. The Memmor has a large auditorium for large political hearings and many smaller such rooms for private meetings. It has been the home of many trade agreements, surrenders, two PTA meetings, and numerous (Jixnor) senate sessions. It also serves as a ceremonial vessel. An estimated replacement cost of the Memmor is estimated at over eight-thousand Inets.
In addition to its ceremonial and political purposes, the Memmor boast a powerful array of twelve Hinton cannons (eight after the four center ones were replaced with Burst cannons). She was the most powerful battleship in the galaxy for over forty years! Besides being one of the strongest vessels in the galaxy, the Memmor is also one of the oldest. She’s seen over ten upgrades and numerous changes over her lifetime. The Memmor served as the Jixnor Democracy’s flagship for over sixty years.
Besides the eight Hinton cannons and four Burst cannons the Memmor has two large, bow based missile tubes. Each tube is capable of storing a wide range of projectiles and special weapons including a ninety-six inch laser cannon, over two-thousand GSGRs (General Sensor Guided Rockets), eight Hafe missiles, or two Welleron Nenno A1 missiles. Rumors have been circulating that her missiles bays could be converted into a hanger bay for over fifty aircraft. However these rumors are false as the Jixnor her overseers would never sacrifice the Memmor’s powerful array of missiles for a few fighter-craft.
The Memmor original didn’t feature a shield generator. Instead it had extensive amour plating. On each of its six hard points (or corner points) it had five feet thick Steng steel shaped into the Jixnor monarchy’s favorite animal – the horse. These corner Steng armor plates in addition with the two feet thick armor plating made the Memmor the most heavily armored Pre-Agronomic War vessel. However, shortly before the Agronomic War began she was refitted with a level three shield generator.
After the Second Piracy War the Memmor was issued a mysterious yet similar escort ship, the Durror Class Light Battle Cruiser. Little is known about the Durror except that she is also a one of a kind battleship and that she never leaves the side of the Memmor.
The Memmor saw no combat in the Second Piracy War but was used over the planet [] to intercept a band of pirates – her mere presence caused the band to surrender. She was also used as a support ship during the Battle of []. However, during the Agronomic War the Memmor and her escort were issued numerous war missions and was present and active at the Battle of Blandimen. The Memmor is credited with the destruction of seven Trynin warships and over eight-thousand Trynin fighter-craft.
The Rander now serves as the Jixnor Democracy’s military flagship but the Memmor still serves as the Jixnor Democracy’s unofficial, ceremonial flagship. Since the Rander’s creation the Memmor has been moved from frontline status to reserve status and some say she has seen the last of combat. However, during a rebellion on the planet [] the Memmor was the only operational warship in the area and was able to squelch the uprising. Saving the galaxy from another galactic war! No matter what status the Memmor is in she will always serve as the face of the Jixnor Democracy.
This is my first published work in many years. I'm just now getting back into the art of Lego. In fact it's been so long that I really needed to steal an idea from an idol of mine: Mr Yoder. You'll find his original space freighter (The Gluchiche Reise) here
Since I don't know Mr Yoder, nor do I know how this will show up on flicker, I can't be sure how he'd feel about me using his work as a guide. I hope it's flattering and worthy.

Another microship for my galery. I've discover I like to build this little MOCs when I haven't enought time or I'm thinking how to build bigger things.
Otra micronave para mi galería. He descubierto que me encanta hacer estas pequeñas creaciones cuando no tengo tiempo o estoy pensando como hacer cosas más grandes.
A product of years of modification, The Daresay'd is a half-freighter, half-gunship of meticulous and difficult design. The reactor runs right through the middle, four independently tiltable engines slaved closely to it, able to transfer power to it and each other at will. The pilot and the co-pilot sit in rather cramped conditions above this set-up, the latter responsible solely for power management and boost manipulation. Carrying on the theme, the ship has two tracking ion turrets, effective against fighters, other gunships and smaller capital vessels.
The personal steed of the Dread Pirate Val'sofilees, The Daresay'd is spoken of in hushed tones throughout the fringes of the galaxy. Sometimes travelling alone, but often with two highly trained swingwing outriders, most freighter captains drop their cargo and run at the sight of the ship's IFF signal alone.

Aside from the Earthling colonists and pioneers, the Galactic Rim is populated by several indigenous species. The mammalian Oroso evolved space travel fifty years after the human race. However, unlike humanity, the discovery of the stars and faster-than-light travel quickly brought the many nations of the Oroso together moving towards the same cause.
Fast forward to present day, and the Oroso Conclave is one of the most stable presences in the area. With several sites of asteroid mining and an expanding colony sector, protection is provided by the Astro-Oroso. Their naval mainstay is the Jnai'tk-class Light Cruiser, a ship-to-ship specialist. Solidly built with old fashioned multi-barrel fragmentation cannons and overlapping armour plates, the Vorq-snk packs real bang for it's proverbial buck. Able to go toe-to-toe with pirate capital ships and Wun'Tux clanships, the J'nai'tk has little anti-fighter weaponry to speak of and can be isolated by intelligent use of snubfighter squadrons in opposition.
Length: 81m
Crew: 52
Manufacturer: The Astro-Oroso Naval Combine.
Weaponry:
2 x Long Range Mass Drivers (fore)
2 x Multi-Barrel Fragmentation Cannons (turret, port and starboard)
1 x STS Dual Barrel Fusion Cannon
Defences: Overlapping Duranium Armour Plates
