My fighter squad entry into the Assemble the Fleet contest.
I decided to stick to the classic fighters that everyone knows and loves: the X-Wing and the Y-Wing. I tried to keep them as small as possible while keeping the main details, I think I did an alright job.

Well, I've been wanting to put together the Human Bomb since I got the new snowtrooper fig months ago. In the process of looking for reference images, I found this picture of the classic Earth-X team. So I made them!
They're not all the best - Bomb himself could definitely use the CMF Master Wu arms, and Firebrand and Phantom Lady are a little wonky - but I like how they turned out as a group!
On top: Doll Man and Ray.

I set myself the challenge of making a completely brick built tri-fighter. There are parts that exist that can be used to provide some extra details, but I like the challenge of replicating the effect in bricks.
I’ve always had a soft spot for this model- I was always quite impressed with the 2005 version that used the click hinges to create the semi-circular ‘wings’ which seemed quite unconventional back then. LEGO traditionally includes a buzz droid minifig with their version, so in that spirit, I asked MisterShramp if he could design a buzz droid to accompany my design. And he really stepped up to the challenge!
I originally thought about using bionicle shoulder armour parts to create the central sphere, but I settled on this design after experimenting with a number of other spherical parts.
The next challenge was to find suitable parts to recreate the semi-circular wings. I went through a number of different ideas- but many of the parts I could find didn’t have the right radius to match the original design. In the end I used bricks with studs on 4 sides with a rigid hose through the middle. The curved tiles help maintain the shape.
After tackling those two challenges, all the other details were pretty intuitive, and the build is surprisingly sturdy too.
The colour scheme also went through a few revisions. Each illustration/ concept art/ scale model I could find had some variation of blue and grey. In the end I went for this pretty subtle pattern. Any thing busier tended to draw attention to the (unavoidable) gaps in the construction of the semi-circles.

and instagram if you haven't already- he's got a bunch of really interesting ideas and instructions for his builds too!
The TENGU is a modified CORBEAU equipped with a long range railgun instead of a dual laser cannon. IT is built around a circular energy reactor allowing for extreme range, speed, shield and weapon generation. The TENGU carries a set of 4 EMP missiles to incapacitate targets, making targeting of weak point easier with its railgun.
Number 6 and last of this jetfighter run. my favorite color wise. I really enjoyed building these. :)
CORBEAUs are the most common fighters of the Red star air/space fleet. They are built around a circular energy reactor allowing for extreme range, speed, shield and weapon generation. They carry a dual laser cannon and a set of 4 air/air/ground missiles.
It fits a full fig. My favorite to swoosh around. :)

The Aurek-Wing starfighter was an experimental starfighter which resembled the shape of the first letter in the Aurebesh alphabet "Aurek". It was an extremely fast and agile fighter with similar features to the U-Wing fighter. Its most notable feature was its prong-like retractable wings or S-foils that could split apart at the front to switch from flight to attack mode, thereby increasing the size of the ship's deflector shields and the spread of its fire, which earned it the nickname of Scissor Fighter. It also featured retractable landing gear, a central fin, laser cannons on each wing and in front of the cockpit, large engines on each side, as well as a small thruster behind the cockpit.
This is my entry for the Star Wars X Building Contest on FBTB and since it's NnoVVember, I decided to make it a vic viper as well.
I hope this is not a seceret. Maybe its best I do not map this place:-)
It is of course a tourist attraction. The Draken has been out of service for quite some time now.
The Koemi is the modern light fighter deployed by the Asian Coalition. The ship is a solid hunk of circuits and weaponry; no airs and graces of aerodynamics or aesthetic design. A nimble pugilist, often found crammed efficiently into carrier craft. The ship was made after the disastrous fighter losses during the war.

LEGO math is the best. When I was a kid I never thought much about how the plates with hooks and the bars and other parts were actually engineered. It never occurred to me that they were specifically designed to work in multiple orientations, thanks to the original dimensions of the 1x1 brick.
It's pretty cool once you see it. This cockpit is cramped, but much more detailed than previous cramped cockpits.

This has been my project for several consecutive months now, and is a fighter inspired principally by Ikaruga (AMAZING game), but also more than a little by dasnewton's amazing Naganata, a purely stunning example of the power of this medium.
This build was extremely convoluted, has some delicacy, and has most of it's structure built off of only 2 studs-- while being one of my most robust and sturdy creations. It was incredibly difficult to construct the form that created itself in my mind, but I managed to pull it off to create my best work yet (by far), and I had an amazing time of it. C&C welcome.
The Seraph-class Superiority fighter was originally designed to be the prototype run for a series of mass-produced interceptor units, but as the four development prototypes and the singular frame archetype became more and more complicated, rising costs and a series of accidents cut the funding completely. The only surviving unit was the original frame, which was the only one modified to full specs. These specifications are highly classified, and a rumor has been floating around (despite the best efforts of the design team to quell it) that a fearsome secret weapon was added to the ship on top of it's already impressive capabilities. A single phrase, "Eternus Ira Obviam Deus", is the only record of any such hidden capability-- a weapon so powerful, it was never deployed in actual combat. The fighter is now sealed away in a location known to only one man, the last surviving remnant of a power beyond imagining.
The data gathered during it's construction and singular test flight was instrumental in the construction of a new line of spacecraft, though none would ever surpass it's complexity or potency....
...or something like that : D
Oh, and I forgot until recently to add this photo to a few groups. Sorry if that's any inconvenience :s
