A heavy fighter developed by Halcyon Aerospace for the Barrish Alliance. The Marauder was a multi-role aircraft that could fill the role of interceptor, ground support and even light bomber. It was fitted with two 1900Hp Chimera engines, 2 eight-barrelled Octan miniguns and two 20mm cannons. The plane we see here is painted in typical Barrish Air Force camo and markings.

TIE Fighter? Gray is so unsightly these days, Bow Tie fighters are much more hip and stylish way to populate your fleet! Osiris Fleet Systems has the Bow Tie ready for combat, with forward twin laser cannons and heat sink nacelles on each wing.

The Arcturan Alliance has rolled out their newest medium carrier. The Hoyt-class carrier houses two squadrons of Angon fighters and is outfitted with four point-defense turrets and a single deck-mounted howitzer, providing it with a limited unescorted strike capability. It is pictured here escorted by a Culverin-class gunship and two flights of fighters.
Hey look, Lime green!
5th build in my Iron Builder round against Eann, using the Plant Flower Bell Shaped with Small Pin Hole in bright light blue
Found some time to build last night. Based on a Talros concept art, or at least I think. Not the most detailed build, but it is very strong and was fun. Also sorry for shit pictures, only had 10 min to take pictures and crop

You ever had that inner struggle of who you are and who you want to be. This is a photo of just that. Jackie has been training for a fitness competition and her internal fight comes to a head a lot. It seems to be a constant battle of juggling her workouts and dedication to the sport and her family. I think it's something we can all relate to on some level. Her strength is un believable and it's a pleasure to watch. I was able to witness her hit the stage 2 years ago...she was amazing! This year is a lot tougher fitness is an entirely new beast. This photo and her journey reminds me of the song from Gym Class Heroes "The Fighter".
BB-8 has been given part of a map that leads to Luke Skywalker and it is now up to him to deliver it to the Resistance! Play as BB-8 as you roll through the deserts of the junkyard planet Jakku and escape the clutches of the First Order. But watch out for patches of quicksand or you'll drown! You start at Tuanul village which is under attack by the First Order. Navigate through the Graveyard of Giants past a crashed Star Destroyer. Meet up with Rey at her AT-AT home, travel past a crashed X-Wing and some other wreckage, and enter Niima Outpost where you meet Finn and escape in the Millennium Falcon!

Taken on my Contax G1 rangefinder camera using the Zeiss 45mm lens. Ilford FP4+ film. The name of the town is Bobbio in North Italy.
This heavy star fighter is a multipurpose starship, primarily used for intense battle and longer deep space missions.
This Corellian ship is mainly inspired by @fordrockwell design, the Chaser.
I did enjoy building something not really “in-universe”, while at the same time, maintaining the falcon aesthetic!
The USMF's elite pilots (those given the rank of Paladin) are a tough breed whose exploits are well known across the galaxy. Though qualified on a wide array of different craft (including ones not used by the USMF) most Paladins operate solo or in small groups; often great distances from allied bases or capital ships and thus have found great use in one-man fighter craft with FTL capability.
Miniaturizing FTL jump drives is a complex and costly process, but the benefits of a faster-than-light starfighter are numerous. For years, the USMF Paladins utilized the AX-20 "Katana" in this role. While a sturdy and fast ship, the Katana's production foundry was completely destroyed in the beginning stages of the Dimension Wars, and as such, it's service numbers dwindled further from the already small amount (in comparison to non-FTL fighters in the fleet).
Starcom Solution's answered the call for a "faster-than-light jack of all trades" by introducing the "Tekkan" (a name of Japanese origin inspired by its spiritual predecessor "Katana"). Starcom Solutions, living up to it's name, conquered the complex issue of small FTL jump drives with a unique solution; the drive systems were built at the capital ship shipyards on Saturn and then shipped to Neptune where quantum technology was used to shrink the units down to a smaller size.
Impressed by the originality of Starcom Solutions' engineering prowess, the USMF quickly requested a Tekkan for immediate trial runs. The first Tekkan produced (which was painted red with white markings as tribute to the Katana) passed its tests with flying colors (no pun intended) and was assigned to Paladin Kira Janus.
The Tekkan features twin heavy repeating lasers (much like those found on Hyperius Industries' "Scorpion"-class heavy fighter) and twin "Mjölnir"-type lightning cannons, which fire thunderous bolts of energy across great distances. These weapons pack quite the punch and require no ammunition, but require a great amount of charge time. If safety protocols are bypassed, the capacitor banks can overcharge and result in a devastating chain reaction.
Having done the Original Trilogy TIE Fighters I wanted to do updated versions as well. One would think the new TIEs are just a simple recolor, but no, it is far more complicated. They are wider, engine layout is different and most importantly, there are - in fact - two different designs! I didn't realise that until I was looking very closely at stillshots from the movie and had some odd discrepancies... So: The one on the left, with red stripe is a Special Forces TIE Fighter and the one on the right is your standard single-seater mookmobile.

Finally acquired a couple of these Nexo Knights windscreen elements and decided to build a nice little Ice Planet fighter to showcase one of them. I'm calling it the "Winterspike" because most of the other names that seemed appropriate (Ice Dagger, Snowhawk etc) seem to already be taken.
Starfighter Telephone Game Round 7 Team Lunar Defense Moonsquad Ship No. 4! Finished my first contribution to STG, and my first build after BF. I finished it up in August, I feel like this is one of my best builds to date.

August 2015
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.
Check out MisterShramp's flickr
and instagram if you haven't already- he's got a bunch of really interesting ideas and instructions for his builds too!
Alias: The Mystery
Real name: unknown
Gender: male
alliance: hero/vigilante
Backstory: The Mystery always dreamed about being a hero. He loved reading comics about them. When he saw the Flickr Fighters, he felt inspired. The crime in his city was high, and nobody seemed to care about it. Someone needed to do something, so he went on the street. First he started out small, with beating up street thugs and simple robbers. He wanted to stay anonymous, so he called himself The Mystery. When trying to stop a bigger criminal, an accident happened. This accident gave him the ability to read others mind. Shortly after that he made some arch-nemesises. Later on he joined the flickr fighters, one of his biggest dreams coming true.
Personality: smart, quiet and a bit shy, when feeling comfortable more talkative then usual, serious when needed.
Powers and weaknesses: The Mystery has psychic powers, so he is able to read somebody's mind and keep them busy in there own head. But this costs him a lot of concentration which makes him an easy target when he uses it. He just got this powers so he doesn't know yet what his strenghts, weaknesses and limits are. Because of this he doesn't use them very often, and prefers using his staff and fighting skills. Later in time he might be able to use mind control. Also when in battle he sometimes lets his emotions take control.
Well this is my Flickr Fighter, hope you guys like it! Tell me if anything is wrong with him, like too OP or something else.
Enjoy!
