Munificent-class star frigate
While waiting for a few parts to arrive for my primary entry to the Assemble the Fleet contest, this ship evolved from a new wing technique with which I’ve been experimenting and some errant technic panels that were yet to find a home.
Once I found a fun way to build some tiny vulture droids, I thought it was worth posting it as an entry to the contest.
I have a stud.io file with literally dozens of variations of the vulture droid design. I originally intended to use a minifig shield to represent the droids’ body but the element is a lot thinner than the road sign thus can’t connect to the fingers of the ski ‘wings’.
The trifighter was an interesting little build. Creating a triangular base for the fighter was a challenge. I try to shy away from using too many illegal techniques in my builds, but a way to create the desired shape at such a small size using more conventional techniques eluded me. I couldn’t believe my luck to find that the gap between the three clips at the centre of the model would accept that horn element!
