Zoom in

A starship designed to infiltrate Republic garrisons and bypass fleets, flown by various bounty hunters. (Semi-WIP)

About this creation

My first MOC, ladies and gentlemen! The name was an afterthought; I was listening to Dethklok while building.

The ship is built from an ARC-170 set and a Ferrarri F1 set, and a few spares. Took about 2 days of work and about a month of planning.

The cockpit is similar to the F1 set; severely cramped and fragile in areas. Fluffwise it's an infiltration ship, hence the reds and no republic insignias.

The side engines were a last-minute thing, really. Will build a casing for that someday.

One massive thruster from the back. So that I can say that this thing has a hyperdrive.

For me that's tactical genius; I've never built anything like that save for when there are instructions.

So that's it, really. Semi-WIP since I've still to build the casing for the side engines and some weapons. Speaking of which, suggest some.

Looks good and since you've taken some cues from the AR-170 or whatever so it is believably Star Warsesque. BTW check out my creations please!

Quoting Mood Swim Nice! I like the construction of this, though you can see the ARC 170 coming through. As far as weapons: Missiles, rocket launchers, gattling guns...

Well if it does sow then my work's done. The fluff behind this was that parts were grafted from other ships, mostly scraps from the Republic Navy. I was thinking about a mounted turret behind the cockpit where the dark greens are, or lasers mounted under the wing.
