Zoom in

This is the Larus-Class Dropship. It is the close relative of the Imperative-Class dropship. After deploying it's troops this craft can attack, using it's forward mounted rotary cannon and quad missile launcher. However, it lacks the armor of it's counterpart and risks more troop loss. It features a compressed engine unit for the sake of space, that is why the body is adorned with cooling vents.

About this creation

This is my next installment of my dropship creations. The wings are inspired by seagulls, hence the name "Larus," which is the genus of Gulls. It is almost studless, except for a few puposely placed studs.

This is my improved engine! People seemed to like my lightsaber effect, so I concealed it more to make it more realistic.

Interior of cockpit.

Troop bay, complete with net for grasping.

These are the gull wings that fold forward to ease the ship to a stop, when it comes out of a high speed boost. This also reflects its avain appearance.

This is my rag-tag group of custom troops and their weapons. And that is not Ahsoka! It is a radical, female, trooper in war paint!

This is my improved engine. I really like the shape of it. I think it came out nice.

Troops being deployed on a foreign planet.

Thanks for looking!

Sorry, I didn't realize that this already had a sci-fi universe thingy. Is the Thornbill in the same category?

Amazing! I love the two front machine gun-like weapons in the front of the dropship. and although it was mad to be light to be able to hold alot of men, you somehow found a way to make it look awsomely tough, (<sorry for the grammar ;))

Id suggest you add doors to it, and instead of a rag-tag group of people, give them uniforms. Other than that, this moc is very creative and 'playable'.

Quoting Jonathan Thomas No Handrails? After a quick descent in the air I can see the Men falling out of the troop compartment screaming. Anyway besides that minor flaw I still really like this! Great Work!

Oh, I'm sorry if I didn't make it more clear. See, the men hold on to the cargo net over head, similer to that of the LAAT/i Gunship.

Mate this is one of the best Mini-fig troop dropships I have seen. Smooth as, a wicked shape, the cocpit is realistic as, and the seat is great b.t.w. and your mini-figs are really well thought out and fun as. The orange headed chick is awesome, what mini-fig is that? ---- This is a fantastic build mate.
