JMC Starbug from Red Dwarf, WIP progress report 6
About this creation
Well I have been building a bit so here is Starbug once again still in WIP stage.
Well nearly finished have ran out of green bricks again. The red sections will be replaced with green and details. The legs have toes and support most of the weight, but the rear legs started to seperate when left for 6 hours so 1 clear support has been added to the rear sphere. The overall length is 85 studs with a curent height of 40 bricks this will increase when the fins are added, the width is 86 studs.

I just watched the 3 episodes of Back To Earth for the first time. I don't understand what ties them to the end of "Only the Good ..."?
Back to Earth is set 9 years after Only the Good. Red Dwarf is full of cliffhangers and story's that have no continuity, you just have to believe that somehow rimmer saved the ship or maybe ace rimmer saved the ship. Basicly you just have to live with it and maybe it will get explained in the new series they are making.

Do you have red shaded contact lenses you can wear, to go with mr flibble.
No just a gingham dress and army boots. |

I see. Will you have a micro version of Starbug as a prop for Red Dwarf? I myself only remember the pencil version (not the trash can). Netflix has corrupted me and my memory from 20 years ago is wanting.
Yes I will build another Starbug but it would still fit a minifig, and be to scale but to the original series 3 scale. Im a big fan and have every single media release on multiple formats. including other things like mr flibble puppets. |

Red Dwarf is one of your upcoming projects! Oh my God. You can't mean to make that on a proportional scale to your Starbug?
No it wont be on scale with this starbug but it will be bigger than this starbug and have minifig scale rooms. I also want to do both versions of blue midget on scale with this starbug. |

Fair enough. But was parrots bar not on Red Dwarf, as opposed to Starbug? Looks like I need to get on Netflix and revisit that episode.
Yes parrots bar was on Red Dwarf, but that is one of my upcoming projects. 'Only 2 members of cast where on starbug when Camille was aboard, Rimmer and Kryten. |

Fantastic! Dare I enquire about a minifig Lister bending forward to smooch a slimy green pyramid shaped blob?
There will eventually be custom minifigs, I guess I could build a blob but it would be better with kryten and in parrots bar. |

OK on the red bulb, well then how about: 1) a panel on the wall with some head sticker for Holly; 2) a beer and bowl of Vindaloo in the kitchen for Lister; 3) a rack of colorful suits in the cargo bay for Cat.
The rack of suits for cat is built but there has been no photo of it yet. Beer cans have also been designed but I have not printed the stickers yet for them or Holly. |

That's all well and good but... where's the red alert bulb? And yes, I realize it means changing the bulb and I'm good with that. Look good man! Can't wait to see the finished product! ~ Chris.
There is a red alert bulb in there! I hope you know I'm rating your RD fan status on how many quotes you have left. I also feel quiet disappointed that you missed commenting on the last part (5) of this construction journal. |

I feeling a little bit envious...
Just had a look at some of your stuff, and your LDD stuff is not half bad. You should not feel envious but strive to create something better.
Its not just the amount of bricks it's the person. |
