You said you wanted HW lego ships?

[FluxX]

Well.. no I don't have any yet. But some may come...

For now, you can build your own!!!!

http://www.ldraw.org/

Its a "generic" brick modeler (it means lego, but thats copywrighted ).

[Kushan_Pilot]

Neat.

I've been thinking of ripping out my kits and mixing the parts together anyway. Had them so long they don't have the parts to build what they were for anyway :hmm: .

[DFrost]

Bah... I pwn all of you with my four foot high mothership (real life)

Um, please tell me you work for lego.

The other options are too dpressing... IE, you ordered 1 million bricks...

[DFrost]

lol, no, no I don't work for Lego. If I had ordered 1 million bricks, they would all be a nice grey color, but as you can see, mine is.... colorful. Also, if I worked for Lego, the Banana would look a lot better.

[Pyromonger]

Have you ever brought a girl home and had to explain that?

Did you still get laid afterwards?

[DFrost]

Fortunately, its tucked away in a corner where no one looks.

am i the only one not seeing a valid picture link in mozilla?

IE can view them fine...

[nickersonm]

Using POV-Ray and an LDraw (MLCad in my case), you can produce some very nice renderings:

(pictures from a technical writing report I did)

Just think of the renderings you can do once you assemble a complete HW fleet in LDraw!

Edit: changed pictures to links

[hwmodder]

MLCad is a lot better than LDraw in my opinion. Heres a link to a page that links it. I didn't link directly b/c i think this is the sweetest lego model of all time: http://onyx.malagraphixia.com/Berett...eretta_9mm.htm

Download the files and add a .jpg extension to the filenames

[EnforcerSG]

Yo Mamaship's so big...

[ilia1986]

lol. from where did you get all those Lego pieces? It musta been a 700$ worth...

[ilia1986]

Wow this software is great! Tnx!!!

[DFrost]

ilia: I bought these big boxes from all over the place. I would finish a portion (usually a small portion) of the mothership, wait a week or two, buy a box of legos, wait again, etc., etc. I have no idea how much I spent, but it was quite a lot.

[ilia1986]

lol... nice work tough...

[lastmay]

well, I have found some hw lego ship 2, enjoy

Bumping a five year old thread: Not good.


Bumping a five year old thread by posting some awesome content related to the thread: Fantastic!

[Mantaray]

agree. despite the rather nice models, the thread IS from 5 years 2 days ago... (not taking into acount leapyears) wich is a hefty necro. were talking skeletal construct here, not a fleshy zombie

[reki]

It doesn't matter how old the bumped thread is, so long as the added information is relevant.

[BmB]

The Bishop transport is the single most awesome thing to ever be set in legos.

[efritsch]

The only way that could be any cooler if he posted instructions. That was Epic!

[Elukka]

How about this one?

[JAL-18]

That Vaygr bomber blows my mind every time I see it.

The thread lastmay linked to is also pretty fucking incredible.

[Aesaar]

I wish I had my legos here.

[Hiroshi_Tea]

omg a scout!

[Blue Sun]

Ahh... legos. How many hours did I spend building random spaceships--nothing directly based on Homeworld, but every single one directly inspired by it. Tiny Micro-ship Frigates, huge armed transport ships, Fighters to scale with the lego figurines. Alas, now all my legos are two states south in a dusty box. I wonder how much it would cost to have them fedexed here?

This isn't directly homeworldy, but anyone who enjoys lego spaceships should sure appreciate this guy:

[Wintermute]

Guys... Oh man... If they had put up directions, I would go out and buy so many legos right now.

I... I just had a homeworldgasm. Bookmarked links for later reference.


Edit: Interesting, it looks like one of them was working - at one point in time - on making something that vaguely represented Norsehound's Taiidan Somtaaw Mothership concept... Or at least the modules for it.

I myself am a Lego builder (lol) and also a Homeworld fan, and I can tell you that the online Lego Space community is very much intertwined with HW. A lot of us draw from HW for inspiration for our creations

In nnenn's photostream, if you look up ''Vaygr'' or ''Hiigaran'' in the search bar you will get a Vaygr fighter and a Hiigaran fighter.

Also, on the aforementioned brickshelf website, you can search for "Homeworld", "Vaygr", "Hiigaran", and "Taiidan", and you will get a number of cool creations.
