rx79gez8gundam Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 I have always had a fondness for the AT-AT, and even after three attempts by LEGO to release oneI've still been left unsatisfied. Hence, my AT-AT MOC. It features a fully detailed interior with a cockpit holding 2 drivers, a commander with periscope, and room for 2 more figures, seating for 18 troops in a double decker main body, detailed drive section, storage for 2 speeder bikes in the lower vehicle bay, opening side access hatches and a lower hatch fro recreating Luke's lightsaber and grenade attack on a walker from ESB. The cheek guns rotate, and the legs are fully poseablewith articulated upper and lower hip joints, knees, ankles with 2 dimensions of range of motion, and toe flaps. The exterior,interior, and underside are highly detailed, having used photos of the movie models and the book Star Wars Complete Cross Sections to design and build the MOC. Any feedback is appreciated! http://mocpages.com/moc.php/379645 Quote
kr-lik Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 (edited) do you have the LDD file for this ? :o I like how it looks! did you brick-build this as well or just a render ? Edited March 26, 2014 by kr-lik Quote
rx79gez8gundam Posted March 26, 2014 Author Posted March 26, 2014 do you have the LDD file for this ? :o I like how it looks! did you brick-build this as well or just a render ? I haven't uploaded any of my LDD files, holding on to them for now. It sadly only exists in LDD form for now, as do all of my MOCs. Trying to gather the pieces to build at least one of my aircraft currently. Quote
TWP Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 I like the design! Good recreation of the details. The interior is a welcome addition too. How big is it, e.g. in comparioson with the official ones? However, I think it is not very sturdy. There seem to be a few weak connections. You may work on that, else it will fall apart in real life. Quote
neverminded Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Very well done! A LDD file would come in handy, but it's your hard work, so you might even keep it Quote
Saint Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 I'm a bit curious... Does the neck hold all that weight ?? I cannot make that out . That saying, this is a great model I for one, would like to build out of LDD !! grtz Saint Quote
Chills Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Very cool MOC! I really like all of the detail, especially the armor and the interior spaces. I have the same concerns as the others about stability, but I would like to see this MOC come to life. Any plans to actually create it? How many pieces is it? Quote
rx79gez8gundam Posted March 26, 2014 Author Posted March 26, 2014 It is 3399 pieces. The neck is reinforced with a technic axle inside for added strength, and all the joints use the same reinforcement. I based the structure off an older physical version I had built, the main difference being the level of detail I was able to add with the LDD version that my physical LEGO collection lacked the pieces to do so with. I also always take care to interlock with overlapping varied lengths as often as possible in a build for maximized structural strength. Quote
Lobot Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Impressive, most impressive! :wub: Excellent design, and one of the best large-scale versions that I've seen: Quote
Only Sinner Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 I agree with the above. This is easily one of the best AT-ATs I have seen. So much detail! Quote
Robert_88 Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 Great design! I hope you will build this model one day ;) 3399 pieces? The perfect size for a UCS version! Quote
rollermonkey Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 This NEEDS to be brick-built. Even if that means selling the parts list to someone. Quote
BigTonka Posted March 31, 2014 Posted March 31, 2014 Godo job; I really like your model. TLG should contact you to take your model as the base of their next UCS!!! Quote
rx79gez8gundam Posted March 31, 2014 Author Posted March 31, 2014 Godo job; I really like your model. TLG should contact you to take your model as the base of their next UCS!!! So the general consent I seem to be getting is "put this on CUUSOO", am I correct? :D Quote
Lobot Posted March 31, 2014 Posted March 31, 2014 I think that this would do well on CUUSOO, there's going to be a lot of OT fans out there who would love to buy it (me included!). It also strikes a very good balance between being impressively detailed, but still having a sensible part count (and subsequent potential RRP). Good luck if you decide to submit it, I'm sure that a lot of EB members would support it Quote
Saint Posted March 31, 2014 Posted March 31, 2014 I , for one , would support it !! And I vulonteer to build it !! ( and they have a UCS Sandcrawler, so why not this AT-AT ?? ) grtz Saint Quote
rollermonkey Posted April 1, 2014 Posted April 1, 2014 There's one on there with 321 supporters in a year, and although yours looks a lot better, they actually brick-built theirs... Quote
mortesv Posted April 1, 2014 Posted April 1, 2014 This is a very nice looking model The level of detail, size and brick count gives us a hint of what an official UCS could look like. However, I would suggest that you gave the main housing a technic skeleton that should link directly into the neck. As it looks right now, I think the weight of the head and neck combined (together with the distance of their centre of gravity in relation to where they are attached) will be too much for what looks like a brick built wall to handle. Also, just moving the model around would benefit from the added structural integrity of a technic skeleton. Anyway, It would be nice to see this in real bricks Quote
