1:1000 Star Wars *10.01.17 Continuing the Nebulon-B, side panels done*

[OSHIROmodels]

Knocked this up the other day after watching one of the Rogue One trailers, an Imperial cargo ship 

It's a chemiwood body clad in 0.5mm rowmark with a few bits of gubbins here and there. It's about 105mm long not including the antenna at the front and is armed with two dual laser cannons.



I'm waiting for Rogue One to come out before I carry on with the Nebulon B as there are some in the trailers and I want to see how different they are to the medical frigate (the screen shots I've seen aren't that clear).

Now, why haven't I seen thread this before? I need to pay better attention, it seems... 

[Mason]

Taken from a Rogue One trailer, eh.
I cant help thinking of an AT-AT 'body' when looking at it.
 

Nice build, mate.
Very effective.
 

[Andym]

I feel as though it should have been painted a deep scarlet colour with the letters R-E-D-D-W-A-R-F arranged in some sort of order along the side!

Simply good reliable Imperial design...  Great flying shoe box!!

Nah, just inspired by

Argh, I should've cast it 

Maybe next time

Yeah, that was my thought too!

[tomrommel1]

nice little thing!

[pocoloco]

Beautiful vessel that, in it's blocky Imperial way

You plan to double-purpose it (the lower left pic) as a gun turret for the bigger scale SW games?

[huesped]

nice Barge, mate! i love the design!!

[OSHIROmodels]

Belated thanks chaps 

Carrying on with the Nebulon-B build after finding some rather useful bits in the bits box. I think I'm going to do the side pieces at work on the laser as I'm lazy and the cuts will be cleaner. I'll also machine or print the front curved section (probably print) and then it's on to the final panelling and details 




As mentioned before, it's not a film accurate build, just an old Imperial ship in a back water system somewhere 

I'm also looking into standardising my flight basing and when I've got a suitable method I'll post something up in the Workbench. It'll be something that is modular for different ships/things, heights and sizes.

Not a bad idea but I think the scaling is a bit out (I'm a bit anally retentive like that  ).

Love the Neb. Doesn't matter if it's screen accurate, it should look awesome when complete.

 

[Mason]

That does look like a really useful pile of scrap.
Should look the business when you have tarted them up.
 

[pocoloco]

She'll look fine when you get all the little bits in place

Cheers fellas
