Here it is ! The project I have been keeping semi-secret for almost a year now. The Trailblazer , Kay Vess's ship from Star Wars Outlaws I love that ship and I can't wait to play the game in just two weeks. There is still a LOT of work to do, in fact this photo is not even the latest version. List of current features :  - Turret can rotate and can be removed  - Escape pod can be removed  - Smaller Reactors can rotate around the bigger ones like in the game  - Part of the roof can be removed  - other parts of the roof can be opened  - detailed exterior  - detailed minifigscale interior, all the rooms and main furniture are here The next steps :  - Finish the design of the bigger reactors  - Finish the Canopy of the cockpit (the biggest challenge of the whole ship)  - Exposing it at "Brick Summit" in Montreal on September 14th 2024  - Design the instructions and make them available. F-A-Q : Is this minifigscale ? YES How many pieces ?...

The Mandalorian new ship N-1 Naboo Starfighter

 When I saw what ship was going to replace the Razorcrest, I thought: "It is a small one and it is based on an existing set, there are going be millions of MoCs for it, why bother work on one." But some friends, colleagues and followers insisted that I try. And I have to admit it is a good looking and interesting ship. As I was the first to work on a minifigscale Razorcrest, I felt I had to try. So I started working on it Friday ! - Is it based on an existing official sets ? No - Is it minifigscale ? Yes, but in the higher tier. - Is there room for Grogu in it ? Yes - Is it Modular ? Yes, it makes it easier to work on for me and for the builders. - Is it UCS ? I don't think a Moc this size deserves the label. - Will there be instructions ? Most probably - Is it going to require rare/expensive pieces ? I don't know yet, I am building it in Real Life first instead of starting with stud.io, so I go with what I have in stock. Next steps:  - Refine the build  - Design ...

Update on my Lego MoC of the CX Dagger from Bad Batch

My wife knows me well, when we watch anything Star Wars, she can tell from my face when my brain goes into "I need to build this out of Lego". After giving up on a full minifigscale Havoc Marauder, I wasn’t sure I’d find a ship I love from the Bad Batch. I worked on Asaj Ventress’s ship for a bit in stud.io, but I had limited footage and zero shot of its interior, so I’ll wait for more content. However, for the CX Dagger , it was love at first sight and I have plenty of footage, from outside and inside and even a concept art page. So I dived into it. And of course, I wanted it to be as detailed as possible and as minifig-scale as possible. All while keeping it buildable with pieces that are easy to find (I learned from my success with the Razorcrest) I got some good reviews on Instagram for the V1 And now just finished V1.1 just in time to show it next Weekend at an exhibition near Montreal . Note : The instructions are not ready yet. So far designing the instructions ...
