semi OT: looking for a new LEGO project
 

I'm a member of a Lego Builders club and we've got a demo coming up. I was thinking that I would build an SEIV ship out of Lego. But I'm having difficulty thinking of a ship to build.

Can anyone think of something that might lend itself to a pretty impressive Lego construction.

Here's a sample of my 'work' from about 10 years ago.

The Death Star. 5 feet of pure coolness.

Ooooh, wait. SE4 ship... EEE!

I think shrapnel disabled bitmaps for image tags because of their size. PNG works just fine, though.

Nice star destroyer.

I have a couple suggestions for SE IV ships:

Narn - Their ships are also somewhat wedge-shaped, so some of the star destroyer building experience may carry over. The Narn are also known outside the SE IV community.

Tessellate - The polygonal Tessellate ships should be perfect for LEGOs.

Got a specific ship in mind?

You should do a terran battlecruiser!

Narn dreadnought, Tessellate battleship. It occurred to me, however, that a LEGO modeller would need more to go on than just the ship portraits in the TDM Modpack. I don't know where to find larger images of these ships. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif
