The Lonestar

Post by **subyrally** » Tue Mar 29, 2011 10:55 pm

when you need a fighter, but your enemy is really far away, hell, maybe even on another planet, what are you going to do? you call the lonestar, of course!!

with its optional booster package, the range is tripled in atmo, 10 times the range once in space. its the go anywhere, do anything all around capable fighter.

and the cradle to hold the jet up from the ground to open the cockpit.

derp

The hanger/dock bit is clever, as is the drop-down cockpit. Very sleek, but it might need a bit more dakka. On the whole I give it

Yeah it may need moar dakka, but this is an absolute win. I like it better than the gunship-plane thing you built earlier. 11/10

This is really cool I think that you could use missiles to make it more jet like.

I love how you did the cockpit opening. Great job!

The movable cockpit is nothing short of amazing, and I like the basic design too. Awesome work.

now hold on, smilies are not to be used constantly, only occasionally when they CAN NOT in any way shape or form not be used. on topic: i love it, i never thought to do anything like that.

Looks really cool and sleak, can't wait to see it armed!

Post by **subyrally** » Wed Mar 30, 2011 7:11 pm

it already has cannons and a machine gun mounted in the pics, but missiles are coming soon-ish.

like i say, a plane never has enough missiles. if you think you have enough, smack yourself and start building more. if you run out of room, make more room, or put it on another plane.

i might have to bricklink or actually order the parts from lego directly. i can't find all of my missile bits

Post by **razgriz 25th inf.** » Wed Mar 30, 2011 7:45 pm

thats not good. MOAR MISSILES! even if bricklink is needed.
