![]() ![]() There is a notable shortage of t70 builds. Fitting landing gear however was :DĪll in all I consider this to be far from perfect but still a worthy attempt. ![]() Wings were fun, but ultimately not that huge challenge. New core at least works much more smoothly and is notably less crazy when assembling. Plus, while the old core worked, I can't say I was a fan of it. Unfortunately, the modl for window panels I used has changed and no longer can be used. and a bigger one: it is now a 4x4x4 cube instead of 2x2x2 one. The wing mechanism core is a completely new construction compared to the one I used before. To make it match the rest of the starfighter fleet I had to use glass cockpit, and after several attempts I ended up using the standard one, with visual "extension" to at least partially extend it to match intended look. It is a very obvious compromise between accuracy and just looking good in bricks. I am not even trying to argue that this what I built is "accurate". Septagonal fuselage? Yup, still there, just. You thought that there's no suitable cockpit canopy for the old T65? Haha, joke is on you, have fun finding 12x3 canopy for T70. You have to do the same wing folding mechanism but in a tighter hull, plus both upper and bottom wings have to meet and form a flush surface. You take all the difficult traits of plain old T-65 rebel X-Wing: wing folding mechanism, cockpit with no suitable canopy, septagonal fuselage crossection - and take each of them up to eleven. Building a T70 feels like finding a secret boss of SW LEGO builds. ![]()
