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.

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.

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.  |
