Same, that was another design compromise. I tried very much to not use the anti studs but it just wasn’t possible with the outlining. I even ordered 1x3 inverted tiles, but it took away too much stability- I really wish we had more inverted tile selections

I built your X-wing in Red 5 colors with some slight external modifications. I'm in love with your version it's perfect and the leftover pieces went to improving my Arc-170 wing mechanism.

@BAUFmanBricks

I think that’s more a product of the wings being too thick, a stud wide, whereas they should be thinner but it’s not possible with bricks. If it were possible to be thinner it would look farther apart. I was actually shocked when I measured all the dimensions and they all came out at 1/43 scale.

Dang those wings look great. I was going to use your cockpit design and make my own wings for an intercepter but I may end up buying those instructions 👀. Great stuff as always man!

@@BAUFmanBricks ok if I’d have to pick a backup second design to go with I would look toward the AT-TE I know that Brick Vault have tackled this but it doesn’t have the “all terrain function” meaning the back doesn’t bend where it should. I think a good place to start if you wanted to look into this is by observing the “I built a suspended train in lego” video which could give enough hints as to how to tackle the bending and locking function when you need the back to be sturdy. Also maybe another way is to have lego gears perform the bend function so you would have to turn a crank to bend the At-Te

Hey Baufmann what do you think about the new Tiefighter and Xwing in the new Set 75393? I was very surprised when i saw that they actually upgraded the models and they now look so much better and similar to yours. They’re still not as good, weird landing gear on the X and a weird top on the Tie but overall I think they really just look quite good. Also on the Tie interceptor, even tho it’s not in scale, the newest Lego one (Playscale) from „Tie interceptor vs Mandalorian Fang Fighter“ Set Looks sooo good. I feel like it looks even better and more UCS‘sy than the actual UCS set.

Ya I was pleasantly surprised to see Lego make the cockpit smaller on the new TIE. I think the pic angles may be hiding some visually bad areas but I am very interested to see how it’s constructed, especially the wing connections. I know they will make it strong but that’s hard when the wings are removable. I probably won’t buy it but I will definitely be looking at the instructions. I really thought I was going to buy the Fang and Interceptor set, that Interceptor is very proportional for its scale and looks good. It’s once I started crunching numbers I realized the Tie Bomber was the set for me. But ya, that Interceptor is solid, it’s a shame it’s behind an expensive combo set with an unpopular Fang build
