There are scenes from the show where it does look more grey that blue anyways.Īs always, hope you enjoy! I'll be back soon with my minifig scale ATT and DDT.Baktoid Armor Workshop’s Hyena-class droid bomber is a wartime evolution of the Trade Federation’s Vulture-class droid fighter.
Both ships were designed to use The Clone Wars colour schemes, although it could be debated that they Hyena should be sand blue rather than DBG, but given that practically none of the pieces come in that colour, there wasn't much choice. So since they are fairly similar I'm including the pictures of it here as well. However after figuring out the head for the Hyena bomber it wasn't too hard to down-scale to get a suitable head for it too. Prior to working on the Hyena bomber, I had built a minifig scale Vulture droid, but was unhappy with the stock LEGO style head.
I've also included a couple photos with some of my other MOCs for size comparison. I then utilized variations of the technique to build the other head-like shapes on the ship, including the targeting head below. While it may not be perfect, for the most part has the general shaping of the actual Hyena bomber. It took a week or so of playing with parts, but I was finally able to come up with a brick-built head design I was happy with. While the stickers used to make up the "face" look nice, the overall head shape is left extremely flat. The other thing that always made the model look wrong was using the head build method established by LEGO. I was able to get the wing mounts to extend out of the main body to allow upper leg movement though. So unfortunately there is a small bit of "parts-forming" required between modes, but I made it as little as possible. There was no way that I could get the legs to physically retract the way they do on the actual ship, even more so at this scale. This was a little harder than I had anticipated, and I had to make one sacrifice right off the bat. My goal was to get mine as close as I could and keep it in line with my other minifig scale builds. The overall shaping of the ship was kind of off and the walking mode looked nothing like the source material. The official LEGO Hyena bomber was alright, but left a lot to be desired. This one was pretty tricky, but I think it came together rather well in the end. And thought I'd bring you something that I haven't really seen around anywhere. I've been busy working away at expanding my minifig scale MOC collection (Still only digitally atm). Hey everyone, hope everyone has been doing well. LEGO Digital Designer and other digital tools
