X-Wing VS TIE Fighter

The scene right before Luke destroys the Death Star is among the most memorable ones in Star Wars films which is why I decided to build it within Minecraft.It seemed like a great thing to do shortly after the construction of Darth Vader´s mask.

I have started of by building a TIE Fighter.  After finding a few photos I looked at a few  scales of the machine. I decided to make it  much bigger than what I originally planed  which is how it ends up with most of my  projects. It wasn´t to difficult to build it as I  only had to make a sphere and two angled  hexagons with a connection between them.  The dimensions and proportions came from  the pictures. Dart Vader´s TIE Fighter was  the next thing on the list which was quite  similar to the previous ones. The last and the  most difficult thing to build was the X-Wing. I  had to  do a lot of experimenting, altering and  adjusting to make it look just the way I  wanted. It was also a very interesting thing for me to build.

I am quite satisfied with the outcome of the project and the fact that it was a good preparation for bigger things. Unfortunately rapidshare has screwed me over with this project as I uploaded it to the service and it was deleted in a few months or so. This caused me to lose this map that I very much liked. Hopefully I can still somehow find it but I don´t have much hope.
