Aliens UD-4L Cheyenne Utility Dropship by Havoc

The concept of a dropship has always fired my imagination — especially after seeing Aliens way back when. Havoc seems to share my fascination, as demonstrated by this fantastic rendition of the UD-4L Cheyenne Utility Dropship:

Naturally, the missile pods folder into the dropship’s fuselage:

While we’re at it, here’s Havoc’s Aliens APC. Though it’s not to the same scale as the dropship, it’s still awesome:

The Rusty Saber swoops into NoVVember

Tyler Clites (Legohaulic) joins the Vic Viper “NoVVember” fun with his Rusty Saber:

The cockpit has an arthropod-like look to it, and it’s definitely my favorite part.

Itty-bitty pirates...in space!

Kevin Fedde‘s first microscale spaceships have a great color scheme. Well, anything green catches my eye, but they’re still awesome, from their angled bows to the blue engine exhaust:

More than one way to skin an APC

Gears of War APC

One sure way of attracting my attention to your LEGO model is making it look bigger than it is. HAZEL-Fantasy (HAZEL-頑張ります!) has created a version of the Gears of War APC that’s well-crafted, detailed, beautifully curved and small. I’m quite blown away. It’s also nice to see a model of an APC that isn’t the (very cool) one from Aliens.

Ganesha hovership rips through from the Matrix

Andrew Lee‘s astounding Ganesha hovership from the Matrix is an instant crowd-pleaser. Having improved much from the old version several years ago, the new hovership combines new parts and building techniques in the best Matrix creation I have seen.

The Rusty Ferret cruises the galaxies

Creator of incredible works including the Invisible Hand and Apocalypsis, Mark Kelso unveils his latest masterpiece in LEGO – a variation of a concept ship from the Star Wars Extended Universe called the Rusty Ferret. This stunning creation measures 140 studs long (over 3.5ft) and is just a beauty to behold. Check out some of the work in progress shots here.

Make no mistake, when combined with Mark’s excellent photo-editing skills, you’d have to look twice to see that it’s actually LEGO.

And now, Mark will auction off this priceless creation starting at one hundred billion dollars. I’d buy it if I had the money.

We’ve blogged Rob Dasnewten here many times. One of my favourite non-LEGO blogs, the accurately named Concept Ships, has gone one step further and published an excellent roundup of his work. Nice work, Rob.

The ship pictured above is Rob’s latest: the GP-21 Shrike.

Define swooshability

Jarek‘s pointy Zaria Interceptor is a typical spacefigher with a high swoosh factor. Also, I want to highlight the fact that Jarek finally signed up on Flickr after recommendations from several fellow builders. You can add him as a contact here.

Peter Reid‘s Exo Suit is the latest smash hit in his Neo Classic-Space genre. It doesn’t take any pointers for one to see how ingeniously awesome this is. When it comes down to details on your next mechanical biped, Peter is the man to dish out the greebs.
