CIS Trident

Wow that looks extremely accurate!

Is this awrsome Trident for the ARC troopers WIP? Or is it just an awrsome MOC?

REALLY nice job Rook! The detail is amazing! It needs more of a rust look though, IMO.

I'm not what you're asking.

And if you'd use a spell checker you'd notice there is no "R" in awesome.

Agreed. Maybe slip in a few brown and dark red pieces. I was worried about look to "Republic".

This looks really accurate, and as The_Custom_One said, it needs some sort of a rust effect to finish.

This is really close to one of those things from the Clone Wars episodes. I just wish I had enough red pieces to make something like that.

I think he was simply adding an "R" in awesome because Rook is so awesome, he deserves his own word.

This looks really good. I give claps.

I really like it. It's not shown a lot in SW but in CW it is an iconic vehicle. So I applaud you for building it. The one problem I have with it though, is the colour. It's bright red here but normally it is at least dark red or brown. But still, amazing design! Is it sturdy?

I think dark orange would do it a little better justice, but petty color diferences don't take away from the accurate feel created by the greebling and poseability! When is WazzupRook going to hit production? I'm dying to get my hands on that trident and that amazing boarding craft.

No idea how or what Wuzzupbob has been doing with them. But I have noticed that TLG made the Freeco Bike after I sent him my instructions. Maybe WB is just a TLG designer that has been using my designs when has a dry spell. In any case I don't care. I design models for him and he sends me custom prototype minifigures. What he does with it doesn't matter to me.

Awesome CIS Trident Rook. The whole design makes it really life-like. Do you have the instructions for this?

Yes and no. I'm waiting on a response from WB if he wants to buy the rights to this design. So if he doesn't want this design you can buy the instructions.

Ok. Thank you very much Rook. I need this kind of design for the Star Wars series that I am working on.

Yeah the hard part of this design was combining the 6 sided top with the 8 sided bottom and still make it sturdy enough to stay together and to be able to stand on its own.

Sounds like a pretty sweet gig!

I would love to buy the instructions for this and the boarding craft if WB has no use for them.
