Are you able to model each Lego part and then 3D print the part out? ---

Technically you _could_. Though the quality of the parts will be a **problem** for sure ! One of the great strength of Lego (_and even chinese rip-offs nowadays_) is the **quality and precision** of the pieces. A small _0.05 cm error_ and everything starts to **stress** and eventually either **breaks** or you **can’t complete** the build. **Two options :** - if 3d printing really is your thing, I’d just 3d print (_resin preferably_) the model directly (_I used it for scaling btw_) [Eve Online - Stratios Cruiser (SOE) by fattox4189 - Thingiverse](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:192609/files) - or buy the pieces on **bricklink** (_my rebrickable moc will give you part lists, don’t trust rebrickable’s part list_) ---

Yeah, I know. I own a DaVinci 3D printer from XYZ Printing. Prints pretty good. If you expert parts you have to buy the best printer out there. ---

Well, feel free to try it out then 😛 I do not own any 3d files for all the various Lego parts sooo that’s going to be a tedious work for you ahah ! If you do try it out, I’m curious to know your findings 😃 ---

Ho do you make your Lego models. basic 3D modelling? Or do you create each piece individually and then put the pieces together? Ideas-7 would be a great modelling program, if it wasn’t so expensive. I used Ideas-7 when I as a drafter in the engineering department at Gradall many years ago. ---

**That would be tedious as all hell tbh 😛** Fortunately for me, **two tools already exist** to design Lego MOCs ! **LDD** from Lego themselves, which isn’t great tbh. And **[Stud.io](http://Stud.io)**, which is initially from fans (_Lego bought the site that maintains the tool since then_), it is way better from my own experience ! **It does many great things for me** (_and other MOCers ahah_) : - Constantly updated with new molds and re-colors - Snapping of Lego pieces - Renderings - Animations - Instructions - Stability checking of MOCs - and many, _ **MANY** _ other useful things ! On a side note, I had a sleepless night, so I tried my hands on my first Frigate ! **Hound renderings Soon(_TM_) ~~** ---

**Hound - _Covert Ops Frigate_** ![Hound_1](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/6/3/a/63af83d0657f5ddd714afe7126fafb1cc7a179fc.jpeg) "Specifically engineered to fire torpedoes, stealth bombers represent the next generation in covert ops craft. The bombers are designed for sneak attacks on large vessels with powerful missile guidance technology enabling the torpedoes to strike faster and from a longer distance. Developer: Boundless Creation Boundless Creation ships are based on the Brutor tribe’s philosophy of warfare: simply fit as much firepower onto your ship as humanly possible. On the other hand, defense systems and “cheap tricks” like electronic warfare have never been a high priority." (_Source : In Game Description_) The Hound is one of the 4 infamous cloaky bombers. Many a Rorqual, Carrier and other small spaceship died to its hands. It brings hard hitting torpedoes from a more than sufficient range while being very agile. Tank on the other hand is not its strong point. It is also one of the best bomb launcher thanks to its racial kinetic damage ! **## Stats :** | Scale : | 1/1500 | | --- | --- | | In Game Size : | 261 m | | Real Life Size : | 19,4 x 3,7 x 5,1 cm | | | 24,3 x 4,6 x 6,4 studs | | Number of Bricks : | 114 | | Average cost : | ~20 € | **## Important Info :** While it uses very little (_and mostly cheap_) parts, I advise you to try to **source all of them from one or two vendors at most** to limit shipping costs. Since the in game model is so large (_basically destroyer sized_), I used the **1/1500 scale** instead of the 1/500 for other frigates. **All my renders are available on [Imgur](https://imgur.com/user/ZejQuanta/posts) in 4K ! 🙂** **Follow my [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/zejquanta/) for my next Builds and to see pictures of the real life results !** (I might not build all of them, but most for sure) **All feedback is more than welcome !** I’m at the start of my MOCing journey, so **any and all advices/found errors/etc** are more than welcome ! 🙂 **Thank you for looking at my creation ! 😃** ---

**Almost done !** I have the back with the thrusters and docking bay left to do, after that details here and there and we’re pretty much done ! 😃 So probably **done in one or two days** 😛 Of course give it an extra day for stand and instruction making at least, but yeah, **Soon** (_TM_). It also appears that since this model is very thin, it’ll be alright in terms of piece number and therefor price ! It should sit nicely at around **1300/1500 parts** so **about 150/200 euros** (much better than the 400 for the Orca ⚰ ). Enjoy the screenshots and please feel free to leave comments and critics ! 😃 ![Capture du 2023-06-22 01-09-13](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/5/c/f/5cf4ad00e1ba5550d0da7bbc28198cc418234a84.png) ![Capture du 2023-06-22 01-09-19](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/9/7/d/97d1bde858ee8ed6b1c6ca12803e4d9286a7ad30.jpeg) ![Capture du 2023-06-22 01-09-28](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/7/3/b/73b52bd5024eccac8a443d7dcbf0e17187da55f1.png) ![Capture du 2023-06-22 01-09-47](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/4/8/7/4872350e481c8d5e57018d80c3e4b3e9e1689db5.png) **EDIT:** _One quick disclaimer_, the belly is _ **very very off** _ in terms of colors and a little in shape, there are multiple reasons for this. First, piece availability in Sand Green color isn’t the best (it is terrible in fact, sadly, gallente MOCs will suffer from this). Then fact that the model is actually super thin (two plates thick actually, yeah.), which forced me to use the belly as my main support structure, thus I wasn’t able to properly place parts to do the colors. Thinks might change after I build test it 🙂 ---

Designed to act primarily as a fighter carrier for small- to mid-scale engagements, its significant defensive capabilities and specially-fitted fighter bays make it ideal for its intended purpose.” (_Source : In Game Description_) One of the two best Carriers for ratting in EVE (PvE grinding Mob’s version of EVE) due to its racial damage boost to fighters. As an armor and capital ship, it is anything but agile. Since recent nerfs to capitals in general, it is not adivsed to try and rat in a carrier, thus the Thanatos has been recessed as a cheap entry for future Nyx pilots. **## Stats :** | Scale : | 1/5000 | | --- | --- | | In Game Size : | 2268 m | | Real Life Size : | 43,2 x 22,6 x 6,7 cm | | | 54 x 28,2 x 8,4 studs | | Number of Bricks : | 910 (1174 with stand) | | Average cost : | ~110 (140) € | **## Important Info :** None, _Yet_. **All my renders are available on [Imgur](https://imgur.com/user/ZejQuanta/posts) in 4K ! 🙂** **Follow my [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/zejquanta/) for my next Builds and to see pictures of the real life results !** (I might not build all of them, but most for sure) **All feedback is more than welcome !** I’m at the start of my MOCing journey, so **any and all advices/found errors/etc** are more than welcome ! 🙂 **Thank you for looking at my creation ! 😃** ---
