Dear Eve Fans and CCP

EDIT
as the idea totaly is misuntherstood i will try to explain :)

Parts and Toys will bring out the set for you to buy this means we take care the bricks the instructions and people can take part in it if they can create lego ships then they can post on the partsandtoys website also there is a chat there that you can talk to me instead of lurking around lol as i am busy i can not await respons in the game .... so :

1 You dont need lego to do the parts
2 we will provide the parts
3 you or we provide the models
4 we will profide the bricks
5 all models are buyable if they follow the conditions set that only bricks that are available are used.

i started with a rifter but there can be multible versions the rifter i am designing have a span with of 102 cm and i think a length of about 120cm i am not sure yet i still work on that project i posted some pictures on the site... and its work in progress
as i am a sf fan and eve fan and lego fan lets do this :P
end EDIT

i here by post a link to help out with eve models in lego® bricks

http://partsandtoys.nl/wordpress-3.9.1-nl_NL/wordpress/rules-to-add-your-own-design/

if ccp aproves offcource and there are no copyright conflicts i am willing to help out later when we done the museum we can dedicate a special spot for all eve models to be visable :)

Lego rejected designs from EvE as they do not want to be associated with the game. If this is an official Lego museum this probably won't get far. Just a heads up.

I would have paid good money for Eve lego. I would have bought any and every model they would have released.

its an unofficial lego museum even lego world is not from the lego group® anymore

what i offer is the designer to contact me send me the file and i will take care the rest as in parts and the instructions so people can buy the set the creator will be mentioned on the instructions and get a commision from each set sold for his effort that all i can do to help both fans out

and the sky is the limit :P

Didn't someone do a Lego Rifter a few years back and submitted it on the official Lego site, and while it got enough hits to be taken to a official review it was knocked back

Slight bit of misinformation there - LEGO didn't choose the design because of its limited market potential, rather than it being related to EVE; They did like the idea of working with internet spaceships, but it would need to have a far larger market than it does currently.

After a few hours of tinkering I've made a realistic representation of the Phoenix:

And then rammed the Catalyst model into all the others, breaking them, over and over again I imagine.

If anyone builds EVE LEGO® models with LDD or LDRAW just convo me ingame. I am doing some research to render LEGO® models.

Optimal are models done with LDRAW parts because this will give high-res models with LEGO® logos on all studs. LDD models can be exported to LDRAW but there are many parts missing. But it's also possible to capture the low-poly geometry directly from LDD for some nice renders.

Here are two examples of my actual work in progress. Click on the pictures for 4K/8K details.

7130 - Snowspeeder

10179 - Millennium Falcon UCS

hello :)

i redused the wing span from 102 to 91 cm and the length is about 92 cm seems this version is getting pretty big .. estimate cost round 500 euro so after i finished this i will also work on a smaller version its not finished yet i first do it roughly then build a real model and after that make final instructions . since lego parts are sometimes rare specialy if you like details i have bought some parts allready to secure 40 models thats the max of models that can be bought of this version give or take a few the smaller version i have no idea yet i try to make a rifter model thats between 100 and 200 euro after this keep in mind when lego stoot you up you need to buy lego from them and from other lego fans this means that prices of lego are not to be compared with whats in the stores i try to get the best prices to make it as cheap as posible at least there will be eve models in bricks buyable :)

current state of the model
