R-104 Metal Heart
I had a blast with this one! The model was inspired from the R-Type game series and I hope the design honors the style.
There’s a full construction video on YouTube, showing seven major build steps. It does a nice job of explaining how the R-104 Metal Heart comes together.
There's a digital design file and parts inventory available here for personal play.
The final build is 4021 elements without the stand. 239 of those are the D-SNOT part which unlocked the engine geometry and other design aspects. I had fun using several other new-ish parts too.
