T.A.C. Mk.2 Attack Fighter

Hi guys! Last time we left you all anticipating the post of the final Photos of this fighter. Well here they are....
Here is the cockpit, the windshield has been raised to get a clear view inside of the fighter. The trans-blue screen is the H.U.D.
Here is a closer pic of the H.U.D. or Heads Up Display. It displays stats of the Mk.2 at the pilots request, displays enemy fighter stats when focused on by the targeting device, displays the targeting device, speed, altitude when the fighter is in the sky, pressure for when the fighter is in space. It also has the fly-by-wire device installed, and broadcasts messages from other pilots.
Here are the other controls vital to the fighters success, on the right is the Heat control, Ac control, Auto pilot control, and IFSM or In-Flight Speaking Message system which is just a fancy name for the comm system. On the left we have the Hyper drive coordinates selector as well as the  Hover option which allows the fighter to ''hover'' above a certain thing. Next comes the Pilots control sticks which have the weapon-fire selection on them for both missiles and cannon. They allow the pilot to maneuver the fighter as well.
Here are the thrusters which propel the fighter. The two on the bottom are optional, but they were enthusiastically excepted by T.A.C.
Now we have the underbelly shot of the fighter with all of its weapons and missiles displayed.
List of missiles and type (left to right) Phoenix Mk.2 missile air-to-air these have excellent tracking but not as much power as the Phoenix Mk.1 which comes next. Phoenix Mk.1 air-to-air, next up is the Reaper-9 missile which is a missile designed for ground attack. And my favorite which is next is the Sorcerer-A0 which is a convertible missile meant for attacking ground targets (like large buildings) or objects in space or in the sky (like a spaceship)
And here is a cool photo of the Mk.2, I hope you all enjoyed this post (I know I did!) :) Thank you all for reading!

T.A.C. Mk 2 Attack Fighter

Hi guys, this is the Mk 2 Attack Fighter produced for and by the T.A.C. military. It is under testing right now so it will be posted AGAIN with new updates. Which will include more missiles, relocation of the extra engines, some possible changes of the cockpit and possibly changes on the main engine.
You will be able to tour the cockpit more in depth on the next posting.
Here are the armaments which I will list (and explain). I hope to add 2-4 more missiles. So I'm going to leave you all anticipating the next post but wanted to show you the new fighter! Because I am so excited to show you all the fighter more in depth! It has some pretty awesome features! Thanks for reading!

LEGO Sopwith Camel

This is a LEGO Sopwith Camel that we built.
It is a  British fighter plane from WW1.
  • Max. speed: 200km/h (125mph)
  • Range: 485km (300 miles)
  • Armament: two 27mm machine guns; up to four bombs
To distinguish their fighters from German planes, British pilots painted a red, white and blue roundel onto their wings and fuselage.
 The Camel took its name from a hump in the engine casing that partly covered the two machine guns.

The Elven Gateway

Hi guys, today we have a set that I designed myself based on the Lego set 79012 Mirkwood Elf army. We bought two of the sets and created this Elven Gateway.
These are the lookout trees. They form perfect vantage points for skilled Elven archers and a supreme spotting post for lookouts.

Here is King Thranduil watching over his Woodland realm.
This Elvish scout is being sent out to warn another outpost of an attack.
This is the box of the original 79012 set. 
Thanks for Reading!

This is a LEGO model of the Red Baron, which is a German flying ace of WW1. 

Baron Manfred von Richthofen was the pilot that flew this plane, he shot down 80 planes. In 1917, he painted his Fokker DR1 fighter bright red,to match his cavalry regiment flag, and earned the nickname  'Red Baron'. He was shot  down in 1918, while swooping over a battlefield in a dogfight with two British Sopwith Camels.
