Fambaa are the tall
lizard creatures indigenous to the swamps of Naboo that helped to
make Gungan Energy Shields to protect the Gungan Grand Army against
Trade Federation in The Phantom Menace. This is the second
rendition of the fambaa I've made; the first was made from a MEGA
BLOKS dinosaur set I got for Christmas a few years back. Having
become the LEGO purist that I have, I set out to redo it completely
in LEGO. I basically converted it into LEGO, adding slopes and wedges
to smooth the rough shape from the limited/limiting elements (1x2,
2x2, and 2x4 bricks) that I used on the original version. It's still
a little blocky, but I didn't want to change it too much, as the
size was surprisingly accurate (the original was made before I had
a scaling system), and I liked the basic look of it. I plan to make
the shield emmiter soon, but I'm still working on a design.
