If it reaches 10k supporters, it might become an official LEGO set!

 

As I reached 2 000 supporters recently, I wanted to thank you all with a new picture of jeb in space!

Very impressive!

[Zweistein]

Thanks, took me quite a long time to build!

[DoctorKerman]

I really how you made your Lego build to look like the loading screen image.

If this doesn’t become a LEGO set then I’m going to be very disappointed.

Sorry if you already tried that but, in case you haven't, to make hair, perhaps you could change the pieces on top of his head to black variants.

There is this set too: https://ideas.lego.com/projects/a065c3b5-50d1-4868-b06f-6b22457dab07/official_comments#content_nav_tabs , if both get past 10,00 it will be even more likely we get KSP Lego sets!

Haha, yeah I would be dispointed too, but I think I am gonna do the building instruction anyway. Only problem is that some pieces doesn't exist in the required color.

I already tried and couldn't find a working design, but I plan on trying harder. I will update the project as I manage to find a good looking solution.

Maybe try printing out a paper with a net for the hair shape and putting it on Jeb after folding it, or if you have a 3d printer print and model a specific pice for it.

[Zozaf Kerman]

Well, I’m ready to pay like $80 for that!

That is a good idea but I don't have a physical model, it is done on a computer! The pictures are render, not real Lego.

Given that this is Lego, and that the model has more than 2000 pieces, it is more likely to cost around $200 if this becomes an official set.

Update: Jeb now has hair!

Wow, nice!

[DoctorKerman]

Now Jeb looks even better! His hair looks so cool with the triangle piece thingies(sorry I don’t speak LEGO) 

Also congrats on 771 supporters at the time this was posted!

Must be the hair

Love it, though I'd modify the mouth to be more smile-y 

Now when I look at it he's more screaming than grinning. Some triangl-ish pieces on the bottom of the mouth would help, if that's even possible

I did try a few things to make his mouth look more like a smile, but with no big success.
