| | | I took a break from studying midterms to build a small ship, somewhat inspired by an </space/?n=27080 idea> I posted in August. (3 URLs) The Disc Racer> This was a chance to use some dark red and other parts aquired in BrickFest purchases. I really (...)

| | | | | (...) Bram, wow. This is one sweet little craft. Love the contrast of the sleek round flat disc with the fin and cockpit/engine. Some pro-crazy snotwork you've got going there. And the use of dark red where and how you did really adds to it; makes (...) (21 years ago, 17-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | | | Re: New MOC: Disc Racer —Bram Lambrecht
|
| | | | | | (...) Thanks! (...) Familiarity with the 5 plates to 2 studs really helps here. The only SNOT parts I used were about 24 of these: 4 of these: and 4 of these: [LDrawPart 6541:15] [LDrawPart 4081b:15] [LDrawPart 4070:15] (...) It was really difficult (...)

| | | | | (...) Wow! I really liked this ship. Cool SNOT design and very innovative shape. It reminded me vaguely of a much sleeker version of my own (URL) Confederate Antigrav Fighter>. Your very cool creation might inspire me to make more ships with this (...) (21 years ago, 17-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | Hi Bram, I am not a huge space fan but your creation rocks! I love the circle form and your snot construction. The white and dark red color scheme works well. The detailed hull is nice as well. Ben E. (21 years ago, 17-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | Re: New MOC: Disc Racer —Joe Meno
|
| | | | | (...) Wow, a unique take on a winged craft! This is a great looking ship, with one truly distinct shape. The landing gear is a nice touch, too, but the coolest thing is the open area around the cockpit. That's just cool! Pulling my jaw off the (...) (21 years ago, 18-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

|
| | | | | (...) WOW - this is amazing! The unique shape, great colors and cool details (awesome landing gear!) makes this ship ROCK! I love all the SNOT work and the engine looks good too. There seem to be a lack on controls in the cockpit, though. Awesome. (...) (21 years ago, 18-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | | | Re: New MOC: Disc Racer —Bram Lambrecht
|
| | | | | | (...) Glad you liked it! (...) I know. That's one thing I'm not really happy about. It was difficult enough getting a fig to fit inside that tiny cockpit, so I guess the controls are "hidden" in the studs on top of the car doors... If anyone has a (...)

| | | | | | (...) It seems like you might be able to fit the little space levers on the studs on the doors, allowing for a throttle and a steering joystick. Pretty cook design, I really like it overall. Daniel Rubin (21 years ago, 18-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | Re: New MOC: Disc Racer —John Henry Kruer
|
| | | | | (...) Swweet! That's really cool, Bram. The whole ship has a really cool shape, and the color scheme, dark red and white, works well. And the flaps and the landing gear is really cool, especially for such a thin craft. Only critisism is that the (...) (21 years ago, 18-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | Re: New MOC: Disc Racer —Paul Baulch
|
| | | | | (...) Awesome. I love the landing gear and the red double lines with projections on the wing, very dynamic and really nicely done. One set of pilot controls short of a perfect score. Cheers, (URL) Sci-Fi LEGO> (21 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | Re: New MOC: Disc Racer —Adrian Drake
|
| | | | | (...) Now that I've seen it in person, I'm really impressed with the SNOT techniques on this, as well as how round the whole shape was made with all those slopes. A very nice job! Adrian (URL) (21 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | (...) This is gorgeous Bram....so elegant. I tried to build a similar craft a while ago, but couldn't coax a convincing oval out of 45 and 33 degree slopes...using the long convex curves works wonderfully. Placing the cockpit on an angle works so (...) (21 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | Bram, This is a beautiful MOC. One of the most unique designs I've seen. I especially like the way you worked in the details like the landing gear, the flaps, and the stripes in such a compact space. Bruce (21 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

|
| | | | (...) At least I'm not a hoser. Really neat little ship, Bram. There's a lot of neat details. The ones that stick out to me are the dk red fins that raise out of the wing, and using doors to achieve the angle on the cockpit. Good job. (2 URLs) (21 years ago, 22-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
