 | | 2 SNOT-heavy MOCs: Open wagon and WAG-7 Class
|
|
Well okay they're both CAD but I'm reasonably sure the construction techniques work. First on my list is this wagon inspired by the very talented misterzumbi's (URL) box car>: (2 URLs) Long story short: Tim G. figured the SNOTing used to get the (...)

(...) Thanks. I had some requests to see the unaltered pics of the Vore Del Mecha, though that's sort of like seeing a picture of a guy in an Alien suit sipping coffee before the camera rolls. ;-) It's just not scary without the flashing strobes and (...)

(...) Nice! Very heavy-duty look, and I like how the black-and-gray scheme turned out. Having the reverse-knee armor plating mounted on a separate set of click-hinges is an inventive way of armoring-up those Exo-Force joints. I had a look at the (...)

For what it's worth, I think Brian Cooper's Bandolero was my favourite right from the start. The story was lost a little on me since I don't hardly speak a word of Spanish. I am grateful for the recently posted unedited shots of the finished mech. (...) (19 years ago, 11-Feb-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

It would be interesting to see if you have found ways to use parts in an environment totally different from what it was meant to be in. Like some cute single-purpose Scala utensil in a sci-fi scene or some hopeless Duplo block... well somewhere, I (...) (19 years ago, 10-Feb-06, to lugnet.build)

Ah, the cab windows seemed harder to pull off than the side windows, which is why I focused on those. For the nose though, I don't see why he wouldn't be able to use the new window on the crane car in the freight set. I didn't mean the Krokodil (...)

Hi Fradel, It's a good military Mecha MOC but the legs are so chunky it looks to me like a Mech that's 'eaten' too much. Maybe you should have called it 'Max Body Fat'? I like all the 'pods' stuck on the back and the opening hatch so you can get a (...) (19 years ago, 10-Feb-06, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) I love it. The legs, in particular - they're so magnificently chunky. The body has a nice hefty feel to it too. I like that you've managed to fit two minfigs in the body without making it too big, and there's some lovely SNOTing in there. (...) (19 years ago, 10-Feb-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
