Awesome models Selçuk. I like how they all you plate and brick to "sculpt" the
shape of the real like vehicle. I especially like your Shuttle and Colonial
Viper. This is not to say your other aircraft and ship models aren't
cool.......They're just as awesome. Hmmm.... I wonder if I could make a
request, how about an APC or a Bomber ala B-2. ;-)

I've just uploaded several DAT files to dat.models. They are mostly from my • childhood, just before the darkages time,

very limited one(2) at the time that I built those, so sorry about stupid • looking color schemes and absurd use of
pieces.

The models are generally consists of 500-1500 pieces. I suggest using newly • introduced renderer, L3Lab, since and its
rendering speed and on the fly rotation are just like magic..:-)

Here are the models:

* Siat 223 Flamingo, my first attempt to built something real and actually • exist. Highly compressed though. From 1982,
IIRC (untouched).

* Sail Ship, built after inspiration from a 1979 catalog picture of famous USS • Constellation, from 1983, IIRC.
(untouched).

* Agricultural Amphibian Aircraft, I don't think such a configuration exists, • but I was not an aeronautical engineer at
that times, from 1984 (untouched).

* F4E Phantom, what a color scheme, from 1984 (very slightly revised in 1998).

* Attack Helicopter, from 1984 (widely revised in 1998).

* Oil Tanker, from 1983, IIRC (revised in 1998)

* Colonial Viper, my first MOC, completely built after the "awakening", from • 1998

* Titanic (I know, I know..:-), inspired of course from the movie, second post • "awakening" MOC, from 1998.

* Space Shuttle, my first scale model and third MOC after "awakening", from • 1999.

I hope you like them..:-)


(1) They really built once. The predarkage ones were rebuilt after wake up, by • using 2D instructions prepared by hand
drawing (yeeess..:-), I have hand drawn instructions for many models that I • built during my childhood), then slightly
revised in some cases, and computer versions of 3D instructions have been • built by using LeoCAD.

(2) ~2000 pieces consisting of 033, 30, 107, 6624, 6627, 6654, 6367, 8841, • 8845 and 8860 + several extras from here or
there. It is a ~40000 pieces one right now, still growing, but I can't feel • myself as creative as these "too less lego"
Lego times of my childhood..:-(

(...) Thank you very much for your nice words...:-) I like "sculpting" like this but actually it is closely related with being a rather old timer (I got my first set in 1976) and having "bricks and plates mostly" type of collection when I started (...)
