Having been spurred on by this thread, last night I perfected keyboards, and
will have a LeoCAD rendering later and a photo of my band soon. Anyway:
One space control panel (piece 2342)
One black 2x4 plate
One black 1x4 plate
One black 1x4 tile
One grey 1x4 Technic gear rack
I'm sure you can work out how to put it all together if you have the pieces
around... my own one is customised with an extra synth on top, offset with a
computer monitor. (I'm like that).
I've also made my own version of Brickenrocker guitars (because I don't have
the pieces to make them properly) using a Space robot arm (piece 4735), a
1x2 grille tile (piece 2412) and a 1x1 plate on the back. A little bit
small, and the neck tends to bend, but perfectly usable.
And... as if that wasn't enough, I got closer to getting the drum kit right,
although one cymbal is held on solely by luck! Basically, two headlight
holders, one 2x2 round plate as the front of the bass, a 1x2/1x4 bracket on
the back of that plate to provide a place for a snare (2x2 tile) and a high
tom (1x1 tile), low tom (2x2 round brick), hi-hat on the left of the drummer
(an antenna with two 2x2 radar dishes, one either way up) and two cymbals -
one a 2x2 radar dish mounted by luck (impossible to describe) from the last
stud on the bracket and a 4x4 dish (big cymbal!) on an antenna to the right.
Anyway, I have a band now, as I said - Lego Street Preachers - and there
will be photos as soon as a venue has been built for them, and maybe it'll
make the above descriptions a bit easier to follow. And LeoCAD renderings
are in the post!

| What instruments (besides guitars and such) have people made for Minifigs? I'm thinking along the lines of an orchestra or something. The only thing I've done so far is a flute. (1) Jeff P.S. What song do Town minifigs like the best? "Sunglasses at (...) (26 years ago, 30-Dec-98, to lugnet.general)
