 | | Technic scale bike fun
|
| While Bram was at my house building his II-Blade, I set to work on my first Technic Fig scale bike. Ostensibly it's a turbocycle, and part of my turbocycle league. However, it's more of a miniland or techic model by scale, and town by theme. It's a (...) (22 years ago, 19-Oct-03, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.build, lugnet.space, lugnet.town, FTX)
| | | | | New MOC: II-Blade
|
| I went over to Adrian's house today and took advantage of his collection being 5 times bigger than mine to build my first dark gray MOC. This time, the ship does have controls: (3 URLs) II-Blade> I especially like the way the rear of the ship turned (...)

| Hi. Great stuff. Its not too often we see girl spacers in here. You have a cool storyline. I was curious if you were running a satire on the church and space genre. Anyway I love your work so keep it up. Fradel (22 years ago, 19-Oct-03, to lugnet.space)

|
| (...) Thanks for the comments, it's always nice to have feedback. I've decided that what this thing really needs is a small robotic rover to fit in the back, so I'm working on that now. Thanks on the landing pads, I bought a couple of the small (...) (22 years ago, 19-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
| | | | | Re: MOC PCS Shuttle
|
| (...) Thanks, I originally wanted to put handles on the back (some vertical bars along the side, and also on the door) but it turned out that I didn't have the parts, so that's part of why it's so flat. I think maybe a control pad or something might (...) (22 years ago, 19-Oct-03, to lugnet.space)

| (...) Daniel- This is a great vessel! Reads as "utility" to me and I think the form suits it well. Neat cockpit configuration and I think the landing pads are sweet (haven't seen that yet). I like the subtle greeblies and the juxtaposed differing (...) (22 years ago, 18-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Bram- What a superb study break! I love it and would very much like to have it sitting on my desk. I really like the overall form, the negative space (as Joe said: "The landing gear is a nice touch, too, but the coolest thing is the open area (...) (22 years ago, 18-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
| | | | | Re: MOC PCS Shuttle

| (...) Hi there Daniel, Well I have to congratulate you on this model. You have created some very nice curved lines and an intersting canopy arrangement - although the cockpit is looking a bit sparse on the inside. I love the landing gear and you (...) (22 years ago, 18-Oct-03, to lugnet.space)

| (...) 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 (22 years ago, 18-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
| | | | | Re: New MOC: Disc Racer

| (...) Thanks. (...) I didn't want to use my normal white background for a white MOC, so I grabbed the first large piece of colored paper I found in my house. Unfortunately, the fibers in that paper kind of stand out, especially since the paper has (...) (22 years ago, 18-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
| | | | | Re: New MOC: Disc Racer
|
| (...) 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 (...)

| (...) 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 (...)

| | | | | MOC PCS Shuttle
|
| Hello all, I'm mostly a lurker around here, but I met most of you at Brickfest. Anyways, I designed this PCS styled shuttle in MLCAD during my torts class for the past few weeks, and finally got it put together and photographed. The magnets on top (...)

| (...) 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 (...) (22 years ago, 18-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Hehe, I was thinking the same thing. The pilot must fly via mind control :) Great ship though, and a nice, distinctive shape too. Adrian (URL) (22 years ago, 18-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| Good stuff, Pat! I think the Calypso is especially groovy and really has a CS or PCS appeal. At first glance it has those cool, sci-fi kind of details and features that make one ask "Woah, what does that thing do?" It definitely looks like an (...) (22 years ago, 18-Oct-03, to lugnet.space)
