| (...) That's an idea, but this kit would be extremely expensive! I could probably make it in other colors if those wheels were only offered in something other than lime green. It certainly is food for thought, though... Thanks Adrian (URL) (22 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.build, lugnet.space, lugnet.town, FTX)

True, it is a bit larger than I'd wanted, but the size was set by those wheels, which are on the large size. If I had a (...) (22 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.build, lugnet.space, lugnet.town)
| |  | | Re: Hog SS Chopper MOC
|
| (...) Nice Trav....the technic bar at the back fills out the frame a bit. My only crit? For some reason, the front forks look a mite too long. I know it's a chopper and all, but for some reason I think that shorter forks would tighten up the (...) (22 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Interesting engine configuration Bram...I really like the inset trans rounds for engine ports. I'd have to agree the the cockpit while interesting in design, doesn't seem to gel as well as it could. Perhaps a dropped nose configuration...like (...)

| (...) Very interesting shape Daniel...I like it! I never thought of meshing the curved window elements with the quarter bell ones...excellent idea! Inverting the most of the building give the ship a really unique orientation..perfect high view for a (...) (22 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.space)

|
| (...) As always, your use of colour is superb, Sylvie...the red drk grey always works well, but your mixing of a couple small accent colour near the engine pods comes off quite well. The long 2wide drk grey slopes break up the box, but I can't help (...) (22 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.space)

| (...) 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 (...) (22 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| Derek: At dinner when you showed everybody your big set, I will begrudgingly admit that it was kind-a cool. good job. although a robot would have been a better use for those gears.

| (...) I think you failed the Technic scale modern motorcycle scale thing, but it's still a good MOC! Perhaps the Belville figures is a better fit? I recall something about them being bigger. Also, the "seat" is unreal. But so are the Minifig horse (...) (22 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.build, lugnet.space, lugnet.town)

| (...) 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) (22 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) I like the way the wings are angled. Too bad you didn't build it so that it could support its own weight *grin* (for those not there that night, I told him he ought to angle the wings because they would look nifty. He then bitched at me for (...) (22 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Wow, this is supremely cool. I love how every brick has all of its details shown built in, like the studs and the stud holes on the undersides of each brick, and your minifig is very well done indeed. Adrian (22 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

Eric Sophie gave me the lime green parts from one of these as he was driving back through town after (...) (22 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.build, lugnet.space, lugnet.town, FTX)

I agree with you on the engines and I am taking apart a (...) (22 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Thanx Fradel. The story is a mix of imagination, way too much sf reading and tongue-in-cheek writing in response to all the masculine stuff on LEGO Space sites. I'll try to build and write more. Thanx for the praise! Love, Sylvi (22 years ago, 19-Oct-03, to lugnet.space)
