Not too long ago, I re-vamped a hovercar that I had originally made to hold
two passengers; that idea soon went out the window in order to try and
spiff it up a considerable amount. However, even when I was done with
this second version, I wasn’t exactly happy with it entirely--the SNOT
areas on the front and sides still stuck-out a little from the rest of the
body. I didn’t think I had the pieces necessary to revise it, and so I
waited
to take photographs of it until I was at home and could make those
modifications...
Then came the Civilian Space MOC contest.
Trying to come-up with an entry so I could hopefully get involved in my
first contest as a participant and not just an observer, I created a small
hovercar using mostly pieces from the 4403 Designer set. After a few
revisions of that, I felt comfortable enough to try and submit it. In
the
midst of all this, I got an idea for my previous hovercar, and within
about an
hour-point-five, I fixed what I had wanted to with it. Not much,
but at least
I learned what I needed to do with those panels...
Now, without further ado, here are the hovercars:

I teased this a week or so ago, but got permission to enter it. About the
only definitive character I have right now, Xeron, is at the controls.
The third version of the first hovercar I ever made.
Ladybug:

The vehicle made from a bit of pieces from 4403, it also features a Rikhu
pilot (if only because I don’t have any minifigs with me). Speedy, but
unsafe; its like a teenager’s dream car.
Well, that’s about it for now. Please leave me some comments if you
would!

| Hi Roy, Nice design for Xeron's hovercar, I like it very much! The volumes you have for the front part & back part, as opposed to the thiner central cockpit, give a nice "sport" and fast feel to it, pretty powerfull. Some kind of muscle car! It (...) (20 years ago, 7-May-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Hover-cars for bots? What a novel idea! Awesome! Xeron's car looks better, imo. The Ladybug has less over-all aesthetic continuity, but some unique piece usage. Very interesting. Definately show promise - if not in its current form, then as (...) (20 years ago, 10-May-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
