A bit over a week ago, I was surfing around the Legoverse trying to find some
inspiration to build something space-related, and I came across the
Building The Future That Never
Was Contest on classic-space.com. I got to
thinking about the whole retro-future thing, and thought of doing a
Jetsons-style aircar, which of course means using the clear dome, and then I
thought of capturing the Cadillac fins of the late 1950’s and early 1960’s.
After much experimentation, this is what I came up with:
I’m especially happy with the studlessness of it... the only studs showing are
the headlamps (which don’t count, in my opinion) and a few studs half-visible on
the rear part of the hood. The underside is also smooth, using SNOT (Studs Not
On Top) construction to mount parts upside-down.
See it also on my
blog (Brickpile.com) and
on Flickr (or as
a slideshow).
