ddeklerk Posted July 12, 2016 I love the way the car looks. The contrast between the grey exterior and the red seats works really well. And I love that gearbox. I wonder if it could be made any more compact. How did you make that gif of the gearbox? You may want to post some more photos showcasing the other features like the opening doors and such.

Kit Fisto Posted July 12, 2016 (edited) I like the gearbox design and that colour combo.Very clean and finished look! Edited July 12, 2016 by Kit Fisto Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rishab N Posted July 12, 2016 Great looking car. I like the color scheme Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
legolijntje Posted July 12, 2016 Interesting color for the body, most Technic models and MOC's have LBG parts on the inside, not LBG on the outside as bodywork. It looks quite nice. Also, that gearbox mechanism looks very nice. Great work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheMindGarage Posted July 12, 2016 Amazing gearbox mechanism! The front grille looks a little strange though - did someone put a piano keyboard there :P? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sm1995 Posted July 12, 2016 One thing that stands out to me about this build is how clean it is. Being a neat-freak myself I appreciate this build a lot. Good job! PS very cool gearbox mechanism. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jovel Posted July 13, 2016 Thank you all for your nice comments! Very cool gearbox switch, i like unusual parts usage The gearbox is made with regulair parts. only for the mirror I used unusual parts. What part is that for the wing mirrors? Like ddeklerk already said, it's indeed this part. And I love that gearbox. I wonder if it could be made any more compact. How did you make that gif of the gearbox? Maybe that the link mechanic could be a bit smaller, but I needed all the space above it for the gears. The animated gif was made with LDD and Gimp. With LDD, just move and rotate all the parts a bit for each frame and take screenshots. I think a used about 20 different frames for this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
