[MOC] Far Cry 3 buggy

[Petter]

Hi! I've been a member here for a while, and I'm amazed by the creations all of you guys come up with!

I didn't really care about LEGO Technic when I was a child, but two years ago (I'm 24 years old now) I bougth a Technic set on impulse, and I was sold. I've built a couple of MOCs the past years, but none of them turned out to be really great. Almost a year ago I got inspired by Far Cry 3, and created a buggy from the game. A week ago I wanted to improve it, and here is the result:

No advanced technical solutions in this model, my focus was on the looks of the car. Suspension on all four wheels, working steering wheel in the cabin and HoG steering ( the spare wheel on the roof). are the only functions.

I'm not able to add more pictures here ( because this is my first post here, maybe?), but you can see more on http://mocpages.com/moc.php/375682.

Regards

Petter

Wow, that is one good lucking buggy! The HoG steering with the spare tire is a great find.

Do you have an LDD model of it as I'd love to build a copy ?

Looks great, but does the front suspension bar hold?

[Lakop]

That's a nice model man. I like your steering.

Ya, very cool MOC. Very accurate and realistic.

Let me add my congrats as well

[Petter]

Thanks, everyone!

Looks great, but does the front suspension bar hold?

. The shock towers bend slightly inwards when suspension is compressed, and the axles pop out once in a while, so it's not a ideal setup.

That looks really nice, Well done.
