Noisemaker Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) Hi all :) I wrote this post to present two of my moc inspired by Hydrogen Fuel Cell technology :) Why this subject? Firstly because I believe hydrogen could really be a valid alternative to classic cars fuel. Combined with electric cars it enable green power and short stop to re-fuel the car (not hours as battery powered cars require). In second way, my original idea was to build a city fuel station, but I didn't want the classic boring fuel station. It's a set we've already seen in multiple version, both by Lego and MOC. So...stop the words and here we go with photos :) You can see 3 of them here and other are in the flickr album FLICKR ALBUM As you can see final version of my moc use 2 plates 32x32 stud, so it's fully compatible with modulars. We have 4 hydrogen pump (2 on each side) and a small shop with foods, driks, newspapers and so on. The grey part inside the shop is a sort of shelf, but LDD don't allow to put things on it :( Outside the shop we have the big hydrogen tank protected by a fence and a little space to check tire pressure and other small car settings. I created also a "new logo" for this line of fuel. The company is the storic Octan and the name "Hy Energy" is a claim both for "Hydrogen Energy" and "High Energy" :D :D The fake stickers in the 1st image was applied with photoshop :) With the same idea of hydrogen fuel cell, I created also a city bus, based on set 7641. The exterior is quite similar (some small changes are mirrors and colors) but the inside structure was totally redesigned with SNOT technique to allow two (half) tank of hydrogen under the chassis. I hope you like them and wait any critics, suggestion or similar :) NOTE: to avoid problem or similar please note that I used some ideas from moc around the web for some part of the structure ;) Edited October 1, 2014 by Noisemaker Quote

Especially if you put it onto Lego Ideas, I think you should have made a bigger effort for your own design of the roof and other details than just copying it 1:1... Quote

I'm really sorry, I never want to copy anything... I just found that image you have in your signature on google images where I searched to grab some ideas to make the roof over the pumps and I really liked the curved piece as the solution to make the border.
