Meatman Posted February 18, 2017 Posted February 18, 2017 (edited) I am one of the few that cannot stand the art of liftarms and pin connectors over flex axles. I say art, because to me this isn't really building and is instead a form of "sculpting". This style reminds me of aluminum pie pans and macaroni necklaces. But overall the car does look very nice.

DugaldIC Posted February 18, 2017 Posted February 18, 2017 Looking good as always bro! I'm glad I was able to help you out when needed. Definitely your best, most complicated moc yet!! Quote
Kristof Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 I like it very much. Even the wheelarches do stand out a bit to much, I think it somehow adds to the aggressive character. I also don't mind that the bodywork panelink is lnow particularly smooth and has a diverse part selection - in the end I think it blends together nicely. Cool lights, cool doors (could be less like a catapult blast though :D ), great overall look. Very well done! Quote

I figured as I was modelling the Lykan Hypersport, the lights would have to stand out. Yes, the doors could be deadly, but that's the price millionaires must pay to take a ride in my car! Lol Someone mentioned the front bumper would look awesome in black. I tried that out and must say, I might like this look a bit better...

letsbuild Posted February 22, 2017 Posted February 22, 2017 I prefer the last iteration, but that may just be me. Quote
Victor Imaginator Posted February 22, 2017 Posted February 22, 2017 Black grille + red bumper give more accent to shapes as i think. Agreed with @letsbuild Quote

brickhank Posted March 4, 2017 Posted March 4, 2017 Very recognizable. Although I have to admit I also had to convince myself before stepping into this nerdy hobby again after roughly 30 years... (boys will be boys, especially if they have a technical background, I guess... ) Quote

2LegoOrNot2Lego... Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Very cool design, I really love how you "closed" the body work. It's hard to achieve this with the Technic panels but you did a great job. Cool that's shared this build...well deserved! Quote
