Mclaren P1 Hypercar MOC

@madcow,  it is nice to present such mocs here

I like the mixed body style as flex axles are prominent, yet were still able to close things in nicely. Well done

You have done an absolutely incredible job for your first ever Technic creation.  Congrats!

I'm not really too big of a fan of cars whose bodies are mainly designed with flex axles, I think they become a bit too crowded...

I can still enjoy this though, it's so beautifully designed!

I thought the roof was a bit off, but I guess it's as good as it gets in Lego! well-done!

Madcow, how long did it take you to build this supercar from the early beginning?

@madcow forgive me if you already have answered this question, but do you plan to make building instructions of McLaren P1? 

Thanks

I have suggested it to Hof madcow! Hope It goes in!

This model deserves to be i Hof. I personally do not like modern hypercar designs, but this interpretation of McLaren P1 is perfect achievement

I do not know if I will have the time during the school year, but expect a breakdown at some point. Most of the spare time I have will be dedicated to my Dodge viper ACR model.

It took me about a year because I have only been building with technic for about 1 and a half years now. I was a system guy before that building 6 wide cars. The model has gone through about 3 iterations at this point, this being the final version. I consider the early models to be very primitive compared to the final product. Most of the time was spent waiting to source parts and restructuring the entire chassis. It was a long process having no prior experience with technic, I wanted to try to get a well balanced car that had proper structure/ engineering and a clean aesthetic. The body only took me about a month to actually create, while the 3rd iteration of the chassis including the monocell and the 3rd iteration of the gearbox took me 3 months to complete.

But you made great job no matter how long it takes

A little flat but since it is lego much can't be done.

There have been many Mclaren models but I think this is one of my favourites :)

Nice work, the flex axels give this car a lovely shape and flow

As others have said - very nice job if it´s your first Technic car !
