Darth Legolas Posted January 25, 2009 Posted January 25, 2009 Believe it or not, this started out as a castle MOC. Now do you all remember the day I came here I said I like all categories? Well, mostly I'm a Star Wars fan, but hear I am, building an Indy Jones MOC. So, mixing Indy Jones style techniques and my own collection, without further a due I give you: Surprisingly, it's the same size as the bigger vehicle in the chase for stolen treasure set!

Bricks Posted January 25, 2009 Posted January 25, 2009 (edited) Nice car! Look's really like the one from the street cars in ''Temple of Doom''. Maybe you could add some more detail's, like bigger headlamps. But otherwise it's a great moc, wich is an cool extra for the set: '7682 Shanghai Chase'!

Darth Legolas Posted January 25, 2009 Author Posted January 25, 2009 Thanks, I based it off of that car, and added a little "armored car" feeling I had from seeing a huge armored hummer pass by my house yesterday. I still wonder where that monster of a car was headed... I mean really! Both lanes of the street! Quote
Millacol88 Posted January 25, 2009 Posted January 25, 2009 Its certainly a neat little car. Perhaps you can add doors on the side, and maybe make it longer so as to hold extra seats, but other than that, it looks very cool. Kind of like a '50s hummer. Quote

But there are some cars where you climb in through the roof. I think. I'll put a swing hinge on the sides. Somehow. Quote
Millacol88 Posted January 25, 2009 Posted January 25, 2009 Cars where you climb in through the roof? Is the ladder sold separately? Quote
Darth Legolas Posted January 26, 2009 Author Posted January 26, 2009 I've got the perfect idea for a door. I'll need to take out both sides, and rather than using hinge pieces, use single circular studs, making a swinging open wall, acting as a door. I'll also take a comparison picture with the big tank thingy from the race for stolen treasure. Quote
samthelegoman1 Posted May 13, 2009 Posted May 13, 2009 Looks more like a hearse than a limo! If you want a lomousine-ish look, make the hood shorter and make the body look longer and sleeker. Otherwise, good job. Quote

DoctorDude234 Posted May 17, 2009 Posted May 17, 2009 Just because it's 4 months old doesn't mean we can't post! And yeah, it looks awesome, but the body should be longer. But it is nice, and a great Shanghai Chase addition. Quote

But it is nice, and a great Shanghai Chase addition. Well... since It was made so long ago, I have spruced it up quite a bit. I added a hidden door, second seat, more detailed boy, and better underneath. I replaced all the flashy light bley with black, so now it seems more real. Quote
