MOC Podracer

[CommanderFox]

Well as you now, I have been making afew MOCs from my 10195.

Here's my latest, A Podracer, which Commander Fox happens to be driving ...don't know how that happened.

The energy-plasma inbetween the engines is white as I don't have any trans-clear pink pieces. Also I had to do 2 rows of it because the engines would twist around and it got annoying.

Thanks I hope you like it and C and C is always Welcome!

the 10195...

Anyway, it's kinda nice, BUT you putted the cabbels wrong! and there is only a lightning connection between the engines

[RileyC]

Very nice. I like the colour scheme especially the dark tan bits in between the red blue and white. I think that to make it better you should just have one lightning connection, it will make it more authentic and look better but if you are playing with it then keep it like that

great job

i voted above average

Sorry. This is my first time at making a Pod so do bear in mind

Im not great with adding lighting-don't really know how. Maybe someone could make a tutorial for people like me.

How should the cables go?

Thanks

Yes if someone where to show me how to do a lightning connection then i would do it, but I don't have photoshop if that is what you need. Sorry.

Thanks i like the colour scheme as well.

Thanks! I guess you voted below average repubilcFORCES, oh well I will try and make it better.

Thanks and keep the comments coming!

Besides the power cuplinks, I really like this. The white circular pieces really take away from the MOC, if you could figure something out for those it's be a 10.

Good work.

[The Crazy One]

I like it. Nice design aswell. I won't mention the obvious problem though.

Above average for me.

Need to work on resizing those JUMBO pictures.

I went for above average. This podracer has everything a podracer would need, but as many previously have said, the power cables are wrong - I think. Apologies if you've since remade it. I haven't had access to the correct resources to check but I don't think the cables were there.

So do you think I should remove the white pieces that are parts of the engine?

Thanks!

Okay thanks for not mentioning.

Sorry I forgot to resize them.

You do mean the black cables connecting the pod to the engines, don't you? Or do you mean the white pieces?

If you do mean the black cables, then I can't change them as I don't really have anything else to use as a substitute.

Sorry I am new to making a pod, so I don't know alot about making them.

No I haven't since remade it.

Thanks again for the comments and keep em coming!

I think they are referring to the black cables. They are in the wrong position on the pod itself. they should be on the sides not on the front.

Here is a link to some pics etc that should help with the location of the cables and the "lightning" power binders that connect to the engines.

Thanks for that Star_Wars_Rules

I'll try to redo it soon.

Thanks all for the comments. Keep em coming.

Hello!

Those wheels for the front of the engines are a good choice! I think the most convenient method for making the engine connection glowing with some transparent pieces would be the TECHNIC

Nice podracer, but as a few people already mentioned, those white pieces should be replaced, with what Legostein said...

Hello!

Those wheels for the front of the engines are a good choice! I think the most convenient method for making the engine connection glowing with some transparent pieces would be the TECHNIC� axle connectors which have the same dimensions as the pin connectors you are currently using. With the difference that the axle connectors are available in transparent red.

Cheers,

...Together with these in Red.

[CommanderFox]

Thanks for the comments guys!

@ Legostein, thanks for the idea! I don't have any of those in Transparent red, but maybe a BL order in the future can change that.

@ Dennimator, I have afew of those, so no problems once I get some of those transparent red pieces (that Legostein mentioned) in the future.

Keep the C and C coming!

Thanks!
