Peppermint_M Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 Variable Fighter and BubbleMint Just some space craft with SNOT involved. More images will be forthcoming on my MOCpages. Quote
Milan Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 Variable Fighter is nice example of great usage of SNOT. I like when I see something like this: shapes that cannot be replicated with ordinary brick building! I like the fact that this ship is without studs, which really look smooth to me! Nice! Quote
Zorro Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 Both Spacecrafts look very nice. I do like the Variable Fighter more because you managed to use some quite 'uncommon' parts in it . Quote
KDog Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 I'm not sure "SNOT Space Craft" is a good name... ;-) Quote
Dannylonglegs Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 I like the bubble thing alot because of the uncommon colors, and their use, I like it's shape too, and can imaginne it in a futuristic world like that of the SP3. I like the variable fighter too, but I'm not so sur I like the engines Quote
Peppermint_M Posted November 11, 2009 Author Posted November 11, 2009 Variable Fighter on MOCpages. There are a few more photos. I did build the BubbleMint to fit into my personal universe I have been creating does include the Space Police III sort of things. Quote
LuxorV Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 These crafts are very nice in both design and colours choice, and they use some interesting techniques I should try to include more in my MOCs. Really good job, Peppermint_M LuxorV Quote
Batbrick Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 Very nice Peppermint_M, I love the SNOT techniques you've used especially with the dishes on the front of the Variable Fighter. I like the Bubblemint better though for its delightful colour scheme and looking more structurally sound. Batbrick Away! Quote
Ras 74 Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 SNOTy things are always very nice to see. I always start looking if there is any studs that has been forgoten in a buildings like this. I think you have done a great job with that ship. The other one is a really funny and inovative use with colors. Makes me wanna see the rest of your "Personal Universe". Quote
brickzone Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 Two very nice spacecraft, and the SNOT is used to good effect, as are the modern curved hulls (these make for great spacecraft IMO compared to the angular wedge pieces I had to build with as a kid). The BubbleMint is quite striking with the medium blue colouring and the stickered/printed pieces, and the purple actually works in really well. I like how the spacecraft have such a polished look - they don't look overlaboured or fussy, even though variable fighter has some detail at the back and BubbleMint has some well-chosen details like those modified plates with enginy detail on either side. I'm itching to get building some Space, but unfortunately I've higher priorities such as a Winter town scene for Winter Toy Shop, and then I am really wanting to design a crazy Indy scenario that's a bit of a mash-up of Temple Escape and Temple of the Crystal Skull, and I still have vague plans (and a half-finished facade) for a modular building Opera House (plus kitting out of Café Corner). So for now my Space sets languish in the bottom storage box of Lego that I have under the stairs. :( Quote
Big Cam Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 The first one is great, I don't see a single stud. ANd the second one is, um, colorful Quote
Peppermint_M Posted November 12, 2009 Author Posted November 12, 2009 Thanks I am hoping to get a few views of the underside of the Variable Fighter and more photos of the BubbleMint. As for my personal universe? I'm really working on it, there are a few more MOCs I need to make before I am ready to fully unveil the concept and some are near finished and waiting on next years themes and for me to bother to make a bricklink order . Lets just say I am in love with Zeerust/Retrofuturistic these days, which has really influenced both my writing and my MOCing. Quote
Commander Flash Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 (edited) I love bubblemint. Its very creative in shape and color Edited November 14, 2009 by Commander Flash Quote
squidman85 Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 Great spacecrafts,thought .Second one is so beautiful ! Quote
Legostein Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 Hello! The second one was more attractive to me, although both look very sleek. I especially like the use of printed wedges and slopes on the second one. They give it a really interesting and unique look. Cheers, ~ Christopher Quote
Peppermint_M Posted November 14, 2009 Author Posted November 14, 2009 I've made another craft in similar style to BubbleMint, I'll post it tommorrow somtime. The style it has really fits well with the concept so I shall be building a few more. I might try and make instructions for the basic shape to share with the forum so I can see what everyone else wants to put into my universe . Quote
