lightningtiger Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 G'day everyone, just a quick little MOC today.....a realistic cement mixer (like the bucket is at an angle and can dump it's load) plus a realistic road worker in a hi vis shirt and work gloves too ! Here is the mixer behind the tanker truck. Examples ..... & Comments welcome and I'm a conformist! ! Quote
Mrlegoninja Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 Not that original... but its still pretty cool. Quote
lightningtiger Posted October 7, 2010 Author Posted October 7, 2010 Thanks for the reply 'Mrlegoninja' - did say realistic not original ! Tomorrow, I might design an air compressor with jack hammer. I'm a conformist! ! Quote
SilentMode Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 I like it, it's a very simple but effective design. I wonder if Lego would snatch the idea? Quote
lightningtiger Posted October 7, 2010 Author Posted October 7, 2010 Thank you 'SilentMode' for your kind comments, I wouldn't be surprised if they did use the idea, at least the bucket/drum is in the right position unlike the impulse one of a few years back - that was close but no cigar ! More workers comming, especially with a work truck too ! I'm a conformist! ! Quote
Fires-storm Posted October 7, 2010 Posted October 7, 2010 Well done on this, even if its simple its exactly right! Also, is it just me or do the two guys on the left in the photo kind of look like they want to take out the camera man? Well done with this little moc, and keep bricking! Quote
lightningtiger Posted October 7, 2010 Author Posted October 7, 2010 Thanks 'Fires-Storm' for your comments, yeah those guys are a little ticked off I think, they missed out on getting there Muppet avatar's ! I'm a conformist! ! Quote
XimenaPaulina Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 Nice and simple cement mixer, lightningtiger! Really looks accurate to the ref. pic. But what's up with these 'cement guys' posing like male celebrity models? & Quote
lightningtiger Posted October 8, 2010 Author Posted October 8, 2010 Thanks for the kind words 'KielDaMan', yeah I think those guys are waiting to be short listed for a Village People cover band. I'm a conformist! ! Quote
Big Cam Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 It may be simple, but you replicated what you wanted, so I'd say this is a win. Quote
Masked Builder Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 Not bad...I think that it's a great idea! Quote
lightningtiger Posted October 8, 2010 Author Posted October 8, 2010 Not bad...I think that it's a great idea! Thanks 'Masked Builder' for your comment, I'm planning that other vehicle still, plus more workers (dressed the same) and hopefully some new machinery too ! I'm a conformist! ! Quote
