Tazmaniac Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 My fist attempt at a brick built chopper/hog . I think they're too big. C & C welcome as always ! Chopper/Hog by Taz-Maniac, on Flickr Quote
Section8 Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 I don't think they're too big, but I've seen some ridiculous choppers. I think they look great! And I appreciate the reference in your topic title! Quote
Fuzzylegobricks Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 Great first choppers! They look good but the only thing I would say I think they're too big. is for is the wheels, but the other parts of your choppers are fine to me. Quote
JopieK Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 Fortunately for our friend Larry, he is not a pickle but a small cucumber ;) Very nice bikes!!! what is that golden part under the blue motorbike? They are perfect, not too big at all! Quote
Tazmaniac Posted April 13, 2011 Author Posted April 13, 2011 snip what is that golden part under the blue motorbike? snip It's the gun from series three alien Cheers for the comments guys Quote
lightningtiger Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 AWESOME 'Tazmaniac', just like something riding out of OCC ! Keep on singing 'Born to be wild' ! Quote
Tazmaniac Posted April 13, 2011 Author Posted April 13, 2011 I didn't use any refference pics but just checked out the OCC site and now I don't think they're too big Quote
XimenaPaulina Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 What a bad-a$$ pair of chopper bikes TM! I think the size is just about right and I really like the way you brickbuilt both with some pretty neat details (chrome shocks, diamond headlight, etc.). Very well done! Quote
Tazmaniac Posted April 13, 2011 Author Posted April 13, 2011 I've updated the top of the front forks so thhey're not so chunky....not that that's a bad thing but it's good to have options new pics tomorrow. I'm glad some one liked my title Quote
mobricki Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 I usually don't leave comments here in the town section but I had to with your choppers they are awesome and I like your creative use of certain pieces. Quote
Admiral Croissant Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 I think they look excellent. I like the colours, and just like the rest I don't think they're too big. The diamond for the light is also clever even though it's perhaps too much pointed towards the sky instead of the road. But that's perhaps hard to fix. I also like the one with the all-grey parts at the front wheel more than the one with the silver parts. I guess that's just personal taste. Well done Quote
henryhotspurs Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 Neat! Great parts usage! Are the two bikers looking for trouble? They look like they could give a Lego police force a run for their money! Quote
JopieK Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 It's the gun from series three alien Cheers for the comments guys Too many minifigs, I must have lost the count Quote
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 This is an oustanding creation! I like that bike technique! The snakes are pretty cool! Quote
Big Cam Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 They may be a tad big by minifig standards, but I think they look awesome, so screw the size. I often see things that are not perfect minifig size, but usually it doesn't make much of a difference as long as it looks good, and these look good. Quote
gotoAndLego Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 I think they look good. you should try make some Miniland scale people to match them. Quote
MetroiD Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 Nice hogs; you've captured the shape perfectly! Since you're reworking the front forks anyway, have you considered trying to aim the headlights down a bit? I know that OCC choppers really have very little to do with practicality, but still...

Tazmaniac Posted April 13, 2011 Author Posted April 13, 2011 (edited) Cheers for the comments guys Yeah the head light has been bothering me too I think I can get it better... we'll see. Just checked out your bikes MetroiD they're so cool ! Edited April 14, 2011 by TazManiac Quote
LEGO Guy Bri Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 Awesome choppers 'Tazmaniac' Has me right back at "GTA:RThe Lost and the Damned"... in Lego.... Great job, these are awesome bikes! Quote
