SirScottLego Posted October 5, 2006 Posted October 5, 2006 Ahoy, I've been cleaning up my bookmarks and thought I would share a link I've used of others MOC's for inspiration... Obviously, not my work...but galleries and works that have inspired me. http://www.mocpages.com/directory.php/15 Quote
oo7 Posted October 5, 2006 Posted October 5, 2006 Those are some brilliant MOCs Sir Scott! And it looks like a bunch of them haven't been posted here before, you should make a thread for each of them. Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted October 5, 2006 Governor Posted October 5, 2006 Uhhhh... Many of these look familiar... They're in the forum... Somewhere... Quote
SirScottLego Posted October 5, 2006 Author Posted October 5, 2006 Mister Phes you are so right. I don't have the time to create individual threads or re find all the threads that some are posted in so I thought I'd just throw out the link for you to decide if it is worthy of the forum. Thanks for all you do! Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted October 6, 2006 Governor Posted October 6, 2006 I don't mind, Mr Oo7 has proved that not all users have seen (or remember) the MOCpage Pirate MOCs that have been posted here in the past. So how be we keep this thread as an overall discussion for MOCpage Pirate MOCs. Do we think there is a good selection? Quote
Captain Ironhook Posted October 8, 2006 Posted October 8, 2006 There are so many Moc upon this pages who is going to have the paitent to look through them all? As i have not the picees for making mocs i dont think these will give me any essences of inspiredness, but thank you scott for taking them time to share them with us. Quote
El Bucanero Posted October 8, 2006 Posted October 8, 2006 There are so many Moc upon this pages who is going to have the paitent to look through them all? Except for the space MOCs on those pages, I looked them all.... Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted October 8, 2006 Governor Posted October 8, 2006 Is there any you particularly liked Mr Tiber? What about "Pirate Docks " by by John Langrish? And folks, remember to support MOCpages by clicking on their advertisement links. Sure its annoying spending 10 seconds doing this but its 10 seconds well spent considering you're supporting a free service that may die without your support. Here's a tip. Right click on the link and depending on the browser select "Open in New Window" or "Open in New Tab" or "Open in Background Tab". This way the advertisement can't load into the browser window you want to view the MOCpage with. Quote
Scouty Posted October 8, 2006 Posted October 8, 2006 Also, with PC users, you can use the middle scroll to open a new tab, though I think this only for Firefox? Also, that MOC is very nice! Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted October 8, 2006 Governor Posted October 8, 2006 Middle scroll wheel? Mine only scrolls up and down, and if I click on it then it becomes zoom in or out. I assume that you'd need to set up the mouse to open new tabs in its configuration as each brand of mouse has a different default action for its scroll wheel. Also, that MOC is very nice! Anyway, what do you find particularly nice about this MOC, Imperial Scouts? Quote
El Bucanero Posted October 8, 2006 Posted October 8, 2006 Is there any you particularly liked Mr Tiber?What about "Pirate Docks " by by John Langrish? Ah yes one of my favorites, great details, and I like the use of SNOT for water. I was hopless in love with the ships of Stephen Rowe His page Specially on this one! Major isnpiration for the HMS Unpredictable were his MOCs, great builder. I am surprised there is no thread about the Scimitar yet. But I'll take care of that later ;-) Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted October 8, 2006 Governor Posted October 8, 2006 Ah yes one of my favorites, great details, and I like the use of SNOT for water. I must have been having a completely daft moment when I was looking at this picture because I looked and the water and thought it looked unsually smooth for LEGO. For some reason my mind didn't realise there was SNOT action taking place there! Quote
Scouty Posted October 15, 2006 Posted October 15, 2006 People also use the snot technique for roads as well, never saw on for water! From the question from Mr.Phes above: I particularly like the round part on the left, the sea wall, I presume. That railing is lovely as well *wub* Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted October 15, 2006 Governor Posted October 15, 2006 I like the way the SNOTs have a reflection, that's a nice touch you just don't get when having studded water. Quote
Scouty Posted October 16, 2006 Posted October 16, 2006 "Ow! This water is quite bumpy" Hehee :-D You could also use tiles if don't want to do snot techs. Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted October 16, 2006 Governor Posted October 16, 2006 Imperial Scouts, what do you mean by "tiles"? I thought SNOTs were another name for LEGO tiles, unless you meant some other kind of tile. Quote
El Bucanero Posted October 16, 2006 Posted October 16, 2006 SNOT stands for: Studs Not On Top... This looks like a wall of blue bricks lying on the ground... Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted October 16, 2006 Governor Posted October 16, 2006 For a change I did actually know SNOT stood for Studs Not On Top, but what I meant was isn't that what a tile is? Imperial Scouts seems to be suggesting that tiles is another method to achievet that smooth result, but I thought "SNOT" was just name another name for a tile. Quote
Scouty Posted October 16, 2006 Posted October 16, 2006 *sing* laaaaaah : that be a lego tile *pirate* Of course youd need a bunch of these. The bricks are particularly shiny because they are new and not scratched. Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted October 18, 2006 Governor Posted October 18, 2006 *sing* laaaaaah : that be a lego tile *pirate* That's what I thought you meant Imperial Scouts, but isn't that also what Mr Tiber is calling a SNOT? Quote
El Bucanero Posted October 18, 2006 Posted October 18, 2006 I think you can't have A SNOT, since it is a building technique, you may think that Studs Not On Top refers to a brick with no studs on the top, but it it isn't, here is an example of a snot technique: As you can see, the studs are NOT facing the top.
