[LDD MOC] Small Dieselpunk Turret

[tchuk-norst]

Alrighty, I'm starting a large scale Dieselpunk mech but I first need some good turrets for the top. I scoured the Internet but there's really nothing that was piquing my interest. So, I started LDD and this is what I came up with!

Obviously it needs a lot of work. I'm showing it mostly to get some good ideas from you guys.

If you've got any comments and/or constructive criticism, I desperately need it.

Thanks!

Needs more brown. maybe a smokestack or two.

One thing I'd always advise with LDD is to turn on the option to outline individual pieces. It helps to give the model better definition and stops it looking so flat.

I didn't know you could do that, where is it?

I'm not sure, the full build will have many smokestacks/ I suppose I could add more brown but I want to keep it pretty uniformly dark gray.

Actually, if it's a dieselpunk, I'd say don't add too much brown. Unless that's the color scheme you're going for, I guess...anyways, I'd say just stick with dark grey, unless you want a "paint job".

Just go into preferences in the edit menu. As an example of a screenshot with this option turned on:

A nice little MOC.

A nice little MOC.

But would it look good up on top of a large quadruped mech?

Definitely!
