Hoexbroe Posted April 3, 2015 (edited) Hi all, When I originally made the MegaMOC 2014 Le Mans Series Racing diorama, I would have liked to do it with CLASSIC (1960-70) cars. But I simply didnt dare to do it; The cars seems extremely complex! But lately, other builders have turned out some pretty impressive classic racecars. Here´s some "tests" of mine, to see what could have been, had I dared to go down this route; First off, a Ford GT40, inspired a lot by GallardoLU´s do; Okay; so the car is held deliberatly in a single tone. Lovely racing colours and stickers are not done for this "what-if" builds... The car has taken quite some time to do, but -curiosly enough- the finished result does not use particulary complex constructions. Nothing illegal, and the car roll really well. One of the important point of a GT40, is it´s height; This car is a stunning 3 plates lower than f.x. my McLaren F1 GTR! (No, I doesnt fit a whole minifig...) Second up, I tried to cram M.Cara´s fantastic Prosche 917K down to 6(7) wide. Here is the result; Of course, no minifig can be seated here... Car rolls very well, and construction is not illegal, although highly unorthodox (I mean; just look at some of the pieces used...) The idea to use the white teeth, which curves exactly like a curved slope 1x4, comes from M.Cars´s car! (It´s the only place I´ve seen that used) Needless to remind you all, that a heavy set of Martini Racing stickers REALLY does this construction a huge favour!!! A last farewell photo of some of my latest cars together; Ciao! Edited April 3, 2015 by Hoexbroe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GallardoLU Posted April 4, 2015 Thanks for the shout out on the GT40, yours is very nice, i can see a good number of the same styling as mine but it's also very different and looks great! I might even have to copy the rear you built also the Porsche 917K looks really good, I am still trying to work out a way to build one myself so I'll likely use yours as inspiration. now the real trick will be getting a fig into that car somehow....
