My LDD Sloop

Recommended Posts

I got Half way through the Making and realised that I would see the Unicorn to...Oh well it gives a scale.

I base the sloop upon the one in the comic:

(Could we have closer Pictures, mabye a review)

Well here it is:

(The little bit by the side of the unicorn is some spares I need)

It took me around a Hour and a Half to Think, plan and create. I know the time since I was wacthing the Whole of SpaceBalls *y*

You've done quite a nice job there Joey! *y*

Way better then what i can do with LDD that's for sure.

The ship in the comic is however not a sloop, but a Xebec.

I will post pictures somewhere late this week for you to observe. ;-)

Keep it up mate! :-)

I used my own technique to slant the sails since LDD doesnt have the flap things 4276.png

I think you should build it for real! Are you going to do so, or will this only be a LDD design?

I'm not familiar with LDD so could you tell me what Online mode is?

Online mode allows you to price the creation, order online what you have made and create the packet your creation will come in. It is very cool. I am yet to check prices compared to brick link but it could be another way of ordering in bolk the pieces you need... come to think of it, it could help the shortage of your normal blocks... im just not sure on poastage costs... and as for minifigs, we can nearly forget it they have very limited range...

i dont think i left out any functions

oh but ldd does also have an explode your creation, something rather amusing, watch it explode into indvidual bits then reform infront of your eyes. (not part of online just a feature)

Thats just the LDD Download link

Ive already got it downloaded. I need to change to Online mode.

Edit: Anyone know how we could sorta, get a folder shared on some site so I could transfer the Creation to someones LDD that works?

I haven't checked out LEGO Digital Designer in years now but last time I did mini-figures weren't even an option.

Nonetheless I think it's a great concept but too limited in it's current form for my liking.

Yes it definitely fails in comparison to MLCad... i am in love with it, although as some have said it is hard to know if they have "clicked" into place. Once i get this annoying Law Assignment out of the way i will have a good play around and post my findings...
