Well, that is the design of the Comic Con Batmobile and I wanted to stay with that look. But you´re right of course that one could smooth it out quite a bit!

Hi!
In season 2 ep 4 The Mandalorian doesn´t really fly his ship straight all the time. The Child who has been eating cookies has an accident ! This is my small MOD of set 75318 - the episode pic:

Just a couple of days left, it´s dramatic !

Finally built this with effermans MOD 42111 Dom's Charger how it should be! Great MOD - good work!
Here´s two pictures with Homemaker Dom proudly at his ride :

Really good build, love the focus/out of focus setup!

This seem to be a great idea as it should have fit nicely into my train. In the end Erling bricks didn't work for me since I couldn't get bucket handle inside and there wasn't space below the brick. However Technic bricks was just a perfect fit.
Before - after:
Nice use of the bucket handle ! I like the Minifigure, Footgear Ice Skate part# 93555 also in a technic brick!

Slow building but I´ve started on the couplings while I wait for more Hose, Rigid 3mm D for the pantographs.

Thanks! Actually 29 studs but who’s counting ?
And thanks again Davide & Phil for the input. Due to the design of the windows even using cheaper 1x8 rail plates would look a bit strange compared to the close shave approach that I went for! I also got a good suggestion about using part 4175 plate modified 1x2 with ladder or 2412 tile modified 1x2 grille.

Well it would be doable and not as expensive as rail plates! But the effekt I would have liked is the offset structure of the surface, like with a rail plate or jumper plate. Your fine example gives a good view of each element that could possible be seen as structure but it wouldn’t differ much from the smoother parts of the side both in the front & back. But thanks for the idea!

3 hours ago, Man with a hat said:Oh my. This is big. Not really my style, but you did a great job.I just wondered if you considered trying to implement the corrugated metal sides? I know it would be tricky with the round windows though, the grilled bricks just get you so far...
Yes, I considered that. Sadly there is no grilled brick in orange. Other choices were like the picture below. My choice would have been the modified Plate with rail but it’s to rare. Doing with jumper plates is one option but that didin’t look good and there where stability issues. The snotted tiles were easier and could have covered some of the windows but in the end I went for smooth at this time. If the modified Plate with rail makes a comeback that’s a thing I will try.

Here you go:
Middle track section three out of five. The two golden spikes represent where the tracks laid out from the west and East met !

That´s a nice little train - well done!

Thanks! The track is actually already built, just for display purpose though. I´ll take a picture tomorrow and post it!

Hi there!
For a train competition on Swebrick, to be held and judged next weekend at our annual event which we now had to cancel due to the Corona virus, I wanted to build something. When the rules said that the scale was free I started to think about what train wheel from Lego could be the biggest. There really wasn´t any larger than for the usual sets & scale. So I then thought which other big wheel could be used - I found part 88517 Wheel 75mm D. x 17mm Motorcycle with part 88516 Tire 94.2mm D. x 22mm Motorcycle Racing Tread. That set that scale !
My choice of train was the SJ Class Rc electric locomotive - Rc electric locomotive. I choose the very first one in the series of 366 made for Sweden - number 1007. It´s now restored and can be seen in the Swedish Railway Museum in Gävle. I´m not quite finished yet but here´s some pictures:

I thought it would be time to make a Moc that sums up episode 1-9 in some way.
It turned out to be a tv-wall with all the posters, and one side bookshelf each for the good & the dark side. And then a throne to sit in and watch the movies!

Cool builds everyone, and thanks for posting even if there were no behemoth raffle this year!
Merry Xmas to all of you!

I can't wait to see everyone's builds!
Great start! Yeah, you need to get the yellow out of the white!
