Thanks! :D

OH MY GOD. THIS IS HUGE!!! So impressive! And the details! Everything is so carefully designed and assembled, I cannot imagine how much time was placed in this!
-
Thanks :D and XD you are right, maybe when the Avengers come, nothing much will be left :P and I can't believe why you guess it right, because I am building something for the Avengers series now! :P
-
Thanks to all of you! :D That's a bank, the Lego Bank of the Golden Scorpio :P You can have a look at the details of it here in another thread: http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=81526 :D

Thanks :) Same here too, that 6-to-8 part really bugs me, but I like the idea to have the racing car and a truck, and so I research and worked on this idea, and further elaborated it :) Glad it turned out well and that you guys like it!
-
Thanks! :D that's really news to me :P but how can an R18 run on the street?
-
Thanks thanks :) I want to make the car even lower, but the minifigure cannot really fit in as he is lying down already and the steering wheel cannot find any space to get it. Also, the mudguard piece also prevents the window from lowering (I cannot push it one stud to the back as the car actually has its seat very close to the front wheels). I will see what I can do later to improve it, and I welcome any suggestion :D Thanks to Ghost Racer but it will be more constructive if you have some concrete advice :)

Thanks thanks :D lightningtiger, the tail light is embedded in the bumper, the bottom line of the back :P there is also one under the spoiler! :D guess the opponents will see it clearly, or may not as the R18 dashes in the speed of light, haha!

Wonderful! Each car has its own style and detailing, and they are just adorable...very good! I think Superman will win, but I am not sure if his body goes cross the finishing line first, or his car XD
-
That's a nice creation, very cartoonish with a sense of humor. I like the little bird at the top! Very clever assemble!

Double Feature Review Part II: 75025 Jedi Defender-class Cruiser
niteangel replied to BrickBob Studpants's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Wonderful review! Seriously, I am not that into the Star Wars (only got 6 planes so far since the first set was released), but this one just caught my eyes. I was like...holy, I must get this, when I saw the first online image. Now, the more I look at your review, the more I think I will get this. The ship is truly amazing probably because it is quite detailed and quite accurate to the original. Like you said, it has the SW feel to it. Okay, I am done. I am heading to the store (but the owner said the set would only come in two weeks; I am from Hong Kong)... Thanks! Beautiful pictures too! -
Very beautifully designed and executed! I am amazed by the interior because I really didn't think of such intense furnishing inside from the appearance of the buildings. Wonderful!

niteangel replied to niteangel's topic in LEGO Town
Thanks thanks! :D Suddenly I think that this bank provides a lot of good plots for some superheroes clips / stories in this brick city XD haha! For those who are curious, the empty piece of land next to this bank will have another building, a little restaurant! -
MOC Modular Building - LBGS (Lego Bank of the Golden Scorpion)
niteangel replied to niteangel's topic in LEGO Town
Thanks to you all! :D You guys really encourage me to do more ;) Thanks Andy. Do you mean the BURPs on the dump truck? Since I only use half of the base plate, the other side is now just a construction site, without anything yet. A dump truck (working on this project, haha) just parked there with some rocks in it, so yeah... And do you mean point 4? Sure! Feel free to use the idea! :D Thanks again! -
MOC Modular Building - LBGS (Lego Bank of the Golden Scorpion)

Haha, if you look carefully, that's not the Ninjago one. I transformed it and made it a city crane, with all the mechanisms that a real crane has. :) -
While some people build their brick cities with more and more cars and planes, I always want mine to be more than that. It should evolve with new technology. I bought the set 7686 for some parts, but what was left was for something more intriguing. I always have the idea to make a more futuristic plane. C'mon, with Tony Stark in my city, I guess the city can benefit from his technology! Haha, so I recreated the "chopper", and embrace the future with a new design! I did some sketches first, all based on the plane Orca in C&C computer game. So the team reassembled! The orange rescue and repair team now includes the standard flatbed truck 60017, and on the right it is my another MOC Wheel-lift Wrecker, and this time we are to see the middle truck, the Orca Carrier and its plane! I imagine that this technology is just new, and in later years when the world war breaks out again in the C&C era (like 2050-21XX I guess), the Orca is transformed to an attack fighter. Anyway, that means this little plane is a precedent to the Orca fighter! The truck, while carrying the plane and transporting it, also provides tools and supply for maintaining the plane. Hey man, time for a little flight test! Two full throttle engines make this plane fly better than a chopper, probably! Overview of the plane... The tail...you can also see the engines now move to horizontal position, which is a flying mode. There is a landing gear at the tail that can be folded up. The two floodlights are perfect for search and rescue work! The truck also has an outdoor-use radar and computer system, that helps the pilot to locate himself on the plane during rescue missions. Did you see the little + hole in the middle of the plane? That is where the "tool clips" are installed for different missions. I will show you more later here how that works!

Nice yellow color, and I am actually more interested in the special bike color! :P I wanna have that bike!
-
Thanks thanks :D It is not really C&C MOCs, but some C&C vehicles definitely provide great inspiration for my next creation!
-
Thanks to all of you for the support :D Well, yes, a little bit :P I guess our brick city needs some advancement too, right? :P Yes, I did! Though I am more into Starcraft II now, haha...

Now that explains why the Killer Croc story was so...eehhh.... Good plot! And I love the details of each story! Keep it up!

Some of you may have seen my Avengers Truck, and so I will make a little post about this MOC which was made quite some time ago :) Seeing the whole set of Avengers vehicles from Lego having only a plane (Quinjet) and a jeep (and now Nick Fury's car which I turned it into dark blue color to join the original color scheme), I feel it needs something a little more solid to complete the line. So I had the idea of a mobile command center, a truck. And it is coming! The truck built is actually quite easy, borrowing all the techniques you may have seen in different "great vehicles" from Lego City line. The back is built like in 7733 set. You may notice that the built of the truck head is different because of the height of the doors. I took them from the original Avengers jeep, and so the doors cannot be fitted in under the windshield normally. I therefore reverse the construction to make it work. The tail is a little different. I feel that the back bumper area of many Lego trucks are not well done. After many experiments I came with this 7-stud wide approach, giving it more solid protection and a more sturdy feel to the truck. Inside we have a a little command center with computers, and a gun rack at the back. No idea why Tony Stark always occupies that space for his suit transfer, but that can be the second use of the truck. (note the foot stand for Iron Man, the pointed piece indicates Mark VI suit which has triangle core at the chest; the other one is for Mark VII) The gun rack can actually be taken out (a little different you see here from above because recently I modified it :) the picture above is more recent). One can change the rack for different arrangements and types of guns as long as the width and height is maintained to be kept in the truck. I also modified the jeep as you see, because the original is just harmless! Now, the firepower is back for the Avengers! Hope you guys like my set!

I have the previous blue cement mixer 7990, and I like it very much. Then now Lego redoes it and releases a new yellow one! Since I don't have unlimited space and I don't need another one, I think maybe it is a good idea to modify the old car to the new style! That will as well let me learn some new techniques from the instruction book :D So there you go :D I haven't got the pair of car doors yet and so I just use what the original provides. You may notice that I have one stud longer for the head of the truck. I think the original yellow build is too short, and so I extend it on the side without interfering the mixer connection behind it. The middle part linking to the base of the mixer is interesting. For the back part, I use another method to build a non-one-piece deflector or guide or what's-its-name thing :) Turns out it still works! Anyone has done a mod on the cement mixer yet? :) Thanks for watching!

Oh god, this is a huge creation! I love all the details like the little basement for the rat and the train interior! Just awesome and I am speechless! Now you inspire me to work on my own train!

I love this twist, a combo of City set and Superhero set! It is really nicely mixed, and I love the details in your setup too! Keep it up!
