Hi all! I've built a spaceship using the leftover parts from 10497 alt build 1. I call it the Galaxy Roadster. I was able to make the space ship along with a landing pad, landing beacon, and parking enforcement robot. More pics here if you're interested. Thanks! -
This is mine and a friends collaboration at a local LEGO convention. (Pirate themed of course) Let me know what you think!

Hi! Maybe some of you have discovered my DB 120 on BRICKS ON RAILS the other day. But there is more to come... Over the last years I made several attempts to design this iconic and outstanding loco which is from a technical perspective mother to all of the modern locos and even to the first ICE generation as well. Every time I dropped the process pretty early although the series 120 was my all time favourit loco in my childhood. All of those angles and slopes on the front gave me nightmares. What happend? New elements! With 37352 it suddenly came all together rather fast. As you can see my MOC can be powered by PF-L-motors and controlled by SBRICK or you can switch to PU-L-motors and PU-hub. But once I was pleased with the first renderings of my 120 the desire for wagons grew. First I came up with some regular Interregio- and Intercity-wagon. Sorry, but I am really poor when it comes to the vast variety of wagon types. Then I moved on to a control cab coach. By that point I was already fallen mad into a strong maniac episode which came to its end with some rolling stock in the famous TEE livery featuring a regular car and a restaurant! I hope you like the result of my latest project. All aboard, summer sneaks around the corner, holidays are in sight.

[MOC] Star Splitter: Classic Space Combiner/Transformer Spaceship Mech
danth posted a topic in LEGO Sci-Fi
All, This is a redesign of an entry I made for the recent Classic Space Era Spaceship contest. My goal was to build a spaceship that split into two smaller spaceships, both of which transformed into mechs. I was able to do it but I really rushed it at the end to meet the deadline! I didn't really love how it turned out. So I spent a couple months tweaking it and think I have something much better now. Here it is: The Star Splitter. The prototype was called the Ursa Craft, which split into Ursa Major and Ursa Minor. Basically Mama Bear and Baby Bear. The redesign features a tighter integration of both units, a totally redesigned airframe and new wing cannons for the larger Bomber unit, and a complete reworking of the smaller Fighter unit. Here is the larger rear ship, the Bomber Unit, in space ship and gerwalk modes: Here it is in mech/robot mode: Here is the smaller front ship, the Fighter Unit, in both modes: I tried to make this thing rock solid. Both bots are sturdy and hold a pose easily, and in space ship mode things generally snap into place pretty well. There are a few fiddly bits at the edges but nothing structurally unsound. Anyway, thanks for looking! -

Hi! Today I start my new project: Winter in the Raven's Wharf This will be my biggest MOC to date and there are quite a few topics to cover I plan to build a medieval port somewhere in the far north. I did surveys on YouTube and Instagram, I asked what season to choose... ...Winter won! The project will consist of several parts, the whole thing will be divided into several baseplates. The size of 60x150 studs is planned. On the waterfront, I will want to build a lot of buildings for residents, but also military ones. The main attraction, however, will be the large ship I'm already building There are several inspirations, I will definitely turn on the Witcher 3 game more than once to explore Novigrad and look for interesting ideas. The main ship will have about 1500 parts and I will definitely make a PDF instructions for it. I've already built a small boat for a fisherman, I'll probably build more of these. I'm going to need a lot of parts, especially for building water. Since I'm building winter, I'll want to use the new animals from the City Arctic series - I'll add some seals, but I'm tempted to add a killer whale as well. You can learn more about this project from my video, link below. I will be glad if you write what you think about this project, but also write your ideas what I can build here :) In the next episode I will definitely want to show the finished ship, I will have to make sails and instructions.

Hi all! I made this Galaxy Explorer Ground Base from the leftover parts in set 10497 after building the smallest One Man Space Ship alt build. This is the original: Here's mine: In addition to the command base & comm tower, there's a power station, small landing pad, some craters, a small speeder, and a rover. Command base: Comm tower: Power station: Landing pad and speeder: Rover (which I think is hilarious because the truck/storage bed is under the driver's seat): Anyway, I had a ton of fun building this. Thanks for looking!

The EF76 Nebulon-B Frigate has to be one of my favorite ships from the original trilogy. After rewatching the beautiful ending scene in Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back, I decided to take on the Midi-Scale challenge once again. This very compact model is made of 1,464 pieces and measures 48cm. With this design, I tried to maximize the density factor in the smallest, most convenient size possible. The Nebulon-B features a movie-accurate, fully asymmetrical design, from side panels to greebles and surface detail. It also includes cannons, sensors, an accurate and intricate bridge section, a streamlined water tank, and many small details seen on the original ship. Reproducing the various front assemblies, small buildings in the back and all the greebles around the engine section took lots of fine-tuning, mindful part choices, and fun gap-filling sessions to closely match the ILM prop model. The building process isn't too long nor complex: I once again went for a fully modular approach, and the reasonable part count makes it both a manageable and relatively affordable build. The EF76 comes with a wide built-in stand and can be moved around easily. It can even be grabbed and held by its long middle section which is made of a sturdy technic liftarm configuration. ► Instructions for the Nebulon-B are available at BrickVault! More pictures on my Flickr page.

Hello Lamborghini and Speed Champions fans, The Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 is a mid-engine sportscar produced by the Italian automotive manufacturer Lamborghini. In keeping with Lamborghini tradition, the Aventador is named after a Spanish fighting bull that fought in Zaragoza, Aragón, in 1993. The Aventador is the successor for the Murciélago and was made by hand in Sant'Agata Bolognese, Italy. Building instructions are available on the following links: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-149528/_TLG_/lamborghini-aventador-lp700-4 It is a studless build in the new, 8 studs wide Speed Champions style. I wanted to create a clean model which is as accurate as possible in this small scale. I prefer the brick built solutions to keep the flexibility of the used parts in further builds, and therefore only two types of stickers are used: simple black ones to cover the visible parts of the headlights in the front air intakes, and the Lamborghini logo. My intent was to keep the width-length-height ratio of the real car and this size makes it possible. The model contains lots of details: for example the emblematic headlights, the front and side air intakes, the side view mirrors and rear details with the wide exhaust etc... Maybe the most challenging one was the hood tilt and some half stud offsets in the inside structure. I tried to fill every unnecessary gaps and therefore some tricky build techniques are used. The two trans-clear headlight parts "Slope, Inverted 45 2 x 1" (part 3665) are very rare, it never released in a set, but is available on Bricklink in some webshops. Of course they can be replaced for example by white, black, light bluish gray or dark bluish gray versions. The parts 86996 and 42446 are also rare, but the picture 7 shows an alternate side view mirror solution. It is a very low build, and can roll well only on flat surfaces. It is more of a display model then a toy for small children. The model has space for two minifigures: one with small hair or helmet in the driver's seat and one either without hair or withour leg.

Hi everyone! This isn't technically a pirate ship, but I figure all the ship-appreciators in this forum will appreciate it at least as much, if not more, than the sci-fi/fantasy peeps. Hopefully a few of you will even be willing to support on Lego Ideas 🙏. Click to enlarge any of the images / view on Flickr Starboard View with Roc in flight Aft/Starboard View with Roc perching Grabbing a snack in the galley - lines are connecting ship's wheel to rudder Folding bunks and hair-care in the cabin Fore/Starboard View Fore/Port Underneath View Aft/Port View Fore/Port Closeup The Full Crew Complement Background This build is specifically inspired by the novel "Ilse Witch", the first in a trilogy (within a longer series) aptly entitled "The Voyage of the Jerle Shannara". Unlike many other fantasy series, it's set in a world which sees substantial technological and magical innovation over the course of 32 novels and thousands of years. At the time of the novel, The Jerle Shannara is the fastest and most advanced airship ever built. The airships of the Four Lands are solar-powered and require active thrust to stay aloft. The sails, called "light sheaths", absorb solar energy, which is channeled through special rigging, the "radian draws", into the parse tubes which house the diapson crystals. It is these crystals which store the solar energy and distribute it through the ship's thrusters. After spending quite a well doing research based on the descriptions in the novel, and being unsatisfied with any of the existing artwork I could find online, I settled on a design which is somewhere between a racing catamaran and a Baltimore Clipper, with just enough additional other-worldly flavor to match the books. Hope you enjoy! A few fun features to highlight: • The captain's cabin in the front of the ship has been converted into two smaller cabins with folding bunks to account for the unusual crew. Captain "Big Red" shares the port cabin with Prince Ahren Elessedil, and his sister, "Little Red", shares the starboard cabin with the seer, Ryer Ord Star. A privacy curtain separates the two cabins on the aft side of the mast, and sliding panels allow access to a shared washroom in the fore of the cabin. • A removable platform between the main hull and port pontoon provides landing space for the roc, Obsidian, and his rider, Hunter Predd, to roost between scouting flights. • Other crew members can wrap themselves in their cloaks and sleep in the pontoons. • The ship is armed with a complement of ballistae to defend against hostile airships, and the ramps may be lowered to send over a boarding party. • The galley occupies the center of the ship and features a long table where the crew can dine together, or study their maps and charts. • The storage room in the aft of the ship has fresh water, food, the armory, and spare parts to make repairs on the long voyage. • The rope ladder may be raised and lowered to take on supplies and passengers. • The ship's wheel in the pilot box really controls the thrusters on either side of the ship's rudder, and the capstan hauls up the dual anchors! • The masts are grippable so crew members can climb up into the rigging. • Obsidian's wings fold and unfold realistically to move between flying and roosting positions. Build consists of approximately 2700pcs, including 12 minifigures.

[MOC] Hancock Merchant Sloop and Morton Imperial Brigantine
CaptainDarkNStormy posted a topic in Pirate MOCs
I recently built two ships designed by Moc Your Bricks. They are the Hancock Merchant Sloop and the Morton Imperial Brigantine. I think they are fabulous designs and I really enjoyed building them. Creating the custom sails was a totally new step for me. I wanted to break down how I did it in case anyone was intimidated by something new (as I was at first.) Most of the builds were straightforward. You purchase the instructions from https://www.mocyourbricks.com/ and use their parts list to create a wanted list on Bricklink. Works the same way as any MOC off of Rebrickable. The more advanced stuff involves the sails and rigging. I bought a yard (this will make a lot of sails) of canvas from a local fabric store. I chose a light tan color and texture I thought would look good. The fist step in making the sails was printing out the sail files from Moc Your Bricks. A few other things you’ll need are string, fabric glue, a sponge brush, good scissors, and a hole punch. Then I cut them out, and traced that onto an old cereal box. You’ll want something thick and sturdy. Once you get all the sail templates onto the cardboard it’s time to trace them onto the canvas. Before cutting apply the fabric adhesive to prevent fraying. I basically traced the penciled lines with the glue then used the sponge brush to spread it. One it dried I flipped it over to do the other side. A few hours later they were dry and ready to cut! I used the original paper templates to get figure out placement for hole punching. Once you finish all the sails, MOC Your Bricks has a YouTube video for each ship that shows how to rig them. I find both of these ships to be simple yet pleasing to look at. They also offer something a little different from the standard Pirates/Bluecoats. I highly recommend adding them to your collection too! -
I was inspired by Alejandro Burdisio's artworks. I made this just for fun using parts that I rarely use. the base model was my old 7wide Henschel & Sohn CP0186 it was a 9V train and it didn't have enough room to be upgraded to another motorization solution. I'm not running 9V trains anymore, so I decided to change it to something strange just for fun. I believe this belongs more here than the Train Tech, correct me if I am wrong. :) I added some non-lego lights from a Fun Whole set that I received a few months ago

The Frisco 1522 loco is a 1926 oil burning 4-8-2 "Mountain" type, (4 leading, 8 drivers, 2 trailing) that was made surplus in 1951, donated to the Museum of Transportation (in St. Louis, Missouri) in 1959, and restored to working order in 1988 by the St. Louis Steam Train Association (SLSTA) for it's excursion career. It's new lease on life lasted until 2002 when rising insurance costs made the engine enter it's second retirement, which will be probably be forever. When the engine was running in it's second career, the SLSTA had four train cars in it's excursion support role. They carried parts, tools, merchandise to sell, and crew members not on duty. After re-retirement of the 1522, most of the cars were eventually sold to Milwaukee Road 261 organization and were renamed and repainted into a different paint scheme more suited to that group. This may not be the best interpretation of the Frisco 1522, but it seems to be the one of the few I've seen built out of Lego. The model you see here has been my dream ever since I was 5 or six years old and rode behind the steamer on one of it's last public trips. (I don't remember much of the trip, but I do remember the sense of awe and respect for the power of steam after seeing the loco pull past us on it's journey back to the museum and into what looks to be permanent retirement.) The cab walls on both model and real engine have the name of the railroad (Frisco) on it's side, while the number of the loco (1522) is on the tender sides. One half of this baggage car (named 'Black Gold' after a train the 1522 used to pull) housed tools, spare parts, lubricants and a fire hose or getting water for the loco, among many other things. The other half (usually closest to the engine) had the souvenir shop with shelves and tables for fundraising merchandise selling. The car is now repainted and named 'Golden Valley'. It has been used with Milwaukee Road 261. The 'Firefly' was the crew car. It was also named after a train the 1522 used to pull. The car has been sold to be used with Milwaukee Road 261. It sits in storage currently. The diner-lounge 'Chouteau Club' wasn't owned by the St. Louis Steam Train Association (SLSTA), but by a private individual who was a member of the club. It now is stored / owned by Illinois Transit Assembly in Madison, Illinois, sidelined by side sill rust. The 'Bluebonnet' was a business car and brought up the rear of the train. It was also named after a train the 1522 used to pull. The car has been sold to be used with Milwaukee Road 261. It has been renamed back to it's first name of 'Milwaukee' and repainted into the proper colors for that railroad. The real engine is publicly displayed at the Museum of Transportation in St. Louis, Missouri. The Lego model of the loco is sitting on the front of the loco, just above the cowcatcher. This official Frisco 1522 website gave me invaluable info and pictures of the excursion cars and the loco itself. This page in particular was very helpful in getting the window amount / spacing / 'look' of the excursion cars right. NOTE: Yes, I had a thread made in 2016 for the loco only. That thread was last updated in 2017, and I didn't want to mess with the moderators by bumping it. Thus, this new thread was created. I hope that was ok! EDIT: 9/23/23: Real world photos added! -
Here is my latest creation and a little lore that fed into the design. I made the speeder moc a while ago but just finished the base. I had a bunch of vibrant yellow 1x6 bricks and 1x12 plates along with Lime 1x2 curved slopes and plates from the PAB wall and set about using them here. So without further ado: In the dense atmosphere, pilots rely on instrumentation to avoid areas of high pressure which cause the crystallization of nitrogen and methane gas in the atmosphere. These 'gasbergs' have been the cause of many devastating collisions. The S21 features several innovations uniquely suited for use on the mining colony; a fully sealed body able to withstand the extreme pressures and highly caustic atmosphere of Saurus. Stabilizing piers with regular and inverted repulsers offer stability in turbulent gas currents needed to operate sensitive long-range sensors. The most unusual feature is the onboard nitrogen harvester. The nitrogen can be used to fuel the booster phase of the twin ion/combustion engines, allowing repeated orbital insertions without the need for refueling stations. When fired, the boosters ignite atmospheric xenon-nitrogen, producing distinctive green contrails.

One of the reasons I'm excited about the 2023 Hogwarts Express is that I hope it gets people into building steam locomotive MOCs. This happened for me by modifying it's predecessor, 75955 20230508_162151 by Sam Szeto, on Flickr I got two copies of 75955 cheap on eBay. My aim was to make the locmotive look more like a GWR Hall Class, whilst keeping it "LEGOish". I wanted it to be able to run on R40 tracks, with power functions. I also wanted to mainly use parts from the sets, with some from my own collection, and not have to Bricklink anything. This meant it had to be 6 wide, and use a similar boiler design. Also no custom wheels/rods/stickers. 20230508_162212 by Sam Szeto, on Flickr The original locmotive's proportions were rather tall and not long enough. I extended the boiler by 4 studs, and the firebox and the smokebox by 1 stud. I need to take a better photo, but I'm quite proud of the taper on the boiler. It extends by 1 plate, over 12 studs. The rear of the boiler is clipped to the firebox and the smokebox. The smokebox is not attached with studs to the running board, but on a Technic axle, so it can legally be a fraction of a stud off grid. I also added droid arms to create break rigging and sand pipes. 20230508_162243 by Sam Szeto, on Flickr 20230508_162447 by Sam Szeto, on Flickr 20230508_162508 by Sam Szeto, on Flickr The biggest challenge was getting the pony truck to go around R40 curves, and not interfere with the cylinders. This was an absolute headache - a lot of MOCs I've seen in recent years, are designed for wider curves, or they have the second set of pony wheels fixed, and only have one set of flanged drivers. I didn't want to do this so I created a pony truck with a sliding front axle. The pony truck can pivot to a fixed angle, than there are stoppers under the cylinder, which stop it moving any further. As the axle is free to move axially, it will un-centre itself to go around the bend. It works, but looks a bit strange, and is something I want to improve on the next version. 20230508_162221 by Sam Szeto, on Flickr Tender has all the PF components. Again for simplicity, I used the normal train motor guards (and mimicked the design around the front wheels), but I want to improve this in my next version. Also, for part reuse, I'm using the trap door from the original's tender to mount the train motor and thread the cable. 20230508_162629 by Sam Szeto, on Flickr 20230508_162711 by Sam Szeto, on Flickr The coach isn't meant to be a BR Mk1. I don't have any dark red parts, so I just decided to extend the official coach out to use a proper train base, whilst keeping the removable wall from the playset. I also have some older windows in my collection which were quite useful. If interested, their are more photos on my flickr. When I have the time, I'd like to do a full rebuild in 7 wide using custom wheels, with dark red Mk1s. But for now, I'm happy with this - I'm glad LEGO's play set was mis-proportioned as it inspired me to do this. Already working on a proper MOC now . References A lot of inspiration was taken from Phil B's incredible MOC/MOD @Phil B, particularly with the tapered boiler using the original set's design

In the course of December, I stumbled across the Flying Hamburger while reading Wikipedia every day. The railcar train is of course a perfect match for my streamlined locomotives: time and origin fits. However, there is only a remnant of the Flying Hamburger in Nuremberg DB museum and I prefer to build complete museum locomotives. Also, I was not happy with the look of the "Flying Hamburger" and the small, deep-drawn front windows. However, further research revealed that after the prototype, 13 railcar trains of the "Hamburg" type were built and also in regular service. These had a more beautiful front for me and are simply a classic. And one of them is completely preserved as a museum train in Leipzig's main station. Perfect ;-) The original is perfect in shape for a Lego conversion, so go for it ;-) Sure, I needed the one or other attempt in studio or with stones, but quite quickly I came to the feeling: yes, it works. An exciting topic was the transition between the two halves of the train. I wanted them as close together as possible. The solution was then a variation of an idea from @Hod Carrier. He had presented a kind of close coupling with trapeze and I adapted this principle to my place and size. There was still help in the Dr. Brick Forum from Mick. With the close coupling the two units can drive very close together through R104 curves / switches. But the limitation to R104 is in the boogies, the coupler could run smaller radii with a different design. The interior design was also exciting. I didn't want to use the Lego molding for a seat, since wing chairs were in use in the original. So I built myself wing chairs. Per seat only 14 parts.... ;-) Built are just over 2700 Lego parts Drive 2x Lego PU CityHUB 2x Lego PU train motor Light and stickers are self-made No foreign parts from other manufacturers used Working front and rear lights, automatically matching the direction of travel Interior lighting: Since I wanted a rigid fairing, the minimum curve radius is R104: Last weekend at the exhibition in Wörrstadt/Germany the SVT had the first opportunity for a real ride: Have fun watching!
