in house designers i have to assume as they became sets and lines. I am mainly talking conceptual but an actual design in one case, however not to delve into that this thread is getting broad enough. Just saying it happens from both sides.
-
I went through a period where ther lego designers were obviously ripping off my very own concepts (not designs) and that was the start of my backing off loyalty, that said I have also had clone builders rip off my actual design so.... guess I'm all even in their game.

First laugh i had in this forum...well done Sir.

If to all be in one place then as I suggested before we could repurpose the [MOC] that we use in a title to [MOC] or [SET] or even make that a field that needs to be completed on creating a topic
-
This really seams like the only sensible starting point, it allows opening up the discussions about other brands without putting the hens in with the rooster. When discussing MOCS links can be shared between sections if needed to facilitate cross conversational ideas however I dont see that being widely used. It's just that we 'can' and also it will lift the bans on certain words and phrases across the board which will be the actual integration of the concept. For example if I design a lego plane and somewhere in the conversation someone mentions (and links to) a particular cockpit not available by TLG that may better suit then that can be done however people understand that my original post is based on the lego pallette of bricks and should they want to , be able to build said plane using their available parts at home. I know its all muddier than that but in embryo ...

Well my brain is not big enough to comprehend the complexity of any of the choices but my two cents worth would be a separation between talking about 'sets' and 'mocs' where brands have there own subs in the 'sets' section. People adapt the [MOC] marker that we use, or we make that a field so its compulsory, where [MOC] becomes the [BRAND] when talking about sets I'd hate to see a solution that means each brand has a sci fi or train section as it doesnt matter what bricks are used in the build which also then becomes a part of the discussion Most of my builds have been made with third part parts simply so I can afford it however I stick to the bricklink studio pallette with very few exeptions in colour for my personal builds.

This is not a bad thing in my eyes as TLG moves furter into the swill of merch and oversaturated production volumes, We all enjoy chatting about up and coming sets but mostly we are here to show and chat about our own builds in the old 'non collectable' version of the product produced. As I see by the poll the staff are poised to venture down new paths and I support that movement entirely.

what would be cool is to have company writing or symbol on the roof like on some regional airports, oh and the grass would die...

lol I was just pleased to see a new user who bothered to create an avatar but that seals it...welcome aboard!

Strong work! Three very nice wagons, the level of detail is impressive indeed. Coming from a region that generated power at the time I often saw transformers on wagons and truck trailers so that really took me back.
-
I just love this, its a beautiful little building and a nice sense of calm about the scene. Do you have a display for your builds, you must have quite a few still built up or are they all in those shoe boxes...
-
I'm so glad I read all that just because you wrote all that...lol If i need chem imma knocking on you!
-
....they're thinking... lol nice little ride, sorry cant help with any info but boy you sure are in a productive mode atm.

@Shivaexactly!

Congratulations, awesome builds.
-
most definately, it's what I consider true minifig proportions rather than scale. most people wont see this type of request unless it's in a suitable forum topic...
-
Wonderful restrained details on this, just exactly what is needed to depict the different forms right down to the tree. It actually gives this model a very graphic feel about it. Thankfully that cannonball isnt going anywhere in that puny barrel so your build is safe...for now.

Is the first link to a lego version, I am confused... The instructions in the second link are very cool. We sure have come a long way with design opportunities. -
If it's just for fun then this is great, if it is for display then a border around the base would be a nice addition or even learning to do some more unconventional shaping to add interest. eg You may also look up a more fitting place to post this in topics so you get a better amount of views.
-
This one is much, much better though it's a shame you cant get that bulge down the length of the centre. Is the colour used Dk Green?
-
I would gladly tag along for the ride
-
Came to the right place then...Welcome.
-
Imports very cleanly and it looks great, thanks!
-
Ooo shiny! I need to make an Aussie version sometime but mine will probably end up as a playground piece at an exibition park.
-
This is a great little design, you captured the essensial qualities without going overboard as I often do lol. I don't think motors are essential for a streetcar in fact pushing it between a layouts limited stops would actually count as a 'Play Feature' Please learn studio, LDD grabs hurt my eyes... May I play with the digi file?
