One could;t say better! in a way they could have put the outriggers in the same position of normal foldable cranes keeping the manual funcitons. But again the 42043 it's full/plenty of funtions/features....let's appreciate them! P.S. about outriggers it's a shame we don't have anymore the old pneumatics with the square base otherwise a full pneumatic model would have been another way to make them! Mine will have only pneumatics!

BMW i8 Spyder

Sheep I do appreciate your models (and the quality/design of them) but this time I think you could have made it bit better! Nontheless a stunning model! My concern regards the front...doesn't look at all as an I8.... great video! -

Try to overexpose it a bit, trying to find the right balance. -
Magazine Article about me, LEGO Technic and Mental Health
TheItalianBrick replied to Paul B Technic's topic in Community
I'll try to be a good father, and to try includes to keep all my LEGO collection in the coming years so my kids will play with them. Great article Paul. I really enjoyed reading it! I have to say (for a sort of personal experience) I found that playing with LEGO during my childhood was a way to "build" a wall around me and isolate myself from the rest of the world. Think about the movie "a beautiful mind".... -
Bigger and better than 8043?? LOL they are 2 completely different things......although you can't even compare them I would say that 8043 it's way better! A tall boom doesn't mean "bigger" to me...

With a 24mm wouldn't be better to have a lower f/? Maybe f/2.8 and higher shutter speed? -
All these polish people visiting Italy every year....isn't that an "invasion"? Sorry for the OT! (JIM will kill me ) I have to say that I'm excited about this set, but even more about the new pneumatics and all the ways we could use them to improve our new mocs and old ones aswell!!

Hope it's welcome! -
He definitely captured it perfectly.....unfortunately they look ugly in reality!! But hey, just my opinion! The rest of the truck it's amazing!

First: looks very well executed! Be happy and satisfied really! In my opinion the cabin looks "ugly", I do prefer european trucks, but I'm ok with American style ones if done nicely. The rear axle has an unusual setup, but nothing wrong with it if you are happy with!! What I find outstanding is the video quality!! Simply impressive! I would love to be able to do same quality videos!!! As conclusion be proud of this MOC and I really like it a lot!!
