What program do you use ? -
The rules say that bandits can't use black as a main color, but can we use black armor? Armor is often black so this is a point of confusion.

So I've challenged myself to build a 2x2x2 speed cube or Rubik's cube. It will mainly be mainly bricks so my question is, is this the appropriate forum to post such a build? -
Both of you just calm down, let's keep it friendly. Let's just all follow the rules and ask if we have questions. I was wondering if we could add a poll to see how many people will be an enforcer and bandit? Counting topics is not the best because people might want to keep their project secret or haven't started.

I am currently building a flywheel accumulator hybrid system. So my question is, has anyone ever built a type of flywheel accumulator system before? For those who don't know what a flywheel accumulator system is, just read this Wikipedia page:https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flywheel_energy_storage -

[TC7] Ultuk

A rather large update: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Epic-Technic/TC7/img_20150617_49817.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Epic-Technic/TC7/img_20150617_59320.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Epic-Technic/TC7/img_20150617_23826.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Epic-Technic/TC7/img_20150617_39871.jpg Sorry for the low quality pics, but they were quickly taken. They are not embedded as I am on a mobile device. The rear shocks have been changed to the harder ones. I still need to do the back and the sides. Then the battle mode stuff shall start to be built. -
I was wondering if we could use a MiniZip styled connector so a 9v battery could be used as a battery box. Buggy motor problems :(

With only 10 more days to build and film (i'm going on a long vacation) I think that its time to start building the beast. I might not be able as I have exams till Wednesday and I need to box up the house because we will be moving soon. Introducing the Ultuk or Ultimate Tuk Tuk. I sort of wanted to name it F*** Tuk but that was... It will uses a servo for the steering. More beast mode features will appear, I just need to think of them.

I am currently building my little mean machine however I was a bit confused. Does it have to change from one type of vehicle to the other or can it just have heavily modified body work?

Could a moderator please change the prefix in the title to [O-I06]

Thanks for all the compliments!

Location: I06 - Yetornius Tags: Spaceship, exploration, vehicle Here is Lord Marc's first build for lord business (the mighty Octan corp.). It is a micro/mini spaceship that is flying over Yetornius. One of my first few renders so I am learning how to use POV-Ray. Day: 60 Crew: Lord Marc (captain, pilot), Sarraid (co-pilot, assistant) Log: "After almost two months of flying at over mach 50 we finally can slow down. It was a steady entry into Yetornius' very thin atmosphere (500 m thick). However, what might seem like a safe entry was very much not so. High amounts of friction with a superheated gas and a scorching hot planet warmed the belly of our ship to well over 750 million°K. Luckily we had our spacecraft coated with some special paint so our crazy expensive baby was fine. Our food supply is plentiful and so is our water. We are currently only 20 000 km away from our explorers. Only an hour or two more till we land. The landscape is, well, ugly, dull and gloomy. The heat from the lava lets us use less power because we start to hover from the rising air." Speeding by a small hill like thing on Yetornius. So, what do you think of it? (constructive criticism is also appreciated)

I was just wondering when this game might end as I would really like to start building much more; however, I am currently busy and moving houses soon.

Phew, you saved me!

What is the deadline for uploading my MOC for this week? Or is it too late?
-
Due to my current use of bricks, I don't have many at my disposal, so I am going to render a model from ldd but that will have to wait for next week. So my question is should I post a small aircraft for this week so I get some gold or just to put that to the side?
