  1. My question is about a specific part but could be considered in general. According to Bricklink, part 2626 (Stem Brick 6 x 6) was released in light grey before 2002 but never in light bluish grey, and light grey does not exist anymore in new sets. If I want to use it and I already run out the 5 tolerated wrong comboes what should I do? 1) Use it in light bluish grey because when Lego re-releases old sets they will use light bluish grey (it already happened) 2) Use it in light grey but so I have to change all grey parts for obvious aesthetical reasons. 3) Do not use it or sacrifice another combo. Thanks for your attention.
  2. I am mostly active in the Section about Official Sets made with digital tools; someway Lego sets are historical too. And the 3d virtual models are really amazing. Oh, I forgot: welcome to the Eurobricks!
  3. Karl Benz and Gottlieb Daimler meet and greet in front of their vehicles.

  5. Nice build. Thanks for sharing the lxf.
  6. Historical Vehicles Entry #4: Benz Patent Motorwagen "Velociped" Released in 1885, patented in 1886, it was the first vehicle powered by an internal-combustion engine. I propose some rendered pictures of a LDD model, with different colours and building solutions. Any feedback is more than welcome.
  7. Entry #3: Fardier à vapeur (Steam Drain), made by Joseph Nicolas Cugnot in 1771. As far as I know, it is the first self-moving vehicle ever. A reproduction in scale
  8. Beautiful car. I downloaded the picture because it is quite challenging to build in virtual Lego. There seem to be several "Locomobiles" or "Lokomobiles" in technology museums. They were used as vehicles, tractors, train or industrial locomotives. I am seaching for the ones that may look more credible in a mini-scale Lego build. I have submitted a few on Lego Ideas but also want to show them here.
  9. Another historical vehicle: Orsi "High-pressure Locomobile", 1906, steam-powered tractor. picture from: trattoridepocapiacentini.it/orsi%20la%20storia%20le%20macchine.pdf
  10. I was searching for them so hard in the net so finally I decided to build them by myself. As far as I can.
  11. 8854 - Power Crane (model B) - Technic 8854_b.mpd Flexible hoses have been made in SR3Dbuilder and "exported as .DAT" so they can be visible in ldiew. The model steering system is based on a central joint; subparts can be rotated to steer the vehicle but that will cause discountinuity in some flexible parts.
  12. 8835 - Tractor (Model B) - Technic 8835_b.mpd
  13. Useful or not, here is my wished list of parts that were used in old Technic sets: 4261 Technic Steering Arm 32195 Technic Suspension Arm 4263 Technic Plate 1 x 4 with Holes 4262 Technic Plate 1 x 6 with Holes 4442 Technic Plate 1 x 8 with Holes 2719 Technic Plate 1 x 10 with Holes
  14. If I saw this 10 days ago, maybe I would not post my "Mini Historical Vehicles" theme on Lego Ideas...

  17. Well I hadn't noticed the jubilee event - that could be emphasized on the set's box ... the story is very interesting and controverted, because a 3-wheel "Velociped" was made by Karl Benz few months before Daimer's. So which one is to be awarded as the first car ever? I tried a virtual build of the Velociped too but the outcome was not so good. I am glad to support your projcts!
  18. The sets: 462 889 891 6801 6822 6823 6874 have been updated to LDD 4.3.9. thanks to the Classic Space Torso decoration which is now available.
  19. Daimler's Motorkutske and other historical vehicles. Hallo everybody. I introduce a MOC which is freely inspired by the first motorized 4-wheel car made in 1886 by the German engineer Gottlieb Daimler. I just used parts in the standard LDD brickset, so it should be possible to build the model for real. I hope I can post some nice photoes as soon as I buy the bricks. In my opinion, the building style is quite similar to "Hobby Sets" released by Lego in the Seventies, on a smaller scale. Picture from Wikipedia If you like this models and the ones in the following posts, please support my projects in Lego Ideas!
  20. It is great to have the Classic Space Torso decoration; I already have udated the models I posted long time ago.
