  1. seems really good, i cant wait to see it with the body, it looks very promising.
  2. A new truck, i made prime mower truck, (mostly) based on the Tractomas: it features: towing hitches, one in the front and 2 in the back, 8 wheels (it is 8x8 in real life), a cab and some kind of engine (not very detailed), a heavy duty trailer and also, pendular working suspension on all wheels: LXF: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/imanolB/Trucks/tractomas.lxf I hope you like it.
  3. I think the tall chasis has more advantages, because, it has the portal hubs, so there is less stress on more of the drivetrain pieces, it also has a larger and better suspension, but the low chassis is more robust and compact, but it may get more damage on the drivetrain, however, it all depends of the body, if it is too tall or heavy, the tall suspension will have some problems with stability, in that case the low chassis is better, but im thinking, what if you take the low chassis structure (that could also be studless) and put portal hubs and planetary rims, this would solve the problem of the stress on the parts, but you would still have the robust and compact chassis and enough stability for a big-heavy body, however, both chassis look very nice.
  4. That is a very clever use of parts, the bed with the grilles is very nice and seems very functional.
  5. Some time ago i saw a cleaning truck, and it was very big and full of tools and machinery, and this truck is exactly the same, it has a very clean and compact design well done, i cant wait to see more of these trucks.
  6. Well, i must say that this is a whole new level of awesomeness, its pretty amazing how good the chassis looks, and now it is 8x8, so its even better, i really want to see it running, nice work again.
  7. Hi, those vehicles are very amazing, the trucks and the tank are very nice an seem very functional, it would be nice if you upload some more pictures to see more of these vehicles, but so far, they seem very good, nice work.
  8. Hi, maybe you could consider to put smaller diameter cylinders if that will be the air pump you gonna use, because those cylinders need too much time to move with those small pumps, also, you could try to make a switchless engine, so you could get a little bit more force in your train, here is a motor i saw some time ago: Good luck.
  9. Nice trucks, i love the scale and the details, the off road vehicles are very nice, i think they would be even better with working suspension, the snorkel truck its really impressive, its huge, i think you made an excellent work here, i hope you build more amazing models like these.
  10. Hi, nice work, i really like your model, the scale is nice, the details are amazing, and i love the functions and the attechments, it seems very robust and powerful, i surely gonna vote for it, good luck, and welcome to Eurobricks.
  11. Hi, nice creation, i love it, the functions are really great, the details are fantastic and the scale its really good, i think you made an excellent work, keep building things like this.
  12. Hi, i think you made a very impressive work, i love the details of the vehicles, specially the mobile home, it seems very nice, Good work.
  13. I think that maybe the best choice would be the rally car, because it would have more functional elements than the other ones (larger shock absorbers, maybe 4WD elements...), and also it wouldnt be just another normal car, and who knows, it would be great if it has some stickers of real life sponsors (not that lot of the picture, but maybe a few).
  14. The arocs looks very fantastic, i would love to see it built in real life, maybe when you get all the pieces, the details and the functions are very nice, and that suv too, i really like it, nice work ZBLJ.
  15. yeah, that is the sad thing about digital desings, that you cant make certain buildings like in real life, i hope you can finnish your truck in LDD.
  16. You are right, i cant connect those pieces too, i found that is because that piece has those 3 pin holes at the front and it doesnt fit in the ball joint, the same happens when you put a cross block, but it doesnt happen to the liftarms, i think that is because the ball joint has a little edge between the frame and the ball, look it from one side and you will see.
  17. I think the wheels sliding is enough for the standard curves: The new cab: and about the U-joints, im thinking to change them for cv joints. EDIT: Another solution for the wheels sliding, forget the wheels: Also, another change on the bogies front:
  18. New update, some improvements on the cab: The working doors: Also, i know that the U-joints are very likely to fail, but i think they are better than gears because there is less friction and i dont need to relocate all the motors.
  19. It would be great if LEGO starts to design more "futuristic-looking" sets, something like an spider crane, a swing loader, an scraper, and maybe those concept volvo machines, like the centaur or the gryphin, these two would be very nice with the pneumatics V2. image 1 image 2
  20. if this is for me: 1) This machine is real, it is designed to have a light capacity forklift, able to be transported and ready to be used. 2) If this should be a set for kids, you would only need to make it at mini.scale, just like the 42035 or 42023, beacuse its engineering its very easy, a basic truck frame and a basic forklift behind.
  21. Thanks THERIZE. i have taken closer pics for the bogies and the drivetrain:
  22. Hello all, im not a very experienced train builder, but since i saw the movie "Unstoppable", i got inspiration to build trains, so, i made my own version of the 777 train of the movie in LDD, which if im not wrong its a BNSF GE C44-9W, so here it goes: Im not very talented for the aesthetics, thats why it is a bit ugly, it was supposed to have a yellow stripe on the sides, but i think it would look much better with stickers, however, i will see if i can make of bricks. I decided to make it 8 wide, to have more space for details and to make it more scale-realistic. The propulsion system its done by one battery box, one sbrick and 2 XL motors for each locomotive: And this is how it steers (it still can steer to take the normal curves) I hope you like it, i will try to post more pics of the working parts. Thanks.
  23. What about if you put something inside the balls hole, like a piece of paper or something to tighten them to the axles, and also, have you tried to put one BB for each motor?, of course, if you have enough BBs.
  24. So sad that this is happening, i think you could try to put some springs inside the driveshafts to pull the balls and avoid the sliding off; but despite that, it seems very nice.
