  1. The first Car is the Ronnel Catnip.It`s actually just a slightly modified Badge engineered Car once made by Chris Elliot The second crazy 3 Wheeler is a late 1970s Ronnel Bean Bug.Modern Style, fast and quirky on the Road: I hope you like my newest Creations. Comments are welcome
  2. I love getting Inspirations from Styles like Retro Futurism and Dieselpunk. A few Days ago i saw thedrawing of a 1950s light Truck Cabin with a long loading Bed,equipped with hovering Tech. Well,to be honest,i was too lazy to figure out how to desing a neat looking 50s Cabin so i used the Aestetics of a 30s Car to add to the Truck. Doesn`t look too bad,right? Comments are welcome my Friends.
  3. We all know that the Dark Knight has a Vehicle for every Terrain and for each Environment. Now he also have one for Offroad Purposes.With those large Steel Panes he can plow through everything and the sharp Angles of the outer Shell was inspired by Stealth Bombers to obscure Batmans Ride from the Enemy Radar. Hope you like my newest Creation... I know,a Batmobile needs Fins,but i think they would just destroy the overall Look. I made the Car in yellow,black and grey to match the Microfighters Batman. Maybe the Roof will be switched one Day (because i need it for another MOC)
  4. Oh i love your Mod. Also have the Set and i love the Minifigs and that "Fortress" Thingy but i hated the Car so much.completely sorted it into Pieces and made my own beefy Bat-Jeep
  5. Policework in the Future reaches whole new Levels.Lego City and surrounding Areas were hit by a large Crime Wave after Decades of half assed Criminals with Crowbars and Pickaxes versus simple Cops with Torchlights and Handcuffs. Well,Torchlights and Handcuffs are not enough for nowadays Lego City Police Department to fight against Crime. Super Villains and criminal Maniacs of all Sorts are now rampaging through the City and over overworked and underpayed Cops (who also needs a Cup of Coffee from Time to Time) can`t handle it alone. Luckily the now futuristic Lego City is the Home of a megalomanic face and soulless Techcorporation.A few Years ago they invented Anti Gravity Engines and Generators which were a major Success because they could be used in new Vehicles but also retrofitted into older Cars. The Corporation is called S.T.U.D.S. (Society To Underwhelm Dangerous Subjects) and they now present you the Cop of the Future: RED 29 (Really Evil Droid). This massive bipedal Walker is capable near Combat and can shoot massive Grenade Rounds if everything else fails. 200 of these Walkers are currently deployed in the Center of Lego City but also in Crime infested Areas around the Main City. Sure,like every System this one has still a few Glitches and Kinks but nothing too bad.On rare Occasions RAD might stomp on parked Cars or shove them aside but overall he is pretty peacefull as long as you obey the Laws.
  6. Now that sounds promising.I would really hate it to see bubible go without a Word.
  7. Hey Guys,i made a new futuristic Vehicle to fit my Lego City Future Theme. This Time it is a not so ordinary Police Cruiser. The Design was heavily inspired by pretty much every Movie that has flying or hovering Cars. I`m very satisfied with my Build,the Car can be swooshed around easily,is very sturdy and has a nice Weight.All i have to do now is to add a red Hovercar so the Cop inside the Policecar (yes,a Minifig with Police Hat fits easily in there) has something to chase around. As you will see in the Pictures,i also made a good Use of those pesky Super Jumper Thingies.They might be bad for your Minifigures,but they are perfect Stands for a Hovercar.... So,what do you think of my newest Build?
  8. I`m no professional Photographer,so sorry for the lousy Pics.But i sure had some Fun with my Daleks and Cybermen.... Dark Water: Not from a particular Scene,just Daleks exterminating a Human in a Unit Storage Hangar.... Hey,it`s Rusty,the Dalek,blasting other Daleks into Pieces.......Daleks are bad,Daleks must be exterminated....!!!! These are the Daleks who survived me.
  9. Totally get your Idea.Well,the Batman Logo would still be there,the black 2x2 Slope on the Front would carry a Batman Logo Sticker from the original Desert Batman Car.With the Fins,well you are right. The longer i look at the overall Shape of this Vehicle,it looks more like something to fend of a Riot of some sort or a Villain Vehicle.Some Fins or Bat Wings would definitive help,but where to place them without destroying the Design too much.Someone pointed out that the Car looks very Frank Miller like,maybe we can work with that. So if someone has any neat Ideas on how to incorporate Wings/Fins i`m all Ears.
  10. Hey Guys, i recently finished the new "Rescue from Ra`s Al Ghul" Set. I really like the Minifigs and the Building,but i don`t really like the Batmobile in this Set. So i thought about "hey,why not designing your own Offroad Batmobile?" And a few Minutes later in LDD,the new Offroad Batmobile was born.Kinda looks like a Tank or an APC.I was inspired by the Hydra Tank from "Hydra Fortress Smash" but made the Vehicle smaller.The Design is very sleek but the Car still looks sturdy enough to burst through ancient Walls or Concrete. I reused the Stud Shooters from the Original Vehicle. So,what do you think of it?
  11. You`re right Withacee,the Possibilities are endless.Just found in my Parts Bin a slope Piece like the darkblue back on the blue/grey Threewheeler,only in light blue,with yellow black racing Stripes,a Number 18 on it and i also have a matching Roof.I think we all know that a Racing Version is a Must,...hehehe build for speed :D And guess what Guys,i managed to cobble enough Pieces together to build two cute Threewheelers.The Yellow one is a rusty Beater (that`s the Reason for having mismatched Colors...) and a pretty nice one in Red. They are pretty neat,right?
  12. Thanks Guys,i`m glad you like them.As far as the Inspiration goes,they have different Roots.Many Countries had various Three Wheelers in the early Days and this is some sort of a mix up.They all have odd Proportions,look funny and a unique Handling.Since this Car was made by a fictive Brand which had it`s Origins in Great Britain,you can count this Car as a Mixture between a Peel (mainly the blue Version),a Reliant in tadpole Configuration (two Wheels in front,one in the Back) and the infamous italian Vespa Ape (=ital. for Bee,not a Monkey). Right now i have a brick build Goblin made from leftover Bricks on my Desk (i pretend it`s a very old and banged up Version) and it makes a lot of Fun pushing this little Thing across my Desk,making U-Turns (and miserably fail while doing so) and instead of pew pew or swoosh Sounds i try to imagine a high pitched stuttering two stroke Engine Noise for this Thing.....rangdadang...danggadang...dangdangnang....."big blue Smoke Cloud"
  13. Okay Gang,meet the Fleet: The Ronnel Goblin was a small Vehicle that was very popular in the 50s and 60s.Mostly by People in rural Areas but also in Cities when People didn`t have the Money for a "real" Car.Well,the Goblin really tried to be a real Car with a Cabin With of other Compact Cars at the Time but it just can`t hide it`s Origins.Ronnel was a Manufacturer for Mopeds and small Motorbikes which had it`s only Factory in an Industrial Area in Lego City. The Engine was a quirky little two-stroker with roughly 25 HP.Sounds not like much but the Goblin was very light,thanks to the used Materials like Aluminium,Plastic and Wood. The Goblin could be ordered with various Configurations and Attachments. The Threewheeled Base and the high Center of Gravity made the Car a bit unpredictable at high Speeds and in Curves. The End of the 60s also Set the End for the Goblin.New Safety Laws and plummeting Sales were the last Nail in the Coffin for this Car. Well,today you can still see them here and there and a large Fan Community still moves those little Threewheelers. More Variants are in planning.Any more Ideas?
  14. Holy shmoly, that looks awesome.Now that's a Bike the Rider can be proud of.I wonder if I can get most of the Parts in that Color.Guess that's already bad News for that Tooth Piece because as far as I know it only comes in yellow and white. A Parts list would be cool.Most Pieces can be recognizer but what is the Fork made of? The upper part is that Thing often used for Flick fire Missiles but that lower Part that kinda looks like a Spoon.
  15. Man,those brick built Bikes are epic.Just bought the new Marvel Set with Spiderman, Hobgoblin and the Ghostrider.Love the Ghostrider but hate that so called Bike.It is huge and looks weird.I wonder if something suitable for the Ghostrider can be build in the Size of your Bikes.Could still be epic with Flames and Horns sticking out from the Bike...
  16. That Gas Station looks stellar.Love those Details,and it really looks like those old Gas Stations in Germany from the 50s and earlier.Some still exist,even if they are heavily modified,obscured or stripped of any Details. Also i`m pretty sure i already saw this MOC somewhere....it`s that sweet Gas Station that`s curretntly at Display in the Lego Store Frankfurt,right? Love your Work.
  17. hoexbroe:Love you Citroens.I took your 2 CV Instructions and gave the Car a little futuristic Hover Car Treatment: Currently i have one brickbuild 2 CV on my Desk.I`m aiming for the black / dark red Charleston 2 CV and still need the Parts for the Sides in Dark red. Love your Work.
  18. Wow,that looks great. Love those detailing and the crumbling Structures like the large window frame failing from all the pressure of the collapsing General Store. Looking on the first Pics of the Plate I thought "wow,that was a serious case of Hit and Run". Someone played too much GTA.
  19. Many People know the Science Fiction Movie "Blade Runner" and they all know and love the Police Spinner,that driving or hovering tricked out Police Cruiser. Yeah,so much Love for the Spinner,but what about all other "iconic" Cars from the Movie? For example the Metrokab. Sure,it`s boxy,ugly and not exactly the wet Dream of every Car Enthusiast.But we need Taxis then and now.And when we need one,a comfy reliable Metrokab is all yours....sort of. My LDD Version is still not completely finished,still need better Pictures of the Interior. So,what do you think of my newest Creation?
  20. I think this is the third time I saw the Forum flooded with Threads all filled with the same gibberish.A mass of Korean letters,numbers and symbols.It is kinda weird going through several pages of new content only to see half of the sites are just filled with this gibberish spam. On a funny sidenote:copy that gibberish into Google translator and let it translate into a language of your choice.Use the speaker version and it just says something like 8or9...weird
  21. Well,these will be Fun to feel in those Bags....or not.The only distinctive Figures that can be found by feeling for the 2x2 Plate from Joachim Löw and maybe the Guys with those more spikey Hairs.Everything else is just Balls hidden in Bags with...okay i will stop right there,sounds dirty enough :D But to be honest,i`m not too happy with this Series.I don`t care about Soccer or Sports at all.And i think it would be much better if every Minifig has its own unique Accesoire that more or less fits loosely a certain Character Trait. And harvesting them for Parts will get pretty boring.Maybe some recolored Hairpieces and fleshy Heads and the Rest are just Torsos and Legs with same Printings....oh and Balls,lots of Balls. Guess if someone sees headless German Soccer Team Minifigs on Bricklink that`s me :D On the other Side,maybe i`m too harsh right now.Maybe i will like them when they are available....we will see.
  22. Well,i guess it`s pretty much finished.The "Dungbeetle" (i really love that Nickname) is floating on Hoverpods but it still got a lot of Changes and remakes. If you want you can check it out here: http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=116820&st=0&gopid=2525176entry2525176
  23. Meet Clay and Jessy,the brave Crew of the "Dungbeetle". No,they aren`t trained Professionals on a fancy schmancy Spaceship or on a Boat,they just keep Lego City clean.And "Dungbeetle" isn`t a Highspeed Car,it`s just their trusty and reliable Garbage Truck. Clay and Jessy are Sanitation Workers or Trash Collectors,and both love their Job. Clay is more of a calm and laid back kind of Guy.He knows every Street,Nook and crammed Backyard in Lego City and enjoys sitting in the Truck and driving in carefull between Obstacles. His Partner is Jessy.She`s definately a hot headed Adrenalin Junkie and loves to skate or to ride on her Mountainbike. Guess this is the Reason she loves "Garbage Surfing". She pulls old Trashcans from the Boardwalks to the Garbage Truck where they will be emtied (modern Trashcans already have lots of Tech Equipment build in so they float to the Garbage Collector and they empty themself)
  24. Ohhhh...now I see.Hehe,silly me.Will try it tomorrow.Now it's time for sleeping. Ohhhh...now I see.Hehe,silly me.Will try it tomorrow.Now it's time for sleeping.
