  1. Thanks Jerry :) appreciate the feedback from a fellow designer - it was fun finding the right parts for these odd shapes. I do enjoy a good challenge at times. Cheers JTS - it was a car I chose the minute I saw the McLaren panels, knowing the curved arches would suit the high front wheel arch area best. the stickers are on route from Nuno so I’ll be updating the photos with the new stickers and some outdoor shots (when the snow melts) this summer!
  2. Hello all! Today I'm pleased to share with you the Hennessey Venom F5 Revolution! This hypercar seemed to be the perfect fit for panel selection from the P1 offerings... The new curved fender panels and taller rear wheel arch seemed amazing to replicate this brilliantly shaped American speed demon! Many new techniques were used to create the shaping and design of this MOC, and the quick motorized lift system was the second hardest part of the build. The most complex design feature was definitely the doors, they're quite heavy and required very careful leverage to open them. Then I needed a new way to keep them open, so I created a ratchet mechanism to keep the doors open without falling down and two buttons in the engine bay to release them. Built for RC or manual enthusiasts, this car has HOG, working steering wheel, two gears tucked into the engine bay that can be used to lift the suspension manually or open the front two doors from the back of the car. The instructions are without the black stripe at the front (full Bright orange), but you can change it to a more sporty look with the change of the 3x 11L beams and #5, #6 technic panels. Motorized options are below: I was very happy to use the hotdog parts as steering wheel handles and with help from a good friend the snow board used for the backrest of the seat.

Epic chome parts by bubul chrome all over. Thanks mate!
  3. Hi, I do agree the front could have been at least 1 stud lower. when shaping it is sometimes a compromise as to whether the panel placement will work on the perfect angles. As I went lower, other appearances looked poor so I kept what you see here. This I totally agree. But chose to use the cheaper 4L axles instead of 5L black axles for the wing height to keep the rare part count down. Thanks! Thanks Langko, I use Lego as a creative outlet without boundaries and have pushed myself to follow the lines as close to the original as possible, not worrying about perfect connections but placing appearance first. Here are a few more photos. Thanks for the interest guys.

  4. Hello Gents, I'm very pleased to announce my latest design the Porsche 911 (992) GT3 R! Porsche 911 GT3 R by lachlan cameron, on Flickr When I saw that Anto had created a new gearbox/shifter with the new parts and MTG from Instagram requested this newest Porsche, completely redesigned from the carbon fiber framework to the aerodynamics I knew what had to be done. Insane gearbox designed by anto !! by lachlan cameron, on Flickr I have stayed away from designing any Porsche 911 as the original 42056-1 was super iconic and I wanted to create something very different than that. So fast forward to today and Porsche unleashed the latest racecar to the circuit, the 911 (992) GT3 R! Porsche 911 GT3 R by lachlan cameron, on Flickr This design is loaded with functions, 6 speed gearbox with neutral and reverse (thanks ANTO!) HOG with working steering wheel, 5 suspension heights with 3 of the heights having torsion bar, lockable doors, opening trunk, inline 6 engine linked to a gearbox and working paddle shifter! Porsche 911 GT3 water 💦 by lachlan cameron, on Flickr I wanted to design the car with the black exterior and red trim, to replicate the real color of the new racecar. The only way to do this with original Lego pcs was to do so with the 13x2 wheel arches. So I had to try an make this work with the larger daytona rims and it turned out to have just enough space under the arches for full steering capabilities at each ride height. Now the car is avail in both red and black colors. Porsche 911 GT3 R by lachlan cameron, on Flickr As usual I wanted to showcase all the functions well, the gearbox is highly visible allowing for maximum playability and view of the real mechanics running this 1:8 supercar.

  5. Hi all! I have taken some cues from @LegoHoops with this fully Lime modified BMW M4 GT3. I love what he did with the rear lights, so I've changed those to have trans clear integrated. This required new instructions and part list to bring the lime version to life due to the limited pcs. Thanks to the new Lego Lamborghini Huracan 42161-1 many of the new panels are avail with this set. https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-167189/Loxlego/bmw-m4-gt3-lime-version/#details Full Lego Lime BMW M4 GT3 by lachlan cameron, on Flickr Full Lego Lime BMW M4 GT3 by lachlan cameron, on Flickr Full Lego Lime BMW M4 GT3 by lachlan cameron, on Flickr Full Lego Lime BMW M4 GT3 by lachlan cameron, on Flickr Full Lego Lime BMW M4 GT3 by lachlan cameron, on Flickr
  6. I love all the mods you did with the Lime version! I didn't realize how easy the swap is with the availability of the new Lime panels! You have inspired me to make some mods to Lime as well, I will try and get a part list together so others can build it too! Slow transformation…. by lachlan cameron, on Flickr
  7. I cannot wait to see what you come up with on the lime version! I'm already impressed with your adjustments to the grill, keep going! Thanks Dan! I have created a part list for the red/white/black versions in the link below. You will need to paint 1 3x15 wheel arch, and there is a slight mod at the rear to replace the new red 7x1 crossed beam to white. See below. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1MAijor0Tmy3zLZ0NMxKDeHw8dBodt8cY?usp=drive_link Part list for black white red version avail in link below!!! by lachlan cameron, on Flickr Part list for black white red version avail in link below!!! by lachlan cameron, on Flickr Part list for black white red version avail in link below!!! by lachlan cameron, on Flickr
  8. Thanks mate! Here is a idea of how these rims work :) Custom @systemofabrick hub! by lachlan cameron, on Flickr Thank you Langko, appreciate the comment from a fellow designer, always searching for the best part to fill the void! Cheers Nerdforprez - Id be interested in seeing what you could come up with.

  9. Hello All!! I'm very happy to share my latest Technic supercar design, the BMW M4 GT3! I spent the entire summer working on the chassis, trying to make use of the new Ferrari Daytona parts (rims, differential, panels) to create a fast RC design with full turning capability and full speed. My latest design, the 1:7.5 BMW M4 GT3! by lachlan cameron, on Flickr This build features 5 different suspension ride heights, 3 of which have torsion bar suspension, full RC drive and steering with working steering wheel and lights, manual option with HOG, door locks, opening hood truck and doors, inline 6 engine. BMW M4 GT3 by lachlan cameron, on Flickr I wanted the suspension to have an easily adjusted height, something that can be switched on the fly, and to be able to create a racecar stance, lower at the front and taller at the rear, all while being fully functional in RC mode for each height. My latest design, the 1:7.5 BMW M4 GT3! by lachlan cameron, on Flickr The new differential allows minimal friction, allowing this car to hit a very comfortable speed with 1 buwizz and 2 buggy motors. The steering is very nimble with full turn capability, and even more so with Andrea's brand new design - custom create rims that actually remove the brake disk from Lego and use his own designed hubs to sink the deep disk rim inward, while still providing functionality to the RC drivability thru the u-joints. My latest design, the 1:7.5 BMW M4 GT3! by lachlan cameron, on Flickr @snakeeyes_friex designed the livery, this man can design without boundaries. Honored he could help with this model and all the hard work. Thats all for now... more photos to come! Enjoy!

  10. It is very challenging to create front wheel drive with the massive shocks. The wheels would not turn, due to the shocks getting in the way.
  11. Hi Everyone! I wanted to share my latest build with you all, the Audi Avant RS6 - a special commission build! I wanted to scale the car to the new Daytona rims, thankfully the car itself has large rims from factory. I used Sariel's scaler for proper proportions, 29 wide x 74 long x 23 studs tall. The client was interested in a wide body, so I widened the width of the car to 31 studs, allowing for the large wheel arches. Audi Avant RS6 by lachlan cameron, on Flickr I was very grateful when I found Anto's compact 8 speed gearbox, I asked permission to use it in this model. It was low, allowing more interior room for more of a realistic back seat and rear hatch. Knowing the model was going to be quite heavy, I built 2 suspension hieghts that can be manually adjust by moving the shocks 1 stud in or out to raise or lower the car. Audi in the wild by lachlan cameron, on Flickr Next I really wanted to create a simplified paddle shifter, one that would fit in the 4 stud's of space I had between the engine and the driver seat. Building a robust framework around all the mechanics was the next step. Thankfully when using Lime parts for the exterior, I was limited with basic parts. This made sure I could make many different colour options for the car once complete; red, lime, white and black. The client wanted DBG - so with some modifications he was able to make the car fully with Lego in the new colour (not a cheap option by any means 😜) Audi Avant RS6 by lachlan cameron, on Flickr To add a touch of realism, I added lights to the front and the rear, really this enhances the look of the car especially when taking photos. All in all, it was a great challenge to meet the functional requirements and appearance to follow the real car in size shape and form. I was quite happy with the side mirrors and it was very fun to design the roof rack :) Audi Avant RS6 by lachlan cameron, on Flickr Here is a video of it in action, and a few pics of the final product. Build on guys and gals, you're never too old to enjoy this hobby!

  12. Hi Guys, the F40 instructions are completed - check out my rebrickable page and build your own! It has 64% of the same pcs as the daytona set, and if you make the framework grey it will have an even closer match of parts. https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-140629/Loxlego/ferrari-f40/#details Ferrari F40 by lachlan cameron, on Flickr I will film the edit of this car once the weather gets better. Stay tuned :) Ferrari F40 front view by lachlan cameron, on Flickr
  13. Thanks for this side by side view. You, and many other are right. So I tried to correct it, this will be my last iteration, hope you like it :) The final iteration - roofline corrected by lachlan cameron, on Flickr The final iteration - roofline corrected by lachlan cameron, on Flickr Ferrari F40 - pop up headlights by lachlan cameron, on Flickr
  14. Thanks ! I totally agree, I have lowered the roof 1 stud, here is the result. Thanks for your advice, coming from the 1:10 king of F40 himself!
  15. Driving Ferrari's twin-turbo exotic is the closest you'll ever come to experiencing a nervous breakdown. Designed to commemorate Ferrari's 40th anniversary, the F40 is highly revered among gearheads. Ferrari Outdoors - when the sun ☀️ rises by lachlan cameron, on Flickr And gears ⚙️ it has… this iconic car is true to the original, a 5 speed gearbox + reverse, HOG (manual) steering with working steering wheel, opening doors, hood and engine cover, pop up headlights, opening doors, the classic black stripe and a realistic interior. The framework is solid, the roof can be lifted from the B pillars. Ferrari F40 by lachlan cameron, on Flickr Using the new Daytona rims, this car looks like a track ready machine. Very cool to be building with new panels and parts, and to understand the design, not your average supercar shaping! Enjoy these white room shots of the #F40 in technic form and scroll thru the photos for all the details!
