@Bublehead I'm trying to get through college, so I cannot currently add to my collection consistently in that manner. So I am stuck with building one MOC at a time. -
"Finished" only happens for me when I get a new idea that requires the parts used in the MOC I currently have built.
-
In the future, try to post some progress of the model, not just announcements about what's coming. So... What scale is it gonna be in? What wheels are you using? Do you have any axle designs yet?
-
Nice build! Are my eyes deceiving me, or did I see that truck pull a wheelie?! Good luck in the contest!
-
Cool model for sure, definitely looks like a Lambo! My only critique is that the rear looks too short, there should be some body behind the wheels to ease the transition to that massive bumper/exhaust.

Bugatti Chiron 1:8
Leonardo da Bricki replied to Leviathan's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Oh yes! I saw the video a while back, was wondering when this would be posted! Finally done, and man! This build is just mind-blowing! Lego's will most likely be rather disappointing in comparison with this beautiful masterpiece... I am amazed by the gearbox and it's ability to drive this massive model, I cannot wait for the instructions! -
@eric trax Thanks for the comparison photos! The Claas tires look awesome on those rims! I might have to get 4 of them...
-
Ah, a classic car! Another incredible build! The chrome bits add a lot to the overall appearance. I'd love to see more chrome in your next cars.
-
The aggressive stance and curves look good, and a bit futuristic. The rollcage and engine details in the rear are cool, but some lights might be nice to have. Good luck in the contest!

[MOC] Trophy Truck
Leonardo da Bricki replied to P3T3R's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Welcome to EuroBricks @P3T3R!!! I like your MOC, its a lot better than my first Technic model. The front curves on the wheel arches look great. Lots of models focus heavily on the looks, so don't worry, it's not heresy! -
UPDATE: Gearbox Is Working! 1. I have made the gearbox work using some system parts to achieve a smooth(er) shift every 90degrees. It will work much better with the frictionless connectors once they arrive. Photos will come later tonight, or tomorrow, I need to clean up the mechanism first. 2. The parts order is being processed... And I got myself some parts not needed for this model, but a future one... While I'm doing this... Maybe...
-
Awesome entry, good luck to you! I have to say, despite the size, the shaping is excellent! I especially like the rear of the SUV, it flows well!
-
Another incredible build! The tractor is very smooth, the lines are excellent! Hard to tell that it's Lego... I did read the whole description! How much are the Claas tires stretched to fit the Power Puller wheels?
-
@Aleh It looks great this way with the black spare! Also, it looks pretty good with the motocross tires.
-
UPDATE: Gearbox Shifting Fixed 1. I am using a 1x4 L beam as a 90degree limiter currently, and it works better than previously... with the exception of the fact that the gearbox only shifts one way. However I have an idea that will hopefully work better. I'm hoping to use some connectors to get the required shift gate (?) I need for this to work and shift both up and down. 2. I'm waiting for one part to come back in stock, then I'm gonna place my parts order. Hopefully that will happen this week, and the parts will arrive the week after!
-
Excellent model! The functions are awesome, and I really would like to know more about the gearbox design! Only I would change is have the spare wheels be black, and the rear ones dark bley. +1 for HoF!
-
Cool engine! I might have a use for this in the future... After I finish the Nomad.
-
Thanks for the advice guys! I am planning to buy the parts I need... But I will have to get them from both Lego and Bricklink. Lego is sold out on some parts, and no one American seller on Bricklink has a reasonable price for all of the parts I need to get. @Carsten Svendsen He was talking about the dark red axles with end stop, but I only have around 15 of them. The dark bley ones have a stud on the end, and yes, I have lots of those.
-
One week has passed, and that means... IT'S TIME FOR AN UPDATE!!! The chassis: Size has been (mostly) figured out, I'm still working on how to fit it all together, including HoG with a working steering wheel. The gearbox/transmission/shifter: minor problem here... Currently, it has too much friction/stress in it. I will have to buy the frictionless 3L connectors for the gearbox. And probably change the shift mechanism as well. @Didumos69 Either I built it wrong, or (heaven forbid!) it doesn't work as well when coupled to a gearbox. Still tweaking it, I'll see if something works out... Sorry for the low-quality photos, I'll (hopefully) have better ones tomorrow.

That little forklift is perfection! Cool pair of builds, I would definitely get this if it was an official set.
-
Wow... Never thought that kind of arm movement was possible... And it is such a clean model. Except for that light. Great work! Also like how the AA battery box is used, I have to do the same in my models, as I do not yet have the AAA or rechargeable batteries. Yet...
-
Very cool model! The mechanics and physics are fascinating!
-
@Marxpek & @Void_S If I see something I like, and have images like these, I will reverse-engineer it. I know it's a MOC, and not for sale, nor are there instructions. However, that doesn't mean I wouldn't like to have this custom model on my shelf, alongside either of the aforementioned sets.

42083 - Bugatti Chiron
Leonardo da Bricki replied to Jurss's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
1.The three visible gaps on the lower front are the air intakes. 2. The one up and to the right... Is a gap in the bodywork. 3. I'm excited, so far it looks good! I'm hoping for med. blue! *rain of abuse follows* -
Awesome! I want one! Nice tribute to those sets as well. I would have liked to have one of them, but wow, are they expensive now...
