Nice, it's really looks like a crossbow now! -

I agree, and gearboxes are a great example of this. -
[TC13] Steampunk windup clock
mocbuild101 replied to ludov's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Looks great! ...or should I say, it looks horrible, but it works great! Not really sure what's best for a housing - especially with that big turning part... (which, by the way, is very cleverly built) -

Yeah, I guess you're right... -
In terms of chassis, I think they should only be made out of back or grey - mainly for the sake of realism, but also because it provides a better contrast with the colors used in the body. And really, now that TLG has moved to red and yellow axles, it would make more sense to use monochrome colors, because a red axle going through a red beam isn't the best thing for easy building... Sometimes it's just because the builder doesn't have as much black as other colors...

Help with identifying parts/sets!

Image quality isn't very good, but it looks like it's this: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=3482#T=C&C=9 -
Aesthetics and Technics
mocbuild101 replied to Didumos69's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I've started to do that a bit too lately, it's not that I don't like them, it's more so I don't get disappointed by my own MOCs - because if I only look at the average MOCs, mine will seem just as good, and I will end up a lot happier after I build something. I agree - because once people are "tricked" into visiting the TF, they will look at other, and possibly your own MOCs, and you'll end up getting more views than if that frontpaged MOC hadn't been posted. Yeah, just because they prefer to spend more time building than taking good photos, doesn't mean that their MOCs aren't great. Exactly! Same here... -
[TC13] Headcrab
mocbuild101 replied to zweihander's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Should be very interesting... Even if it ends up looking a bit strange... -
Outriggers Thread
mocbuild101 replied to doug72's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Here's a idea I thought of: By turning the green axle (which would be the attachment point), the outrigger will (should) move, before the LA is extended. (By the way, I'm not actually sure this would work, it just the first thing that I thought of...) -
Correct. Here's the LDD file for anyone interested: https://bricksafe.com/files/mocbuild101/mocbuild101/V4 Engine without Frames.lxf

[TC13] Volvo Iron Knight
mocbuild101 replied to Jurss's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Looks great! But why does the cab look like it's been slanted forward? -
