Technic 2018 Set Discussion
Magical Duck replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
They are technically in 2018... But maybe it's just because we haven't had news since September and it's only 2 months until release- not much point in discussion until then unless we get some leaked images . -
That's a really good looking model! I especially like the technique you used to create the fairings around the lower headlights and the lower grille. I have been following your channel for almost three years now, and your MOCs never cease to amaze me. Fantastic job!

Technic 2018 Set Discussion
Magical Duck replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I just realized that 2018 is the first year in Technic in a long time (since 2015 I think...) that no numbers have been "skipped" in the lineup. In 2016 there was 42051, and in 2017 there was 42067 (which also showed up on the tow truck 42070 for some reason- TOW 067). Cue Anna... For the first time in forever... -
Something like this would be the bare minimum and suitable for 155 pieces: Likely we'll get something like the old Bucket Truck: HOG steering, and lift arm only, though, don't expect fake engine or too many details (like tiny 42084). Doubtful, but I would have loved to see something like this, with a two-cab "mobile crane" configuration... That's just my two cents, though.

It looks like he has used two- look on the top of the superstructure

Technic Photography
Magical Duck replied to Werlu Ulcur's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
That is simply beautiful, with the sun especially. I wish LEGO made promotional pics like this. It might have even convinced me to pick up the Forest Machine.. wait... I just realized that no background goes with that set (read: color vomit). Also, has anyone ever questioned the fact that LEGO vehicles always seem to park themselves or whatever in conveniently placed clearings in some environment where no one else is around? Like, would it hurt to put some people around the sentient vehicle? Excepting (of course) the 42081 that @kbalage has beautifully captured. -
[TC14] 3D Dizzy
Magical Duck replied to shadow_elenter's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
This looks absolutely amazing! All the details, from the sign right down to the entrance booth person, and it functions beautifully! -
Fair enough. But Olav also did 42053 Volvo excavator, which is again considered a highly detailed, accurate model. Maybe they (the Claas and Volvo) just look better because they have to represent the real life vehicle?
-
I was wondering the same thing earlier... and there were areas where the red ones would have looked better, i.e.: Overall, the whole crane looks a bit unfinished. Which I find a bit weird, because Olav Kroigaard also designed the Claas, which was (is) arguably one of the best looking models of LEGO Technic ever.

[WIP] BMW i8
Magical Duck replied to Rolic's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
That looks stunning! I can't wait to see the finished product- you have captured the flowing lines beautifully using LEGO bricks. -
[MOC] CLAAS Challenger 95E
Magical Duck replied to JLiu15's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Very nice work, @JLiu15! I have been following your progress over the last couple of weeks, and I must say the end result is quite satisfying. Like @Aventador2004 said, the hood needs some smoothing, and the cab may be a bit too long, but over all I like the look of it. -
You could almost think this was made to scale to fit them on purpose!
