Meh, bottom isn't anything special. That is really the only part on the truck meant for function over form. As for mudguards, those are coming! Thanks for the comments guys!

That's why the stickers are there, to hold things in place. Everything except the black ones on the rear lights. They don't actually play a structural role, the stickers are there only incase the MOC is bumped or, since this was photographed outside, in case birds or bugs try and pick the thing up (already happened with another MOC of mine.) I plan to remove the stickers when I take this truck to a convention, as I don't expect people or birds to knock it over. Thank you for the reply, and I'm glad you like it!

This is without any doubt, the most focused-on project I've undertaken. Never, ever have I been up so late working on this, trying to finish it. I present to you, the third update (first on EB) of my "Camo Camion". I've certainly gained a new understanding for the word obsession... I'd say for the most part, this is finished. I'll likely add mudguards sooner or later. That is, once I come up with a viable design. Other than that, I think I've included all the things I had wanted to. For instance; steering, rear suspension, camouflage, interior lighting, room for a minifigure, sensor array, and a hatch. Actually, believe it or not it can hold four figures! Those are what are consider to be the more major details, if you think there is anything else I should add, let me know! I can't stress that one enough. Whether or not you have suggestions, I hope you enjoy looking at this, I spent a lot of time; more time than ever on this. My goal was to make a realistic generic military truck with a wealth of details. I also challenged myself to use a rare colour few others use in their MOCs. I believe I've achieved all this, and perhaps more. Enjoy! :-)

This is a very nice wall-to-wall building! It is quite realistic.

MOXA _________________________________ Modular Expandable Architecture [1] X-axis column [2] Y-axis column [3] Z-axis coulmn [4]Frame [5] Baseplate (interchangeable floor) What is it? The MOXA system is something I developed, initially for myself for building modular skyscrapers, parking garages etc. that were strong, realistic, and interchangeable. Several people asked me a while ago for more on this, so here it is: Applications: This modular building system can be used for: - Large collaborative public displays -City -Skyscrapers -Parking garages -Wide/low flats -Framework for elevated infrastructure. -Space -Tall moonbase buildings -Orbital space stations, docks etc.* -Personal displays -Any building with a small and nice looking, but strong frame -Shelfs *As the studs face every possible way with MOXA, buildings can be attached with floors that face sideways, up, and down. Advantages: -Strong -Looks nice, smooth design; no technic holes -Room for modification -Variable floor height/width/length -Center column/shaft not always necessary -Large plates can be used as floors -Baseplates can be used as floors -Easy for builders to contribute. I was thinking if this were to be used in a collaborative project, say at a convention, builders could each build a floor. Organizers of the collaborative display could build the frame then slide in the floors builders have created. I hope you enjoyed looking at this, and I hope it's helpful to some. As I said, it was initially designed for my own use, so I'm not sure if it suits everyone else's needs. Either way, I thought this would be a nice proof of concept item to upload. :-)

Hello there, welcome to EB!

I'm still waiting for a LEGO store in London. Some day... hopefully.

Thanks all for your comments here. Just as I thought, you all seem to be very nice. Certainly looking forward to getting to know you all and participating in this community. Well thank you, it's always great to hear those things! Also, what a coincidence with that rank. XD

I'm on the other side of this great country tedbeard; S.W. Ontario to be exact. I myself am in a LUG, in fact I believe one of the members from that LUG, Ricecracker, is here on EB.

Well hello there, BrickArtisan here! First off, I'd like to say this looks like a great community. I've been looking for a forum to call home; a community other than Flickr. I can't wait to meet you all! Anyways, I've been a member of the online LEGO community for about three or four years now. I began on MOCpages but moved to Flickr after a few years on MOCpages, and am now here at Eurobricks. With one of my other hobbies being photography, I signed up for Flickr thinking it was just for photographic arts, then realized a large LEGO community resided there too!For about half a year, up until a week ago actually, I had been away from the LEGO community due to a busy life and school taking up so much time. I got back into LEGO after hearing about LEGO Store openings near where I live. So far, I've made several personal achievements in my time within the online LEGO community. For instance, I developed a little fad called Transformatanks, I've had my creations blogged on several sites but never TBB, which is one of my goals. The closest I've got is being credited for ideas on TBB posts. I often build sci-fi, military or City-themed MOCs. Which is probably related to why I enjoy playing Sim City 4 so much. To satisfy my need for sci-fi outside of LEGO, I play a game called AceOnline, and am considered one of the best players there. All in all, I'm pretty nerdy, but I'm proud of it! As of now, I am working on two MOCs, both can be found on my Flickr photostream. You can also find all my older MOCs over there. I hope you enjoy looking at them, and I'm sure I'll enjoy seeing all of your MOCs here on Eurobricks. This seems like a great place to be. :-)
