  1. The size of these giant machines can be so deceiving. I was planning to build a wheel loader at the same scale as the dozer, but when I started calculating the dimensions, it appeared that a model of Cat 994K would be 30 x 105 x 37 studs which is a bit too much.
  2. There is a little mystery about the car and the presentation. On the 4th photo, there is a displaced blue pin in the hood. It leads to a conclusion that the first photo is mirrored, which can be confirmed by the orientation of the Ferrari logo. So why is it mirrored?
  3. Great idea! I tried to do something similar in the past but never truly finished the project. Maybe this will help you somehow.
  4. Thanks for the comments everyone! Sure, they are built in different scales. That orientation was better for the demonstration. The former.
  5. I would like to present a 1:24 scale model of one of the largest bulldozers in the world, Caterpillar D11T. Features of the model: - Planetary subtractor for simple control of driving and steering; - Automatic track tensioning; - Remotely controlled driving and steering, blade and ripper operation plus motorized access ladder; - Complete set of lights. The whole mining crew so far: Thank you for your attention!
  6. Thanks! You are right, the lava is a bit schematic here.
  7. Castle walker: Mobile watchtower: To be continued...
  8. The creator of this tiny world was short of blue materials and therefore he turned oceans into lava. Luckily, this citadel has a separate water storage.
  9. Thank you, @LegoModularFan and @carebear!
  10. Thanks! I also have a very big one: I guess I need something in between...
  11. Confused: Trickster: Female portrait: Thank you for your attention!
  12. That's because you eliminated the gaps between vertically oriented sections when you put them freely side by side.
  13. If you mean that you are putting 3 vertical sections freely side by side then of course they will be shorter that the horizontal stack of plates because you are eliminating the gaps between sections. And if are still having two stacked 8 10 stud long plates at the bottom, then the bending should be still present.
  14. Here is a comparison of your build and a build with a base consisting of short plates (I also used plates 1x4 with 2 studs): By the way, in both of your builds the top side of the frame is bending as well.
  15. My version: As I can see from the photos, the horizontal stack of plates has the same width as the line of blue plates placed above, so the geometry is correct. If you look at the mentioned line, you will notice small gaps between plates which are intentionally added to all bricks to prevent friction. However, the base of the build consists of 4 stacked long plates which bend upwards. This bending displaces the left brown support and also pushes together 3 vertical stacks of plates and bricks negating the gaps between them. Therefore they seem to be shorter than the horizontal stack of plates. Try replacing the long plates at the bottom with several short ones (e.g. 4 studs long) and see if the problem persists.

    [MOC] Revival

    Hello, I would like to present my latest creation called Revival. Video presentation: More photos:
  19. It's so nice to see this train in red livery! Thanks for sharing, Stephen! I wish I had enough parts to build the new version in red...
  20. The previous version is now obsolete, so there's no reason to build it.
  21. Thanks again for the comments guys! As far as I know, 797F version uses a 20 cylinder engine. Anyway, I ran out of space. At least I have a large fuel tank! Thank you! Looking forward to your version! Larger scale brings more possibilities! Probably not. I found that collecting all those yellow parts is quite a painful exercise.
