This beautiy distantly reminds me Zaz 968 from that ancient times :) -
Infuriating Details
Aleh replied to SirSpoony's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Are you really suffering from that small image? Sorry for making your device being overloaded. Another point is the L-panels, which don't suit 3*5 L-shape beam. -
42131 - CAT D11 Bulldozer
Aleh replied to Maaboo the Witch's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
All yellow sets are equally yellow. But ones are equallier Aleady was told many times: - TLG will produce -> blogers will review ->people will complain on the sofa at home aaaand buy. Iteration closes. -

I'm surprised many people mentioned this part. It's useful, when you need to lay the high torque under 90 degree for example. Regular gears may crack/broke. Where am I wrong? How many tyres do we have for 62 wheel disc for instance? -

Lack of wheels and tyres choise. No galore. -
42131 - CAT D11 Bulldozer
Aleh replied to Maaboo the Witch's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
There are no new L shape beams, in the bucket regular 6629 beams were used. I'm sure. And the galves are connected with 15100 pin connectors. Also I see new chain link part, not just a new colour. Then we can adjust track's elastic. -
One day I remembered that this MOC is a 5571 set "on steroids", so it's a good addition to TC20 topic (with a bit exageration) for those, who haven't seen this model yet. I didn't participate with this moc obviously because it had been already published before. So TC20 is a reason for bumping this topic. Sorry. If I'm wrong here :)

42128 - Heavy-Duty Tow Truck
Aleh replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I meant actually not about 12t gears inside, but about the diff as a part. I don't remebmer any broken differentials since 2012 :) -
42128 - Heavy-Duty Tow Truck
Aleh replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Is the new diff stronger and more robust than the regular one? -
42128 - Heavy-Duty Tow Truck
Aleh replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I'm dissapointed because this Tow truck has old differentials. Why did TLG invent new diff and continue putting the old ones into the sets? -
Allright guys, thank you very much for all responces. It's interesting to observe that people do like both WIP and finished model's presentation. Now it's time for my tiny opinion: 1) It depend on MOC and it's size: small mocs do not need WIP presentation at all except they are way too complex. 2) Presentation matters not a lot, but it's vital! My ideal presentation is a finished model with several hq photos and video with functions (since we are talking about technic) - I like "wow effect", then after it the author may post several wip photos and his thoughts about the building process. Though this does not leave us a possibility to discuss this or that solution during building and maybe help the author in case he is doing something out of scale, e.g. So if the builder needs help he has to open WIP, of course. 3) I prefer physical models, not digital builds - I have enough PC at work, so I don't wan't to kill my eyes wasting tens of hours by building the models. The only my model that have digital version is a Mammoet crane as the build is super repetitive. But I understood suddenly that I have to build all moders in stud.io to create good instructions, as I assume not all like step to step photo sequence (if only this is not a brillant work from @Charbel. But the building itself is only about touching the bricks and pieces.

Your Best Technic Bargains
Aleh replied to Kumbbl's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Ordered 42128 for 113 Euro incl shipping from Russia. Looks tens of dollars cheaper than the cheapest lot in BL (incl shipping to Belarus) -
Hello everyone. I'm just curios about how would you like to get new MOCs from designers? Do you like to see the complete MOC with the video and HQ photos at one time OR WIP and participate in the process with advices and simply observe how the creation grows? 2 admins: if the similar topit alreay exists, I may renam this one to some WIP MOC, don;t close please.
