    Fantastic job dude! Looks so good, loving the dark blue. Will there be a video some time? or not risking scratching those blues?

    Thanks for the nice comments, unfortunately I'm doing the Expo now till Tuesday so no time at all, not even at my place, so no hope. haha.

    So whose idea was it to do a LFA???? What a pain in the backside car to do. Well I gave it my best shot, just too darn hard to pull off. I had some bad luck with ever part of the model, nothing wanted to work. I have spend days, well over 40 hours on this and just can't get it right, I think its just this scale and lack of skills in the MT department. well I tried....I had planed to create stickers for the lights too. just don't have any more time, and short on white parts, and no red for interior.

    I have received a lot of messages asking when plans will be available, so just thought that I would let you know they are available now. Thanks guys for your patience! http://mocplans.com/designer/deadly-nightshade.html

    I agree too, Sat or Sun. :D

    I'm surprised that is how these designers build, on a desk like that. What I mean is most of us have work benches with an organiser or some kind behind like trays for sorting parts out with. I believe that is far more efficient way of building. Or do you think they "cleaned" up for filming??? :tongue:

    That is really cool. I like how the wind makes it move. Good to see something completely different.

    Sounds great but I'm at the wrong end of the country and never made a GBC before! Best of luck!

    I reckon the closest you will get are Ansmann 1.9" tire which is what I use for a lot of my mocs as they are awesome tires! Measuring the tire in front of me I get 106mm dia, with a width of 37mm tho. Any 1.9" should fit the rim you are using tho. Hope that helps. Or perhaps this would work better. http://store.rc4wd.com/Rock-Crusher-II-XT-19-Tires_p_688.html

    I'm very honored to see my creation blinged out! It looks so awesome! Fantastic job with the engine. :thumbup: The other mocs are incredible too, thanks so much for sharing, made my day!

    That's pretty cool, I like how it folds no matter how many are torn off. Great idea! Funny bit in the middle of the video too.

    Thanks for the great feedback guys! I do have 2 dampers from 8466 so will give that a try. Just weighed it more accurately and it is actually 904 grams! I wonder if lithium weigh less than standard AA. Yes they are 81 mm tires, my fave I think, best shape and size.

    Hey Everyone! I thought I would make a new thread as I'm very excited to offer instructions at MOCplans very very soon! Also after a month of trying due to bad weather and stuff, finally have finished the video. Extremely happy with how it turned out, so without any further delay I present the Deadly Nightshade Off-Road Buggy! Extra pics here https://www.flickr.c...57647263278138/ Instructions here http://mocplans.com/designer/deadly-nightshade.html Thanks for watching!

    That is a good point, however with my model I have discovered another problem using 'retractable" exhaust steering, as soon as you go to push the model it slides back inside making it completely useless! haha however as a device to turn the wheels as a display model only, it works fantastic! So I have to ask myself do I want a display model or something that can be driven around? This could be endlessly debated!

    Breathtaking car! :thumbup: My one and only fav Ferrari.
  18. Doc_Brown
    Thank you very much! Yes I agree, after playing with the chassis as is, so I have decided to abandon the idea of exhaust steering, and try to make something for the roof where that little antenna is. Also I'm going for white now, as I was surprised at how much I have from various sets. One good order should be enough. Also I'm going to try and puts some cool interior functions in as well. stay tuned!
  19. Doc_Brown
    That's a really good idea! I will look into that, I kinda like using pins as pipes but you will see the ends and might look a little odd.
  20. Doc_Brown
    What a stunning beast! Great job. :thumbup: I love the cage too.
  21. Doc_Brown
    Thanks for the feedback and suggestions guys! Yeah I will have to ditch the exhaust steering, just too big I think, hehe. I'm not sure what colour yet. I'll keep thinking about it, still have a few weeks lol.
  22. Doc_Brown
    Such an awesome model! True story my parents nearly brought that exact car! I have a 78' on my desk right now and looks so good! My only crit would be that the roof is a touch low, other than that perfect! :thumbup:

    Here is my wip so far on the Lexus LFA, the sexiest sounding car every made! I wanted to make a larger scale of this car towards the end of the year, so I thought I would try this scale first to get a idea of the design. The exhaust is a little too big, but as you can see it functions as the steering wheel for HOG steering, by pulling out and then pushing back in place again. I love the rear defuser, perfect part for the job, just a little too narrow, but who cares! The steering itself I'm quite fond of as it is very low and compact. I have no idea how I'm going to cover this car as yet, I'm hoping raiding my very old Lego box might reveal some nice studded parts, but its a long shot. This sure is a tricky car to make as only one other smaller scale model has every been made in Lego, but I will give it my best shot! So should I keep the steering via the exhaust or try to make a smaller more visually appealing solution? Comments? Thoughts? Fire away!
  24. Doc_Brown
    Ahh I remember those! hahaha, funny as! Will you be able to fit a bag of cement on the passager side to stop it rolling over? Looking forward to seeing this thing in action!

    Awesome little buggy.
