veryrusty Posted November 23, 2014 Posted November 23, 2014 So this is my MOC for the TC5 contest. It is only my second ever MOC, so I wanted to do this mainly for the experience. To make it more interesting, I added a few more rules for myself: - I must use two different sets, not just one. - The two sets should have a different colour - I must make something that was not similar to one of the original models. e.g. I couldn't make another motorbike from a motorbike model. So I combined 42021 (snowmobile) and 42022 (hotrod) into a dune buggy. Total part count is exactly 600. Features are: Transversely mounted v6 engine. Front and rear suspension Steering wheel and HOG steering. And here are the photos: Tc5 contest by veryrusty82, on Flickr Tc5 contest by veryrusty82, on Flickr And the leftover bits - enough to make a d model of some kind: Tc5 contest by veryrusty82, on Flickr Quote
MajklSpajkl Posted November 23, 2014 Posted November 23, 2014 Hi, Looks like a very interesting vehicle, but it is a little hard to see it with all that grass covering it. Can you provide some photos with less invasive background? It would be also nice to see thwt transversally mounted engine... Quote

I recommend shooting some pictures where you can clearly see the model. Quote
veryrusty Posted November 24, 2014 Author Posted November 24, 2014 I'll try to take some more photos this week. My photography skills are not great Quote
Jim Posted November 24, 2014 Posted November 24, 2014 I'll try to take some more photos this week. My photography skills are not great I this case it has nothing to do with your photography skills. Just make sure the model is clearly visible. Put it on a table, work bench or something like that. Quote
miguev Posted November 26, 2014 Posted November 26, 2014 I this case it has nothing to do with your photography skills. Just make sure the model is clearly visible. Put it on a table, work bench or something like that. Any hard, flat of slightly convex surface should work fine, but make sure to get really, really down. If the model is on the ground, your camera should be nearly on the ground too. Also, if you can, take the pics on a slightly sunny day when the Sun is low (early morning or late afternoon). Those phew tricks should help getting better pics Quote
veryrusty Posted November 26, 2014 Author Posted November 26, 2014 Ok, so here are some new photo's. I'm sure I'll get better with lighting and things, but at least I think these are much improved. I've looked at some others, and there are some really professional lego photographers out there.
