selfshot

Thanks everyone, i don't have MT figures, in fact i've never had model team sets :)

Honestly, the grey on the engine should be chromed, i don't have any chrome parts. However, i tried painting those grey pieces with metallic silver model paint, brush marks annoyed me a lot, so i left it as it is. Additionally the exhaust pipes on the fake engine could be chromed too, again the same method of painting them didn't work. I also ended up having not enough black tiles to cover the top of the battery box :) it also already got quite heavy for one XL motor to drive it, lost quite a bit speed with how it currently is. I totally agree with the grill. Red 2x1 grill pieces covering the bottom half of the grill might have looked more blended in, yet i don't have red grill pieces :) I worked on this for almost about 2 months on and off. I got to the point of abandoning it a few times, so i didn't order and wait for any specific parts. I just found myself wanting to complete it as it is. Thanks for your support and constructive feed back everyone.

Thanks Zblj! I've added the under picture.

Hey folks, Here's my first motorized Hot Rod moc. It's driven by one XL and steering is handled by an M motor. Lights are kind of useless to be honest as it's quite too fragile to drive in dark in my already crowded living room :p But hey, details are details! Here are some of the shots, you can find rest of the pictures on my Flickr profile; I'll record a video and upload/post it as soon as i get my hands on a Gopro or any camera better than my iPhone 4S. Thanks!

It's amazing man!

Thanks OzShan. I am happy with how white-dark tan combination on the trailer looks like as well.

Hey everyone I finally completed my truck which looks like this; I couldn't get my hands on round bricks to give one end of the trailer curves so it ended up being a regular container box. For more pictures here's my Flickr

Thanks Jim. I'm hoping to finish it by first week of April and will be updating this post with finished pictures.

No, i only designed the alternative trailer on LDD to show what i have in my mind to complete it with. Truck and current trailer were built with improvisation really.

Hey everyone, It's been a while since my activity on the forums due to "life" :) , now i'm back with a WIP moc. It's pretty much complete, just need to finish the trailer. I want to hide the battery box there. So i will be buying necessary pieces and build something like this below in 2 weeks; Anyone else wanna share some of their opinion/idea with images/pictures/ldds? I extended the trailer's lenght abit up to 44x10 studs than what it is on the pics, for those who'd wanna create something on ldd for me :) Rest of the pics you can check on my Flickr. All the best!

Love it! your other mocs are great as well, followed!

Thank you so much!

Hello everyone, I am working on a 128x128 studs size creation, I am wondering if there's any tool like Hand Tool in Photoshop etc to move my screen center around in the canvas(?) ? Thanks!

Hey everyone, This is my first post under city/town forum, and here's my 8 wide truck with it's trailer. I tried to replicate the new-gen trucks like Scania's R730 and alike, this is the result of it :) Truck itself; With the trailer; I don't know how many pieces it has as i am not really an LDD builder. Trailer consists most elements from set #3221 as you might have guessed. The trailer could have been 1 brick higher to make it look better and more realistic i think, but i ran out of pieces of matching color. Truck itself took 3, trailer 1 evening for me (working guy). I am not a big fan of city sets, more of a technic/power functions lover, but i loved working on this kind of a model, so you might expect more "minifig scale-ish" stuff from me for your cities :) Sorry for the quality of the images, had to take the pictures in the night time. Hope you liked it and i will make this in LDD if anyone needs.
