Leewan replied to Leewan's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingThank you ! BTW, I'l almost done : It's kinda silly, my entry isn't valid being a virtual MOC, but I still try to respect the rules and the deadline, even if it's useless... -

Leewan replied to Leewan's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingI worked a bit on the interior : There is no room for rear seats, so I attached the rear doors to the chassis, now, only the front doors can be opened, but opening rear doors would've been useless. I also modified a bit the rear area, but nothing big.

Leewan replied to Leewan's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingThank you guys ! Sure, I can share the .lxf if you want. Unfortunately no, I probably have all the necessary parts, but not in the right colors. Here's some progress on the rear (and, as you can see, the HoG have been added) : The "window" area is supposed to be gray, I'll change that. I also have to get rid of the offset between the boot and the window area, but I still want to be able to open the boot, so I need an empty space anyways (is that clear ? ). And, the hardest part, I'll have to make the model look "cleaner", less rough, if I can say so.

That Hau is weird, I hope it's just a CGI effect, and the actual mask will look better. The prints are strange, I don't know what they're supposed to represent. But the boxarts are lovely ! I just noticed that Lewa's arms will be made the same way as his legs, but without the friction joints. I was really expecting them to be shorter... Though, that could explain the need for friction in his gear system. Don't forget we'll have green shells, keetorange shells (Lewa) probably purple or trans-purple bones (Onua / Earth Protector), medium or dark azure shells (Gali), wide shells in white (Kopaka), and probably a silver one on Onua. Aanchir might have to correct me, but I actually think that we've rarely seen as much recolors in a single wave as we do now, at least since the introduction of CCBS.

Do the cars use new specialized parts, like Megabloks Need For Speed cars, or are they brick built like the big Ferrari and Lamborghini Racers sets we've had a few years ago ?

Man, that seems amazing ! I hope you'll soon provide more info, and a download link, I'd love to try it on my TI-83 plus. Good luck !

Why not both ? What I mean is that I think the gearbox will be made of several parts, but some of those parts will be new. I say that because Tahu seems to have a new part visible below his shoulder. Anyways, I'm 200% sure they will be made of several parts, because it would be the only way to justify those parts counts (assuming they're correct).

If they all share the same head, it won't be "flat" like the Inika's head : the shape of a jaw is visible on some Protectors (Ice, Fire, Water and Stone). I'm pretty sure they will all have geared arms. I'm just not sure for Gali, since her shoudlers armors are in the way, but I'm convinced that Lewa (see my mockup), Pohatu, Tahu, Kopaka and Onua (okay, it's quite obvious on Pohatu and Onua) have geared arms. And if the boys have a gear function, why wouldn't Gali have one ?

Leewan replied to Leewan's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingThank you ! Here's some more work on the rear : It's a bit better, though, it doesn't scream Model Team to me. EDIT : And I've just started the roof :

It's not only a HF knockoff, these guys stole this Idea.

Leewan replied to Leewan's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingGuess what ? I'm not giving up. I don't know how it's possible, but my proportions were wrong. The MOC is now three studs longer, and two studs wider (currently about 34*15, so I fit the limits yay). I've built the chassis with actual bricks, the suspension system is really nice to play with, and I'm sure I have a strong chassis. But I won't be able to build thr bodywork without making it look like a rainbow. Still, some progress : The hood is the same as before, but since the car is now bigger, I need to make it 2 or 3 plates taller, so I'll rework it. I want openable doors, but I can't find a proper solution, so they're not currently connected to the chassis (the magic of LDD). I need to rework the tail lights, they don't have the good shape. I don't like that. Wish me luck guys, I'm gonna need some if I want to finish this MOC.

Thanks man ! Unfortunately, I have no idea about Gali (I'm not Sherlock Holmes, and I don't have any super powers, not yet ). Her arms seem to be very low, even lower than the torso's shoulder balljoints, so I'd say the armors are somehow attached to the gearbox module, but I'm absolutely not sure. It's far easier to guess for Kopaka (BTW, it's nice to have a confirmation for the mechanism, because I saw very soon that his shoulder armors were directly attached to the torso, but I couldn't see where the arms were attached).
