Posted August 4, 20168 yr This is my attempt at trying a different scale of MOCing. I wanted to test myself in how much detail I can cram into the smallest scale vehicle. I chose to do a semi truck because I figure it was the smallest vehicle I could make while still having lots of detail. The inspiration for this scale comes from a fellow NILTC member, Karl Paulsen, A.K.A. Eilif here on Eurorbricks, and his layout of mini scale town. His town linked here: http://www.eurobrick...pic=131115&st=0 .I talked with him and I wanted to contribute to his layout with a vehicle or two. Here is my first try: LEGO Semi truck by Chris Rozek, on Flickr LEGO Semi truck by Chris Rozek, on Flickr LEGO Semi truck by Chris Rozek, on Flickr LEGO Semi truck Size Comparison by Chris Rozek, on Flickr Thanks for looking! Comments welcome!
August 4, 20168 yr You completely and totally nailed it!!! I can see that the sleeper section is 4 wide, but the model overall looks WAY smaller than the dimensions lead you to believe! The only thing I would try to change is using a different snot piece to try to tile the hood. Awesome job!! Edited August 4, 20168 yr by redtrooper27
August 4, 20168 yr Really really like this little creation! So much detail in such a small model! Edited August 4, 20168 yr by Beck
August 4, 20168 yr Wow! The double wheels in the back an the use of that fender piece in the front are just fantastic. Love it!
August 5, 20168 yr Author Thanks everyone! This was a fun build! I actually tried to make the hood studless, but I liked the look of the studs more, that's why I left them. Still makes the truck look like LEGO, versus a Matchbox car.
August 8, 20168 yr Wow that's some excellent micro scale building! The truck is just perfect. At the first look it seems to be so much bigger than it really is. Great job! :-))
