(MOC) The Red Monster

[Oliver 79]

Good afternoon people.

After several mini dark ages, I proudly present my latest creation. The Red Monster!

This model came about after trying to get back into Lego via Creator Expert models. Specifically the Ford Mustang and the VW Beetle.

I'm usually more into construction machinery, but my last project just couldn't get my creative juices flowing!

Anyway, there's not a great deal to say about this model other than I wanted to use the big shocks and have hand of god steering. I'll let the amateur pictures and video do the talking. As always constructive criticism welcome.

Thanks for looking!

Do not get me wrong, but it reminds me on this set

At least I see it is very playable and has nice bodywork details (inclooded interior)

There are similarities. Maybe subconsciously it inspired me to build this! 

Thanks for your comments.

I like how you mixed technic and creator style. It also looks pretty sturdy and fun to play with. Where does most of the red parts come from ?

Thanks. The red parts come from bricklink mainly. 

I need to start stocking up on other colours though. Red's getting a bit boring for me!
