Posted April 26, 20204 yr Hi there, I made some little Moc in a Classic Space style and today I'm here to show you. I made these Mocs to complete my Classic Space diorama, so I tried to make them by using just parts from that era, more or less 1979-1987. The diorama is about 160 x 60 cms The first one is a kind of a Command space centre: The second one is a little complex because I wanted to create a refinery, consisting of an extraction center, a refining plant and the storage tank. The last one is a little vehicle for the transport of debris... That's all folks. Edited April 26, 20204 yr by kevin8
April 27, 20204 yr Very innovative! I like the use of Blue Tail 4 x 2 x 2 to elevate the Command Space Centre above the lunar baseplate, and the use of Yellow Windscreen 6 x 4 x 2 Canopy as a window/skylight on the roof of the building. Nice details on the air tank storage and satellite dishes too. Refinery is excellent. Nice use of Technic pieces on the mining rig. Pipework and valves really capture the feel of Classic Space.
April 28, 20204 yr Author Thank you! I really tried to capture the feeling of classic space, but it's not easy because we are used to the new parts now. I tried to build like a child, but at last I had to use Stud.io...
April 28, 20204 yr Well done! I love the small vehicles - the little tanker is detailed and cute, and the space tractor-trailer looks like a natural extension of Classic Space, as does your Command Space Centre. The bumblebee stripes make everything mesh together too!
April 28, 20204 yr Such a feel in my childhood's heart :D I like the SNOT technic for the little middle-tank !

April 30, 20204 yr The refinery looks awesome. I love the idea of using only old pieces, reminds me of the idea books pictures of big space bases with lots of technic visible.
April 30, 20204 yr Author My idea partially started from there... but Classic Space was not so well-developed on old Idea books. Thanks
May 11, 20204 yr Cool! I especially like the Command Centre. If someone had told me that that was a genuine LEGO CS design from the late ‘70s/early ‘80s that was never released, I would have believed them. Captures the feel of CS very well.
