rm8 Posted April 1, 2013 Posted April 1, 2013 (edited) Awesome! Are you working for MB ?:) are you going to fill holes by beams or panels? Edited April 1, 2013 by rm8 Quote
efferman Posted April 1, 2013 Author Posted April 1, 2013 no, i only like their offroad vehicles Quote
Tim S. Posted April 1, 2013 Posted April 1, 2013 Hello, effe, your chassis is really great. Yesterday i rebuilt it and today I started with the bodywork. It makes a lot of fun to play with! Very strong and really fast! Excellent work! Here are some pics... I think the front grill still needs some work and the interior is missing. more pics are here: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=525716 regards Tim Quote
efferman Posted April 1, 2013 Author Posted April 1, 2013 iam happy that you like it ,nice body you have made. at my body this is the current standing Quote
matias bendtsen Posted April 1, 2013 Posted April 1, 2013 great car, maybe i should build it. Make it in military colors, and the danish army would buy it, they have millions of them Quote
rm8 Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 (edited) Effe, in my mind you are the man with always dirty tires:))) real mud driver;) that is not bad, just noticed that you always test your cars outdoor. the 20x30 are equal to the 62 and the 24x43 are roundabaout 81mm in diameter. the baja mtz are really cool, but currently a little bit to expensive for me Yesterday I received 20x30 tires. They are equal to 62.2 as you noticed. Thread pattern is better for offroad than 62's, but rubber is too old and hard as plastic. Grip is bad, sad. But they drift well:) Edited April 2, 2013 by rm8 Quote
efferman Posted April 2, 2013 Author Posted April 2, 2013 Effe, in my mind you are the man with always dirty tires:))) real mud driver;) that is not bad, just noticed that you always test your cars outdoor. makes an offroader sense which will not driven in the dirt? Quote
rm8 Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 makes an offroader sense which will not driven in the dirt? I also test outdoor, but after that I wash it with shower (without electrics:)). Cause my lovely wife dont like all that mud at home:D Quote
jacobkristensen Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 i can move my steering wheel from the left to the right side and the mechanics need the space. and whats wrong at the position? the original U400 has the cylinder at the same place Are smart I have forgotten about that feature, in your mog despite haveing seening long ago. But my reason for the placeing was not to alter the 8110 look Quote
efferman Posted April 4, 2013 Author Posted April 4, 2013 i have modified the shape, what do you think about it? Quote
legomuppet9 Posted April 4, 2013 Posted April 4, 2013 (edited) i have modified the shape, what do you think about it? Looks lovely, the proportions are a lot better than my attempt Edited April 4, 2013 by legomuppet9 Quote
jorgeopesi Posted April 4, 2013 Posted April 4, 2013 Nice but I think a stud less in height and would stay even better . Nice idea work only with connectors to capture the shape, one of my favorite builders ,Tyler Reid, was great in that. Quote
timslegos Posted April 4, 2013 Posted April 4, 2013 I love the shapes of the body, I dont like the hollowness of it though . tim Quote
Someonenamedjon Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 are you just going to leave it with the connectors there? Quote
efferman Posted April 5, 2013 Author Posted April 5, 2013 Nice but I think a stud less in height and would stay even better . Nice idea work only with connectors to capture the shape, one of my favorite builders ,Tyler Reid, was great in that. the full body one stud lower, or only the roof? if the full body i must limit the suspension travel to avoid collisons with the mudguards.@Jon yes most of the connectors will stay @tim most of the holes will be filled Quote
jorgeopesi Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 Only the roof Efferman, nothing to say about the rest. Quote
efferman Posted April 5, 2013 Author Posted April 5, 2013 hmm, i have checked my blueprint and i have nearly the correct relation between the length of the bonett and the height of the windscreen. maybe i can lift up the lower end of the side windows to get the same visual effect Quote
Someonenamedjon Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 maybe you could add some cloth over the back just for fun, that was the first thing that came to my mind Quote
