pacc Posted January 1, 2012 Posted January 1, 2012 You should have made a separate thread about the steinwinter, it brings the focus from the other excellent mocs. Anyway, it seems like a very stupid idea, but when pictured carrying a normal container on top (images) it seems like it is more of a normal car just compressed under the weight of its cargo. Maybe a modern version can decompress when you un-load it ;) Quote
AlexScammer Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 This is really nice! Would it be hard for you to post an instruction for the Rat Rod (mostly the engine) and the Supercar. They are the best. Quote
L@go Posted January 19, 2012 Author Posted January 19, 2012 This is really nice! Would it be hard for you to post an instruction for the Rat Rod (mostly the engine) and the Supercar. They are the best. Thank you! At the moment, I just don't have the time (I'm, among other things, trying to get rid of a lot of old Town stuff). Instead, let me suggest that you try a bit of reverse engineering to find out how I did the engine on the Rat Rod (I've done the same, because my Rat Rod is a copy of Polish Guy's 'Voodoo Psychosis' - see link in the original post)... so have a look, I'm sure you can work it out! And in my opinion, that can be quite fun, too - and a part of the learning process :) The Supercar is a bit more tricky to work out, I admit - mainly because it's six-wide and there are details that you can't see. I'm going to have to get back to that later. Quote
Brickmamba Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 What a great set of cars, the rat rod looks great with the sand green bricks and the super car looks just that with the stig driving is the perfect driver, well done Quote
JackJonespaw Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 Very nice cars! You really have a nice talent! Quote
Henchmen4Hire Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 I like your updated Delivery Van, it looks like it can take a beating and keep on ticking. That Supercar is a good example of cars that look better at this smaller scale. I can't make it bigger without it losing that aggressive appeal, another reason I'm impressed when you guys make cool cars at this scale. Also, are there any chrome blue LEGO visors? It's funny seeing The Stig pop up Quote
RedGiant Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 This is some beautiful vehicles! The Steinwinter is amazing and extraordinary odd... haven't seen anything like that before, but The Rat Rod is my favourite and close to a "must have"!! Quote
timslegos Posted January 25, 2012 Posted January 25, 2012 I think "The Rat Rod" is my favorite. it really looks excellent. tim Quote
L@go Posted January 25, 2012 Author Posted January 25, 2012 Thanks again for your comments! I've just ordered a new bunch of bricks for a new batch of vehicles, so we'll see what you think about those. I'm very happy with the way at least two or three of them look in MLCad, so I'm looking forward to realising them 'in the brick' :) I like your updated Delivery Van, it looks like it can take a beating and keep on ticking.

It's funny seeing The Stig pop up Thanks! While some designs - like my orange Longnose and the lime green Shooting Brake - work really well in your eight-wide scale (they look a little less weird and crazy, and much more realistic) I think the MPV van looks too squashed compared to the width. Regarding the visors - no, unfortunately I think black is the closest I'm going to get :) ...but The Rat Rod is my favourite and close to a "must have"!!

Great job on all. My favorite is your awesome update of the delivery van. A close second is the Steinwinter...an interesting concept. I worked around aircraft for 20 years, and indeed, it looks to be inspired by the ukes employed at commercial airlines. An aerodynamic trailer designed to conform to the truck would make this an effective design, but I digress; you've captured it marvelously. My hat's off to you, sir. Quote
mrlegoman Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 These are all great vehicles, my fave is the Steinwinter Quote
gotoAndLego Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 I had never heard of the Steinwinter before, crazy. I must say that I like your vans the most, with the MPV having a really good front. Quote
