Merlin Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 So, here is the beginning for my entry... This is the first model more or less finished, althoug it might not look like it :P I am wanting a more "rough" "industrial" look on this one, with a kick of humour... Anyway, I'm not telling you what it is supposed to be, or what the overall theme is. As it is kinda special looking, I thought it might be fun for you all to guess :) I haven't counted the peices yet, but I am very confident that I am withinthe 500part limit. Peices include: 2 power functions m motors 1 power function lights 1 power functions IR receiver and the red light is from a RCX light sensor via fiberoptics. Quote
Phoxtane Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 A tracked farm tractor? A track-tor? Quote
Merlin Posted November 20, 2013 Author Posted November 20, 2013 A tracked farm tractor? It is tracked yes, and it will pull something, but it is not a tractor... :) Hopefully I will have model 2 ready in a couple of days, and it should be possibly a littlebit easier... :) Quote
Merlin Posted November 20, 2013 Author Posted November 20, 2013 I might add that the lights are in the front, and the IR receiver is in the back :) Quote
lukeandahalf Posted November 20, 2013 Posted November 20, 2013 A drilling (shoring) rig? Usually tracked and pulling a trailer with compressor. Quote
Dutch_EE Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 Ahh, "Rudolph the red-nose Raindeer" Quote
boatbuoy Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 Reminds me of a life boat tractor. Looks cool anyways. Quote
Seasider Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 I think Dutch is right ... It's a mechanical rudolf ... The lit red nose is the giveaway ... So I guess a sled and a Santa to follow ? Quote
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 It looks like a base of a dozer Quote
Merlin Posted November 23, 2013 Author Posted November 23, 2013 Well, a couple of you did more or less get it :) Here are some pictures of model 2, red suit and all :) I'm not completely happy with the arms, but as of now I think I am happy :) As seen from the photos he is more or less fully posable, and that I am very happy with.
