imvanya Posted March 2, 2014 Author Posted March 2, 2014 This green car is fabulous! Thanks, 'vean'! This year's Race car set was quite an inspiration and I guess you can probably agree with me on that Quote
vean Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Thanks, 'vean'! This year's Race car set was quite an inspiration and I guess you can probably agree with me on that Of course! It could be a good subtheme...With all new police sets, bad guys need more sport cars to "work"! Quote
ShrikeArghast Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Some of these are so epic I want to cry. You should put the whole lot as a 'variety pack' on Cuusoo. Quote
imvanya Posted March 16, 2014 Author Posted March 16, 2014 (edited) I've come up with yet another design. The .lxf file can be found here UPD: PDF instrcustions are now available at my Bricksafe here. Edited July 16, 2020 by imvanya Quote
Boettner Builds Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 I like the long "nose" on the new one. It's like a more modern version of the old V-12 cars! Quote

That's exactly what I was going for, something like an Aston Martin or a front-engine Ferrari, a classic Grand tourer Edited March 19, 2014 by imvanya Quote

imvanya Posted May 17, 2014 Author Posted May 17, 2014 (edited) After a kind of a break I have built yet another sports car. Here is a link to the .lxf file I am actually not entirely happy with the roof and I even imagined the rear windscreen piece to have a print or stickers, so I will be happy to hear what you think Edited June 10, 2020 by imvanya Quote
okiba75 Posted May 20, 2014 Posted May 20, 2014 I'm loving these designs! I must install Ldraw so I can make some real versions of them Quote
imvanya Posted October 15, 2014 Author Posted October 15, 2014 (edited) With the Speed Champions coming out in 2015, I couldn't help getting back to building these. I have to say, I really like how the SC sets look. Maybe that's because they are the same scale as my MOCs. The other reason is that they use quite a bit of SNOT to give more texture to the sides of the cars. Anyway, I've had a few cars that were already almost complete, so now it's only a matter of making a bunch of renders. Hopefully, I'll get back with them by the end of the week.

TerminalTitan Posted October 16, 2014 Posted October 16, 2014 Very nice design! I would like to see them in official sets Quote
imvanya Posted October 16, 2014 Author Posted October 16, 2014 (edited) Thanks, 'TerminalTitan', that's very nice of you to say! I myself think that 6-wide cars are a little bit too wide, but they also allow for more complicated builds. There were at least 2 6-wide sport car LEGO sets in the last couple of years and a whole bunch of brilliant 6-wide builds in the LEGO City Undercover video game, so it's great to get a few more sets in this scale. And if you like these MOCs, you should definitely have a look at those new sets. Edited October 17, 2014 by imvanya Quote
SearchFunction Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 Quite a lot of interesting design in these builds, that I havn't seen before. My cars tend to look a lot more bland, but then we have our different styles and maybe thats a good thing . Looks like we are getting some new wheelarches and windows for cars in 2015. Very interesting. Quote
imvanya Posted October 17, 2014 Author Posted October 17, 2014 (edited) Looks like we are getting some new wheelarches and windows for cars in 2015. Very interesting. Yes, indeed. I'm really excited about these new parts, this year's wheels were really popular with me. I am particularly interested in the new windshields, the current variety just isn't enough sometimes. And thanks for the comments, 'SearchFunction', it's great to know I have something of value to share with other AFOLs UPD: I looked at some of your MOCs and I have to say, they aren't at all bland. And unlike you, I am yet to master the art of 5-wide cars that can fit a minifig Edited October 17, 2014 by imvanya Quote
CityBuilder Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 Those are very realistic sports cars, shame not all of the parts actually exist. Or do they? Quote
imvanya Posted October 18, 2014 Author Posted October 18, 2014 Those are very realistic sports cars, shame not all of the parts actually exist. Or do they? Nope, I am corrupted by LDD But the P1 McLaren set has a snowboard in a new color used as a rear spoiler. So who knows, maybe these parts WILL exist. Quote
imvanya Posted October 18, 2014 Author Posted October 18, 2014 (edited) So here is the first of the three new cars. I was once again looking for new ways to vary my builds, this time - a different style for the canopy. You can download an .lxf here Edited June 10, 2020 by imvanya Quote
imvanya Posted October 18, 2014 Author Posted October 18, 2014 (edited) ...And here are the other two. Frankly, I am not entirely happy with the azure one. Still, after I saw 75912 I decided to post my own take on a Porsche that had been sitting in my MOC folder for quite a while by then. The second car is the one that I came back to after this three-month break. I built the front of the car sometime back in July and for some reason couldn't get back into LDD up until very recently. Anyway, here are links to the .lxfs for the first and the second one. Edited June 10, 2020 by imvanya Quote
imvanya Posted October 22, 2014 Author Posted October 22, 2014 (edited) I have already posted this one, but I rebuilt it to actually fit a minifig. I really like how the bottom curve turned out, as well as the exhausts and the rear section. Here's a link to the .lxf (there actually are several city cars in the file) Edited June 10, 2020 by imvanya Quote
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 Hey you've a super talent! I love ALL of your supersport cars! :wub: Quote
imvanya Posted October 22, 2014 Author Posted October 22, 2014 Thanks a lot, 'LEGO Train 12 Volts'! Quote
Alijster Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 Blimey! I love the contrast in design, and absolutely spectacular shape. Beautiful. Quote
