Werlu Ulcur Posted December 16, 2013 Posted December 16, 2013 I wanted a pumper for Legoville, but it had to be very different from "regular" City fire engines, so I thought of experimenting with an eight-wide concept: I draw this on LDD way before I had Legoville, so though I'm very pleased with the end result, eight-wide is too wide for regular road plates . But since I'm MOCing my fire station, it's a keeper . Quote
timmyc1983 Posted December 16, 2013 Posted December 16, 2013 This is really nice!! I think you need something big for that purpose, so although it might be too big for roadplates, I think it's the correct scale for the purpose it serves... There's so many really cool details in it too!! The water pump and all those little cupboards and hidey holes Great work and happy building Quote
lightningtiger Posted December 16, 2013 Posted December 16, 2013 Now that's a fire truck......I it......though it's more for an airport, so there you go......airport next for your city 'Werlu Ulcur' and Brick On ! Quote
Jody Meyer Posted December 16, 2013 Posted December 16, 2013 this turned into a thing of beauty, looks great. be interested in the ldd file. Quote
Werlu Ulcur Posted December 16, 2013 Author Posted December 16, 2013 Thanks guys! I really liked how it came out. And lightningtiger got it right: my inspiration was exactly those airport fire engines (like the to-be-released 60061), I love the looks of those trucks! Quote
gazumpty Posted December 16, 2013 Posted December 16, 2013 Very nice work :) I love the style as I am also a fan of the Airport tenders. Great job! Quote
ER0L Posted December 16, 2013 Posted December 16, 2013 Great vehicle, the presentation is very nice, too. As a crash tender, 8w is a very suitable scale, I guess (although it will be quite hard to find a plane that can go with it ... ) I especially like the shaping of the front and that it fits 4 figs. The details, especially that water cannon, are very nice, too. The whole thing looks very playable. Keep it up! Quote
eurotrash Posted December 16, 2013 Posted December 16, 2013 Excellent job! The scale is perfect and it has great detailing. Quote
Werlu Ulcur Posted December 16, 2013 Author Posted December 16, 2013 Thanks everyone! One of my priorities when designing a MOC like this is to make it swooshable, so that my kids can play around with it without the risk of it falling apart. I also try to cram in as much "features" as I can, so realism sometimes gets set aside. Quote
