Rodomonte Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 This is my attempt at recreating the Nissan IDx concept, at minifig scale. I was going for capturing the overall feel of the real car; it's tough to be more accurate at this size. And my philosophy with builds is that you have to be able to play with them, so pieces that aren't secure for the sake of aesthetics is unacceptable. I'm sure that's been debated, but it always irks me to see a build that falls apart the moment you pick it up, as cool as it may otherwise look. For anyone wondering what the actual concept car looks like: Quote
SeanM Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 Nice attempt! By the way, I really like your city style vehicles. Quote
lightningtiger Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 Great copy of the real thing 'Rodomonte', Brick On Drive On ! Quote
LEGO Guy Bri Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 Nice job Rodomonte! Those are some pretty radical, aggressive looking cars, I've never seen or heard of before. You great job MOCing them Quote
Freddie Posted February 2, 2014 Posted February 2, 2014 I agree wholly that it is difficult to recreate a car correctly when building in minifig-scale, and that it is more about capturing the essence of the car you're aiming for. If I had known of the Nissan IDx before, I would definetly identify your MOC as it, if not heavily based on it, at least. I think it looks great, and the only thing I might've changed, would be to use white slopes w/ cutouts (92946), to reduce the depth of the B-pillars, to closer approach the IDx' design. Right now it looks closer to the original GT-R, and that is not a bad thing. Quote
