SearchFunction Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 (edited) ER0L suggested to me, that I should do an update here on a particular car of mine, so I might as well give a short presentation of everything not yet shown here. Low 6 wide with space for minifigs http://mocpages.com/moc.php/383727 This car uses panels to get a low profile. Instructions on how to build it is in the link. A white roadster http://mocpages.com/moc.php/383515 A design around the 11209 wheels. Coupe design http://mocpages.com/moc.php/382826 A design working both as a coupe and as a cabriolet, full guide in the link. Vans http://mocpages.com/moc.php/380663 A basic van design A full size family car http://mocpages.com/moc.php/379911 Longest 4 seater I have ever built. Coupe & Cabriolet http://mocpages.com/moc.php/374882 Another multi-purpose design. Super compact http://mocpages.com/moc.php/385423 The opposite of the fullsize car. Police Interceptor Mark II http://mocpages.com/moc.php/372876 An upgrade of an earlier car I made 4x4s http://mocpages.com/moc.php/370628 I didn't have any 4x4s. Now I do . Centerengine car http://mocpages.com/moc.php/370584 A mix of Lamborghini and Porsche 4 seater, 4th version http://mocpages.com/moc.php/343485 Not sure if I posted this already, in any case, this is the most recent version. 5 wide with full minifig http://mocpages.com/moc.php/370802 Taking advantage of a special piece, a very low 5 wide can be built. Instructions partly explained in link. 64 foot (stud) Yacht http://mocpages.com/moc.php/373118 Had to have one of these. Home Sweet Home http://mocpages.com/moc.php/384814 A typical 1950s Cape Cod like design. Fully detailed interior. And that about sums it up I think. There are LDD files for every creation if you want to copy something or want to check out building techniques. Edited April 10, 2014 by SearchFunction Quote
sithewok Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 That's some impressive work. I especially like that 5 wide classic car - looks great! Quote
TheLazyChicken Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 Great job! Those cars look wonderful! Keep up the great work! Quote
lightningtiger Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 Very nice work 'SF'.......I like most of those cars the second one the white open top....screams modern VW Beetle to me ! Mind if I take some inspiration from your work to build some vehicles in my Aussie town for a big show next month ? Brick On 'SF' ! Quote
LEGO Guy Bri Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 Very nice work SF. Some great cars, but I love the yacht! Been wanting to build one myself Quote
L@go Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 Some very nice ones here, I can see why ER0L urged you to share them. I really like the top one, it reminds me of an old Ford Taunus, and that orange coupé/convertible design is lovely. Well done! Quote
The Dutch Guy Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 Great looking cars (and home) there SF. The Centerenigine and white roadstar caught my eye en look very pleasing. Quote
Only Sinner Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 The yacht is very good looking, but it was the 4x4s that really grabbed my attention. I also like the lowness of some of your cars. Quote
jimmynick Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 These are all nice! I particularly like the 5-wide and the large family car, as well as the yacht. The family car reminds me so some degree of the Volvo XC70. Could the yacht do with some more windows in the side of the hull? Keep building nice cars, boats and houses! Quote
SearchFunction Posted April 12, 2014 Author Posted April 12, 2014 Mind if I take some inspiration from your work to build some vehicles in my Aussie town for a big show next month ? Go ahead, thats the main reason I put the LDD files on my page . Could the yacht do with some more windows in the side of the hull? I think any windows on the lower hull would interfere with the interior. I used one of the sides for cabinets: Quote
Tom Jurassic Posted April 12, 2014 Posted April 12, 2014 Beautiful work, and all the LDD files you included are extremely considerate! Definitely plan to make some of those Police Interceptors for my Superheroes Collection! Are you going to produce more Police vehicles at some point? Quote
ER0L Posted April 14, 2014 Posted April 14, 2014 Great to see all your fine vehicles (and that lovely house) here, too! :thumbup: What I think is really important especially about your cars is that they show how you can build relatively small cars which are considerably low but fit at least two whole minifigs side by side, even in a 6w scheme. It's not so easy to achieve that - you sometimes have to think of completely new techniques like using panels as underbody. Anyhow it's a great collection with a wide variety of shapes. We can learn much from this. Quote

Definitely plan to make some of those Police Interceptors for my Superheroes Collection! Are you going to produce more Police vehicles at some point? If you can make use of any of the LDD files, I´d love to see what you can come up with . I think I am inclined to just do regular versions of any future cars since its cheaper and easier to do (aquire the parts). Could do LDD police versions though, those are free .

We can learn much from this. The panel idea from the first car is one I´d like to see explored some more. Piece no. 59349, 1x6x5 wall element could possibly be used as the base in a larger car. Quote
Ray Oliver Posted April 14, 2014 Posted April 14, 2014 Love the cape cod, but then I am biased as I own one. Quote
