Eraman Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 That's a nice excavator. Love the blue. H Hmm, i think it is purple...or my monitor is not so good Quote
legomuppet9 Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 Technic 5x11 panels only come in these colours (from bricklink) White (1470) Light Bluish Gray (758) Black (3890) Red (149) Orange (1273) Yellow (3813) Green (2106) Dark Blue (168) Blue (606) So I think its your monitor, also, doc has edited the picture slightly weirdly Quote
Doc_Brown Posted July 11, 2014 Author Posted July 11, 2014 yes my photography was off, and the pics were overexposed, hehe. For WIP I left them as they are, hehe. Hmm, i think it is purple...or my monitor is not so good Sorry. Your monitor is fine. Quote
Erik Leppen Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 This thing is genius, wonderful job. Looks like it could be a set (so perfectly in the spirit of the competition). Quote
Doc_Brown Posted July 21, 2014 Author Posted July 21, 2014 (edited) This thing is genius, wonderful job. Looks like it could be a set (so perfectly in the spirit of the competition). Thank you very much! Out of all the mocs I have made this felt like the most likely to be a real set, hehe. Heres a vid of it in action, and I will be updating the first post to include promo pic and updated pictures as well. Edited July 21, 2014 by Doc_Brown Quote
Rockbrick Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 this is far superior than any mini official set ever made.... I take my hat off Quote
grum64 Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 (edited) Fantastic! Who'd have though you could incorporate so much playability in something 200 pieces or less and it look this good This and all the other brilliant entries means this is turning out to be one heck of a completion Edited July 21, 2014 by grum64 Quote
Doc_Brown Posted July 21, 2014 Author Posted July 21, 2014 Thanks guys! I really appreciate the nice comments. I counted the large turntable as 1 part is that correct? 2 parts only apply to the small turntable right. Looking at the Inv of the logging truck it shows the small turntable in 2 parts and the large in 1. Quote
dhc6twinotter Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Looks great Doc! Blue color is great! Thanks guys! I really appreciate the nice comments. I counted the large turntable as 1 part is that correct? 2 parts only apply to the small turntable right. Looking at the Inv of the logging truck it shows the small turntable in 2 parts and the large in 1. That is what I would assume as well. One part for large turntable and two parts for small. Quote
Doc_Brown Posted July 21, 2014 Author Posted July 21, 2014 That is what I would assume as well. One part for large turntable and two parts for small. Sweet! Parts list is done, that took a long time! I sure hope that's 200, nearly 3am now, gotta go to bed, haha. parts by Doc_brown1, on Flickr Quote
Appie Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Great model! Love the use of ropes and the video shows what the model can do very well. Since it was late for you, I counted the parts on your image, it is 200 if the turntable counts as 1. If the turntable causes issues with the contest rules you could remove one of the 2x4 tiles? Easiest fix I reckon and it hardly affects the looks. Quote
Jim Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Very nice Doc! Although I didn't expect anything less I noticed your pictures are bit purple. Especially the ones showing the model. Is it me or did you photoshop a bit too much? I would recommend detuning a bit so it reflects the actual blue more Quote
Omikron Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 (edited) Camera sensor probably was affected by: Since both video and photo do not represent actual color in same manner. Edited July 21, 2014 by Omikron Quote
theozboy Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Very nice model, I reckon this one will be getting my vote. Playability looks spot on Quote
jantjeuh Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Oh man, it's going to be so hard to find a winner. So many great entries. Really one of the best contests I've seen on EB so far. Quote

Although I didn't expect anything less I noticed your pictures are bit purple. Especially the ones showing the model. Is it me or did you photoshop a bit too much? I would recommend detuning a bit so it reflects the actual blue more Thanks Jim, TBH I think my monitor is a bit off, but I will give it another try, still got to do the promo pic anyways. Also my LED lights means I sliightly over expose and that seems to be washing out the blue, and correcting it I have gone over board a bit, showing purple. Quote
Doc_Brown Posted July 22, 2014 Author Posted July 22, 2014 LOL, skylight filter on the camera and shooting under LED lights doesn't work too well when your subject is the colour BLUE! What do you guys think is this accurate blue for you? I don't trust my monitor any more, haha. Quote
OzBen Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 That's more like it. Looks blue on my iphone As for the model Garbage..... Zero out of 10 :-P Kidding, I know where my vote is going :-) Quote
2LegoOrNot2Lego... Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 This build is amazingly good!!! :thumbup: Quote
Doc_Brown Posted July 22, 2014 Author Posted July 22, 2014 This build is amazingly good!!! :thumbup: Thanks man! That's good to know. I guess I will have to rebuild and take new pics again then. This build is amazingly good!!! :thumbup: Thank you very much! Quote
Omikron Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 (edited) Doc_Brown, I assume that you are using either TFT LCD or perhaps a notebook? Edited July 22, 2014 by Omikron Quote
