Upgrade (?)

After looking at my old huey for a while I realized the landing skids were pretty terrible. Here is an update.

This will be sold/auctioned(?) in creations for charity in november. The model will include door gun(z!) and four crew members.

Yes, my photostream is getting very repetitive. If you're bored I can suggest looking at this or this or this or this or this instead.

(no real relevance to that list, just some things I've taken an interest to in the last week or so)

    Ooh...that's nice! Those technic pins are a nice midpoint between .3mm bars and 1x1 round pieces.

    I like your new photos. Want to take a shot of the skids on their own and submit it to LEGO Techniques?

    And I'm happy enough with the repetition.

    yeah, I only wish they came in other colors. I need to keep that piece in mind more often for bars of all sorts though.

    Thanks! I'll get on that skids picture. Don't get excited with the repetition too early though, you ain't seen nothin yet!

    You could still use the half-pin sizes. That gives you the option of dark and light gray, white and blue. You just end up with more of the 'ribbed' look with the half-pins.

    you should put a M60 or a minigun in the door.

    True, the half pins and 3/4(?) pins would work, but like you said, I think it would look a little too ribbed.

    and white and blue!

  16. gambort (32 months ago | reply)
