He insists the guy, he is on track in all the competitions of the moment and it is for the contest Wheels of Justice organized by FBTB that he designed this original BatMobile.

Personally, I like this MOC which makes an original use of certain parts (I let you zoom on the photos of his blog to find out which ones) and I have a weakness for the cockpit which I find very retro-modern. The BatMobile can accommodate a minifigure and the canopy opens like a real ...

Finally, there is a little Mad Max side to this BatMobile. Good luck to LEGOManiac on this contest.

There are MOCs that stand out for their appearance clean, clean, smooth. 2 Much Caffeine proposes here a realization in this vein, where despite a reduced scale, one has the impression to be entitled to a MOC in full details.

The effect of snow / ice / mountain sides studless is excellent in simplicity, the ion gun and the generator are recognizable at first glance and the two AT-ATs although a little clumsy for my taste dress the scene.

I especially appreciate the incredible simplicity of the hangar door. In the end, a very beautiful MOC which, with carefully chosen pieces, reconstitutes a scene immediately recognizable despite the format micro scale.

The title got you reading these lines, so let's go: Imagine a set containing 99 Stormtroopers and 1 Black-Chrome Darth Vader ... Recognize that would be tempting, especially when you look at the image above ...

Stop dreaming, this is just the second great idea of ​​the day on Cuusoo which definitely surprises me today.

On the other hand, I would not comment on the speech of the guy who posted this idea on Cuusoo : He is scattered in conjectures on the fact that if his idea was really published in the form of a set by LEGO, he would donate his 1% of royalties to the victims of Fukushima ...

Although I am always sensitive to humanitarian actions, I do not necessarily adhere to this kind of awareness technique, however sincere it is ... So I want my Stormtroopers, the rest is none of my business.

Go take a look at this project at this address and decide for yourself if you should support it, anyway there must be a 0,00001% chance that someday some guy from LEGO will take a look. And even less that I can get my bucket of Stormtroopers for a decent price ....

A nice MOC from Nick roth with this scene where Gandalf arrives by cart in Hobbiton, a village where Bilbo, Frodo and Samwise reside ....

This MOC is remarkable for the design and density of the vegetation and the design of the tree largely inspired by the work of Derfel cadarn. The minifigs presented are arbitrary but the scene resumes well the magical side of that of the film, where the calm and the greenery contrast with the events which will follow ...

To see more about this MOC, it's on the flickr gallery de Nick roth that it happens.

I have often criticized Lego cuusoo for the ambient disorder which reigns there and for the lack of moderation of the entries which are deposited there by AFOLs in search of various and varied demands.

I came across despite everything an initiative which seems interesting to me and proposed by napachon. It concerns the creation of new pieces to meet certain very specific uses, in particular with regard to the creation in SNOT (Stud Not On Top), which has become fashionable in recent years. Criticized by some, SNOT brings LEGO constructions closer to the world of the model. This technique allows a more consistent finish of some models and allows the creation of truly flat surfaces when the reproduction of certain environments requires it.

LEGO purists, a little nostalgic for a time when pieces were not as numerous in the manufacturer's range, often remain very attached to the presence of studs on their models, as a claim of belonging to a universe of pieces designed to fit together, and formalized by the presence of these growths on the surface of the models.

But today, the imagination of MOCeurs goes further and further into the realism of reproduction and new pieces allow ever more successful construction and finishing techniques. SNOT makes it possible to finalize these creations in a visually very homogeneous way. With this technique the MOCeurs no longer seek to create with LEGO, but to create with LEGO to obtain an object that becomes a model or a reproduction and whose realism is taken to the extreme.

Napachon presents some ideas for parts that could improve the use of SNOT with for example a part with studs on both sides. It also presents some other ideas for parts that would allow a more realistic design and less constraining in terms of shape and final thickness with the wings of planes as an example.

I am not a talented MOCeur, nor a genius designer. But I think the idea developed in this Cuusoo project deserves to be taken into account and debated. LEGO also regularly offers new parts to meet specific construction needs. If an AFOL does the same, it deserves to be considered.
