I've been wanting to build a ship for a while so recently I decided to start building the Kirov, A Kirov-class cruiser built during the interwar period.

Thats my current progress so far, A long way to go but a good start so far.

MOC: Mini Rolls Royce Meteor.

 Still not 100% happy with it but can't think of how to improve it right now so calling it done for now. Second is a Rolls Royce Meteor,  A V12 engine developed from the Rolls Royce Merlin aero engine.

MOC: 86 -Eighty Six- Juggernaut WIP Part 1.

 I recently decided to build the Juggernaut from 86 -Eighty Six- so I thought I'd post some WIP images of my current progress so far.



As you can see from the next couple of images they are different as I had to finally switch from LDD to Bricklink Studio 2.0 as LDD just doesn't have the a lot of the newer parts.




And thats my current progress so far, Still a few things to change and improve I think but getting there. :)

MOC: Technic H-24 Engine.

Hello again everyone.

Been a while since I last posted however I'm back with just a fairly small MOC this time, A Working H-24 Engine. Been meaning to post this for a while but only just got around to doing it, Not much to say about it really, It's a fairly simple design for a H-24 24 cylinder engine. For the most part it was inspired by the Napier Sabre engine although it's not a complete model of it as you can see, Just the actual core mechanical part, A generic H-24 engine I suppose. I have plans to put this into a MOC I'm planning on making at some point, Maybe when I finish the current one I'm working on. Anyway, on with the pictures:




I also made it in LDD so I would know how to rebuild it in the future.

A video of it being directly powered by a PF M motor.
The .lxf file can be downloaded from here if you want to see hows it's put together or anything:

Thanks for looking and I hope you liked it. :)

MOC: Technic B-25 Mitchell


Hello everyone,

Well it's been over a year since I last posted here however I've finally finished my B-25 I've been working on for just over a year and a half. It's had several major rebuilds of certain sections since the WIP topic I posted but It's finally at a point where I can call it finished and start on something else.
Some basic info first, It's wingspan is roughly 3ft (around 92cm), Fuselage length is about 2ft 6in (around 76cm), It has a XL motor for each engine. so that makes two, It has two M motors powering the landing gear and it also has working flaps, ailerons, rudders and elevators (All controlled though the control column and gear wheel in the cockpit.). The top turret can rotate 360 degrees as well. As you may notice in the pictures below I ended up not being able to fit the battery box into the actual model as there just wasn't enough room for it, As it turned out though it came in handy as one of the annoying flaws with this model is it won't actually sit on it's landing gear, It just falls backwards so the battery box was just the right hight to prop it up. I spent a long time thinking about the problem but couldn't come up with a solution for this particular model so it's just something I'll have to keep in mind for future aircraft with tricycle landing gear. Anyway, on with the pictures.

Thanks for reading and hopefully the next LEGO MOC will come a little quicker than this one did. ;)
