I built the Tigre!

 

The bricks I ordered from Bricklink finally arrived and I was able to rebuild the Tigre once again after 16 years and one month.




I also took a picture next to the Speed Champions 76897 Audi Sport Quattro S1 MOC I made which opens the hood and doors - I still want to do a few tweaks before I publish it...

Club (May 2005) - Fun for Four

 4 seats? Check. 2 doors? Check. Openable hood and trunk compartments? Check. Style? Double check! A recent render of the "Club" with coordinated colour scheme (using Stud.io) The "Club" was my attempt at a Car for the "Club" of friends. In the lore of our Lego adventure, this car was used by the baddies who were all very buddy buddy with each other. It has space for 4 minifigs, two wide doors (6 studs long), a hood and a trunk - you can spot the lego hinges in the figures above. The front features a lot of lights, a pair of round lowbeam/high beam facing forward and 4 daytime running lights, as well as an indicator on each corner. There are also indicators on each side of the car acting as the door hinge and on the back of the car, once again in the corner. On the back of the car, there are two tail lights, fog lights next to the indicators and brake lights on the top, as well as a reverse light in the centre just above two exhaust pipes. All the indicato

Tigre (April 2005) the beginning of something wonderful

April 2005, after collecting all the yellow ramps and slopes I found in our collection, I created something that changed my enjoyment of LEGO forever, the Roadster Tigre: A recent render (using Stud.io) There are many places I could start this story: the first time I received a large Lego set (6339 Shuttle Launch Pad in 1995), the first time I acquired a Lego Racers car and some wheels, or even the first time my parents got me a bucket of lego... but this story does not start with legos, but with available technology: Summer 2004 - my first phone with a camera, the ultra-cool Nokia 3200 - besides taking photos you could also change its colour and background through changing the phone's physical background with your own custom drawings! Anyway, back to the point: I started photographing everything I could. It was a very low-resolution camera, but for the time it was my world! It wasn't good enough to take pictures of my drawings, so what else could I use the camera for... Nokia
