Im back, and with Avenge..wait..no..just two more creations.

Post by Gunney » Wed Sep 16, 2009 9:38 pm

Heh heh, Back With Avengeance is a cool phrase. But anywho, got the
AirCav Thumper along with the first Enforcer Transport with suitable specs for space ^_^, a G-Whirlwind.

Heres the Thumper, nicknamed for the obnoxious pilots who keep thumping one another while they're to fly.....What? Don't believe me? Take a look on how close they're sitting!

Crew: 1 Pilot, 1 Co-Pilot, 1 Door Gunner. Optional 3 passengers
Armament: Twin Laser Turret, Door Mounted HMG, Three Blaster Pistols
(Incase things get dicy and an emergency landing is forced)


G-Whirlwind, or Green Whirlwind thanks to its rather large salvo of PlasNitro missiles (The name of PlasNitro is copyright to its respective owners of Enforcers. Remember, if it isn't Enforced, you need more PlasNitro!)

Crew: 1 Pilot, 2 Gunners. Optional: 5 Passengers
Armament: Two Laser Turrets, 8 PlasNitro missiles.
Passenger Armament: Two Rocket Launchers, 4 Blaster Pistols.
*Warning* Peach Batallion is currently station in this G-Whirlwind. Get over it :wink:



Note: Yea, I know, they're still rather large and blocky. But give me some credit, they're my first solid attempts at making respectable helicopters and transports. If any of you have seen my other prototypes at air, you'd see how sucky they were.

But hey, 3 air models successful out of 7 aint bad, Specially for a Tank Nut :P

Same drill as usual: All comments welcome. Even the stupid ones. You know which ones they are.
Remember, there are no such thing as Athiests in foxholes. There's also no such things as foxes in foxholes.

you need to do 3/4 from above shots, to give an overall impresion or you vehicles. take shots at 0 degrees 45 degrees and elevated above model, and then rear, it help get the total perspective on a vehicle

It's not "I'm back with avengeance." It's "I'm back with a vengeance."

OBJECTION! it used to be avengeance but that is no longer used (being obsolete) in favour of plane old vengeance. I'm only saying since Blitzen doesn't stop by to keep us all in line anymore.

Oh, shit. Sorry Gunny. I like the second one best also. As far as looks go, mehh. If it gets the troops where they need to be without blowing up during a battle then it's all good.

I think if he likes them quick and dirty, so what? Oh, dear...

*Prepares for Innuendo*

Anyway, if Rainbow timmy-mobiles are what float your boat, so what? Just don't post them as MOCs in the armoury and bricks.

i think you could do better on the second one if you switch were you have uyour forward bocks, ie switch the windshield and the line of bricks over it, im assuming you didnt do this due to having a pilot sitting as farforward into the windshield as possible..

helis just fine the way it be

Natalya, heh heh, you got served.

J+B, I was waiting for a stupid comment from you.

And on the color of it, well, Im running low on certain parts and what not. I would stick with all black, but I don't have all black plates anymore. I kinda used them up on other projects.

Also, Soap, Theres a reason why I don't post in the Armory. I have yet to have anything in my possession I feel that has earned a spot to be placed in the armory. They're ALL always being constantly changed, improved...etc. etc.

Now if they were on par with some of the armies I've seen, then I'd feel comfortable. But as for now, imma' just place what I build, getting feedback, and using said feedback to keep improving my designs.
But, yea, usually get some really...really..really dumb comments.
*rubs temples* I am starting to lose faith in the brick building community at large.

i think the models would be better apreciated, if they could be seen clearly. Besides, always post stuff yeah 90% of feed back might be crap but every once in a while a nugget is there to be found.

the only thing i would change about the helicopter is to stretch it out to loose some of its squareness go to a more chnook frame, besides then you can put more weapons on it

Duly noted Strana. Though Chinook...heh that'd defenitely be a design challenge for me. But eh I'll give it a shot.

A little boxy but the whirlwind could go places.


SOAP: This is a forum about lego wargaming, not quality of MOCS. If someone want's to post a bad MOC it's their choice.

Chopper needs bigger rotor blades, other than that, the blocky-ness doesn't suit my tastes. but those are my tastes. It's a fair start, but I think there could be much improvement, Keep at it.
