Hi and welcome

The admins moderate the designs according to these guidelines: https://studiohelp.bricklink.com/hc/en-us/articles/360042355033-Studio-Gallery-submission-guidelines

Until a design is accepted, it’s “Display Only.”

For your two public designs, you clearly state you’ve copied someone else’s intellectual
property. They’ll stay Display Only.

If you have posted another design, and it has been set to Private, then check
the guidelines link above to understand why.

For more info, contact support: https://www.bricklink.com/v3/help/contact.page

(FYI, Discussions Moderators don’t moderate the designs. I’m just answering
as a member.)

Hello

I am looking for instructions to build a LEGO Rover 25.

I don't think that Lego have ever produced anything like this, the closest
I can find is the Land Rover, and I've been on a search engine hunt for any
MOCs and haven't found anything (and keep getting results for Space Rovers).

Can anyone point me in the right direction please? I have had a play with the
Studio, but I'm finding it a bit out of my skills set.

Thank you

Anyone mind sharing garfield please and thank you. Would love to build.

Thing is, with Garfield, it's going to be a big model, to get all the detail,
or a small one that requires lots of stickers/printed parts. There is no way
to do the character full justice in bricks and plates alone, due to his colouring
and stripes etc.

There are some MOCs out there, and some are very good, but generally these are
the bigger ones - as they can afford to use smaller elements for the markings
etc. Some smaller ones do a fair job, but all are lacking something that makes
Garfield Garfield.

So, what are you after exactly?

I have been working on a fighter jet MOC. The overall design is done for the

I have attached two screen grabs of the nozzles. I would like to know which set-up
people like best.

For jet engine the second with tapered exhaust, the other is more characteristic
of rocket engine design. I like Randy's idea, too.

I prefer the second screen grab where the inside of the dark gray cylinder piece

Fighter jet engines typically have an exhaust system which narrows/constricts
the exhaust coming out. The first screen grab looks more like a rocket engine
nozzle.

Here is a picture I found online of an F16 Exhaust for reference.

I display all my LEGO models on display stands, whether they be original sets
or MOCs. Among them is Lego set 75135 Obi-Wan's Jedi Interceptor. This set
is somewhat heavy toward the front and is difficult to balance on it's stand
because of that. The image below shows the stand type I currently use and an
alternate that I am attempting to design for it.

The black stand on the left is my current standard design. The red one on the
right is the alternate. The problem with the original stand design is that it
has too much flexibility in the column that supports the head. The model is too
wobbly when on the stand and can topple forward with the slightest touch.

I am thinking that I can make a sturdier stand, if I replace the technic connectors
with round 2 x 2 bricks. That should make for a stiffer support column that wouldn't
allow the model to wobble so much. The thing is with the current alternate design,
is that the model would be displayed level with the surface it is standing on.

I would like to have the model tilted upward at the front. Any ideas what I could
add at the top of the stand to give the model a slight upward tilt at it's
front?

Hi Everyone.

First of all, Happy new year to everyone !!

I've been searching online and can't seem to find anything so hoping
the wondaful community on here may be able to help me,

I like the look of those portrait mosaics you can buy through Lego where you
upload a photo and get sent the tiles to make up the image. Being a seller on
here I have accumulated loads of tiles and wondered if anyone knows of a site
that can generate the inventory needed for a photo so I can pick my own bricks
?

42099 Wild Beast MOC

Viewed:

Topic:

Rebuild your LEGO Technic set 42099 into this "Wild Beast" racing
buggy! I believe this is the fastest alternative model yet that you'll find
for this set.

Functions:
- Remote-controlled drive and steering
- Live, rear axle suspension

Worth mentioning aspects:
- It's rear-wheel drive with a gear ratio of 1:1.67 and the two xl-motors
drive one wheel each.
- The front wheels have a positive caster angle for a steering with increased
precision.
- Decent ground clearance (4 studs) for off-roading!
- There is a button on the cabin to turn the PU hub on.
- Batteries can be easily swapped from below the car

More info, a video and the building instructions are all available at rebrickable

A modular pear?

Anyway, I would start by designing a modular building or using an existing
design. I would use one of the smaller buildings with a square footprint, like

10190-1 (Inv) Market Street
1236 Parts, 3 Minifigures, 2007
Sets: Creator: Creator Expert: Modular Buildings Collection: Factory

You can then modify it to your liking, changing the footprint from square to
round and the color to green. LEGO bricks are naturally kind of blocky, so it's
not going to be perfectly smooth, but if you use smaller parts to build the walls,
then it will look less square and more round.

Yep.
You can build a modular to get the size and structure and then the shape is ‘just’
decor, roundish greenish panels attached around it.
You may start with the shape first but you need to get the size right.

Also, if you want to build it, and if you are using Studio (you are, aren’t you?),
start with the BDP4 palette: it has currently (well, 2025) produced bricks.

It seems to me that, among the greens, there’s more smooth parts in Lime (curved
slopes and Technic panels for instance).
Maybe a bit flashy… but then it’s for kids

Or go Yellow.

Yeah, that's the plan. Basically, I am guessing it would be roughly the same
size as one of the smaller sets from the Modular Buildings Collection.

I'd want to build the interior, too. Like the modular buildings, I would
like to be able to take the roof and floors apart to look inside.

Ideas on how to build a giant pear?!

In Denmark, we have a children's story "The Fantastic Tale of the Giant
Pear". It was a book, now it's a movie, too - and my kids LOVE it almost
as much as they love LEGO.

I really want to build it for them, and I have loads of ideas. BUT! I am struggling
to figure out how to best approach achieving the external pear-shape.

Does anyone have any ideas, or have come across something with similar shapes,
that could lead me to a guide or examples?

Perhaps someday, artificial intelligence may be able to produce official LEGO
sets instead of just pictures of knockoff sets. The LEGO Group is already producing
a lot more new sets than they were in the past. Perhaps the increase in productivity
is due in part to artificial intelligence.

Yeah I've seen some of the speed champion type AI generated sets and they
come out pretty good. I'd imagine "lego set" and "type of car"
are straightforward enough.

To me the ai makes it look like a some sort of fake Lego brand. The jibberish
for the set name in like a 4-1 year old bricklin user was making this.

I really
like the optical illusion design on the box of being a 90 degree angle on the
top, and a curve on the bottom!

AI has a long way to go.

But it’s still amazing that it can even make something that “close”.
