Some ideas for minifig cockpits, some ideas borrowed, some new, all for the taking!
About this creation
This page contains several ideas (some borrowed, some new) for a range of minifig scale cockpits. As a kid, I found that many of my MOCs started from the minifig out - I'd build as many instrument displays, joysticks and levers around a minifig chair and then build some type of craft around it. I'd even employ a few SNOT* techniques, long before I even knew what SNOT was (all hail the mighty headlight brick! =) So here are a couple of ideas I've spotted on Brickshelf and a couple of my own. I'll be adding more to this page so if you're stuck for inspiration, bookmark this and check back. I'll try an update as often as I can - if I don't, slap me with an email and I might get busy. ;) Of course, with all these ideas, please feel free to borrow or steal! The multiple angles are to assist in re-creating them, so if you do, I'd be really interested to see it in your MOC so email a pic or web address to me or in your review!

Very good. I too have always been one put tons of detail into the cockpit. I will have to steal some of these ideas for my use in the future. ; )
Type 1 is my favorite of these designs. |

I might implement some of these if you don't mind. By the way, what is SNOT? Don't mean to sound ignorant, but I honestly don't know... |
