24-wide intimidating Hot-Rod with a lot of chrome, made for Pick-Up contest
About this creation
I ordered chrome bricks lately... and of course had to use them. The Monster Rod is not only my best and biggest but also my scariest car up to now, in my opinion. It's 24 studs wide, got a big chrome grin, lots of other chrome parts, red interior, a V16 chrome engine (which makes for a great show effect), a lot of SNOT technology and a lot of commitment of myself. I made it in (only!) 2 days, luckily I had nothing else to do, so... yeah, guess how I spent the whole time. This car was also made for a Pick-Up contest, so I hope it won't just be forgotten like other contests I have participated in :'( Smiley-Alarm. Well, before going on with the pics I will offer gold medals for superior patience and attention of those who read this far. One gold medal already goes to Fred Ottens! (ehm, what was the gold medal html?) And before finally going on with the pics, here's the set phrase that needs to be put after each MOC description: I hope you like it and leave some comments!


Smile!

Opening the hood...

Everything in this car is made for show. The engine is no exception.



You might say they're cool or crazy... either way, these seat belts must be VERY safe.

Intense! Great style and photography, Dude!
thanks! And sorry for the very late reply, I have hardly been active around here for several months and didn't have much time for building, too, until these holidays. Btw, I'm also doing photography as a hobby, so I'm always trying to make use of my experience for whatever I take pictures of. Not that professionally, but I guess good enough for good pics of lego models. |

That is so awesome, you've got an amazingly creative spark in you, that is hard work and imagination brought to life in LEGO! its amazing! keep up the great work!
thank you! I can't promise I will because I'm currently busy with school work and learning for A-levels, but I would always love to come back to my lego when I have some free time. As far as I know myself, I will keep up doing some stuff ^^ |

i like your pick up, the front grill with teeth and lots of chrome parts, like the seat belts, are very nice touches, however, i find by looking the 2nd pic, that the hood is a bit too long, some refining would do wonders on it, i m sure your next attempt, will be quite fantastic! good work and good luck!
Thank you, and yes, that might be a good idea. Next time I make a truck like this I will heed your advice. |

This is just weird. THat is EXACTLY why its a 5/5 for me! This is very unique style and the shape is just, very different, It all seems to come together perfectly In this creation however, and those details (i.e the chained seat belts etc) Are all AMAZING and go together flawlessly with this rod :)
GREAT work once again :) |

Wow! This is unusual :) But in a good way. In my mind this is a work of art, unique and stylistic! I absolutely love the chrome features and the combined styles from different types of cars. Incredible work, 5/5 :D |
