About this creation

Inspiried by Peteris Sprogis' recently posted (and rather excellent) efforts for the "Creator Set of Doom", I set to last night to built my first alternate from 6743.

With the image of his Tailwing MOC burned into my retina, I somehow managed to piece together this coupé of sorts last night while Holby City was on the TV.

The rear end is a nightmare, it's fragile, visually front heavy and too long by a couple of studs. However, I did manage to put the steering wheel in!

In the cold light of day, I can see there is room for improvement and refinement, so I will not be defeated by this set. It shall return :)

great to see You have regained the spirit of building with this set. Green Dog- that is a spot on name for this car because the dynamic lines of the coupe look like it's ready to run fast at any moment >

Very good, I don't think the front end is too heavy it looks great, the back end is too light. For that style the back should be the same height as the front.

I've been off the Lego for a while. I odered the Rescue Robot set from Amazon yesterday at £6.99. Might be interesting as it'll be a move away from vehicles. The motorcycle looks like a tricky set to use, good luck!

Quoting MortalSwordsman . Great to see a post from you. The front looks excellent. Good luck with this set :). I am hoping to get the new orange bike today - I think that might also be a hard set to make an alternate. Well we do like challenge.

Looks way better than original model from the set, thank you for providing an excellent alternative.
