Thomas W. has reimagined one of his first mocs into this wicked Space VTOL. It's got all the required features: beefy, rotatable engines, missile launchers, two kinds of blasters, even a nifty awacs dish on top. Thomas calls it a scout ship, but it looks like it won't be needing any reinforcements. Awesome!
This VTOL (vertical takeoff and landing) vehicle by Brixnspace is an amazing blend of Osprey, Apache and badassness. It's got just enough real-world inspiration and aesthetic to give it a believability, and enough creativity to make it captivating. The color combinations, proportions, weaponry and smooth lines all add up to a very formidable aircraft.
This looks right out of a James Cameron movie. It's part apache, part harrier, part drop ship and all badass. I especially love the "remove before flight" tags on the weapons. I'm not sure if it's purist LEGO, but I don't care, it's a cool detail.
If you were at BrickCon you certainly saw HUB-14, a large scale collaborative build. This awesome little VTOL by porschecm2 was built for it, and just shows the level of skill and attention to detail that went into it.
This cool MOC caught my eye. There's no real description but it's clearly a VTOL support ship. Wonderful angles on this, giving it a utilitarian yet sleek aesthetic. I dig the big flat surfaces broken up by just the right amount of detail. The ground vehicles are pretty cool too. Nice photograph too, the background really works well. Nice work Anto-Nio.
There's just something so fascinating about a vertical take-off and landing vehicle. Like it's real-world counterpart the Osprey, this little ship can utilize landing zones inaccessible by it's fixed-wing brothers. I like the angles on this, as well as the engine nacelles. It's a simple model, but strikes a good balance between utility and fantasy.
