Quickie of the week #6: Work in Progress ,counting down to Ultra Magnus!

I'm currently putting finishing touches to Ultra Magnus. Since it's been a while since I update my blog, here's a tiny sneakpeek of this MOC so far.

Do read on to view some pretty interesting photos on how I engineer the leg transformation. 

Quickie of the Week #5: Dilemma! Dilemma!

Current work in progress is 90% done now, albeit some parts of the right color require a visit to bricklink.com soon.  I'm now at a crossroad. Which design should I go for ?

Quickie of the Week #4: I'm in c2age & Work in Progress

Today is pretty eventful. I've just took some of my LEGO creations to be exhibited under Transmy booth in c2age event in Kuala Lumpur, which is happening right now and tomorrow . For those who are nearby , here's the only chance to see my LEGO Transformers in the flesh (the other option would be paying me a visit to my humble house =)

For those who are smart enough to follow me on Instagram (why aren't you already?) , you will have the privilege to get hints on what I am currently building with LEGO.

I would like to share my progress with you so far, especially when I managed to tackle challenging hurdles. Here is one fine note-worthy example:

Unlike most LEGO TF I built before (where I have to find ways to tuck in the robot arms inside the alternate mode snugly ),  this one is different. Now I have excess vehicle part to form the arms and I have to find ways to "compact" them up.

Quickie of the Week #3: Work in Progress (Halted!)

Before I proceed to build something, I usually do a quick inventory check on the parts I have and made a rough guesstimate whether they're enough to get me by the whole process without interruption. And 90% of the time, I managed to get by , finding workaround building techniques if there are certain parts I lacked  that hindered my progress.

But this time around, I failed. I REALLY need certain specialised parts and and there's NO EXCEPTION nor workaround to "emulate" them. So during this "downtime" of not devotedly building my MOC , perhaps any of you would like to see what I'm up to lately? =)

As you can see, the placeholder yellow hinge is meant to be black . And there's a few more parts which I need to improve this MOC. I'm taking a 3 week break before the required parts arrive ( or maybe I start a quick , simple new project )

Quickie of the week #1: MOC teaser

I don't usually post updates on my WIP (work in progress) because I'm a person of few words.  So its pretty hard for me to describe my WIP in details and would channel most of my free time to keep on building and building. And I don't think many would be interested to know my WIP details either. And usually let the photos do the talking and that usually means the finalization of my MOC.

However.... I'm more and more inclined to post teaser to what you all gonna see soon. So now I'm starting this new segment called "Quickie" (and it's not necessarily on a weekly basis) where I post a single photo of what I'm up to lately. So there =)

Speculate away fellas!
