Hubernator Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 Using the amazing tutorial done by Brother-Captain Stark, I decided to try my hand at one myself - on a program ;) And here's the result: http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg17/Hubernator/LDDScreenShot1.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solid Zaku Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 Do I smell the Lego Digital Designer? By the way, for those not in the know, you can use the LDD to create the Warhound as per Brother Captain Stark's fantastic design, and then use it to send in a customized order for all of the pieces needed to create it.

Yes that is indeed LDD :) However, you have to make sure you're using parts from one kit (which is impossible to be honest), otherwise you can't send it off for a price. Fussy monkeys :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Mike Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Lego Warhound? Awesome! Looks really nice. Any plans to actually make this, or is it jsut a concept? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fussy monkeys :P Well, you could always take it apart again, and then export the different parts to different files, according to the sets that they come from. Then, just order each file seperately, and you'll get all of the bits that you need :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubernator Posted April 18, 2009 Author Share Posted April 18, 2009 Lego Warhound? Awesome! Looks really nice. Any plans to actually make this, or is it jsut a concept? I'm very much tempted to make one over the Summer Holidays :D I'm pretty sure I have the parts to do so, so it's a thought :) Well, you could always take it apart again, and then export the different parts to different files, according to the sets that they come from. Then, just order each file seperately, and you'll get all of the bits that you need :) That would take me a loooong time... a very long time... :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Sasha Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Between my 35yr old Lego collection, and my son's addition, we've probably got enough in parts, but not in coherent colours. Will I have to rename my army 'The Emperors Abstract Cubist Expressionists'? Nice work though. Anyone done a price comparison between Lego and FW? (obvious advantage to Lego in terms of weapon swapping!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(obvious advantage to Lego in terms of weapon swapping!) lol your call matey :) You'll be an inspiration to artists everywhere ;) As for prices, I would hazard a guess that the Lego one would be cheaper. I think Sharp said the actual model is around 12 & 1/2 inches tall, and Lego have made much bigger... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cathar the great Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 So what does the Designer say, how much would it cost? Oh and since I am using the Designer as well, could you probably send me the file? I started several attempts with the wretched thing but couldn't really work out more difficult designs... Drop me a PM if you want ^^ Cheers, Cathar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubernator Posted April 20, 2009 Author Share Posted April 20, 2009 Well I still haven't got a price because the parts were from different sets. It'll take me ages to work out a price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubernator Posted May 1, 2009 Author Share Posted May 1, 2009 Well I've decided to resurrect this to show off this: http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg17/Hubernator/LDDScreenShot2.png Custom Plasma Blastgun. Is it accurate enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Captain Sharp Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 Oooh... I likes it! Much better than my design. That looks great. I can see that you've also streamlined a lot of the construction of the arms. Good for you, they look great. I made those at the end of a frenetic day of building in time for a Apocalypse tournament, so there's plenty of room for improvement. So do you think you'll order it?

Hubernator Posted May 2, 2009 Author Share Posted May 2, 2009 @Sharp: It was your design I used to make it :P IN places I had to compromise and that was annoying to be honest. I'd like to order it if the sodding program would mark a price out regardless of where the parts came from <_< I'll make one instead :D @Firenze: Because Lego rocks :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdeptusTerminautus Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 Why the lego... Nice work though i have to admit. because a lego warhound doesn't cost 288 pounds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firenze Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 Neither does my plasticard titan. At the moment it is less than a fiver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubernator Posted May 2, 2009 Author Share Posted May 2, 2009 Either way it's a Titan, doesn't really matter what material it's made from. So long as it kicks ass ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Captain Sharp Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 Neither does my plasticard titan. At the moment it is less than a fiver. I built the original LEGO Warhound because it was fun and creative. If it's not for you, fine, but know that everybody enjoys the hobby in a different way. A plasticard Warhound looks really cool and I have one, but I enjoy pulling out my LEGO Warhound for games much more because people always get a laugh out of it, and if they're LEGO fans they love to check out exactly how I built it. I didn't build the LEGO Warhound in any sense of seriousness. I did it because I enjoy LEGO and I enjoy 40k, and decided it'd be fun to combine the two.

Firenze Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 I was grinning when I typed it. Lego is awesome. I use to build ideas for new vehicles and knight titans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
