Got back on the Novvember bandwagon this year, and built a Vic Viper out of 75218 X-Wing Starfighter.

MOC: Mars Drilling Platform
When I heard that this year’s Lego City sets were going to Mars, I got in the mood to build some near-future space stuff. This vehicle is a mobile drilling platform used to drill into Martian ice to extract water.

Each wheel has suspension to conquer the rough Martian terrain.

MOC: Wakanda Design Group Black Viper (Novvember 2016)
The Black Viper is a jet created by the Wakanda Design Group for stealth operations. (Built for Novvember 2016 out of parts from 76047 Black Panther Pursuit.)
MOC: Bonesaw Drone Tank
Here’s an alternate model I built from the Oxford Sherman set. It’s a futuristic drone tank.
MOC: Mega Bloks Call of Duty: Black Ops II Escort Drone
MB has made most of the drones from Call of Duty: Black Ops II into sets, with the exception of the Escort Drone. I decided to try my hand at making one.
I don’t have any Mega Bloks propellers small enough to work as a tail rotor, so this drone is out of control. (Just like all the US drones at the end of the game.)
Ready for deployment!
I have more pictures in my Mediafire gallery: Link.
Novvember 2015 Build
It’s Novvember again, and that means it’s time to build another Vic Viper! I don’t have a lot to say about this build, so I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves.
Apocryphal Blacktron Utility Truck
Recently I got a trans-yellow windshield from a Bricklink order, and decided to use it to build a Blacktron MOC. The back of the truck can carry different modules. I built a satellite dish one and a fuel tank one. More pictures are on my Mediafire: Link.
3D Printed Attack on Titan 3D Maneuvering Gear
We could make anything for the final project for my Solidworks class, so I decided to make a minifig compatible version of the 3D Maneuvering Gear used by the soldiers in Attack on Titan.
I designed the swords, blade boxes, and harness. Here’s how it’s assembled.
The swords fit into the blade boxes on the side.
A rear view. 1X1 studs attach to the center harness to make the jets/wire spools/whatever.
Minifigs can grip the gas canisters on the blade boxes.
For my first time designing and printing a minifig accessory, I thought this went pretty well. The final print does have some quirks, however. Everything came out a little bit larger than I was expecting, so the parts have a much tighter fit than they should. (That’s why I attached Best-Lock studs to the harness instead of LEGO studs. I didn’t want to break or warp actual LEGO parts.) The studs on the harness and “reverse studs” on the blade boxes didn’t turn out quite right. At first, they were too tight to stay together. They, after wearing down a bit, they fit together pretty well. Now the right stud has warped and won’t fit quite right with the blade box. (You can kind of see the awkward connection in the photos.) I’d like to see how these parts would turn out on a higher-end printer, or on a low end printer with adjusted dimensions.
The Majhost gallery has more pictures and renders. I’ve mirrored the photos, along with .STL files to Mediafire.
MOC: Dieselpunk Vic Viper
This year for Novvember, I decided to try and make a dieselpunk Vic Viper.
I started thew build off with the wings, and added the front propellers when I realized that I couldn’t pull off the dieselpunk look with regular Vic Viper prongs. The result probably isn’t too practical, but it looks neat.
The machine gun in the back was a last minute addition. I had already added a seat for a gunner, so I figured he needed something to shoot. 😛
The cockpit can hold two minifigures- a pilot and a gunner.
