LEGO F4U-1D Corsair MOC [Digital Rendering Preview]

Hey everyone! Jack here, and this time I’m happy to present a digital rendering of my next model! This is My F4U-1D Corsair MOC, designed by me over at stud.io and rendered with their rendering software. I’ll go into more of the details of the model and history once I have photographed it “in the brick”, so to speak, but for now I just wanted to share with you all a glimpse into a new frontier for me that I’ve wanted to break into for a while: digital LEGO. Not only is it typically more cost effective for me in the sense that I can compare/contrast various designs and techniques without purchasing upfront parts, but it also allows me to familiarize myself with an aspect of LEGO I have previously not often been concerned with: instructions.

“Now hold on, Jack, why would instructions be of any use to you? You built the darn thing, didn’t you?” Well, yes, I have. But they aren’t for me -- they are for the public! See, this post also serves as a bit of an announcement for a small instructions selling business I intend to start. I plan to make the instructions affordable but reasonable in price, and make them very detailed but readable -- as is, of course, ideal. These instructions shall be digitally designed and delivered, and will include a digital parts list that is uploadable to the site of Bricklink.com. It will auto-order your parts into your cart there, ready for checkout. I’ll of course provide estimate ranges for the models themselves calculated on a daily basis for anyone interested in my instructions/parts lists.

Honestly, this is something I’ve been reluctant to do as I never personally wanted to turn my LEGO hobby/passion into a business for others. Plus, I have no idea how successful I’ll be. Even so, the way I see it is that I can try it for a while and if it doesn’t pan out in any way shape or form adequate enough for its shut-down, I can stop without any dire consequences. Wish me luck on that front I suppose, then. For now, I’d like to thank you guys so much for your time -- appreciate you all and I hope you all have a great day!
