Slightly improved. The older looked like a train, which is not so bad but was not the intention :D

An attempt at copycat-ing one of my favourite scenes in one of my favourite movies
For FGR - Time Travellers Photo Album
Explored ???
It is pretty wired that Philipp just told me right before i uploaded these that today is Delorean´s deathday:

Well i paid some justice to one of the most beloved cars of movie history i hope.
The chassis is spraypainted metalic silver.
The scale is 1:15.

Thanks Max !
My desk... I make this picture the past month, my backgrounds have changed now, maybe next week for others pictures :D...
Here's how TK455 and TK479 got their hands on the Delorean they used to go meet their doubles from the past.
Part of the time-travel story arc. To be continued...

Europe, Netherlands, Rotterdam Zuid, Katendrecht, SS Rotterdam (uncut)
Ah, the SS Rotterdam.
Some back ground and history about this fab ship:
Some of the finest modernist architecture was designed by maritime designers. The lines of the SS Rotterdam are a fine example of this. The (partly aluminium) volume masses of the superstructure are sheer rhythmic poetry. When the SS Rotterdam was opened to the public I wrote:
"It was a stroke of genius, albeit a very expensive one, when a Rotterdam social housing corporation decided that the restructuring an revitalization of the former red light harbour and industrial urban peninsula 'Katendrecht' was best served with the permanent mooring of the transaltantic liner and later cruise ship SS Rotterdam there and to give it a cultural and social economic function (museum, restaurant, hotel, bar, congress - and party centre). New jobs would be created for the jobless and young people from Katendrecht.
The SS Rotterdam is a former flagship of the HAL (Holland America Line) built at the RDM ship yards in Rotterdam in 1958 and one of the biggest ships ever build in Holland. She ended her sailing days some 6 years ago and a destiny at a breakers yard loomed.
The purchase and very costly and lengthy restoration eventually set back the corporation a total sum of 225 million Euro. During the process there were many raised eyebrows and discussions and the central government stepped in when the corporation was facing bankruptcy. It temporally lost a part of its independency in the process.
The refitted SS Rotterdam was opened to the public some weeks ago and serves as a hotel ship, congress centre, restaurant and theatre now.
And what a treat it is to be there, enjoy the beautiful transatlantic design of the ship and take in the spectacular views of the Rotterdam skyline from it. An unique and quintessentially Rotterdam experience."
A year ago ago a new chapter in the SS Rotterdam saga was written. Under a new political constellation the government, that earlier had bailed the building corporation out, now forced it to sell the ship to strengthen its financial position.
For a while there was only one potential buyer which was from Dubai. And Rotterdam faced the risk that it would loose its new landmark. Luckily a local buyer was found - a hotel chain. And this chain also continued the cooperation with two major Rotterdam schools of professional education. So Rotterdam didn't loose its new landmark and the quarter of Katendrecht didn't loose a major social-economic engine.
It's a WIP. I feel that it needs some length behind the rear wheels. Not much, maybe a plate or so. It's also a try to build it out of silver bricks without cheating, but there is just 1x1 plate, 2x2 cornerplate, 1x6 tile and a 2x2 tile avaliable, so it's a tough challenge, especially because I'm still not really sold on that color, and feel like light gray could be better. We'll see.

My most interesting photos according to flickr.
An example of what can be found after a sleepless night, waiting for the sun to rise, to go back home, have breakfast and sleep.
Perhaps surprisingly, the vents on the back were the bits that gave me the most trouble. I tried various different solutions, but ultimately the ladder pieces and angling the whole thing gave me a look that I liked.
(Note that there is only one vehicle here, just edited in multiple places)
This was as much of an impulse buy as impulse buys can get. But it's a pink Delorean piloted by a Tronesque lady in a similarly pink mohawk! How awesome is that? "Shyvana" came in a set of "Future Police," all of which were blatant recolors of Lego Dimensions kits with decorations stolen right from Tron Legacy. But you know what, I don't care. Because this looks awesome.
Now, the copy isn't perfect, it is still missing some important parts that would allow you to reconstruct the Flying Time Machine, though you can make a passable Electric Time Machine with some creativity. And so Kazi created their own rebuilds which are pictured on the right and left. I dunno, they're not quite Lego quality, but they get the job done. The truck is actually kinda cool with the big scoop on the front and the rollcage.

This week's challenge was to imagine myself stepping into a time machine and going to another era, past or future. Hmm, tough! But with the help of my family, I got to Victorian times. Hope you like it.
One of the DeLorean's futuristic features were the gullwing doors. Getting them to fit and open properly was not an easy feature to pull off on the LEGO model and they are quite flimsy.
My husband built this HG Wells time machine as described in the book not the 1960 movie. The Morlock is also hand built by him and is a 6'9" tall time traveler, the two of these hand-built items go to all our Steampunk events Here you see them with the steam train in the background at The Steampunk Express event this past weekend.
