Awesomeness Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 This is a Dune Buggy. It's designed for fast movement over desert terrains. It also has two big engines.BottomBackSo, yeah. A pretty simple Moc.Oh, and I know the sides have holes. I had a way cooler Moc at the time that sadly I did not get pictures of and it used all my non-holed beams. so, here is my last minute excuse for the holes: The desert the buggy is designed for has harsh winds, and the winds frequently pick up sand grains. these grains contain trace elements of metal. This wind often blows sand into these holes (relax, there is a thin layer of glass protecting the pilot and the interior). So, at the end of the day, once the buggy has been brought back to base and the human pilot left the vehicle, the buggy is picked up and shaken to dislodge all the sand within the holes, which is then melted down into metal. Comments and criticism appreciated! Quote Awesomeness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crankbait Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 That's pretty cool. I like your description on how the dune buggy is picked up and shaken to remove the sand that's within the holes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, it's a last minute excuse, and I am AMAZING at coming up with those Quote Awesomeness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malevolence Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 The 'excuse' story made me like this MOC even more. It's on the blocky side, and a wee-bit odd-looking in some ways, but It's rather cute and still recogniseable as what it's intended to be.

Akuna Toa of Sonics Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Nice. The blocky look appeals to me, and so do the tires. I also like the back axle things and the cockpit.
