MB Willy's Jeep & M2 American Half Track

First lets start with some back ground information about the MB Willy's Jeep. The MB Willy's Jeep stands for "General Purpose", as you can see that it is spelt differently. if you divide the word Jeep into "Jee" and "p" it sounds like "G" and "P". The MB Willy's Jeep was manufactured from 1941 to 1945 which is four years being manufactured. Now onto the M2 American Half track, the M2's were manufactured between 1942 and 1943.

Douglas C-47

Hello, this is my Douglas C-47 model that I made in the past few weeks. Of course, I know that its not made in Lego as you would expect.

Here is how I made the C-47 / DC-3:

First I used my computer to manufacture the actual fragments for the plane. I used the real blueprints of the C-47 and after that I scaled it down so that the proportions would remain the same.
 
Afterward I cut out the fragments from the PVC foam board.

Wheels & Elevators

Wing & Engines

Fuselage & Rudder

After I glued everything together.

Later I painted the the top green and the bottom grey.

And lastly, I had to put on the stickers. I drew these stickers on my computer by myself. I also used PVA glue to put these stickers on.

  And here is the finished product:

My Trip To Phillip Island

At first we went trough the security check. As you can see we came as competitors. It was very easy, for me because I was a passenger. :)

Before we came in, we saw a whole army of cars and trucks.

Next we checked out the pits. We spotted a whole heap of cars. Mercedes-Benz SLS GT3 McLaren, Lamborghini, Ferrari, even an Aston Martin.

Then we went see a couple of races, we saw the following cars: F3, V8, Mercedes-Benz SLS GT3 McLaren, Lamborghini, Ferrari, and Aston Martin.

 Then we decided that the races are going to take forever. I really wanted to go the museum, so we decided to go there.

This is the tunnel we came in and came out.

Then we drove away, by the tunnel we came in.

We all had a very enjoyable time.

  

Lego Expedition Jeep Instruction

This is my expedition jeep, I made a movie about it a long time ago I don't even remember when. Then I discovered it again on my iPad (I made this movie on my iPad). I decided to put it on my blog because it is a unique and outstanding instruction manual.   

I hope you enjoyed this movie.

Mini Space Area

This is my mini space area, it isn't made out of 25 bricks but parts of it are.
If you are wondering why I call it the MSA (Mini Space Area)? It's
because everything has to do with space.

This is the rocket it can be divided into three parts.



This is the main communication tower, you will see smaller
communication towers later on.














This is the radar to help track things down, like rockets and even UFO's.



















This is a mini telescope (believe it or not its made out of TWO
bricks). There are three of these in this MSA.There are also trees and bushes. A tree uses four bricks even though its the same size as the mini telescope.

Small communication towers are all linked to the Main communication Tower.

There is also a observation room, in which scientists look at images
which were taken by the telescopes an the radar.

There are even generators for back up power ( if the power gets cut out).

Even roads are in this MSA for cars, vans, and truck's.

And also a control room to make sure that the rocket is fine ant that
it is going in the right direction.

SWAT Helicopter

Before we start with the helicopter, you might be wondering what SWAT
means? It means Special Weapons And Tactics. The first SWAT team was
established by Daryl Gates in 1968. It is still operate to this present
day.
Lets go back to the SWAT helicopter, this helicopter body was
supposed to be black, but the body only came in red color, so I had to paint it black. I used plastic model paints. I left the inside red
because it looks like there is a red light. I wanted it to look like a
real life helicopter. Have you ever wondered why light inside the
helicopter is red it's because if it's dark outside your eyes don't
have to adjust for a long time, and if it's light outside your eyes
don't have to adjust for the light of the day for a long time.























The blades can fold together so you can transport it more easily. Missiles can be fired from the back. On the sides you can see two R.P.G. Missiles and you can detach them easily and replace them with another weapon like a machine guns.

Inside there is a dash board with computers and speedometers to make
sure the helicopter doesn't go out of control.

This helicopter can hold three SWAT mini-figs (Lego people). These mini-figs
can be hanging on ropes or chains of the helicopter.

LEGO ARMY TRUCK

In this post I will be showing my Lego army truck.

Again, it is not made out of 25 bricks, but I'd like to show it on this blog.

In this truck the only thing that isn't Lego is the tent.
