M4 Sherman Tank, Anti-Aircraft gun, Radar and Czech Hedgehog

Hello, today I will be showing my M4 Sherman Tank, Anti-Aircraft gun, Radar and Czech Hedgehog. The M4 Sherman was an American medium sized tank, It was manufactured between 1940-1941 in WWII, this tank was in service from 1942-1955 which is three years in service. The Czech Hedgehog is a Anti-Tank obstacle defense made from angled iron.

Here you can see all the four minifigs.

This is the soldier that is protecting the camp site

You can see that this Hedgehog is a bit rusted.

This Hedgehog is all right and not damaged.

This is what you've been waiting for, the M4 Sherman.

Here is how the inside of the turret looks like.

Here is the side with the rope and the antenna.

This is a picture of the front and the side. You can see the window, the chain, headlights and the tracks.

this is how the turret tuns. by using a 2x2 round block and a 4x4 round plate you can make a turret turn.

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.
