Hello and welcome to a post from Legomatic, and today we'll be looking at my first attempt at building in Steampunk, a fantastical concept that is extremely fun to build in. If you are from Lego Ideas, please consider supporting my project, it would mean a lot.
I imagine the story behind this, is that in the modern world, an old, fanatical AI developed back when steam engines were used in every device has watched the world develop before him. He is insulted by the gleaming, white, seamless devices and wants to bring back what once was. In order to make his dream reality, he has renovated one of his long dead masters projects into something a little more sinister, to exact his vision upon everyone else, whether they like it or not.
Here is the machine, The ST33m 550, a walker armed with dual rodburn cannons. It runs off coal(of course), stored in a internal tank, which then heats rods of metal within to white hot temperatures, which are then expelled out the end, burning and melting everything it hits.
The front focus lenses are made of wagon wheel parts, the gold U's are bucket handles, and a translucent green minifigure head makes up the eye. This goes to show that a part is more than what it was meant to do.
The legs use socket joints, useful for holding poses, but they can also bend back and forth 180 degrees, and can swivel around 360 degrees. I also used the 1 x 1 Round Plate with Hollow Stud with Bar at Side to mount the legs. It allows me to connect them easily, but also be able to bend them out easier for more poses.
On the inside, it's actually pretty easy to get the round shape, just used some trial and error. To get the large discs in place, I just used a 1 x 2 with 90 degrees 2 x 2 side plate with another 2 x 2 plate on top. I then put the disc piece on the side, and there you have it! Sounds complicated, but trust me, it's quite simple.
The rodburn cannons are made of brown and gray barrel pieces, as well as wheel rims. Barrel pieces are EXTREMELY useful for steampunk builds, they just bring a new texture to the build.
Next is the small walker that the AI brain resides inside. Mostly just for walking around, he also armed it with a poleflame turret.
Around the back is the chain piece that not only looks cool, but also supports the central pole, attaching the top and legs. The gear is there to make you imagine the turning mechanism, because the human mind connects gears with rotation, and that's what I want you to think.
On the top is the AI inside a glass dome, with the life sustaining engine behind him. Different assortments of handles, 1 x 1's and tubes make up the smoke shafts.
Looks like he hitched a piggy back ride!
That's it for me today! Please consider supporting soon, and if you haven't already, check out yesterday's post on my Tree of Musical Life contest entry! See you guys later.

ReplyDeleteThere is no doubt that standard Ruger LCP 2 in.380 ACP is a fine defensive gun. Compact and light-weight, with a conveniently managed trigger as well as decent views, the LCP II is a leader in the "micro locked-breech.380" classification that tasks sufficient close-range power in a "deep concealment" package. However Ruger decided that at.22 LR Ruger LCP 2 must be contributed to their schedule for some great reasons. Ruger LC9S Accessories
