I think that it should have a slightly larger perimeter/dimeter/ HECK WHO KNOWS WHAT THE OUTSIDE OF A CIRCLE IS IN POSH MATHS SPEAK!!!

The word you are looking for is "Circumference" and yea, it should be larger...
The pieces arrived for my jeep. I tried building it like this one:

But I'm not that good so it's quite different. Here's my finished attempt:



Looks good. Maybe add flat bricks to the top of the engine to smooth it out. Also to the top of the cab, unless you need it for animating.
Could someone critique mine?
Awesomeonomy, I would suggest you use this piece instead of the jumper plate:
.
Also, this might work a bit better for the handle:
For the large scale version, I would suggest making the entire thing two studs thick, rather than just the speakers.

P.S. Thank you for being calm and polite, even though you got skipped. A lot of people in your place would have immediately gotten upset .
Thanks Jargon! I was originally going to use those pieces, but I wasn't sure how I could enlarge it to be on the larger scale.
Hmm, I think the large-scale handle would work fine, but I would suggest lengthening the boombox two studs (one on each end) and using a little SNOT; attaching black 2x2 round plates to the front.

Ooh, that's a good idea ![]()

look at Paganos radio, its pretty awesome.
Well, it's a bit big for me, and I don't have many pieces ![]()
Try to use some hinges for the knees. Also, stealing ideas doesn't go down too well. Pawel had the idea of the knees, and the chaingun is pretty damn unoriginal. Trust me, I've seen so many videos on how to build that thing that you wouldn't be able to count them. Wait, you wouldn't WANT to count them.

I like him a lot. But not a fan of the feet or the legs. Just work on those 2 things and I think he will be great!

I made a table.

actually, I had made this before Pawel posted. I just couldn't find my camera. My chaingun was also originally my idea, not that I came up with it, I just didn't copy it from someone else.
To everyone else, I realize how blocky he is, but it's hard to make a sleek and micro-scaled anything.
