    Awesome video! I’m so happy that you’re going in this direction and I love seeing the process. The moment at 5:20 is so relatable for MOC building!

    I watch this while I'm sorting / piecing together sets using Bricklink inventory. I don't have to literally watch all the time because you talk alot like a podcast so I'm still getting your input and following along by hearing you even though I'm not watching with my eyes. So yes, I like this format vs a 1 minute short.

    Looks good! I was hesitant about the orange inside, but in the end, it looks really good. I enjoyed this vid and the whole story arc including the dilemma of "do you have the blue piece you need," and the anticipation of the final outcome.

    Definitely am loving all the customization you've done to this car. The solid blue does look awesome, and the flame orange accents inside really make it pop. I like Coty's headlight idea as well. I'm really excited to see the next thing you build. Awesome video, buddy. Keep inspiring!

    The most recent thing I custiomized with a LEGO set was the 501st barc speeder. Making the LEGO design but smaller and slightly more accurate to a fig. Thats the great thing about the hobby is that if want to customize a existing set the only thing stopping you is your imagination and maybe your part count.

    The solid blue looked better than the light blue and white. I don't know how we got so many more orange pieces than you. It might be that most of our orange pieces are from when my daughter was little. Our legos are a mix from my brother in the 80s, my daughter 90s -early 2000s and now my grandson 2018 until present.

    In all honesty I have never considered customizing a pre made lego kit. I've always been of the mind set of building all the models on the box and then tearing it all apart to make something else or keep one made for display. Great video. Great build.

    I really like the all blue body but kinda liked the other interior better and the original headlights but that's just personal preference. I do this to sets a lot. Gotta personalize it. I will say that it would be kinda cool to have the rims yellow and the inserts white or blue. It would really make it pop more to me. But not sure if that's possible.

    Gotta admit I was a little apprehensive at first, but the customization looks awesome, I do prefer the og headlights, I agree it does make it look a bit older, but that's just a preference thing yk so as long as it's good for you it works, still looks great tho great job
    Also love this style of video or sure, you should definitely do more in the future

    At 16:51 a piece was attached to the right bottom of the bumper or left from the driver seat perspective. And well it fell on the floor hopefully you found it im sure you did.

    • @brickitect
      @brickitect  Рік тому

      I wasn't sure if I was going to just remove the light blue or the white as well and I think after seeing it as a solid color, I like it. It could be because I just built the Mustang that was also blue with white racing stripes.

      Yeah, I think I would prefer black wheels also. Doing a quick bit of research on bricklink, I did find out that they do make those rims in black and they came in a speed champions set. There not too expensive as well., but overall I love the rest of the design.
