Another micro-scale (1:300ish) submarine, because the newer 10x2x2 slopes were too good not to use as some kind of ship bow. In the real world, the Chinese name all their nuclear submarines Chángzhēng, or "Long March", followed by a number. Traditionally, NATO's assigned reporting name for each class is a Chinese imperial dynasty. For this one I rolled with the Tang, who ruled from 618 to 917 CE. Aesthetics-wise, I tried to make it look pretty Soviet, to keep with the style of the SPA faction.
Big shout-out to Awe and Thomas for help along the way -- both much more talented boat builders than I.

Well, I was never a big fan of Typhoon/Tempest, nor did I plan to make of one for myself, but somehow it just came together. As usual in my case, it started with an idea for a particular part of the plane (this time it was the front section), and it looked so good, that I've decided to give It a try. There are still some structural issues to be solved/optimized, and I still have to design the camouflage - unfortunately, the lack of 2x3 curved slopes in drag green and dark bluish gray might be a problem with the current design of side panels. Other than that, the camo will be pretty boring, as all Tempests looked the same, the only variants I have to consider are the color of the propeller (white/yellow/red/black), and whether I make it with or without invasion stripes. The emergence of my Tempest likely means that my finished Bf 109F-4 will have to wait a few additional weeks for a photoshoot, as I will probably just make one session for both of them.

The Lamborghini Countach
Marcelo Gandini's masterpiece!
The best automotive design ever!
It is a special one for me because it was always on top of my wanted MOCs list!
I had random ideas about many sections of this car in my head for many years but it was always seemed like too much of a riddle to combine all of them.
After the smart solution for the headlights, the great amount of new Lego parts and the realization that the front angular wheel arches are unachievable in this scale (see @jerac.lego 's jaw dropping Countach), I realized I could build the rest of it one way or another.
This one has more aggressive fitment, sits lower with a lot of camber but it doesn't have passive steering.
