I GOT THIS F**KING LEGO SET (sorry for language its just so epic!

[Telamon8]

awesome job with the animation but, one minor thing, the propeller was spinning the wrong way.

[TubaFrog]

@Telamon8 I wouldn't know, but there are lots of YouTube videos showing "sopwith camels" being started by a guy spinning the propeller counter-clockwise (or clockwise from the pilot's point of view) so that's how I did mine. Am I missing something?

[LegoBrickfilmer23]

THIS IS THE MOST F***ING AWESOME LEGO AIRPLANE EVER!!!!!!! (Sorry for language its just to frickin epic!)

[Stiegsfeld]

WOW! What a wonderful animation! I am speachless about this video art.

The Sopwith has been in fact one of the best models from shop at home - I liked the Model Team style but it was way beyond that! Only the stickers have been a pain once they started to cripple.... :-(

So you have used multiple pictures fused to do the motion blur effects?

When I recently look after motion blur I came across the lohmueller article as well. But then I decided to try MEGAPov instead first.

LEG GODT!

I'm hoping Lego re-releases this set.

[vengeance1992]

[Kogitsunekun]

I remember getting this set ages ago for either christmas or my birthday and spending half a day building it - it was simply the most advanced set I had ever done at that time. Thanks for bringing back some good memories.

[StickiesOfficial]

does it come w/ a Snoopy minifigure

[StickiesOfficial]

thumbs up if you find the beginning the least bit creepy

[MTwillman]

[ThatLegoBuilder]

[Telamon8]

should I but this for $230.00 USD on ebay (with the RARE black and white box), the $70.00 USD brickmania SPad S.XIII, or the Fokker Dr. 1 Dreidecker( made famous by Manfred Von Richtofen AKA The Red Barron).

[MrConnor2000]

[JARJARMP]

[TheLegoman67]

asome

[Benedek93]

Great to watch! You use PovRay to make these animations, right? How did you make the motion blur of the propeller at the beginning and end of the video?

[TubaFrog]

@Benedek93

Good question! I couldn't find any video software (free, at least!) to do a realistic motion blur.

But I found an article that shows how to fake it within POV-Ray on this page: (YouTube won't let me post the link? do a search for 'simulation of motion blur rotating propeller blades lohmueller )

[Benedek93]

@TubaFrog Yeah, I had the same problem, not knowing how to do motion-blur in POV-Ray. I managed to do it with post-processing with ImageMagick. I've uploaded that video here on YouTube: /watch?v=R9FfkIGWoC4

[Telamon8]

the time it'll take me to build this is 2 days including sleep and breaks

[Telamon8]

brakes

[didu52]

Dude! That set is freaking sick! How many pieces is it, and how much on ebay?

[mx472000]

You sir, have amazing videos! Keep up the good work!
