Hello! Today I have one of my personal favorites, the F-35 fighter jet. It started out as a f-16, and I thought it looked crappy, so I changed it into a f-18, and then about a month later I wanted to change it again. So I almost totally rebuilt it into an F-22, and I changed it several times, then I got bored and changed it into an F-35. Anyways, it has V.T.O. (vertical take off) like the harrier jump jet, and is a stealth plane. There is a cargo /bomb hold near the back, and the jet engine at the back can rotate downwards for the V.T.O. It took me about a year and a half to go from the F-16 to the current version, although I will probably change it again later on.
Heres the engine...
And heres the engine rotated for V.T.O.
This is a pic of the cargo hold. Its about three bricks deep and eight long.

Tutorial
Hello again! Here's a lego tutorial on how to build a .50 cal sniper rifle, and a arm backpack. I'll hopefully make more vids/tutorials and post them on youtube and on this blog.
White snow speeder
Hello everyone!!! So, this model is kinda AWESOME because it just looks cool. I originally wanted to make a turret, so I built the middle part, but it looked like the base of a speeder so I built onto it and, well, here it is. Surprisingly, this took me almost two hours to make because I wanted it to look aerodynamic, while using the smallest amount of pieces.

Tip of the week
So, this weeks tip is when you're making models of fast things, ex. planes, spaceships, or fast cars, always keep them streamlined. I mean, if you had a car that could, in theory could go 200 km per hours, and it was boxy like a hummer or had stuff sticking out everywhere, it's more likely to go 75 km/h. same thing goes with planes and spaceships. Keep them streamlined!! If you make slower models like the attack howitzer, then it's okay to have them a bit more boxy. But only by a bit.
Attack howitzer
Sorry I didn't post for so long!! I was sick with some kind of flu or something.
Anyways, heres my next model. It probably took me 4 hours to make, ( btw, I'm saying four hours total building time, not Four in one go. It usually takes two days to build a model ) and I think it's awesome. Definetely the biggest model I've built yet. Probably ever, judging by the pieces it took to make.
