This is the Ocelot! It is an alternate build of the LEGO 42120 technic rescue hovercraft set (seen right, below). It uses only the parts from the set, with no extra parts added.

The landing gear is connected to the rotor position through a series of beams. When the gear folds down, the rotors are tilted up in the take off and landing position. When the gear is folded into the body, the rotors tilt forward, ready for horizontal flight.

Getting the two mechanisms to line up together was quite challenging. There's also some tricky geometry with how the fuselage is an even number of modules and the bars that support the wings are an odd number (typical for technic). What i had to do here was use angled connectors to get it all to work!

It also features an opening cargo bay, and moveable rudders at the rear.

Luxury Yacht (2018)
Luxury Yacht (2018)
As part of my training as a junior LEGO Builder with Bright Bricks, I had to design and build a classic luxury yacht. I was only given one reference image and told that the model needed to fit around 50 studs (40 centimeters)

I used SNOT (Studs Not On Top) techniques to shape the hull, and made sure to include the most important details, such as the lower windows and jacuzzi! It was a challenging build but it was the first model I had built where I had access to such a huge selection of parts!

I used to live opposite Greenwich in London, where the Cutty Sark, one of the last surviving tea clippers, is kept on display. I set out to try and make my own! My favorite detail has to be using a minifigure trophy as a figurehead.

Santa's Robotic Sleigh (2024)
Santa's presents have fallen out of his sleigh, and he's not hit the gym in months, so there's no chance of getting them all back in the sleigh in time for xmas!

Fortunately, help is at hand, so he can thank the STARS (Santa's Tracked Automobile Recovery Service)!
When I first saw the Mack LR Electric Garbage Truck, I was amazed at the claw feature, which lets you pick up and 'tip' the garbage into the truck!
I took the same claw design and fitted it to the back of the sleigh like a classic PTO (Power Take Off) module on a service vehicle, such as the ones on the Technic Unimog.
I also added caterpillar tracks and a Circuit cubes battery box + 3 motors, enabling bluetooth remote control!
I hope to run workshops next year showing kids (and adults) how to build this excellent contraption!
