I have no slizers feet. What should I do?
…Those are about the most common armoring piece use…
It’s hopeless.
I know I am
SUMMON THE BRICKLINKKKKKK!!!
Seriously. Bricklink is great. Should be getting my first ■■■■■■■■ soon.
Don’t worry, you can always find or make a new technique.
Ok, here’s how to use a skrall/vorox armor for a mask. (sorry about the picture quality, my phone forgot how to focus)
You need these pieces (no, I’m not naming them all)
The trans studs are optional.
I don’t have anything to say here
Blah blah blah, building.
Look out! Blue pins!
Here comes the actual mask part
Filler text!
If you have a socket for the neck, just replace the hand with a glatorian neck.
Th-th-that’s all folks!
…
No seriously, that’s it from me. no more.
So due to boredom, I’m willing to post here again.
So, of my Makuta Horribad MOC, would you rather see me do a how-to for the Arms, or the Torso?
Torso.
Hm. I believe noone’s posted any torso how-to’s, So I think I’ll post a How-to I made on a custom torso design I made!
Parts you need:
Now then, first, you must assemble the shoulders:
Next comes the main assembly/Spine:
Note: You can use any 3 stud/axle hole long item for it. For the purpose of explaining, I’m using these 2 pieces
Finally, the combination
Note: For the neck, either balljoint or socket connections are fine
comparison between socket and ball joint
Finally a custom example torso( The back can either be an av-matoran torso, or a custom spine, while the front torso may be a nuva chest plate or some sort of custom breast plate
Nice. I might use that for matoran/agori builds.
Edit: I’ll give you credit if I post the sometime
wow that’s awesome.
Note: Final design might be gappy in the chest area, but it allows for cool shoulder articulation!
Aight, this took a lot of pictures, so you guys better appreciate it. -_-
This is the torso for Makuta Horribad. It is unorthadox, in that it uses sockets for shoulders instead of balls, but don’t worry. I have an alternative.
These are all the pieces you’ll need for it. I wanna point out, though, that two of the hands can be swapped out for Glatorian Necks, provided you have more 3-long pins.
As you can see, 4-long axles, and both of those oddly-shaped liftarm things.
They’re loose ATM, I know. They liftarms become stable the closer we get to completion
Fairly simple.
So yeah, you bascally just gotta stick the other two L liftarms there, and you’re golden.
I’m not very clear with this image. But basically, you just slide the liftarm into the right place, and then take a 3-long pin to keep it there.
In case it wasn’t obvious, I attached the waist assembly, and then stuck a Metru Armor with two pins in it on top of it.
Images get a little harder to tell at this part
But I think you guys can understand what just happened there
I think it’s pretty easy to tell what holes I stuck the pins into.
For the record, this is the small T shaped liftarm
And that’s where it goes.
And onto that, you attach the Piraka foot.
And now you should have that.
Now, protip: If you want ball-shoulders instead of socket shoulders, attach the axles holes of Glatorian necks to the 4 long axles used eariler instead of hand pieces. Then, with the pinhole, stick the longer end of a 3-long pin, which will go through both L liftarms, and the Glatorian neck on each side.
It may have been confusing, but I think you guys got it.
Nice, a little tall and skinny for my tastes, but otherwise a very good looking and sturdy torso design.
GREEBLES is cool.
this is awesome! i might use it in a moc if that’s okay?
Oh yes, of course.
That’s why I posted it here. Simply give due credit, and I’d be more than happy to see you use the design.
Just built a bionicle moc for the first time in a while, and here’s a tip- cover lots. Don’t leave many unfilled pin holes.
This would be a post to place in this topic as opposed to the one here.
But it’s a technique and not needed to start.
