NinjaWhip on Twitter made a little contest-like thing, where he wanted people to tell him what they’d want from a Legacy Overlord Dragon set.
I was very happy to have an excuse to build a big, evil dragon, so I did!
This build was extremely fun and I pretty much built it 5 days, which I didn’t think I’d be able to do.
I wanted to build it quite big, because it is supposed to be a lot bigger then the golden dragon in universe. The model has 1528 pieces.
Wow! It looks like it came straight out of the show. I’m particularly fond of the hook-shapes you put among the wing segments and the pieces you used to shape the head tendrils.
By the way, the Legacy-style Dareth and Evil Nya are stunning.
When I first watched Ninjago, I was disappointed there was no official Overlord Dragon set. This is utterly fantastic!
My only complaint, which is more of a nit-pick, is that an official set would probably have a few more play features. Seems like the only one is the tail. Other than that, it looks amazing!
Yeah I thought about putting in a wing flapping function like the Firstbourne dragon, but I didn’t have to much time for the contest and the way I built it it allowed some more posability for the renders.
I love how the tendrils are very simple and extremely effective
The patting on the wings is perfect
The head is perfect and inposeing
I can see this as a official expert set
