MOC advice/help

[Eilrach]

Ok I’ve been stuck on this build for awhile now, so I’ve decided to ask for some other views.

Here’s the build

So I’m stuck on making the legs rn

[Enbeanie]

what is it?

[Gringat]

Oo, major cassette futurism vibes from this guy. Maybe legs isn’t the right answer at all for something like this. Thinking about some seriously old school robot designs from classic science fiction. What about a set of 3 tyred wheels?

[MakutaOisli]

Hey does anyone have a head that has lots of teeth?

[GoodGuy2006]

i have one on my shoulders

@Eilrach

So I’m stuck on making the legs rn

greetings children
what would y’all prefer as a moc? (both share the same basic build just wth different color schemes)
toa naho (blue, metru blue and mabye silver)
Toa varient of my selfmoc Rhyla (metru blue, teal and silver)

• Toa Rhlya
• Toa Naho

thanks!
(edit)
k looks like Rhlya won by a landslide - althou i will probs do Naho when her contests roles around

I recently got my hands on a titan takanuva. I like his gold og color scheme though, and feel inspired to modify his color scheme with different colored parts. What strikes me as most difficult is repainting his gunmetal parts into gold. Any tips for painting bionicle pieces?

[Atobe_Brick]

Did you use a primer?

I have no experience with painting lego pieces but I’ve read that it’s a it’s a good idea to lay down a primer layer first

[Dadertrix]

Well, for starters, you’ve got an hf piece up front there, so that definitely doesn’t belong with that set, not sure if you’re aware. I personally would ask that you don’t paint bionicle pieces, they are only going to become more rare as time goes on, unless someone convinces lego to do a complete reprint of the entire line. So all I can ask is this: whatever you do to your parts, please make sure it can be undone in the future.

[Monopoly]

I’d agree that you should definitely paint less rare pieces if you can - I’d especially recommend getting some regular Takadox heads and painting those instead of sacrificing the coveted gunmetal ones.

[Toa-Panem]

I don’t suppose there are parts I could find on shapeways? That way I’m not painting over an official piece.

Wow, that is expensive. I already paid $100 for takanuva.

@Atobe_Brick Hm, guess I’ll start there

Whelp i am workin on both Rhyla and Naho - dunno which one i will post first - depends which arrives first.
(btw color schemes have changed for naho - metru blue, sand blue and metal blue! its gonna look sick!)
on the rhyla front

• Metru build
• Custom build

also for naho - which mask power suits her better?

• Mask of healing (no canon appearance)
• Mask of adaptation( no canon appearance
• Mask of concealment (huna)

[Rhyla416]

umm also - just need a little opinion here for Naho
fyi, her other colors are sand blue and metru blue

• Metal blue armor
• Silver armor

metal blue probs looks better - silver is slightly easier…

[Enbeanie]

Blue Metal would be delicious, but pieces in that colour are rare

[Rhyla416]

ye - so im gonna be a little creative…

[Axelford]

My Bio-Cup entry so far, a portal which will have 5 aliens with the skrall sword as faces, peering in, with one grasping the rim of the portal.

Thoughts? (Edit) Like, I’m not sure if I should change the aliens to a more contrasting colour, make the portal background red…etc. Idk lol

[Wekua]

I think it’s pretty cool thus far. I was wondering what all those brick separators were gonna be for

[Rhyla416]

(I need to stop using this topic so much)
A or B?
ignore da colors - this is a leg design for Rhyla

A

B
also i am kinda liking this back-ground

• A
• B

[DuneToa]

And I just broke the voting system. It’s currently a tie.

[Rhyla416]
