Update: I spray painted the mask, you can see the result at post 14.
So here is another MOC of mine Myr and Shellington (no I don’t have a reason for the names)
Myr is a matoran type character while Shellington is a turtle… Thing. Myr has weapon storage for her… Well weapons. Now here’s some extra pics! (the tan MOC is my self MOC jalrian I would link to the topic but I don’t know how) oh yeah, OBLIGATORY OUTDOOR SHOT. Comments and feedback are appreciated!Nice. And Shellington is adorable.
How is Shellington a turtle if he has mandibles?
I … Um… I… TO THE INVISIBLE BOATMOBILE AND AWAY! in all seriousness though I didn’t even really think about a actual turtle while building him, more how a knights castle piece could be used as a shell.
@BBricks thanks! I definitely wanted that to be the response to Shellington.
Welcome. Hey. what is that piece used for Shellington’s shell?
I believe it is one of those constraction knight sets shoulder pieces I’m not sure because I store all my pieces in a giant bin.
Ah. Thanks.
Let’s be honest here: when have Bionicle creatures ever actually payed attention to what the real creature looks like? Case in point: Visorak. A defining feature of real spiders is that they have eight legs. How many do Visorak have? Four. Try again, Lego.
That aside, I like what I see. Myr’s color scheme is neat,
^What he said
An effective Matoran design with a great color scheme. Shellington is also a nice addition.
I would paint the mask completely white or replace the trans-green with trans-blue, but that looks really good
Nice custom matoran build, the turtle looks more like a beetle.
And the mask works badly with the color scheme.
@AwesomeJoel27 @Asriel I Completely agree. Sadly I only own 2 white masks (this one and kopaka’s. So maybe I’ll do a custom head or something. Oh and painting is something that I’m still thinking about.
you could use white spray paint, I think it would look really cool if you just painted it white
kinda like this, but better
@Asriel you know what I’ll test it out thanks for the suggestion.
UPDATE:
I finally spray painted the mask and here’s the result!
Nice little MOC duo here. Both fairly well done.
But Shellington is the real MVP…
Yea the spray paint looks great but his chest peice is cracked
