I was recently playing with the design of my G3 Self MOC and got bored enough to attempt some of the other self MOCs that I’ve seen on here. Most of these other MOCs had been done in the stylized design of @Noupix. This time, they use a minifig template design to get a style closer to TTV’s design.
At some point I may come up with a side story for G3 that follows various Self-MOCs around.
Finally finished the story I wanted to make with these guys. It serves as an overall intro to the Self-MOC cast and where they fit during the pre-freeze part of the story. Eventually I may make more for after the island unfreezes, but for now, this will be it.
I don’t use Google Docs much, so here’s a link to it on my DA account. It’s a pdf.
Well, I have all the template stuff pre-made, so If you let me know what they look like, I can easily crank one out for you. (Even if you prefer to use your own design on here, I’ll still probably make a version of it myself, just to have all the same style in my folder,)
Thanks So far I don’t have much planned yet. I’ll probably start prior to the island freeze, and use info from the bios you guys made to get it going.
I’ve been watching a ton of D&D streams lately, so now I really want a Brickonicle D&D. Though I’m not sure if the Matoran would have their own unique class, or just tweaks to existing ones.
Yeah, I’m aware of those too. I started with all the ones that had a more fleshed out bio because they would be easier to use in a story. I’ll probably run through those other ones soon, and start them as just brief appearances if I put them in a story.
Sure. A few of the other MOCs I drew used their own mask designs (or at least the design Noupix did for them), and I mimicked that when I did it myself.
This specific topic was basically a spot for me to post the versions I make, in preparation for a possible story (not so much where other people post them). So if you have some bio info (see the link Bokarda responded with), then you can make your MOC’s individual info post and I’ll link it like I did the others, as well as make a version of them in this style to add on here.
Well, that’s already fairly close to the style I’m doing, so I may not actually do him myself. Also, he’s go a lot going on in that torso, so if I did make him, it’d be the simplified style I used on the others.
If you have any bio info, just make a page (see Bokarda’s link for details) and he’ll be another Matoran I can throw into a story.
Could I just copy your templates based on the first image and use them to create my own self moc image? It would follow Bokarda’s rules and credit to you for the template of course.
If you need any part of that adjusted, just let me know. I use MS Visio for these, which lets me grab every individual part and swap the colors as needed. I currently have all the canon Toa heads/masks saved, along with anything new I make from the MOCs.
Example:
Same goes for anyone’s MOCs I put up here. These are quick to adjust, thanks to the program I use.
I just tinkered around with one of the models on photoshop, I will probably produce a higher resolution image later, once I draw up the sword, hammer and bag.
And finish that G3 LDD moc, finish that other LDD moc and wait for TTV to restart brainstorm. Oh and add to my renegade masks. Is this enough plugging?
I wouldn’t say so. Sig-figs are representations of you in LEGO form, and would be a figure you are known by (like Eljay is known for his Miru). However, these MOCs aren’t necessarily figures that are tied to us. For me, this was the first time I ever made a character to take on my traits and I made it specifically for the G3 story, not for use elsewhere. So I wouldn’t be known by the character.
A few people might use their MOC as a representation of them, so for them it could be called a sig-fig. But since that’s not the case for them all, I use the more generalized term MOC.
So far I don’t have much planned yet. I’ll probably start prior to the island freeze, and use info from the bios you guys made to get it going.
