A moc up of Surel I’ve been throwing around for a while, what do you think?
I am open to ideas to make it more accurate, as well any build ideas on his staff.
And of course he needs his helmet 3D modeled, unfortunately I have no skills in that area.
And here’s the only visual size comparison we have.
Nice start. But even after looking at that drawing and your Moc next to the wolf I would say he’s too small. Plus could Dow it’s spikes on the thighs.
A few weeks ago I was thinking about how it was strange that there weren’t any surel Mocs, considering the artwork clearly shows some real lego pieces. I’d say this is pretty accurate, but there are still some things that could be slightly improved on.
For example, the upper arms could be made better. In the artwork, actual limb looks darker, so I suggest using a Metru blue limb piece from Gali Mistika.
Also, the feet could be made more accurate by using a more custom build.
Lastly, I think that the pelvis piece should be made white instead of blue. It looks blue in the artwork, but I feel like it’s more because of the lighting. The light blue doesn’t fit that well into the color scheme.
Overall, pretty good!
Thanks for the advice!
Now that you’ve pointed it out, I agree about the shoulder and the hips.
Though looking at it again, I think the feet might be the round Inika feet.
When I get the time, I’ll try using those instead!
hmm, you might be right about the feet being Inika feet. The right foot sort of looks like it, anyway. The left foot doesn’t look like it matches, but maybe that’s just me.
I have an idea for how you could do the staff, but I’ll have to check on which colors some parts come in. I’ll do that tomorrow since it’s getting late (in my timezone, at least)
Nice Surel moc and with his helmet Galva actually made it but it’s in his stud.io pack.
@SomeBionicleFan23 Really! Where would I be able to find it?
@Atobe_Brick Fixed his feet, tried the dark blue in the arms, didn’t look good either. So I tried black, fits very nicely.
Looks good! Looking at the artwork again, I think that black was the right choice.
What have you though about using for the staff?
Funny. I always thought the wolf was too big.
I just noticed that in the first drawing, his pelvis piece is seemingly attached normally, whereas in the second drawing it looks like it was moved down a peg.
So if you want to make him taller compared the iron wolves, you could lower the pelvis, and it’d still be accurate. Also remember that the helmet will make him a little taller.
Or you could try to downscale the wolves, although I think that would be difficult without losing accuracy.
@akirk47 I am still working on it, trying out bohrok eyes, haven’t gotten anything really worth showing though.
@Atobe_Brick Personally, I am going to stick with the individual shot of Surel, ya he’s a bit shorter, but we get a clear picture. Plus it’s the original.
I really don’t want to scale down the wolf! 
, it took way to long to figure out how that was built.
