The mythical moc contest

Basically, create a moc based on a mythical creature.
I expect more than just dragons, there are so many different mythical creatures from so many cultures. lamia, centaurs, wendigo, oni, just to name a few more well known examples.

The rules:
-you have two weeks, use it, don’t just slap something together, I expect nice looking, decently built mocs, even if you build something in a day, spend a few days refining it, once you enter that’s it, no updates.
-I’d prefer to not have this spill out into the rest of the cc, post your moc here, whether directly or deeplinked from imgur/Flickr.
-photos need to be front, back, and side(sides if asymmetrical), plus one optional additional shot, please have good lighting and clear images, if I can’t tell what’s going on the moc can’t be judged.

your moc will be judged as such:
10-build
-5-construction
-3-flow
-2-color scheme
5-creativity
For a total possible score of 15
I should point out, I won’t be the only judge.

The winner gets an art, pretty much whatever they want me to draw, within reason. Sorry, that’s the best I got.

Oh, and have fun or whatever.

But dost thou draw well, is my question?
Because if you do, I’d totally enter and try to have you draw me a Civil War poster…
:blush:

Well, I made my avatar, and I have some other art on the boards.
Decide for yourself.

I have a previously built MOC that I haven’t posted on the boards yet. could I enter it, or should I just build something else?

I won’t say it’s not allowed, but it does kinda give people an advantage if they had a head start.

Obviously if it hasn’t been posted I can’t tell, but I would say, if you spent more than the time frame(2 weeks) on it, it’s a bit unfair to other entrants.

actually, I built it in one night

but if you want, I can just try for something else

I’ll leave it up to your discretion.

ehhh, I guess I’ll go with a new creature just because.

I want to do this.
I’ll think about it.

Posting now so I will remember.

Definitely starting on this when I have the time.

Welp, time to hit the D’aulaires’ books of myths. I’m certain I can find something I can get to work on Friday.

I think I’m gonna look around in Norse mythology.
I love that stuff.

I’ll enter. Although, define mythical- do you mean ancient, like minotaurs and cimaras, or could I do something like a sasquatch or a chupacabra or the like?

I was thinking more ancient, but if you think you can pull off a newer myth I’m not gonna stop you.

This is my BIONICLE INTERPRETATION of the mythical beast known as the Krampus (or the Christmas Devil (I don’t have a picture of it atm, so just Google it)). I built this a while back and I thought it would be perfect for this contest, although I am not sure if you want the MOCs to be freshly built. The Krampus in mythology is supposedly a goat-like being (sort of like the Pope-Lick Goatman (again, go look it up)) that works with Santa and punishes the naughty children by beating them with a stick and dragging them in a sack to Hell (Wikipedia). If you Google the Krampus, you will see it as having black fur, again, this is my BIONICLE INTERPRETATION of it, I know it is supposed to be black, I simply wanted to give it an interesting color scheme. So, here you go (I hope I win):

Hope you like it :slight_smile:

How many can we enter?

I have to uphold my own rules, I need a side and back shot for judging.

One, for the sake of equal chances.

Ok, and can it be system? Also, can we submit a Moc already made?

I’d like some constraction, though system can certainly be used.
