Skeleton Horse

Post by BuilderQ »

As part of the castle Adventurers line I am building, I decided to construct a skeleton horse:

Looks good. Forgot about those sign pieces that you used for the joints. Well done. I might try and find one of those white horse helms from HP to really make it look great, but I understand the red goes with the saddle and it all goes good too.

Nice work.

I saw this on BS a few weeks ago and was impressed by the creativity put into it. I really like the use of the Sign posts. I aslo like the skeletal rider that goes along with it.

Overall Great Job on the project. Can't wait to see some more poseable Skelatel or other beasts and creations!

Wow, this is really awesome! Most skeleton horses look really bad to me, but you did a wonderful job on this one, man.

Keep it up!

Awesome! This is the best skeleton horse I've seen(outside of that 'official' one). I may have to borrow your design sometime...

This is really really cool... Well done! I didn't even know most of these pieces existed.

I've seen a lot of attempts at this kind of thing (including my own), and this beats them all.

Cool use of signposts and technic parts! Perhaps some more ribs would look even better, but I'm not sure how you could attach them.

Anyway, great work!

Those are not signposts, but those airline waving-thingies, whatever they are called.

Very good use of them! Nice skelly horse! :D

Sorry Arwen... I'm afraid a lot of the other members could take better guesses on how to make this than me... I'm not even sure what all the needed parts are... signs for legs? Airline waving-thingies? It's all greek (town) to me! :oops:

Umm... it looks like she wants to see what you did yourself. You mentioned, here:

that you had tried something yourself. From the look of it, Arwen is assuming that you had finished something, and wants to see it.

Of course, I could be wrong...
