Frost Giant

Post by The Hordesman »

I actually liked Bionicles when it got out somewhat, though some pieces are waayy too specialized and lego overexaggerated the series for many years to come. Yet it was very useful for making monsters etc(Im bad when it comes to building them with bricks, and bionicle is good for poses). I only bought 3 sets. Recently, I thought it was time to make something decent out of it. I took the white "Bohrak" pieces and remade the old troll I made (which was awful) into a much nicer thing:

THE FROST GIANT!
I used normal bricks for the head and the hammer is made from a lance, a pike and some pieces you can easily recognize. The only thing that isnt lego is the beard, which "is" the giant really, without it it just looks stupid. And yes, its just a piece of paper :)

It's looking good, but we need photos from the sides and back too.

I particularly like the face. That is well rendered.

"And since when did you, Thor the giantslayer and thundergod, care about giants?"
"Well, you see, we did discover his dark secret- he has no mouth."
"Yes, but he was made from Bionicle."
"Perhaps your right, are you by any chance the god of something Loki? Ive allways wondered."
"No, you see, Im a half-tro... I mean, Im the god of decei... No Im the god of... Bravery!"
"Oh, like all of us then?"
"Uhm... Yeah..."

That's good work. I especially liked the paparazzi shot. It was so... sneaky.... The beardless picture was kinda cool. It reminds me of when I get up in the morning.
