Latest MOC

Postby JoshWedin » Wed Jun 28, 2006 10:04 am

Hey All,

I've been a bit busy lately, working on my latest MOC. I'm curious what you all think about it.

Here is a picture.

Comments and criticisms are welcome!

Josh

PS. This particular MOC weighed 10 lbs 6 ozs and is 21 1/4 inches long...and we call him "Leif". :)

Congratulations Josh! I'm so happy for you :). The overall idea is good, but it needs more landscaping. Also, does it have an interior? And finally, approximately how many bricks are spent on building it?

For a moment there, I thought, "why was this put in announcements? It should've been pot in 'general lego' or 'castle mocs'." Then, I saw the pic. Congradulations, Josh! :)

Out of curiosity, is this particular MOC static or articulated? If articulated, did you use any of the techniques from Sava's dragons? or bionicle? (hopefully not Galidor!!!!)

Congratulations to the parents!

Hey All!

Thanks for the congratulations. Mother and baby are doing very well and things are just getting settled down, which is why I have some online time avaliable. :) Thanks again!

You're right, needs more landscaping. I assume it has an interior, "stuff" keeps coming out of it. :shock:

BFOD sounds good! :)

Yes, sir, it is!

Thanks, its not an original idea. A few people have done this before. :)

That too! ;)

Sometimes its static and sometimes it's very articulated! And I'm not discussing my techniques involved in this MOC (I'm blushing now and can't believe you asked that, Alan :shock:), but I am intrigued by the reference to Anthony's dragon techniques. Definitely too much information there! ;)

There have been a few!

Actually, that was my first response!

Take care,
