As previously announced, I am developing more units by using the frames from the first Type Axiom, the BloodCross (referred as Unit 00).
Few updates on the design:
1. New arm-shoulder connection: it is hard to tell here but will be explained in the tutorial later.
2. New arm design: I took the cones I used for the legs of Type Abyssus as the arms for Unit 01 to beef up the scale. I keep the ideas of the shoulder shape, which will be a permanent element for all the Axioms.
3. New leg scales: In order to make leg not look comparably skinnier than arms, I scale up the calf and thighs.
4. New head design: well it is from the new series I was planning as a design language for the new series but to make each Unit different, I borrow the ideas plus it looks a little too small if I copy the Unit 00’s head for this body
5. New feet design: I really like the feet. Without covering the studs, it looks very much like feet armours to me instead of shoes.
6. No new weapon yet: I took the weapons from Type Atlas, but am thinking to make a glider, something like Gundam Altas if you know what I am talking about.
What do you think about this unit? Leave your comments below!
I used two flashes for this. One lighting the front of the mini figure, and one behind, giving the blue light from the forge which has nicely spilled out onto the floor this side of the forge door.
The new-and-improved Lego FinFin model is here! I will be working on the instructions over the next while. He is articulated at several points, and can be placed on a stand to display him in flight! The wings can be attached in neutral position, or outstretched by using a small additional piece. Thank you for the support!
It's a beautiful day out today after lots of rain and wind for over a week.
I had built these mushrooms for another project that I ended up abandoning so this was a nice way to spruce up a minifig portrait with more LEGO to make it stand out.
I had already used the same location near my home to show a canoe falling into the waterfall. But I wanted to take the storytelling a step further and feature a team of unhappy pirates who had made the wrong choices and were about to lose their entire fortune!
I'd like to take this opportunity to share some behind-the-scenes footage with you ;)
