IcarusBen Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 (edited) Here's the gist; A new Makuta is invading an island called Vesoh Nui. The Toa Nuva are Turaga now, and the Toa Mahri are missing. But, when all seems lost, a new Toa team arrives to kick Makuta behind. Unfortunately, a new colonial government from beyond the stars is arriving and they don't seem to care for the Matoran. (In actuality, this was so I could use some HF pieces that don't work with Bionicle themes.) I'll update this list whenever I can. Until then, here ya' go. Prototype Guardian mk.1 Prototype Guardian mk.1 Piece count: 46 pieces Description: Built by the colonists from Hero Factory as a weapon to use against the Matoran, the Prototype Guardian is based on the bio-mechanical tech found on the remains of several fallen Toa. Equipped with two protosteel claws and a backwards-engineered Kanohi Hau, this prototype was SUPPOSED to be a great weapon. However, because of the sloppy engineering techniques used by Hero Factory, the prototype went rogue and started trying to defend the people of Spherus Magna.

Specter Knight Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Nice Build and concept. I like how you used the Classic Bionicle elements and gears to give the Guardian a retro feel.Also, I think spoilers work by Putting in white text against a white background so people can't see it until they highlight it.Hope this helps, and I hope to see more of your work!

Makuta Luroka Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 There is a spoiler tag, but it is generally only to be used under certain circumstances. [spoiler] text [/spoiler] I definitely like the concept and the build is rather interesting. I look forward to seeing more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mate.397 Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 LDD should add a feature that gives the creation weight so it can be accurate to a real life construct, because this thing would collapse the second you try to pose it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysterious Minifig Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 It looks very interesting, although it doesn't seem like it's complete. It seems like it should be a four legged machine and the way you have it posed it's standing on it's back legs. The color scheme works well though, even though it doesn't have a lot of variety. I would try to add a head or something behind the mask because right now it looks like the mask is floating in space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IcarusBen Posted November 17, 2014 Author Share Posted November 17, 2014 Firstly, thanks to Luroka for the spoiler tag. Secondly, to Mate, my computer is a serious lemon. If it had to simulate physics as well as render pieces... Oh, god, the Matoran-ity! Thirdly, to Minifig, the reason it's on it's back legs is because I couldn't fit those things next to the arms, so I stuck them behind it. This thing is supposed to be a serious prototype, so that's why it's so incomplete and primitive. I'll update later with the mk.2 prototype, which has MOVING GEARS!!! Admittedly, said gears are rather decorative and the actual action is controlled by a single lever that moves both arms in the same direction, but I'll save proper gear motion for the mk.3 edition. I just need to fix up the colors and then I'll work on the mk.3.

Meiko Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 What colour are the gears and whatnot? Titanium metallic?

IcarusBen Posted November 26, 2014 Author Share Posted November 26, 2014 Titanium metallic and everything else is black. I have a couple of things I want to work on before I post them, but I also have two RL creations I want to post here.
