BlackboltJohnson Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 (edited) I found the Protector of Ice on clearance last night. Had to make the purchase. But immediately after building him, I felt like there was an even cooler looking character just waiting to be built. This guy is the result. Back shot...

BrickPharaoh Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Well, he's definitely cooler than the original (pun observed and repeated for lack of a better phrase). I do like the weapon, but it looks quite impractical to use. Plus, the OCD in me would want something a lot more geometrically organised, potentially involving a 3-axle connector piece, one we see plenty more of than we used to. Oh and if only you'd used some of Strakk's elemental shoulderpads, or the snowflake ones that came with Gelu. Now that would have been truly sub-zero. Oh and one last remark: the back could use some more 'stuff'... not sure what exactly though. Overall, a pretty solid looking figure that has managed to send chills down my spine (pun intended).. although that could be the snow falling right outside my house hahaha XD By the way, having seen some of your other MOCs, I find your use of colour impeccable. Definitely looking forward to more! Quote "Welcome to Valhalla, Warrior."

MrSciFiGuy Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Whoa, looks very cool. Weapon seems a bit unwieldy, but other than that I love the legs and how you incorporated the eye stalks.

Obsessionist Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Beautiful use of different armor elements! I love the long, elegant arms and furry lets. Wonderful use of black skeleton bits as well. My favorite part is probably the flexible hosing on the torso. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onaku Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Awesome moc all around, but where do those black skeleton pieces come from? Quote BZPRPG Profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dallior Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Awesome moc all around, but where do those black skeleton pieces come from?I think they might be... painted. *T1S faints* That transgression aside, this is a mighty-fine MOC. I like the use of the tubes and the staff especially. Quote "Remember when the comics forum had a lot of good stuff?

SynthMav Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Awesome moc all around, but where do those black skeleton pieces come from?I think they might be... painted. *T1S faints* or maybe 3d printed *someone faints somewhere* Quote The Mavrick thanks to Starwars ep. 7 for the avatar pic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackboltJohnson Posted January 31, 2016 Author Share Posted January 31, 2016 (edited) Thanks for the compliments everyone. Just wanted to clear something up though - those skeletal limbs aren't actually black. They're the same gray ones you find in the 2015 sets. They just look black because of the high contrast setting on my iPhone camera. I had to turn it up all the way or else you wouldn't be able to see the figure against the light colored background.

Storm Verse Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 I've seen some of your old MOCs before, and I have to say, this is a lot cooler (puns are puns) than what I've come to expect of you. Nicely done. Quote Currently entering Phase One, with 3% chance of complete personality breakdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
