Crustaceous Revisited

Remember Crustaceous? I built him in the Spring/Summer of 2008, and is probably my best MOC to date, at least as far as Bionicle MOCs are concerned.

 

Well, being old, and having already seen three conventions, I decided it was time to mix things up before he made his third BrickFair appearance. So I made him a crutacean-minotaur.

I kept one arm, sort of a Davy Jones thing going for him. I knew I wanted to use the Axonn mask when searching through my collection. So now the challenge was building the torso and making it fit in smoothly with the body. If I had had more time I probably would have given him a better staff, but I was running out of time. I had started working on a torso at July's WAMALUG meeting, but to almost no avail, aside from thinking about color combinations amongst black, silver, and gunmetal. (For I had blended in everything else in well, especially after adding on the gunmetal Bitil wing.)

 

Luckily Arpy was able to help me finish it right before BrickFair. (What a lifesaver!)

 

I do not know what will happen with him next. I had hoped to disassemble him by now for the pieces, but obviously that did not happen, but I do not mind. He looks cool on my LEGO shelf in my room. Hopefully he will become part of a big summer project (no, I have no idea what that will be, other than that I want to make some more Bionicle MOCs (despite my losing my touch due to lack of Bionicle building because of college) and have some bigger-than-Toa stuff at BF11).
