NEED: MOCs for a Black Light Display at Bricks Cascade

I don't think I've mentioned this before, but it's been on my mind for a while.

 

I'm going to be setting up a small black light display at BricksCascade. Unfortunately, I only have one decent MOC that's made out of fluorescent colors. Last time, I just made a quick mash up of all my decent pieces that would look good... but it was a messy design. Instead, I would rather share the display with two-three other Toa sized characters, which is about what I think can fit inside the display. If you've built something that is made with a lot of trans neon green, trans bright green, trans neon orange, or trans medium blue (AKA colors that look awesome under a black light) and will have it on display at BricksCascade, then let me know. (Or you can make one... still have a month left. Although it took four months for me to get mine together, after various redesigns and parts orders.)

 

Anyway, wanted to put that out there. I think it'll technically qualify for the Lights and Action theme for the BZPower MOC circuit, anyway. (Also, no, I am not sending my black light display to any of the other conventions, it's a little too bulky for that.)

I'll try to put something together when I'm home next week. Unfortunately the only LEGO I have with me here at university is two Protectors.

What color is trans neon orange? Is it Trans Bright Orange or Trans Fluorescent Redorange? I'm guess the latter but want to check. Also if you know the Bricklink color name that would be great too.

 

All that said, I'm not sure I'll make something in time, but I do have an idea for a MOC with transparent pieces and I figure if I can make it look cool under a black light, why not?

Which two protectors? Three of the Protectors have shells or beams which would glow under a blacklight: Protector of Stone (Trans. Fluor. Green beams and blended mask), Protector of Fire (Trans. Fluor. Reddish Orange shells and fists), and Protector of Jungle (Trans. Bright Green shells and blended mask). You might be able to come up with something if you have one or more of the above.

Trans. Neon Orange is Trans. Fluor. Reddish Orange, and glows strongly under a blacklight. Trans. Bright Orange also glows faintly under a blacklight (early instances of this color sometimes didn't glow to quite the same extent, but as far as I can tell current parts in this color glow much more consistently). Of course, Trans. Bright Orange is a far less common color in constraction.

Excellent - thanks!
