retinence Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 This is a WIP. I'll be working on this over the next few months in preparation for Brickfair. I ran out of pieces so there won't be other angles. More angles and poses will come when new pieces come in.I'll be posting a couple of new techniques I used on this after the holidays.

Voxumo Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 all i have to say is that if you took a quick glance you would think it is a picture of a real tiger. I really like how you did the feet. and the color scheme just flows so smoothly. with the type of work you did i think you should do more animal mocs because you have a niche for it. What made you want to do this. Also i can't believe it is a work in progress. I cant wait to see the final model.

Zarohum Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 (edited) For a second, I couldn't even see pieces. This has got to be the best MOC I have ever seen. Ever. That's just plain amazing. 100/10.EDIT: Work in progress? No. Don't touch it. DO NOT TOUCH IT! Unless you make the head a little beefier. Besides that, stop working on it. Now.

ankyfdarkness Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Um...This is a WIP. I'm assuming that's a joke, right? This MoC is amazing.The Good:Where to start? This is the most realistic animal MoC I've ever seen. Hands Down. Your mastery over the pieces is incredible. The strips are so perfectly spot on, I'm speechless. The tail looks fantastic. The legs really stand out to me, though. I swear, it's like you used real muscles when building them. The way you arched the back is another fine bit of work. The head is a master piece. The feet are beautiful. I could just keep going on about how great this thing is.The Bad:I can't say anything here. There is nothing "bad" about this MoC. The very thought is ridiculous! That begin said the lower jaw looks a little off, in my opinion. Feels a little too rounded if you know what I mean. But it's a small point. in a sea of awesome.If this doesn't get featured on the front page then I don't know what can. The best MoC I've seen since the new forums went up. I am now and forever will be a big fan of your work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shyyrn Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 ...Someday, mankind will make cybertronic zoos, where beasts fashioned from metal and plastic will roam simulated environments, indistinguishable from the real, flesh-and-bone creatures they emulate.It will be a credit to those future inventors if their creations look as realistic as yours. Keep up the excellent work. :)My mind goes on weird tangents when I'm up late at night,Shyyrn "Let me realize that my past failures at follow-through are no indication of my future performance......They're just healthy little fires that are going to light up my resolve."

Ehlekdude Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 This has got to be, no doubt, the best MOC I've seen since the return of the forums. The colour scheme is brilliant, everything flows nicely. It looks just like a real tiger. Nothing bad here, 1000/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrozenFlash Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 You really put in a lot of effort into that. Great work on the stripes part! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Let's Henshin! Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 This is amazing, the only that I think needs improvement is that the front legs seem very squished together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obsessionist Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Your use of horn pieces to make a full, complete MOC is amazing. I'm surprised you didn't use the part from Jaller Mahri's belly- did you? Besides the back that could potentialy be smoother, this is fantastic, amazing, ultra-realistic. Well done, you never cease to amaze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrickPharaoh Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Did I ever give mention to the fact that tigers are my favorite of all animals? I mean, you gotta love that fiery orange-black striped combination to death! Seriously, if I could choose my own death, I would rather have this dude kill me than any other thing in the world. Yeah. I'm speaking nonsense I know, but I just came back from out of town and I'm exhausted. Aside from that, I jet have to say that your MOCs are downright awesome to the very max. You managed to capture the look of the tiger perfectly in this MOC, and you stayed true to very realistic proportions. I honestly cannot think of anything else to say other than this MOC is probably the best thing I have ever set my eyes upon. Front page material again, you awesome artist, you!

Simulacrum Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 So I heard that there's this cool new moc out. *Checks Topic list, and sees Tiger with ten replies**Peeks into Topic* Who put a picture of a real animal as a mo-Oh. Never mind. Back to the moc:ORANGE. Glorious and fire-y. The use of the spikes were awesome, and the only thing that looked off was the jaw. 9/10.

CaT in Rogue Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 This...is amazing! I've never seen a MOC so perfectly pulled off, and it being a MOC of a real animal makes it even harder to do just that. You have created one of the best MOCs this world will ever see. Amazing job!

Paleo Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 (edited) Amazing MOC. I love the pattern of the stripes, as well as the organic flow to it. The tail seems a bit odd though for some reason.However, I believe this violates the WIP rule in the BBC, unless you won't be reposting it.No 'preview'/'teaser'/WIP topics. You cannot post a topic just to say that you will have a MOC soon, or post a topic with only a silhouette of the MOC or an otherwise intentionally obscured picture. As well, you may not post a topic with a MOC in progress (a 'WIP') with intent to repost the finished product later on in a new topic after getting comments, criticism and ideas on how to continue the MOC. You may only post a topic once you have the actual pictures to post, or a clear, detailed description.Please tell me if I'm mistaken.

King Joe Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 HOLY!This is out of LEGO??It's fantastic. I especially like the use of the Turaga Vakama mask on it's shoulders. I couldn't even tell it was a mask at first.Kudos to you! My Old comics, Of Hedgehogs and Lego Bricks - My Epic, Hero Factory: The Biosteel ChroniclesTrifecta!

Dralcax Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 (edited) Tigers are perfect, the E-pit-o-me of good looks and grace and quiet... uh... um... dignity.Tigers are great! There the toast of the town. Life's always better when a tiger's around!Tigers are nimble and light on there toes, my respect for tigers continually grows-CalvinSeriously, this is awesome. How much articulation do the shoulders have? They look realistic, but not too articulated. And the jaw needs a bit reworking, but the rest seriously looks like a real tiger. And the stripes and body shapes are exactly right (Aside from the aforementiond jaw). Edited December 23, 2011 by Chaos Makuta: Dralcax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NX09 Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 This tiger is AWESOME! I mean, it looks just like a real Tiger! THAT'S SO COOL!
