  1. I just love making small things like that Death Star, and this is no exception. I just love looking at things like that because they all make me smile. And that would definitely be useful if you were making a big Star-Wars scene and needed a Death Star from a distance.Also, TOC, I like how nobody understands these joke MoCs anymore. xD

    Well, although I'll admit that this MoC does have some comical value to it, really I'm presenting it as a legit attempt at creating an admirable piece of artwork. Thanks anyway, though. :)
  2. Oh, don't you see? Haven't you ever heard anyone else that beauty can lie just as much in simplicity as it does in large-scale over-the-top MoCs. Of course, such large scaling in an MoC can allow for the display of great talent in portraying detail and hard work. But the little MoCs, if they're accurate- trust me, they take almost as long. Getting two pieces to work together to portray an accurate Death Star is almost just as impressive as, well, [removed]As Gata Nui once said "one doesn't need many pieces to build cool MoCs", and I would say this to anyone else with enough 100% sincerity, enough so that I can appreciate a Death Star composed of just two pieces.And yes, I have posted this before, but the one before used a stud for a laser, and thus was vastly inferior to this new updated version.

    Okay, okay. Even if this sounds to me like something already heard, this looks too simple, IMHO. It may also resemble the Death Star, but I'd say that Death Star has more details in it. I agree with your words, but I can't see any talent in this. I don't want to make anyone angry or offend anyone, but this is the extreme way of simplyfying.
    But the fact that it's "too simple" (i.e, more simple than even the simplest stuff), only goes to show that it's even more awesome for it's huge amount of simplicity, as accuracy and beauty are difficult to depict on such a small scale, meaning that the fact that this is so unusually simple just makes it better!

  4. I need to replace some pieces, and, due to the number of pieces I need to have replaced, it might sound strange if I call up LEGO and tell them I need like 19 pieces replaced as opposed to 15. So, I was wondering if it was necessary to replace these four socket joint pieces from Kiina. The reason I might need them replaced is because they are cracked in not just one of the archways, but both of them. Here's a picture I took of it:http://www.brickshel...nt/img_1006.jpgAnyway, the reason I made this topic is because I wanted to know if this had ever happened to anyone else or if anyone has heard of it. Anyone know?

  5. I don't feel right about posting this; after having spent a fair amount of tedious time designing it, I realised something really wrong with it, which I had suspected, but didn't realise to be true until I finally rechecked the picture upon which I had based my design: when comparing them, I realised that the wings were WAY too small. Nevertheless, I was certainly not up to designing a new set of even more tedious-to-design, larger, more technical wings, and I was to a large extent very pleased with the neck and head, so I decided I would just leave the thing as it is and post it. Anyway, here's the link:http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/316405

  6. The main concern I have here is that of the head. Redo it as much as you can. Use the same mask, but flip it up 90 degrees to its original position, and try to use the middle of it as the singular eye. That could be a good jumping-off point.I think you should bulk up the torso. At first I thought it was an Inika torso, but then I realized you went with a custom one. The arms might be a little too broad-shouldered. Move them in by a stud or two if you can, either by modifying them or the chest somehow.I like the hammer. Make it bigger, though - usually beings who are named after their weapons have huge ones - think Axonn here.The upper leg armor seems funky, and I believe that could be easily fixed with some minor alterations. They just look a little slanted.

    I appreciate the citicism (that's what I asked forXD), but I think you would be more impressed if you viewed the newly improved photo I have replaced the old one of the MoC in general with. Something about the old one just didn't seem to give me that much of an impression...
  7. Love making animal MoCs. It provides a challenge, and there's a huge amount of things you can build. I also love wolves. With that being said:http://www.mocpages.com/image_zoom.php?mocid=307468&id=/user_images/50082/1328220664m_DISPLAY.jpgHope you like it!

  8. Hey, it's me again. Um, just to clear things up, I'm not asking for help with my OCD- I'm already doing treatment and stuff. it's just that I wanted to know which of those things are logical and which are not to help me enjoy my hobby, not to help me fight my obsessions; thanks for the advice about that anyway, though.Also, I kind of already have as many answers as I want, so would someone please close this?

  9. Um, yeah, I have OCD, ad it's kind of screwing around with my life really badly. Anyway, it's kind of tied into my LEGO hobby in a few ways, and I was wondering what is OCD and what is not. If you wouldn't mind, I would like anyone reading this to please tell me what is OCD and what is not of the following (please keep in mind I am in some sense a collector):-Not wanting pieces from one set to get mixed up with another set's pieces (i.e, wanting every set to be built from pieces out of the box. As you must imagine, this really limits MoCing, forcing me to use just my older brother's collection, which he doesn't mind me using cause he never touches them anymore.-strongly wanting every set I buy to be first-hand material, despite opening the contents of the set anyway (this means going so far as to spend 130 dollars on a mint-condition-straight-from-the-factory-set which I could buy off of my brother in great condition for just 20-40 dollars).-Not wanting to shoot weapons of bionicles at other bionicles due to fear of denting.

  10. Um, yeah, haven't posted anything in a while.XDAnyway, I was just wondering, can soap (liquid, foaming, or bar), or water do any damage to Lego?I was wondering because I recently washed one of my Bionicles with foaming soap (cause it was smelled weird) and when I put it back together, I noticed that 1) the pieces were looser, and 2) when I pulled apart one of the joints to properly dry the knob, it seemed unusually stiff, and it stopped almost halfway apart (not good; almost snapped). So, anyway, grateful for any help. :)
