Gamma Dragon

[Gamma-Ray]

The Gamma Dragon flys high into the sky to absorb gamma rays usually shielded by the atmosphere.  Theses rays allow for tremendous power and give it a glowing appearance.

I finally got a chance to put the head used for my profile picture into a moc!

Thanks for checking it out! Let me know what you think.

That huge grin mixed with the animated look of it makes me feel like a monster right out of the Dreamworks: Dragons series. Also, that abundance of Metru Blue shells 

 

The upside-down claws look a bit odd, but they somehow fit the overall look of the beast. Nice work!

That head and the glow are kinda freaky, but it's cool because of that. It's outstanding.

[Millennium]

Holy Mata Nui cow.

 

That thing is frightening, Gadunka's head never looked so good - and scary. The trans-red creates an awesome and creepy and totally new look to that piece. Wings are cool, size is impressive, combination of old and new Bionicle is lovely.

Those parts glow in the dark!

Cool

So is your MOC that thing is a work of Bionicle art.

This is an incredible MOC! However, could you make the images/thumbnails link to either the Flickr pages or higher-resolution images, instead of to themselves? It's very difficult to make out the details in some of them.

 

From what I can tell, the curves are incredible, and you did a great job with the colors. The use of the very rectilinear solar panel pieces from the old Discovery sets is unconventional for a dragon but works very, very nicely on this one!

 

I hope you get an opportunity to show this beauty off at a LEGO convention!

Someone call a vet, because this dragon is sick!

 

No but seriously, this has got to be one of the best dragon MOCs I've seen in years.

[Gamma-Ray]

Thanks for the support everyone! 

 

Aanchir, good catch on those links.  I've updated the description, the link there should take you to the pictures on flickr!

That smile is awesome! What a great build. And it's also much larger than it seems much like the Thunder Dragon build from a couple days ago.

Only gripe I have is that I feel that the wings are too high up on the body, I think if they were situated in between the legs it would look more balanced. IMO, that would be pretty fitting for a serpentine dragon. Also, since I'm assuming the wings articulate, if you posed them not fully extended it would look better as it wouldn't have that gap in between the panels.

 

Other than those to minor gripes I think it looks great! Good work man.

 

Edited because I said "I think" at least seven times.

I'm honestly surprised this never got featured.  It's fantastically well-made.

It's a dragon and it glows in the dark, I'm a fan of it just for that. But you have so many other things that can't be over looked, the way you went about doing the scales is so well done. The mouth looks as dangerous as it would be. And I rather like how the claws on it's feet go upwards. Great job on this!
