The Cloud Beast
Loosely based on Chinese guardian lions or 'foo dogs' as some call them. This MOC was a fun exercise in using Lego cloth elements as a flexible skin around an inner frame. The result is a very cohesive look with some fun patterns that would be very hard to achieve otherwise.
The MOC has several points of articulation that allow it to take a natural sitting pose. One rotation in the torso behind the shoulders, hollow thighs for the back legs to fold up, and a rotation at the base of the tail.
The detail I'm most proud of however is the plant sprue pieces used for the lips. This is my last MOC for 2022, I hope you all like it!
