This is in my portfolio because it represents my summer vacation this past year.This past summer I made a group of friends that will stay with me until the end of my life. I love my band of brothers to death and I will always be here for them. This was taken when we went to santa cruz this past summer and everything was just fun. And i realized that our time together is limited and i want to enjoy it as much as i can.
So I decided that i wanted to do a little more than just take a photo of myself and then edit. This time I decided to take a a photo of me at Twin Lakes Beach in Santa Cruz and photoshopped a mask instead of my face using the masking tool. The album cover I got the mask from was made by an MC named Dumbfoundead. (He posted a picture of me on his Instagram :D)
I'm getting back into Bionicle since it's returning soon, so this is what I've been working on for the past week or two.
A few things to note about this:
- I realise the upper arms are rather basic, this was because I wanted a decent amount of possibility near the wings for the arms. I might have been able to get around this but I didn't really focus much on that part as they aren't very visible (especially from behind because of the wings).
- The cordak blaster being a bow serves little practical purpose, it's for style more than anything.
I probably need some practise if I'm going to get into Bionicle MOCing, so expect a lot more in the future. They should get better over time.
This was the first piece of furniture I bought with my first Canadian job back in '91! It was due for an updated look. It's moved with me to each apartment I had back in college and now to the country, so it's a well traveled dresser ~ LOL!
My first attempt at a revamp, the classic LEGO Technic set "Fire Slizer" from the Slizers/Throwbots theme. Also my first photoshop attempt to place my characters in a detailed background. Stay tuned for more, Ice Slizer coming in a few days!
This short trail had all kinds of surprises, and this one was impossible to miss. Bright purple graffiti on an old foundation wall surrounded by trees and other plants.
revamped packaging. little kraft bags taped with gold japanese washi tape instead of the bronze tissue paper - which was such a huge pain to wrap.
I think it's pretty cute, if I do say so myself.
LDD recently added the Kanohi Hau from the BIONICLE Stars sets, and that inspired me to revisit the Hero Factory–based Tahu revamp I had created here. This time around, however, Tahu has exactly the same piece count as his original form (33), stands at about the same height, and uses only parts that have actually appeared in sets.
The blendy firesword was just me photoshopping a screenshot with a Tr. Bright Orange blade and a screenshot with a Tr. Red blade together — sadly, LDD doesn't currently support multicolor with that part!
Just a revamp that was originally going to be my entry to the Alternate Self MOC Contest but it looked too much like Nuparu. :3
My personal revamp of Ekimu. Originally, I tried to get a look similar to how he appears in the Journey to One Netflix series, but I couldn't figure out the shoulder plates, so it turned out like this instead. :P
Reworking the Duke model. The 3d printed model was stripped down and given a ton of body work to make it nice and suitable for molding.
NOE614R in the Midland Red Coaches fleet was rebuilt with a Yorkshire traction front and really made it look modern it is of course a Leyland Leopard / Plaxton Supreme 3 C49F
This is a Bionicle Dark Hunter that I started building. It started looking too much like Corroder (www.brickset.com/detail/?set=7156-1), so I went with that. Sorry about the bad photo quality, the pic was a rush job. Enjoy!
I just love the look of classic American schoolbuses and have had this particular model for several years. However, recently I built a minifig school bus, and it actually looked better than my old large scale model. Time to revamp it!
In my garden.
Rotten sleepers replaced with brick, and slabs repointed. Tubs thinned out and a few new grasses and ferns to replace the inevitable casualties of the makeover.
My initial version of Agent Janus was a wee bit dumpy looking. That was not quite the look I had in mind, so here's the revamped version. Hey, you try making an attractive-looking woman out of LEGO on this scale!
The Revamp project uses reclaimed materials to create Eco-friendly couture fashion.
Eh... I must confess... the centre piece was from my main line jewellery. But the back loop for threading was squashed during the baking process. Stort of B product. I repair and glued onto crocheted necklace body.
Ivory coloured plastic beads necklace is a "genuine junk" from CR charity shop.
Too cheap looks in it's own right, however I mixed into crocheted ribbon body, then It gives nice stiffness and texture to it.
Legendary Toa of Fire, Lhikan was Metru Nui's sole guardian. In the past, Lhikan led a team of toa against the fearsome Kanohi Dragon, and later, the Dark Hunters. Despite countless betrayals, Lhikan continued to protect the Matoran. He sacrificed his power to create 6 new toa, the Toa Metru, becoming a Turaga himself.
Alternative shots of the Moc. Unlike the set version, he can hold his swords like he does in the movie.
More to come!
Finally got around to posting this, he’s been sitting on my desk for 5 months already.
Around the end of last year, I saw Joshua Johnson's magnificent Iruini revamp (flic.kr/s/aHskM3zNRb) and decided that my Lhikan could use some beefing up. I borrowed his leg design, and built everything else to scale - this is the first Moc I've done at this sort of size, so I'm not entirely confident about adding all the bulk that Iruini has.
The armpits of all my Mocs in the past have been massive, so I wanted to change that for this revamp. I’m rather satisfied with the result, Lhikan is far more posable than he was, but at the cost of being a touch more fragile. The CCBS shell in the torso is held in place by a single 3L rod angled into a slizer foot, and part of the shell is pushed against a 4L cross axle. It tends to pop out most of the time (some of the pictures reflect this…), which is a shame. I really wanted to use Lhikan’s original swords, but they just weren’t big enough, so Master Tahu’s swords were used instead, albeit with custom handles.
Additionally, this revamp was an ideal time to test out my new lightbox. Looking back at the photos, the lighting probably wasn’t bright enough, so that’s something to work on next time. Regardless, any feedback on photos or Moc are welcome, thanks for looking!
Hi, just a little sign of life from me^^. I'm really busy right now, I have found a job, so I'm working full time now. Also I'm in the middle of moving to another city. Most of my dolls and supplies are packed away and I don't have much free time anyway right now. I'm working on a little modding / face-up project now and then, but I don't know when I will finish it, or when I come back to my dolls in a regular scheme.

So, I'm happy I can show my newest BJD purchase at least: a wonderful Supia Eunice head who replaced my LLT Edria head as Severine^^
Here's my entry for the first day of VignWeek 2022. The prompt is Classic Set Revamp and I chose set 6949 Robo-Guardian from 1994.
www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=6949-1#T=...{%22iconly%22:0}
I owned the set as a kid, so I still has some parts and I managed to keep some of the key feature of the set.

Check out the video about this build here:
This is a creation I’ve been working on for quite some time, ever since the Ziontyro released these glorious custom Kraahkan Kanohi. Almost an entire year in the making!
8593 Makuta has always been a set that was near and dear to my heart, though a figure that was very quickly superseded by larger titan builds. With this revamp, my objective was to restore some of the lost height and articulation, so he can stand tall against the other titans of the BIONICLE line.
The legs in particular draw inspiration from the design of @ibukkey00 while much of the upper body design was created by @fnezj, who gave me many helpful tips during the build process.
Please let me know what you think of this creation with a thoughtful comment below!
