Lego City of Heroes

[goodtime]

Well, you could always go SNOT (Studs Not On Top), which is a common way to make medium-sized lego spheres like this one: http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Make-a-Lego-Ball/ .  Though it'd probably be a bit annoying to set up in LDD.  I haven't played with it in a long while, so I'm not sure what's in the current parts list.  There's the 10 x 10 x 4 Octagonal Canopy ( http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=2598 ), but that only ever came in tan or transparent colors, and counted as a windscreen. :/

There are several globes and spheres available for download at the Lego Designer site.    For example, my poor attempt at Atlas.

Few small updates today.

I'm still working on the PPD Drone.  Got a couple ideas on how to make it better but will have to wait and see how they turn out.  Recluse is about as good as he's going to get given the medium.  I just have no idea how to make 8 articulated legs on the back of a minifig.






Ouroboros portal, Aspect of the Pillar of Ice and Flame, and the first face you see in Ouroboros: The Pilgrim.

I have a few things started but aren't quite close to completion.  A lot of my work is based on when I get moments of inspiration on how to make something work.  I've got an Arachnos Toxic Tarantula and a Vanguard HVAS I'm working on, and I've been toiling around with thoughts on how to do a Longbow Flier.

I honestly think a lot of this would be a lot easier if I were able to use pieces from Mega Bloks, too, like their sloped bricks with studs that Lego has nothing similar to.

For Recluse's arms, you may want to look at using the octagonal 2x2 bar frame plate ( http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=75937 ) or two of the 1x2 angled handles plate ( http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=92692 ) for the backpack, which would provide you with enough attachment points.  For the arms themselves, the mechanical arms ( http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=30377 , http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=59230 ) may be worth checking out, if they're in LDD.

Up next I think I'm going to try an Arachnos Tarantula.

If you can look a parts list for the lord of the rings shelob kit, that could very well be doable. And now I want to turn mine into a toxic tarantula...

This is so insanely cool!
