BrickCurve Posted June 14, 2016 Nice one, are those the legs from the CMF faun? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheLegoDr Posted June 14, 2016 You usually come up with interesting piece usages. I wonder if maybe the front would work with a 1x2 curved slope instead of just a 1x2 tile? I don't know if the 1x2 baby slopes come in red-brown, but it might flow a bit better there. I don't particularly care for the cheese slope on the back, but the rest seems to work pretty well for scaling purposes. Technically the horse body may be a bit small compared to a "real" centaur, but for LEGO, this works. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ACPin Posted June 14, 2016 Nice one, are those the legs from the CMF faun? Yes they are. You usually come up with interesting piece usages.

Technically the horse body may be a bit small compared to a "real" centaur, but for LEGO, this works. There's no 1x2 that curves both ways and tried it going up but the body will not be aligned. So got stuck with this for the meantime. AC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leonardo da Bricki Posted June 14, 2016 For those who are not true purists, I believe http://brickforge.com is still selling centaur bodies with weapons and armor, if you want an aesthetically better centaur. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That would be too easy! :D This had to happen eventually, didn't it? Nice work. Somebody had to do it! Oh man... this works out sooo nicely!!!! Got to find more Fauns.

General Magma Posted June 16, 2016 Awesome, well done. I've always liked the Brickforge one but that one had no poseability whatsoever. Which isn't always needed, but I'd rather be able to make it stand in various ways, like you can do with this one. So - great job! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tezclatipoca Posted June 19, 2016 Great centaur ! I find myself the faun CMF inspiring to build some other creatures. I should try to finish my idea, but I need more faun too ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Better get them while you can as they're already disappearing from the stores. AC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
