Takanuinuva Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) I wanted something to hold my extra Toa masks when they were wearing either there standard or golden one. So I made a Suva Design in LDD .LXF file http://www.brickshel...i_suva_2015.lxf Here are some long overdue IRL pictures. The Golden Skull Spider Mask takes the place of the Mask of Creation. Once I get it. I will add pictures with the MOCR on the stand http://www.brickshel...suvareal001.jpg http://www.brickshel...suvareal002.jpg http://www.brickshel...suvareal003.jpg http://www.brickshel...suvareal004.jpg http://www.brickshel...suvareal005.jpg http://www.brickshel...suvareal006.jpg http://www.brickshel...suvareal007.jpg I had promised pictures when I got the Mask of Creation but I held them off when if found out Uniter Lewa had trans apple green bohrok eyes. So without further ado. Here is the updated version. With the paper base from the Gold Grinder mask polybag http://www.brickshel...nohisuva008.jpg http://www.brickshel...nohisuva009.jpg http://www.brickshel...nohisuva010.jpg Edited June 1, 2016 by Takanuinuva Quote
Saberwing40k Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 This is pretty cool, but do the masks go over those connectors IRL? Also, where/how did you come up with the name? Just looking at this, you'd almost think that this was a set, maybe something that was an accessory for the Mask Maker. Quote

But only on the slot where there isn't an axle. As for the name it's from Generation 1 of Bionicle http://biosector01.c.../index.php/Suva Edited February 27, 2015 by Takanuinuva Quote
MakutaOfWar Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) That's pretty awesome, I love when constraction and technic pieces are used for things non-figure/vehicle such as scenery, just gives a cool vibe to complement collections. I've only tried MoCing miscellaneous' s like weapon racks for HF though, nothing Bionicle sadly. I also like the use of the Bohrok eyes to represent the masks, very nice. Makes me miss those 2001 cannisters though. ;-; I had two Tahu Mata's and didn't even keep one cannister. I was a dumb kid... Also are Gali's and Kopaka's Bohrok eyes the same trans color?

They are not. Gali's is Trans Dark Blue and Kopaka's is Trans Light Blue. LDD's color pallete makes them look the same. Quote
Rayskull Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 That's pretty cool...awaits physical pics Quote
Crabster Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 (edited) Very good idea. I keep my gold masks on the shelf and I put them on toa very seldom and for a very short period of time because I'm afraid to lose the masks. Your sollution solves all the problems. I must try to build it. Edited February 28, 2015 by Crabster Quote
DuckBricks Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Apologies for reviving this thread, but I decided to make my own version of this with very slight modifications... It works well and looks really cool! Quote

But It looks like the 6 connectors for the Toa's mask look like they would turn a bit. Do they stay perfectly straight? Edited August 8, 2015 by Takanuinuva Quote
Zorglorfian Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 This looks amazing! Will there be instructions or a parts list? I really want to build this for my masks. Thank you! Quote

DuckBricks Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Not to shabby. But It looks like the 6 connectors for the Toa's mask look like they would turn a bit. Do they stay perfectly straight? They stay straight due to the technic beams with studs on the end Quote
Takanuinuva Posted June 1, 2016 Author Posted June 1, 2016 First post has been updated with new pictures Quote
xboxtravis7992 Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 Oh wow that's beautiful! I might have to steel your LDD file sometime. :) Quote
Lyichir Posted June 1, 2016 Posted June 1, 2016 Very neat design! It seems to work great and I love the color added by the Bohrok eyes. Quote
