Tomcat RIO Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 Looked around the forums and figured this would be the best place for this MOC. Mods if this is not the right section then I apologise, do move it to the right subforums. Introducing, Athena the Greek Goddess Helmet and torso is from the emperor in temple of atlantis. Shield is a fountain piece from creator family house. Face and cape from princess tamina of POP set. Nike the minigod messenger is the gold champion trophy from karate Minifig. trident plus gold telescope smiling Athena, goddess and protector of Athens of the Greeks. Warrior and angry Athena, defender of Athens a part of an upcoming MOC, using the ToA column bricks.. this is what i intend to build. a mini version of the Parthenon, Akropolis in Athens, with a chamber for Athena.

LuxorV Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 Nice purist custom I like your choice of parts and the great resemblance to the original. Really good job! Quote
PirateMatt Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 Wow, nice minifig, I like it Are you going to make more Greek gods? Quote

AmiPolizeiFunk Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 (edited) Nice one. So sad that not much of the original remains, apart from a few drawings and re-creation models. I don't think anybody really knows what she looked like. More LEGO interpretations from Athens would be incredible... I can think of a few sculptures in particular from the National Archaeological Museum that would be fantastic Lego-ized. Edited August 20, 2011 by AmiPolizeiFunk Quote
XimenaPaulina Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 Great-looking purist custom indeed! I really like how you used standard 'gold' parts for this fig to approximate the source material. Very well done! Quote
Miss Kyle Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 (edited) She is so beautiful! Very impressive, I like your Athena very much. Wish I had one on my desk :) Edited August 21, 2011 by Miss Kyle Quote
KisKatona Posted August 25, 2011 Posted August 25, 2011 Cool! I finshed learning about Greece in school. I like the little Nike figure. It adds a little more detail to Athena. Quote
22kane Posted August 25, 2011 Posted August 25, 2011 Very nice. I always like the single minifigure MOCs or vigs. I like how you changed up the parts to make this one. Quote
