The Riddler's Cane ( The proper one...)

I've been busy for a while now working on Superhero customs and here is something I have wanted for ages.

The Riddler's cane- a proper one.

Thanks to whichever mod embedded the picture, looks much better now.

Actually it's a cream wand piece because I know it wouldn't be so clean if I paint it.

Great idea! I have a couple of those hooks lying around...I'll have to search for a cream wand piece though.

Thanks! Would it be too much to ask for credit if you posted it anywhere?

Always, my good man. ;)

Thanks.

This is by far the best cane I have seen for The Riddler.

Edit: What is the tube piece called that you have used?

All due credit to RaincloudDustbin for the hook-as-question-mark idea. I used it in this MOC of the smartly dressed Riddler:

Is credit important? I figured this out a year ago at least (and I got it from someone else). I'm not bragging or trying to diminish your efforts, but this is lego, you're never the first to discover a new connection, nor is it really something that should be considered so personal. It's just my belief that we should just accept that people will use our ideas, that's actually why I post, so people can use my ideas, credit garners nothing for me, the reward is that y'all use my ideas.

Sorry, autorazr. I genuinely thought Raincloud came up with the idea first.

You raise an interesting question about giving or not giving credit that goes way beyond this thread about the Riddler's cane. So I started a new thread in the General forum here: http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=95058

oh cool, good idea for a thread. No need to apologize, I really feel no sense of ownership over any lego idea. I believe anything I may have come up with was probably done by someone else somewhere at least once before, really I just ask because I've taken a lot from other builders, and never credited, I hope I'm not pissing anyone off.
