becauseBATMAN Posted June 22, 2013 Posted June 22, 2013 (edited) Hello everyone, This double-sided MOC was inspired from "Night of the Ninja" and "Day of the Samurai" - 2 episodes from Batman The Animated Series. Kyodai Ken's profile = www.dcanimated.wikia.com/wiki/Kyodai_Ken "Night of the Ninja" episode = www.dubbed-scene.com/batman-animated-series-35-night-ninja "Day of the Samurai" episode = www.dubbed-scene.com/batman-animated-series-44-day-samurai I really love these 2 episodes because they explored Bruce Wayne's past during his time in Japan and they featured a villain, Kyodai Ken, who gave Batman a real challenge The first side of this MOC is a Japanese dojo setting where Kyodai Ken is trying to steal Yoru sensei's katana blade. The blade is over 500 years old and very valuable - luckily Bruce catches Kyodai in the act: -- Spear-rack and Japanese Gong -- Yoru sensei's katana blades. Kyodai is kicked out of the Dojo and this event creates Kyodai's life-long grudge against Bruce -- Samurai armor displays -- The other side of the MOC has the final fight between Bruce and Kyodai near a volcano on Mt. Kijiki -- Kyodai lures Bruce to Mt. Kijiki by kidnapping Alfred -- They agree to fight "man to man", without their masks -- Alfred watches on "wish I had a cup of tea..." -- The volcano explosions cause the mountain to break apart and Kyodai is stuck on a piece of rock, surrounded by lava -- Bruce throws a lined Batarang over to Kyodai, trying to save his life -- Accepting defeat and overwhelmed with Bruce's willingness to save his life, Kyodai bows respectfully... -- And disappears after an explosion Thanks for looking! Comments and suggestions are welcome Edited June 24, 2013 by becauseBATMAN Quote
HayHay Posted June 22, 2013 Posted June 22, 2013 Amazing. LEGO should hire you to make a movie or motion picture. Quote
Hulk_Smash Posted June 22, 2013 Posted June 22, 2013 I'm actually watching TAS as I'm looking at these, (I'm on Tyger Tyger at the moment, and watched Night of the Ninja earlier) and this MOC is really impressive. Sometimes looking at the MOC's on this forum make me wish I could make one. Quote
kissyfur_ok Posted June 22, 2013 Posted June 22, 2013 (edited) Wow dude! This is one of my favourite of yours, love the double sided combination- the shapes work really well together and the Volcano looks so recognisable. I'm a big fan of a good rockface haha! Keep up the great work! Edited June 22, 2013 by kissyfur_ok Quote
Karlson Posted June 23, 2013 Posted June 23, 2013 Fantastic work; Flawless details! I'm a huge fan of Batman:TAS - it was my go-to cartoon as a kid growing up. I'd love to see you recreate an episode that includes the Joker. Perhaps "The Laughing Fish" - one of my favorites. Quote
Only Sinner Posted June 23, 2013 Posted June 23, 2013 I love this double sided MOC of awsomeness ! The dojo part is particularly well done, and I just love the Japanese artwork,too. Quote
Grazingcattle Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 too bad photobucket is being lame I would like to see this Quote
andhe Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 This is great. I'm not familiar with the storyline but you seem to have done an excellent job of capturing the look and feel of the source material. I really like that the two scenes are contained within the same MOC as well. The lava is particularly impressive. Are there lightling effects or is it just yellow and red plates underneath the trans studs? Great work! Quote

Grazingcattle - the pics should be working now This is great. I'm not familiar with the storyline but you seem to have done an excellent job of capturing the look and feel of the source material. I really like that the two scenes are contained within the same MOC as well. The lava is particularly impressive. Are there lightling effects or is it just yellow and red plates underneath the trans studs? Great work! Thank you! It was my first time building Lego lava lol. Naw, no lighting effects. I used red plates underneath and lined the sides with yellow plates. Next I covered everything with transparent red, orange, and fire/flame pieces.
