Peppermint_M Posted April 6, 2020 I will forever love seeing your creations, they put LEGOLAND displays to shame! That is a most beautiful hedgehog. I could see it scampering across my garden in the night. (We even had one in the house one summer, it got in through the open backdoor and surprised us all!) As ever, thank you so much for sharing.

Great use of SNOT techniques on the spines! Thank you very much! I tested different techniques for the back. But this SNOT version turned out best. 6 hours ago, Jerry McGlade said: So good, great job! Thanks! Edited April 7, 2020 by Actionfigure Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DwalinF Posted April 7, 2020 It seems like level of needles lower than skin. what if to add one more layer of dark broun plates to increase the volume? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That´s inteded! The level of the needles is actually lower than, well not the skin, but the fur! The hedgehog can tighten (sorry, don´t know the correct word) his needles for minimum drag in the hedge and plants. That´s not necessary or possible with his fur. So the needles are tighter to his body than the fur. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Louis of Nutwood Posted April 11, 2020 Beautiful design, ActionFigure. I love how you left the open studs to add texture to the hedgehog’s fur (spines?) The way the animal poses (just as well as the other ones you build) is just magnificent. It feels like it is moving across the yard, very naturally. Indeed, another incredible creation. Cheers! And keep it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And keep it up. Thank you very much! I am very glad, that the semblance of movenent seems to work out! Yes, these shall be spines. It turned out to be the best way to suggest them (I tested different techneques)... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
