Darkness Falls

Zamor Bazooka Goreth Weird stuff.

Dude, just drop it. Winning on the internet isn't fun. And DV, as esteemed as you are in the world of MoCing and Lego and whatnot, don't assume everyone knows how great you are at MoCing... a gentle reminder would help you not look like a dick.

I'm pleasantly surprised by how good Breez looks. I thought I was never going to purchase her from this line, but that picture may have swayed me... she's got a nice Samus Aran look going on now.

Yeah, I'm really impressed with the variation in these heroes. Rocka looks way better in dark light than he does in bright light, though. Damn, those energy shields are cool- I wonder what could be made with them. Definitely getting Evo- might get some duplicates- since he's so generic, but in an AWESOME way.

Apologies in advance for the LDD-only creations... I can't really utilize anything else as of right now. If you should be traveling in the Swamplands by night, and stumble upon a tree long dead, surrounded by graves... you may want to look up. Above the blackened tree trunk sits Calpurnis' summoning chamber- atop the whole structure are the summoning staffs, along with the tools of a mighty necromancer. On the bottom floor is the scrying den, where Calpurnis watches his prey as they become lost in his swamp. Calpurnis uses many of these summoning chambers spread throughout Moruth, but this one in particular is his favorite, located in the heart of the swamplands. -1- -2- -3- -4-

Oh hell yeah I'm signing up!

Darkness Falls signing up. I'll do whatever I can!

Apologize for my lack of originality with my Avatar- however, I have limited resources while here at college. Shall we? Though Calpurnis thinks quite highly of himself, others try their best to keep away from him. He's partly responsible for most of the rumors and nastiness going on in the Moruth Swamplands. Once a dishonest tax collector, Calpurnis had a premonition that he would get what was coming to him- which he jauntily disregarded. He soon lamented that decision upon contracting leprosy. Seeking a cure, he traveled to the Moruth Swamplands, and upon arrival, discovered an old sorceress with a means of escaping his fate- but she promptly died right before him. Enraged, he broke her staff over his knee, releasing the demon trapped within. In exchange for freeing him, the demon bestowed the powers of the sorceress upon Calpurnis- the powers of necromancy! Calpurnis wanders Moruth summoning minion after minion to his cause- often those poor souls who lost their way and were half-consumed by the monstrous creatures in the swamp. He is accomplished in summoning demons, as well, and is often the cause of many of the "disappearances" in the swamp. He is considered a dangerous ally, but also an unpredictable one. His armies of the undead feel no pain and are faithful to the very end... which has already come and gone... I'll be posting my army soon!

Oh yeah. I figure my name fits this one pretty well. Will have an Avatar up by the end of the week.

What about rage mode? Mouth open rage for the win! As stated prior, I love the hell out of your stuff. This is no different.

Your building style is absolutely fantastic- I love how you use complex intricacies then layer simplistic armor over it. Over all, there's no much to criticize- the piece clearly has a lot of work put into it, because it certainly shows. Fantastic use of small pieces layered atop one another for the altering of proportions. The only thing I would point out is that the thighs seem a little too short in comparison with the rest of his limbs. Otherwise, great work! A very cohesive piece.

The design motif with Split-face pretty much flat-out states that he's a mixture of Xplode and Thunder. The amount of spikes on each side varies, and the jaw is larger on Thunder's side. Also, Toxic Reapa? Totally a fusion of Corridor and Meltdown. Some on, those aesthetic cues are too prominent to be ignored. Both of these, BTW, are going to be bought day ONE. Thornraxx is pretty cool as a homage to Nui-Rama... at least in my mind. Flying shark is a boss. Rocka looks awesome. I'm getting him for a multitude of reasons- mask, green-shield thing, epic weapon. Yep. Furno and Breez, and to a lesser extent Surge, look a little disproportional, because their original helmets are HUGE. Just saying. Also, Furno and Breez- what color scheme? EVO IS AMAZING. METAL ARM. GIANT GUN. BOSS. Almost a perfect representation of a ROBOT. I like it. As for Black Phantom... ugh.

How has no one commented on this? It's absolutely fantastic. Great blend of colors, and awesome mixture of sleekness and complexity.

...Dammit. Now I want it. PICK UP THE LICENSE, LEGO!

I fondly remember buying Mata-nui back in 2009 and saying, "this guy was the god of everything back in 2001!" And then I wondered why any 7 year-old jumping right into Bionicle that year would even give a crap. Oops.

Never posed triple-jointed legs, have you, Seigfried? Try bending them 90 degrees at the first leg joint and again in the opposite direction for the second... That'll improve the nature of the set so much more...

The design of the claws is really ingenious. There's really just fantastic quality all around here- I'm always impressed with how you can create detail on such a small scale. The torso is also great, and that's some really good use of the Phantoka ribs. The only thing I think could be improved is the laeft claw- the blade pieces just feel a little bare in comparison with the rest of the piece. All in all, though, brilliant work!

^Awesome drawing, and shading style. When are the summer sets supposed to be coming out again? I'm eager for some Waspix action.

Waspix. Several of him, if he proves to be as good as I hope. I love me some four-armed, triple-jointed legs designs, especially with the Heroes joints. I might get Stringer, too.

I think Waspix might be the first lego figure I ever by multiples of- but I'll reserve that statement for when I actually get one.

Hi, all. Just working with blending bricks with the new Hero Factory stuff- Also wanted to see what I could make with purchasable parts in LDD. I may update with more as I continue to experiment. This is the Dark Factory, where Von Nebula has replicated the Hero Building process and created his own batch of evil heroes. Model 1- Dweller Dweller was built specifically to watch and wait. He hides in the shadows, hunched and silent, until a hero comes around- that's when he springs his attack. The charged particle blade on his left arm cuts through hero armor like butter, and that coupled with his speed and sharp claws ensures that heroes will be down for the count. Surprisingly, Dweller is extremely talkative when he's not on missions. Notes: Wanted to replicate the awesome triple jointed leg design on Waspix- came out a little weird, but I like it. I really love the sword and feet- plus, a cool color combo. From the front Showing off the Charged Particle Blade From the back At the ready Attack!

Whose mask is that? Very well done MoC, with great layering of pieces and fantastic color segmenting.

Man, Furno's helmet looks damn nice. Never noticed the blatant Hero Factory symbol on the side of it. I do like how his arms have the wing motif to them, a great way to set him apart from the others. In fact, most of the 3.0 Heroes are very individual be nature. Something I like very much about Bulk are his longer arms, which give him a stronger physicality. Stormer and Stringer use different armor pieces to enhance their physique as well. Some very thoughtful design went into these guys in order to differentiate them from one another and from the 2.0 versions. I'm interested to see how they can keep up the individuality in later waves.

Witch Doctor's legs look fantastic. And he comes with two of his skulls/helmets/masks!
