Lord Vladivus Posted December 12, 2015 Aaaaaaah so many eyes! Nice build! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adair Posted December 12, 2015 Creepy! Can it run? ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Garmadon Posted December 12, 2015 Quite a sight to behold! Nice work with that eye-covered monster, and snow-scape and minifig posing as well! I'm surprised the bunny mittens didn't stop it though... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Steward Posted December 12, 2015 Very nice beast! Why is there a cat in the tree? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Dee Posted December 13, 2015 Haha! I don't often laugh at Lego creations but this made me think of Calvin & Hobbes ("The Attack of the Deranged Killer Monster Mutant Snow Goons" or something). The monster would seem menacing if it hadn't tickled my funny bone. The smooth snow is nice and I like your use of ice to break up the solid white. I really like the tree; it has that barren winter look. The king is really taking chances facing them so closely, eh? But then he has the whole collection of rabbit's feet... Good work.

Spader Posted December 13, 2015 So many eyes..........but nice build here! I like the king's kindness, saving the rabbit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Simon_S Posted December 13, 2015 So much awesomeness in this build. I love the monster . You are a genius, Mr Braunsfeld ;-). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TitusV Posted December 13, 2015 Oh, these eyes... Lovely! And that King, with the gloves... Is it possible I remelber him? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Braunsfeld Posted December 13, 2015 Aaaaaaah so many eyes! Nice build! Thanks - cute, isn't it? Quite a sight to behold! Nice work with that eye-covered monster, and snow-scape and minifig posing as well! I'm surprised the bunny mittens didn't stop it though... ... so is the nobleman! Very nice beast! Why is there a cat in the tree? My sons requested the cat. Haha! I don't often laugh at Lego creations but this made me think of Calvin & Hobbes ("The Attack of the Deranged Killer Monster Mutant Snow Goons" or something).

I really like the tree; it has that barren winter look. The king is really taking chances facing them so closely, eh? But then he has the whole collection of rabbit's feet... Good work. Thank you. The guy is actually not a king. If you recall help from a nobleman this is Duke Fasel with his magic rabbit gloves. They have been found helpful. I like the stuff Calvin is building out of snow... So many eyes..........but nice build here! I like the king's kindness, saving the rabbit Thanks, but those are actually rabbit gloves So much awesomeness in this build. I love the monster . You are a genius, Mr Braunsfeld ;-). Oh, these eyes... Lovely! And that King, with the gloves... Is it possible I remember him? Yes, the guy has appeared in some previous MOCs. Creepy! Can it run? ;) Can it run? My big question is "does it fall apart?"... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soccerkid6 Posted December 13, 2015 The SNOT snowy base with ice mixed in looks great And that's definitely a creepy monster, though perhaps some valiant Mitgardian warriors would take advantage of its seeming lack of mobility. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, the monster makes me think that I should focus on different topics in the future Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Petric_G Posted December 14, 2015 Nice MOC Captain! I'm wondering how the monster processed all the visual incomes in his big brain;-) One little thing for inprovement: Could you somehow cover the baseplates, we see on the last picture... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The monster is probably not moving so much because it has to work on the visual input. If you have some white baseplates for me, I'd exchange for the others Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LittleJohn Posted December 15, 2015 Great monster, CB! The snow and tree are nice as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gideon Posted December 15, 2015 Wow, those eyes are creepy! I also like the tree, those new tooth pieces indeed seems great in snowy scenes. The ground looks a bit too flat, for example maybe some footsteps would have been nice? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
halixon Posted December 16, 2015 Now if i saw that thing, i would laugh pointing at it and scream running at the same time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Puvel Posted December 17, 2015 For some reason I can imagine this one gobbling up its enemies like cookie monster eats cookies Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Braunsfeld Posted December 17, 2015 It sees all!!! Yes!!! Great monster, CB! The snow and tree are nice as well Thanks! Wow, those eyes are creepy! I also like the tree, those new tooth pieces indeed seems great in snowy scenes. The ground looks a bit too flat, for example maybe some footsteps would have been nice? With the monster being mediocre strange I did not want the ground to be the key element of the build Now if i saw that thing, i would laugh pointing at it and scream running at the same time. You should, it is probably dangerous! For some reason I can imagine this one gobbling up its enemies like cookie monster eats cookies That would be a horrible sight to behold!

KlodsBrik Posted December 17, 2015 That monster is just hilarious and cute at the same time. I would know its a bad thing to stay and cuddle with it from the look of it, but then again !? Kill your enemies with epic supercuteness, who need to make ones enemies run away frightened, when one can make them drop their weapons and run right into the evil mouth of cuteness.
