Yours is the privilege of assisting the Ssi-ruuk in liberating the other worlds of the galaxy." ―Standard greeting broadcast to planets prior to a Ssi-Ruuk invasion. “Hello There..!” Sh’tk’ith was an Elder Male Blue Ssi-Ruuk who held much Power in Ssi-Ruuk Society Book: The Truce at Bakura By: Kathy Tyers For the sake of my fingers, I will refer to him as Bluescale Bluescale was a Ssi-Ruuk who along with Firwirrung (I didn’t build him, but I may in the future…) was responsible to study the captive human, Dev Sibwarra. Bluescale was a hypnotists, so he was able to keep Dev inline during his captivity. Bluescale, of course, has blue scales as part of one of the upper classes of the Ssi-Ruuk society. The nickname Bluescale came from Dev. Sibwarra killed Bluescale aboard the Shiwirr during the Bakuran Incident with a ‘paddle gun’. Main Front Backside Without the ‘Paddle Gun’ Detail Picture 1 More pics in the spoiler! Bluescale’s ‘paddle gun’. Not much to show here as I couldn’t really get the shape right… Close-Up 2/NoGun Back Detail2 Overview 2 Overview 3 Wookiepedia Link: Here! (No, I totally didn’t copy some of the text in the first paragraph. ) I really do hope someone else enters Category C…I mean other than that ship that’s in the wrong place of course… I think if no one enters category C, someone should move this out of the contest area or something, I just feel like an insta-win isn’t exactly fair but I'd gladly take a prize! I just contradicted myself, oops..., etc… Building Notes: The nose took ages, I went through about 10 different styles and ways of doing it till I settled on this one. I took various inspiration from various builders who build at this size for just a general idea of how to build at this scale. (And because I considered making a Dev too…) Also, I really wish those binocular parts came in blue, but they were the only way I could get 2 claws without making it super thick. The ‘Paddle’ Gun isn’t exactly the best, as I didn’t put too much thought into it, so please look past that fact. and I thought it’d work either way. Anyways, hope you liked this build! C and C welcome as always! Oh, wait, Bluescale wants to tell you something, I’ll let him say that at the end. ~Beltar “Good Bye!” Edited July 29, 2015 by Commander Beltar Quote
Lord Tyrus Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 (edited) I've said it before, but the shaping of the Ssi Ruuk is perfect. Every little detail from the face to the curved tail looks great. I hope you DO win, whether by being the only contestant, or by being the best. (Sorry haven't, checked the sub-forum to see if anyone else entered. There is another entry but I think yours is better! ) Edited August 5, 2015 by Lord Tyrus Quote
