Fianat Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Gilri Amasan. Hi alls) Here is my first entry for the Alien Category 2 for MCW Contest. And I hope you like it.=D Cost. About 10-11 dollars. Other the standard LEGO parts, I used modeling plastic,some paint Citadel different colors,like metallic silver, Goblins Green and Sea Blue. Inspiration. Idea of this alien figure came to my head from my childhood. Then I was ten,I very like creepy aliens with different ugly tentacles. And then I heard about this category in MCW contest,I was really enjoyed! Backstory. Gilri Amasan is general of the great Musoni Army. Now he is staying in the command centre on the Altair Station and directs the actions om the planet Gustaf. So here is my entry. All vignette. Vignette without figure. Front. Side. Back. More information you will find on my Flickr page. Thanks for watching! Photos updated! -fianat.2011 Quote

Ceroknight Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 (edited) It looks super cool! I think it needs more of the LEGO factor though. Edited November 1, 2011 by ceroknight Quote
swils Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 It looks super cool! I think it needs more of the LEGO factor though. My thoughts exactly. It's a really well crafted figure, but it just doesn't feel like LEGO beyond its scale. I do love ghe facial details, though! Quote
Fianat Posted November 6, 2011 Author Posted November 6, 2011 My thoughts exactly. It's a really well crafted figure, but it just doesn't feel like LEGO beyond its scale. I do love ghe facial details, though! Thanks,guys!I thought about it too. I calculated yesterday-Gilri Amasan it is 35-36% Lego.No more. Quote
Ceroknight Posted November 6, 2011 Posted November 6, 2011 Thanks,guys!I thought about it too. I calculated yesterday-Gilri Amasan it is 35-36% Lego.No more. Rules say it needs to be 51% I would keep this one, because it's a beautiful piece of art and make a different one for this competition maybe? Quote
LuxorV Posted November 7, 2011 Posted November 7, 2011 Thanks,guys!I thought about it too. I calculated yesterday-Gilri Amasan it is 35-36% Lego.No more. How did you calculate that? Just by pieces count (3 LEGO parts vs 6 custom parts or something like that)? I would keep this one, because it's a beautiful piece of art and make a different one for this competition maybe? Rules are rules, though In my opinion, this custom is definetly recognisable as based on official LEGO parts (legs, torso and right arm), so it's clean with the rules. Just remember you still lack the side view, Fianat! Quote
LuxorV Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 Rules check: Still missing the side view. Good luck! Quote

Andonii Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 It's a good design and everything...but...it doesn't look very Legoey if you know what I mean. I know it started off as Lego, but it has to much non Lego on it. Don't take my words offensively, it's just my opinion. Quote
