Previous entry An Octan spy infiltrated one of our compounds in order to steal our precious larvae! Whether this was done in an attempt to demoralise our brave forces, to discover the source of our strength and good looks, or simply because they like the taste is unknown. Enemy spy neutralised, no opportunity for interrogation, larvae recovered. Possible connection to issues encountered by expedition MRV1B04? They stole it from us! Sneaky little Octanses. Must have the precious! Image of the whole build: Edited June 14, 20159 yr by Myrddyn
June 14, 20159 yr Loving the idea of combat in a shaft like that. Guess I'd like to see a spoiler of the full MOC as I'm feeling like there's just a little bit we can't see, but that's only because I'm curious and think it's a pretty neat build. Not really necessary. Just a thought. Well done!
June 14, 20159 yr I agree- would love to see the whole build, but the piece has a nice sense of action and movement! The grate at the end is a nice choice, and the use of chains is good too.
June 14, 20159 yr Author Thanks, I've added a picture of the whole thing. There's not anything more to it though - there's no detail outside, and there was a few blue plates just sitting outside one of the doorways.
June 14, 20159 yr Whether this was done in an attempt to demoralise our brave forces, to discover the source of our strength and good looks, or simply because they like the taste is unknown. Haha! Super dynamic build! I'm scratching my head trying to work out how you suspended the figs!
June 15, 20159 yr What an incredible action scene! This is absolutely brilliant. The posing of the minifigures is fantastic and creates such a sense of action!
June 15, 20159 yr Great work on suspending the minfigs! I like how you incorporated the M.A.N.T.I.S. colors too
June 15, 20159 yr The action in this scene is superb--along with Sal I am trying to see how you posed the figs that way! I also love the ongoing inclusion of larvae in MANTIS.
June 15, 20159 yr Great action. Looks like Koro has some competition for pulling off the sweet anime scenes!
June 16, 20159 yr Author Thanks, here's a picture that hopefully shows how the minifigs were posed. There's just a headlight brick and some plates hidden behind the spy's raised right leg holding him out from the wall a bit, and then Myra is holding her gun fairly high up the handle, so there's a bit sticking out the bottom for the spy to hold.
June 16, 20159 yr Those Octanses ... always send spies to Big Sal's experiment ... Great continuity with the story and love the action scene !
