[MOC] Horror Hound

[TheOneVeyronian]

I've really been in an MOC'ing mood lately. Partly because every person I know strangely hasn't been around for days, partly because I have nothing better to really do, and partly because there's an MOC contest over on BZP which I'd thought I'd try entering (and probably lose as usual ). And since the theme of the contest is Halloween, it was a perfect excuse to finally build something I've been wanting to build for a long time: a horror hound creature

So yeah, when I saw the theme of the latest BBC contest on BZPower, I knew exactly what I wanted to do. It was basically an excuse to put all those delicious Spring Yellowish Green parts from the Ninjago Possession sets I've been stocking up on to good use! I would have really liked to have made the Horror Hound Dark Blue instead of Black, but eh, no Dark Blue CCBS exists sadly

I really like how the head came out on this model, and really it all stemmed from the desire to use the Skull Army armour add-on as a jaw piece, and it was more successful than I originally thought it would be.

So fear the night of All Hallow's Eve, for the Horror Hound is here to hunt you down and consume your soul...

And some more pictures for your viewing delight... try not to get too scared now

Anyway, enjoy. Comments, constructive criticism and the like much appreciated

Really cool)

A perfect use for Sauron's eyes)

And I like a lot of spikes on it's back)

When I read the name of this topic, I immidiatly thought about Cerberus)

So I suppose your hound can look a way more nicer whith two o three heads))

Those aren't Sauron's eyes, they're 1x1 round tiles with flames from the Chima line

And my gosh - how did I not think of doing a Cerberus MOC? Now I wish I'd done three heads for it

Nice MOC, but the head looks kinda messy for me.

I personally don't see the messiness in the head Unless of course you mainly refer to the random dark gray liftarms which could make it appear messy - couldn't help it though, I was caught out and run out of black ones, and since this was a competition entry, I didn't have time to wait around for pieces to arrive from BL. Reminds me, I really need to order some black 1x2 liftarms
