Nuju Metru Posted August 30, 2016 Posted August 30, 2016 (edited) I designed this famous beast for a commission, and I'm very happy with how it turned out! This minifig-scale Balrog was a tremendously fun challenge to design. It has 39 points of articulation, can balance on its own feet in many poses, and features custom-cut cloth wings. If you're interested, instructions are available-- PM me for more information. All images link to their larger versions on Flickr! Or, to see more images, go check out the Flickr album. I appreciate any comments or critiques you may have. Thanks for your feedback! Edited August 30, 2016 by Nuju Metru Quote
Littleworlds Posted August 30, 2016 Posted August 30, 2016 Wow, this looks genuinely nasty and evil! Very impressive. I also like that it has some solidity and playability thanks to the many joints! Also seems I have the chance to be the first to say the inevitable "You shall not pass!" Actually though, it passes pretty fine Quote
BrickCurve Posted August 30, 2016 Posted August 30, 2016 (edited) Looks very impressive! I really like the wings. Edited August 30, 2016 by BrickCurve Quote
Buildingwon Posted August 30, 2016 Posted August 30, 2016 Will you be making the instructions available to public or private use? Would love to build my own it's incredible Quote
Jason C. Hand Posted August 30, 2016 Posted August 30, 2016 (edited) Terrifying, like in the movies!! :thumbup: Edited August 30, 2016 by Jason C. Hand Quote
TheLegoDr Posted August 30, 2016 Posted August 30, 2016 It definitely resembles the movie version. I have been wanting to build one for myself for quite some time, but too many other projects get in the way. This looks promising. I would tinker with it and change a few things.. Keep up the good work. Quote
Csc167 Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 This is one of the better I've seen! I hate they never made an official one Quote
SerenityInFire Posted September 5, 2016 Posted September 5, 2016 I knew this was built by the "dragon lands guy" the minute I saw the wings. This build is a thing of beauty. It absolutely astounds me that you are not working for Lego. Quote
atreyu2112 Posted September 6, 2016 Posted September 6, 2016 Absolutely amazing. This is my most wanted build from LotR. I'm still pissed they never released one. I'd BUY this were it available. Quote
TitusV Posted September 6, 2016 Posted September 6, 2016 Awesome job, lovely figure! It's just so complete! Quote
J bij de W Posted September 6, 2016 Posted September 6, 2016 Wow tha's awsome! I would love to buy this Quote
BrickJagger Posted September 7, 2016 Posted September 7, 2016 Nice work. I like the fire whip and the wings. Quote
Ancalagon the black Posted September 4, 2017 Posted September 4, 2017 Great work like the wings and fire details Quote
kaelthas Posted September 11, 2017 Posted September 11, 2017 Amazing details here! Love the wings and fiery whip that he is holding here. Great MOC! Quote
BrunoSilva13 Posted September 19, 2017 Posted September 19, 2017 Great ideia, deserves a nice environement to be displayed. Congrats. Quote
TheGreyPilgrim Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 Easily the best rendition of Durin's Bane yet! Well done! As others have said, I wish Lego had created an official set but I think you've done a fantastic job with this MOC. Quote
Arqangelx1 Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 Best Balrog I've seen so far! Great work love all the details and how you sprinkled the "fire" all around! Is it possible to get the instructions? Would love to add it to my LOTR collection! Quote
sander1992 Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Nice version of the Balrog. The DBG really works here. I can remember a version with only black parts. Thanks for sharing. Quote
