Posted January 13, 200817 yr Yeap. The biggest problem I can see is the odd colored click joints. I couldve changed that if I wasnt lazy, but I built this in like 2 hours. The top turret thing. Bad arial view! More crappy colored joints. Scarab Vs Gattling tank? Scarab. Scarab Vs Tank? Scarab. Scarab Vs Mecha? Ooh.. Scarab. Scarab Vs random guy in green armour?... Video game logic deceives me. The most accurate portions of the scarab are probably the legs, the body may be abit small, but I ran out of peices. Also yes, I know the joint colors are horrid, but hey. Thats what I had, and they only stick out so much because the rest of it is grey. Well, I tried. Lemee know what you think. Scarabs are hard to build. I challenge you to build one aswell!
January 13, 200817 yr X-O X-O X-O when Youtold me you're building a Scarab, I didn't think you'd build it that quick! This is amazing! Who cares about oddly colored joints, I don't! I love the massiveness! *wub* *wub* *y* *wub* *y* *wub* *y* *wub*
January 13, 200817 yr Author Thanks Mr Builder *wub* I also just created its mocpages; Please anyone rate or comment, I do appreciate it :-$ Here
January 13, 200817 yr Author Thanks guys :-$ I'll try to keep em comin'.. Im still paranoid about them joints though :-D I do love comments *wub* Thanks again
January 13, 200817 yr Great job, I like the SNOT- techniques *y* The oddly colours doesn't very matter I like the yellow light effects X-D Edited January 13, 200817 yr by pietje
January 15, 200817 yr I saw this on your MOCPages, and I think it's great! I haven't seen many Scarabs with a good leg design that's posable and can support the weight of the model. You seem to have nailed all of those points, great job! *y* ~Peace
January 15, 200817 yr Author Thanks for the reviews guys :-$ I really had most my effort on the legs - It was a major pain to build 2 of each set, all being bery similar, I had to build 4 functional massive legs that really ate up my peices! |-/ I had almost nothing left for the body, and ended up being smaller than I wanted it to be. And as for it standing on its own - I had no idea it would either! I just built it put em on stood it up. Wasnt that hard :-$ But I didnt really think about it, and now that I have, Its kinda surprising 8-
January 16, 200817 yr Nice one!I thought the scarab was more black-ish. It is actually a dark shade of purple, as far as I remember. But purple pieces are really hard to come by, so i doubt it would be possible to build an all purple scarab. Brickmaster, your scarab is awesome! *y* *y*
January 16, 200817 yr I've been waiting to see your scarab ever since you told me about it, and you have exceeded expectations!! It is way bigger than I thought, and despite the odd coloured joints (which aren't really noticeable) the legs are very good, I am surprised you managed to make it support itself!! Great job! And I love your green laser!
January 16, 200817 yr Author Thanks very much :-$ I came out fairly happy with it - my only grievences are looking back at it, the legs seem kind of fickly, obviously the body abit small. The laser was a last minuite idea in the photoshoot aswell :-D Some are saying its the best leg design theyve seen so far :-$ Im pretty happy with it all.
January 19, 200817 yr That scarab is the best one that I have ever seen! com to think of it, it is the only one I have ever seen! X-D Fantastic work! it is very detailed and very accurate.
January 31, 200817 yr >:-) I just played the last level in halo2, which has the scarab, and I wanted to build/find one and TA-DA! *sweet* great job
February 23, 200916 yr wow I've posted on three old Halo topics today, yay me. THAT IS AWSOME!!! is the guy in green supposed to be master chief or some other spartan, 'cause the helmet is but that doesn't matter. IT ROCKS!!!
March 1, 200915 yr The little green guy is a harder and trained target that kicks alien megablocks edit: huh @$$ turned into megablocks? Edited March 1, 200915 yr by united brick
March 2, 200915 yr in one of the pictures it looks like the mec is peeing on the scarab! Great work. I love taking these down in Halo 3, so much fun! Regards, Cpt. PB
March 6, 200915 yr Nice Scarab. Looks like exactly like the one in Halo 3. I like how you have different battle scenes with the Scarab, Tank and Worthog. Overall, you have done a nice job. Nice Master Cheif!
