Posted April 7, 20204 yr I woke from a restless sleep to a shrieking sound coming from the outside my window. Silver lights cast somber shadows over the walls surrounding my bed, as the blanket tightened between my fingers and covered my trembling chest. There, I saw. Boned hooves drifted across the wooden floor, and from behind a cold cloud of breath, it stared through my eyes and into my soul. From under tangled horns raised to the sky, its rigid snout pointed at me, as if defying my senses, challenging me to speak up or move away. I couldn’t. I wouldn’t. Staring into the eyes of darkness, I shivered back to sleep, knowing it would hunt me still. ________ This is an entry for Week I of the Style it Up Contest by InnovaLug. The proposition was to build something using only one color. I took this opportunity to build outside of my usual castle-medieval theme. Also, make sure to check my other entries for this contest:Week II: Self PortraitWeek III: Social distancing countermeasuresWeek IV: Yet to come Hope you like it.

Yeah, it feels great to adventure through different styles every now and then. I wasn't use to anything outside the medieval-castle themes, but I'm quite happy with the result. Glad you liked it, lad. Cheers!

April 8, 20204 yr awesome job. Monochrome builds can be really good or really off but I think it works nicely here. The use of the tooth and horn pieces is a clever idea.
April 8, 20204 yr I admit that I do not really dig the ...drippy... text. But the shape of the MOC is nice! Especially the head! Edited April 8, 20204 yr by Actionfigure

Especially in black, taking good photos can be really challenging, but I’m quite happy with the way it turned out. Thanks for the support, mate!

Thank you, ActionFigure! I'm happy you liked the build - specially coming from such an expert in realistic-animal building. I didn't know your page, and am really astonished, admiring your MOCs. Incredible work! As for the story, it might have worked better during October, maybe? Thanks for the support, mate. On 4/8/2020 at 6:19 AM, LEGO Train 12 Volts said: Wow, what a perfect shape!

Sorry about that! It´s not you or the text, it´s me! It´s just a matter of taste and I am very straight ahead! But a great MOC! And thanks so much for you compliments!

April 9, 20204 yr I showed my partner and they are very impressed, and would love to buy instuctions if you have them. :)

I’m thrilled you and your partners liked my construction, and I’m flattered you’d want display it. I do not have instructions, unfortunately, as I built it from scratch, with the pieces I had available. However, if you wish to have step-by-step building instructions, I would happily work on them digitally, and send you a link along with parts used. It will probably take me a few days, though. So I hope you are not in desperate need of them right away. If you have the patience to wait a few days, I’ll certainly get to it. Is that ok? Thank you for the support once again. Cheers!

May 13, 20204 yr Author Hey, guys! I'm really thrilled you all liked this build. So, as a suggestion given by @sunhuntin, I managed to put together the instructions HERE, if you ever want to display it in your house. It was the first time I worked with step-by-step instructions, so they aren't as perfect as they could be. But if you are a bit familiar with Lego, I'm sure you can get through. Still, if you have any questions or feedback, please let me know and help. Once again, I truly appreciate your comments and interest in this humble build. And if you ever get to build it, I'd love to see how it turns out. Cheers!
