Toa Henke, R.I.P Henke

Here is a moc I made out of 100% bionicle/technic parts. Only 3 parts that did not exist 2003. Everything is custom except for feet which are modified, even head is custom. The reason for the white sword is that I don't have a black one but soon enough I will. The moc is named after my friend Henke who passed away in January this year.


The left one is Toa Henke (the lion is not mine)

I really like the custom limbs on this. Very solid and functional, and the colourscheme is largely unbroken (the sword doesn't really count, but perhaps the Gukko's strange orangey-brown beak would fit the colourscheme better?)
The shoulders look a little wide and the elbows don't look great for posing, but they're not glaring problems. It's a great MOC.

Just noticed his head is custom... Nice!

There is a black kopaka sword that I will soon buy from a friend. The shoulders are not too wide compared to the size of the rest of the body but I could not get a good picture of it. The elbows are quite good for poses, build one yourself and see . I should be able to make instructions on the head on ldd in case someone want to use it or just see how it works.

If I had any free ball bearings that can hold together...

Edit:
>Buys 100 ball joints

>50 are useable

Very nicely done, Id love to see more pictures, of the back, the custom head, and maybe the side too if you ever get the time.

I agree with you on the ball joints Takal, I'd love some sort of locking joint to anchor the newer ones in better at least, we need a set with a bunch of the smaller ball joint holding axels.

Yeah when I get the moc back from USA I can take some better pictures with my friend's camera. You'll have to wait for a long time as it is going to brickfair in august and then shipping back to Sweden is not the quickest.

So October, then? Guess BZP won't let you post the more detailed pictures by that time.

...But it should be okay here. We here at MoD don't understand the meaning of the phrase "dead topic." My first post was in one.

Brickfair eh? Shoot. If I still lived locally enough to see that event, i could ahve seen it in person XD

Have you displayed other creations at brickfair before? Maybe I have pictures of your stuff from the years before?

No, this is the first time I send stuff in. Are you two the only active members here?

I show up every now and then, but I don't post because, well, nobody else does.
