Mogzilla, have you seen Kev Levell's 2KAD Lego character sheets?  Superb!

I didn't really intend to take that Shakara any further as I didn't really think I have the pieces required to do it properly.  However, a bit of messing around (with the boys singing their new Shakara! song in the background) and I've got a bit further...




Legs?  Maybe later.

just when I think these couldn't get any better you surpass yourself! I've been racking my brains for ideas (would never have thought of Shakara) but coming up blank. Keep up the good work though!

Thanks!  For most of the things I've attempted, it all starts with a basic consideration of 'could we do that with the bits I have?' and then starting off with a key portion of the character - usually the head.  If the head is do-able and captures at least some aspect of the character then it tends to take the pressure off the rest of the build.  A limited selection of bricks means it's all done on the fly and I definitely don't plan these out beyond a vague idea of how certain bits might work out.

Give it a go! :)

Yesterday, Oskar (three and a half) drew Shakara punching his way through a Teknosaur.

Glad you're liking these; as always it's good fun, a good way to wind down and a great way to casually introduce the boys to some Thrill Power.

Oskar was singing this morning, and eventually I figured out the lyrics... "Arnold Stodgman, Arnold Stodgman, Aaaaarnold Stodgmaaaaan!"

Those Fatties made quite an impression.

:D

Watching this one come to fruition has been a joy!

You may one day see one of your pieces made into an official set. I know everyone on here would vote for it.

I keep thinking a Lawmaster would be cool without being too hard to make, but I still haven't found the time to get anywhere near my son's Lego box.  I can imagine making a basic long, rectangular body, with two wheels side by side to give the necessary big wheel thickness, and going from there.

I gave a Lawmaster a quick go a while back but unfortunately didn't really get anywhere.  However, we've got more bricks now than we did so I decided to have another crack at it.  Shaping up okay so far, I think.  Pics later...

Something like this I'd imagine?
