MoC Contest

[Brogen]

To christen this new MoC forum, with its first contest. The challenge is…
To Build Yourself[/b]
Well really, build a MoC of your Bionicle self, or the Bionicle Character you typically use to represent yourself on Bionicle sites, this does not have to be your current screen name, because in some cases there is no bionicle form of the screen name, or it’s just a random name that would sound very strange attached to a bionicle figure.

Rules:

• The entry must be built entirely of LEGO parts, cut parts are allowed, as well as painted. If you melted down the plastic and made a totally new part out of it, then it’s not allowed. The part should be recognized as LEGO.
  
• The entry should be built by you, or if you have a family member who does not have an account on the forums, and does not wish to have one, you may enter an entry made by them, but you cannot enter a second one made by yourself.
  
• No whining about lack of parts, if you don’t think your MoC is very good because of a lack of parts, you don’t have to enter it.
  
• Staff may enter, but are not eligible for the grand prize.
  
• Entries should be relatively new, if they have been posted on the forum in the past it would be prudent to only enter if it was posted in within the last few weeks, because you may be able to do something better now
  

Recommendations:

• Try to build you MoC without the use of prefabricated limbs or bodies. A MoC built with a toa metru body, and limbs doesn’t stand a chance next to a fully custom toa that is custom down to its hands
  
• The color scheme of the MoC is one of the most important parts. If the MoC isn’t consistent it won’t be very aesthetically pleasing and people won’t like to look at it, which can make it harder to judge.
  
• The pictures are what tell us what the MoC looks like, really they’re the most important part. If you don’t have clear pictures, we can’t tell what it looks like or how you put it together, this creates problems while judging.
  
• The more photos you take the better, if you include a gallery with the MoC then you can be nearly sure that the viewers of the MoC see what you see when you have it in your hands.
  
• If there is an animal, or vehicle, or weapon, or anything really, that typically is with your self character and helps describe them better then you may include whatever that is with your entry.
  

The Final Date to enter your entries is Febuary 15, 2008 from 5-9 PM Mountain time.

I'm entering Myself. Posing whilst on a wall

[Kaiba Gal]

I would post myself, but I don't have a digicam.

[shiruk]

*notices that if enters is gauranteed a prize*

I decided take this opportunity to see wh it would be like if Shiruk got infected by the pits mutagen. It's not very visible in the picre but he actualy has a tail:

I couldn't take many pictures becausmy digicams battery was low. Ill upload some more as soon as I get moar batteries.

[Brogen]

Ok thanks all for the entries so far, but since it is almost time for the deadline and we only have two entries, I'm going to move the dead line up two weeks to februrary the 15.

[slymaster15]

I'll enter. Here he is:

Toa Panak

www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=2958145

[Masterweaver]

That's yourself?

[Brogen]

Wait, your name is Lord Phlebb, but you are a girl name Panak?

I'm not sure if you realized or not, but to enter this contest you need to build your self character, for example my namesake, Brogen, has a topic in this section. This contest is all about building yourself as you see yourself in the bionicle world.

[slymaster15]

Sorry about that. Typo. That's me, It's just that Lord Phlebb isn't exactly the most fitting name for it, so I just made one up.

[Masterweaver]

You're kind of missing the point.

[DEATH PANDA]

I need purple.

and moar black.

[Brogen]

I'm sorry Askinka, the point is to make a moc of your character, this moc is very, very, very similar to Brutaka. For an avatar, when trying to represent yourself, do you use Brutaka, or this version of him? If not then I will have to disqualify you as this was a contest to make a moc, not modify an existing set.
If you still wish to enter you can build a new moc within the next week and PM it to me.

[MercenaryXero]

I assume since the deadline passed, I can't enter, but is there any chance of extension?

[Brogen]

I will need to ask the other judges if they're willing, if they are then we probably will, since, at the moment, there are only 4 entries.

[PREDATOR]

Why not have Deadline end of the Month so people who want to enter can i would like to enter.

[Brogen]

As I just said, I need to ask the other judges, this was posted in the first week of January, with the end of January being the end, now I need to ask the other judges to see if we can extend it.

[PREDATOR]

I dont think they'll mind.

[Mega ToaX]

Yeah, I just saw this and I have dozens of cool ideas!

[-=Dark Ness=-]

I think I'll be "other judge" today.

...and yes, I OK an extension, even though this is an old topic. I don't care how far of an extension this gets, though.

[Bepura]

Actually, I might enter this one. I have an idea...

~Bepura.

[MercenaryXero]

I shall enter... on sunday.

[Nate]

yeah, if i can find my pics/finish my old self moc i may enter......

[MercenaryXero]

Gallery
Main Pic <<ignore where it says BBCC...

Edit: this is my self, MOC, just has a bionicle-y name to make it more appropriate.

[Zip]

EPIC POINTLESS REVIVAL.

[Luke]

I agree that this was an unnecessary revival, but I do think it would be a good idea if we had another contest like this.

[Ria]

Colin can you please stop reviving dead topics.

[Monasti]

Jeez, Zip. Its times like this i wish you were gone...
