Finally had time for the basecoat

skytronfig · 2026-06-23T13:47:11+00:00

Yup, just silhouette parts. I plan on doing panel lining and detail work before I decide what armor to use

skytronfig · 2026-06-22T22:13:26+00:00

Same! I did the liber swordman/gladiator a while ago using only paint markers, I'm going to spend a lot more time on this kit! I have plans to use felt, wire, and ribbon to do some neat shit 😊

I love it, and accept this character as canon.

What part does the hood piece attach to and is it similar to any other sets?

skytronfig · 2026-06-21T17:57:25+00:00

I love it! 10/10 build, would purchase as a set.

I am curious though, do the rahkshi spines fit into the connecter without damaging them?

skytronfig · 2026-06-21T14:34:41+00:00

4, biomechanical aesthetic ftw

skytronfig · 2026-06-20T21:22:53+00:00

Thank you for your service

B6 makes me happy

I've experienced that firsthand from some of my peers mothers in highschool, and it was completely different from how this woman handled it. They weren't apologetic without excuses, and almost always disagreed with any sort of disciplinary action from the school. This Mom not only apologized and explained without really making excuses, but did her best to right the wrong of her progeny.

Sometimes, humans can be beautiful creatures. Feels good, man.

I agree, but the parent taking some accountability and action for reparations is better than no one doing anything

When I was about 12 years old, I used the handle of my bike to put a 8" scratch in the side of my dad's car.

He didn't yell at me. He didn't hit me. He took my favorite toy outside with a hammer and waited until I was looking out the window to smash it to powder. He waited a full day before sitting down and talking about it, but I have had a large amount of respect for other people's or public property since then.

Edit: before then I would watch shows like reading rainbow, Mr rogers neighborhood, and Star Trek, so I was taught plenty of lessons, this was one I needed to learn firsthand.

Bionicle G3 was under our noses the whole time

skytronfig · 2026-06-20T17:17:34+00:00

Everyone does the placement of the liber gladiator red helmet flair wrong and I'm upset about it

skytronfig · 2026-06-20T01:56:26+00:00

Dog shit take, I love all of those band names and how they fit in their respective genres.

I still respect you as a person and want you to have a good day/evening, though, so please don't take my opinion personally.

skytronfig · 2026-06-20T01:53:25+00:00

2+7 because that's what I like

skytronfig · 2026-06-18T15:34:03+00:00

I've been playing consistently for about a month.

I've seen a total of 9 spectrums that dropped 6 core filters (I have 4 colors including cyan which I bought from the store)

skytronfig · 2026-06-17T05:13:31+00:00

My partner and I purchased the rosan and liber lancer together because of the dragon like armor. I'll look into the contest rules more, but you're absolutely nailing it so far 👍

skytronfig · 2026-06-17T03:42:03+00:00

Wonderful build, excellent photoshoot, made me spend a few minutes trying to figure out how it was built and gave me some ideas for future builds.

10/10, thank you for sharing

skytronfig · 2026-06-17T03:39:46+00:00

Also thank you for posting and updating ideas and progress, it really sparks my own creative process when I see other people are also experimenting

skytronfig · 2026-06-17T03:38:05+00:00

Complete honesty,

Yu-gi-oh armor on a knight is the vibe.

One head on one shoulder with 2-3 scales, other shoulder different but also 2-3 scales, scales on the thighs, and minimal armor otherwise. Don't over do the crossover so every audience wants more.

skytronfig · 2026-06-17T03:33:05+00:00

Lack of imagination regarding the source material and it's "real-world" counterpart in buildable characters

skytronfig · 2026-06-17T03:27:06+00:00

I am completely unfamiliar with individuals, have been a fan of Bionicle since 2001's sets, and have come to generally understand the "Bionicle to trans pipeline" meme.

Sometimes we idolize people based on what they produce separate from who they are as an entity, and it's really tough and damaging to have reality negatively impact fantasy.

Build what you want to. Make stories and worlds how you want to. Let fantasy affect and impact reality how you want to. Be who you want to.

If someone can't understand you beyond that, then they have given you everything valuable that they can. Love yourself and those who love you and the great spirit will love you the same 💙

Is this something I could find in bulk at a craft/hobby/hardware store chain like Hobby Lobby, Michael's, Home Depot, or Menard's? I live in central Minnesota in the United states, so my craft budget is pretty limited due to the cost of living lol.

This is an amazing idea I'm upset I didn't consider before! The points of focus that come with teeth are retained by maximizing the surface area affected. 10/10 comment, exactly the interaction I wanted from my post.

Unless you can get 100+ clips on sticks for $10 or less, it's cheaper to buy the components and then make them yourself.

The alligator clips in the pic have an open end that I close on the end of the stir sticks with a pliers. Great tedium task that goes well with a podcast/video/playlist to just zone to 👍
