WIP "Steam" Liger

[Pirate]

I second Shadow making a flexi tutorial! ...Even though I'm never going to make a flexible zoid ever again >_>

I also vote that you should you get some more superglue! Poor little gunsniper D: Admittedly I didn't actually buy proper superglue because Tesco were sold out, I got this stuff called SERIOUS GLUE (the name is honestly in capitals) which was more expensive and takes longer to set. Baaah.

I love how loads of people have named their zoids and I haven't. I took shieldy into school a couple of times to do some studies of him in art (thats why his canopy is slightly broken and falls off all the time) and my art teacher was stood there going, "I think he looks like a George! You should call him George!"

ROFL Well one of my Shield Ligers is named Bob XD

[Pirate]

Bob is an awesome name for a war machine!

Not really a proper update, but I'm really amused by the free-standing hind leg.

[Comrade Bluey Nomface]

Ooh it's purdy o.o
Maybe one day i'll try making a zoid posable... maybe when I have a bit more knowledge of that sort of thing...

[Pirate]

Haha thankyou!

If you're impatient like me, I would recommend getting a glue gun, I can't be doing with this waiting for the glue to set business (that and super glue won't hold the gears onto the chassis properly).

I have no knowledge of this sort of thing, seriously, the only things I've ever customised before were beyblades and that's just a case of getting parts from on and snapping them onto another, I got a beyblade that actually sort of worked like one in the anime that way.

[Daft Punksworth]

I name everything... I'm not kidding... EVERYTHING.

My CET flexlab machine I call Chicken. And I don't know why. XD

My first laptop was Spiro (because it was an inSPIROn), my new one is Blackbird because it is shiney and black and the SR-71 is my favourite jet of all time.

My Honda was named Bianco, my mom's car I called Yahiko (because it had such an attitude like the character from Kenshin XD), my new car is nicknamed Ko at the moment (I had named him Kohebi, but I think he's trying to change it to Kouki).

And .. well shoot, just look at Fact #7. And that's not all the names, just the names that would fit. XD

And you people will be stunned at Facts 8 and 9 XD

[GhostLiger]

My King Gojulas is called Spud.

I've never really made a zoid fully posable. Strike Wolf can make a leaping motion because his legs are attached with twisty parts from a Buster Eagle, and Para Saurer is partially posable with Neoblox joints on his arms and legs.

Although I am the proud owner of VegaH2's Jato Fuhrer.

I'm not, but then you told me ages ago over MSN XD

Oh jeez, that is a lot of names! My computer's called Phil, but that's because its a Philips, my Sony Walkman's called Chap and the wii's called Trevor or something silly like that. I'm really bad at naming things, hell, the cat was called "Unnamed Animal" for about four days. (she's called Millie now!)

More updates! The legs are sort of attached, though I was worried about the back right leg, moments after I took this photo, it fell off.




Yes, I know only one foot is attached, the feet keep breaking, which is really annoying, luckily my friend Jacob says he'll lend me his gluegun, he also told me to be careful not to electricute myself. So this should be interesting!



And finally, here's a shot of shieldy's problematic cockpit, it didn't actually fall there (it was on the floor and I spent forever scrambling around to try and find the pilot) but I thought you'd find this shot amusing.



Pretty sure I'd be annoyed too if I were in his position!

[Comrade Bluey Nomface]

My shieldy's cockpit is broken the exact same way yours is. o.O
Or rather, my blood liger. My cat knocked it over when I was at school and somehow the cockpit broke. It doesn't make any sense

[Pirate]

In some ways I prefer having a broken cockpit. The cockpit was the most annoying piece when I was trying to put shieldy together. I put the head together about five times before I got it right :/

Mine was actually broken AT school, I needed to take him in to finish off some studies in art and I couldn't be bothered to find any bubblewrap that morning, so I just plopped him in a plastic bag, stuck him in my bag and was on my way. His entire head fell off, but only the cockpit was damaged. Another piece was lost, and I've only just realised what that was, oh well, its not too important.

[Comrade Bluey Nomface]

My blood liger has the belly pipes missing too. I lost one of them and took the other one off because it was annoying me XD I think the shieldies look better without them honestly ;D

[Coffee Mix-Master]

Ooooh, I'll have to keep my eyes on this. Steampunk is win Of course, I'd expect nothing less from a lass from the East Midlands, the heart of the Industrial Revolution ;D

[Pirate]

Really? I quite like them! Though it is a pain that they're constantly falling off.

Steamy doesn't have those because he has no guns, and the part that goes behind the chest gun (the one with the pipes on it) looks odd without the gun infront. I might stick them on later, I have a thing about pipes.

Why thankyou! Yes steampunk is loooverly.

Hahah! My family's not originally from the East Midlands, but I've always lived here, I used to run off and go and play on the local disused coal tip which is about half a mile down the road from here. There was always at least one burnt out car down there, I guess I've always had a thing for worn out metals.

Lol, yeah places like that do tend to attract dead cars don't they? And shopping trolleys. If I had a quid for every dead shopping trolley I've seen in a river, or upside down in a park somewhere. It's like there's some kind of shopping trolley herd that only comes out at night and feeds on wastelands.
Perhaps the cars hunt them?
