Glideslopeby ~welcometothedarksyde

Traditional Art / Sculpture / Lego

Glideslope fixes large atmospheric solar collection stations, he can even reach a low orbit to repair satellites. Generally for small repairs Glideslope is more economical to send up than a Helicopter. Despite his brutish appearance he is well learned and a great improviser. These qualities certainly come in handy when he's 100,000 feet off the ground trying to fix a power plant. Glideslope is always willing to help when a friend is in need.

Glideslope, one of the coolest names I've ever used on a MOC. Firstly Glideslope isn't a made up word, it's the ground instrumentation used for guiding landing aircraft. I'm a big fan of aviation, and considering this is kind of my self MOC It's a fitting name. I also like how his lower legs look a bit like Transformers ROTF Megatron's legs.

I'm not a fan of Titan sets. I Axonn and Brutaka were the first and last I ever bought. But if this were a set... you're damn right I'd want it.

Agreed

where are those wings from?

3182 LEGO City Airport

I really like this MOC Liam. This is the kinda stuff I try to do. This MOC reminds me of Relic in the sense that we both made rather large figures using unique parts.

The armoring and use of shapes is very well done here. He looks like a very solid build, makes me wish I had that much HF in silver. Good job.

Actually this did remind me of Relic, especially a bit earlier in his construction when he had thinner legs.
Though he looks like it, he isn't very solid

That's cool. I'm no really jealous of that wing part thing. Though I'd probably build something similar to what you did here. Which Aiplain set did you get that from?

Oh? How come? Is he really back heavy because of the wings or just not jointed all that well?

~welcometothedarksyde Oct 17, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

I got the wing from 3182 LEGO City Airport.
He is actually very stable because he has great heels, and his articulation is quite passable. By not solid I meant parts of his armor fall off if not handled properly.

Wow, that sets got quite an assortment of parts. Looking at systems sets makes me wish I had bought more when I could have. Though if I did that I wouldn't have as much bionicle as I do now. Do you have any plans for the fuselage parts?
Oh I see. Well then just secure the armor better. That's not all that hard it seems.

Well I was thinking of making another HF airplane. Nothing too well thought out though. I have no immediate plans for disassembling Glideslope so surely I will fix some of his weak spots
