Exo Suit

I did no research for this model. Obviously it's a nod to Aliens and the Matrix (and WH40k Sentinels). But I didn't look at a single reference picture till it was done.

    Fantastic!

    This is great, love those details...

    this is awesome, my only nit would be the hands don't feel like the same style as the rest of it... ignore me it's fantastic.

    Even better than yesterdays version. It's a pity you have to use some pearl grey though. Still, at least it's your own rules you're breaking!

    great figure, you have been very bussy

  7. LouiseDade (44 months ago | reply)

    Rules are made to be broken! Especially when it results in something awesome.

    Another awesome job. Greebletastic.

    As far as the hands, did you try it without the horn "claws?"

    Really fantastic looking suit.

    Well done! Though I agree that the hands look a bit off.

    And I'd be lost without reference pictures. . . .

    Wow. It's like you took all the greebs from one of your ships, balled them up, and made them walk around. That's an unbelievable achievement. It's just amazing. Like a robot without its skin.

    Pete, you don't need no stinkin' reference picture! ;)

    Your building style never fails to amaze.

    I'm not sure on the hands either, they feel too organic with the sharp claws, maybe if you left off the spike pieces and just left the exo-force arms. Otherwise I like this.

  14. Fazoom (44 months ago | reply)

    guh... I can't fathom it. Great job

  15. Amhakia (44 months ago | reply)

    Might have been a good thing that you didn't have reference for this one. But whatever the case...DAMN!!!

    I weep at the beauty. And because of my sorry excuse for a power armor design sitting in front of me.

  17. julencin2000 (44 months ago | reply)

    So beautiful!!!!!

  18. fifthconspiracy (44 months ago | reply)

    Wow,... that's exciting! Love the claws.

  19. Happy Weasel (44 months ago | reply)

    This is wicked hot, Pete. I especially love the piston detailing at the hips.

  20. Legohaulic (44 months ago | reply)

    My eyes can't handle the sexy!

  21. onosendai2600 (44 months ago | reply)

    This makes me emotional.
    Lovely as usual.

  22. bermudafreze (44 months ago | reply)

    Fantastic joint tech everywhere, but the feet/ankles are especially clever.

  23. SavaTheAggie (44 months ago | reply)

    I'll chime in on just how awesome this is. I love the mottled look to it, makes it look like it's seen some action.

  24. J5N (44 months ago | reply)

    Hot damn.

  25. Genghis Don (44 months ago | reply)

    GREEBZ! Love it. Really.

  26. Joris Blok (44 months ago | reply)

    bloody awsome!

  27. Proudlove (44 months ago | reply)

    Too cool. I love it!

  28. Prophet Zarquon (44 months ago | reply)

    The thing with exo suits is that they are so improbable they have to look really good to make us ignore that. This one looks so amazing I´ll probably end up making something like this- and since I haven´t been very active lately (computer trouble etc.) that is a good thing.

    From the thumbnail I thought this was a Toy like a Transformers or something.

  30. Apocalust (44 months ago | reply)

    Holy Jaboley!

  31. <(Chris B)> (44 months ago | reply)

    This is absolutely PURE amazing....I'm just not digging the hands so much.

  32. Karf Oohlu (44 months ago | reply)

    I love it bigtime

  33. Oltar (44 months ago | reply)

    Wow! I like a lot, but, maybe you put some color pieces to make more cool.

  34. gIadius (44 months ago | reply)

    The feet joints and cockpit are what really makes it for me.

  35. The Grandpappy (44 months ago | reply)

    Fantastic! I love the look of the arms and hands.

  36. Shannon Ocean (44 months ago | reply)

    Better than that movie crap you mentioned. Far better. You rock man.

  37. bluemoose (44 months ago | reply)

    Lovely ... I look forward to handling her & watching your face as she slowly disintegrates in my ham-fisted hands :-)

  38. Dr. X. (44 months ago | reply)

    Heart! This is amazing!

  39. LegoLord. (44 months ago | reply)

    And Blogged on The Bro's Brick, man, this is one Sweet hardsuit!

    An MOC that separates the man from the boys...

    Genius, shear genius.

  43. Lloyd W [deleted] (44 months ago | reply)

    Wicked cool! I adore the exposed inner-mecha details. Fave.

  44. PI (Unresolved) (44 months ago | reply)

    Come on!!... Great shot...

    Cheers!... :-)

  45. Tagl (44 months ago | reply)

    I love the technic feel ist has. As always some brilliant details and
    techniques are featured.

  46. kenobi19 (44 months ago | reply)

    Personally, I like the hands. Very much.

  47. Toradoch (44 months ago | reply)

    Just to be different:

    This sucks Pete. The elaborate details...suck. The ingenious construction...sucks. The wide ranging posability...sucks. What a waste of time. I'm furious for just clicking on it.

    Please pack up your Lego and adopt a life of quiet misery.

  48. Compound Eye (44 months ago | reply)

    This totally sucks to the point where if it were a kit, I would have to pick up one, go to the cash desk, hand over £30 just so I could tell the assistant just how much it sucks! =)

    PS - I want one NOW!!!
    PPS - An autonomous version with a HAL redeye would kick botty all over town!!!

    Every day I came to see if you build something new... yesterday was the only day I didn't came and what I see... a fantastic creation... again.

    Grtz,
    Kurt
