Assyrian S-143 White Widow Spider Tank

[Ben-Jammin]

I was trying to design something that would be worthy of a mention on The Brothers-Brick, to prove to the AFoL community that BrikWars is obviously violent and destructive, but that the violence doesn't have to be done by shoddy rainbow creations of a nature. I have no problem with stuff like that, I just wanted to show that our community can also foster an enthusiasm among the members for attempting to achieve artistic excellence with MOCs that were designed to be put in a BrikWar. We like to blow up each-others dudes, but we can blow them up with style.

Oh, what I wouldn't do to have some of my stuff featured on TBB! Still, I guess they aren't really into big black and green   tanks. I'm not a good builder compared to what is usually posted on there.

As for the no violence policy, I personally think that they would be okay with something violent as long as its not too over the top. In other words, no guts or excessive gore, stuff like that. I've seen lots of good warfare-related builds on there before and I think they would be okay. Not to mention the fact that they did do that unforgetable zombie apocafest and who knows what else...

I've been going in the same direction as Natalya, trying to improve my builds (like my USA stuff). They're nowhere near the level of the stuff on TBB, but it might accomplish the end goal Natalya's looking for ie getting people to think brikwars =/=     .

Anyone who carries such prejudices, not to mention a 'no violence' mindset can f right off imo, I've seen lots of great stuff on here.

[Natalya]

TBB did have a spider tank on there before anyway.  I think they mean no depiction of bloodshed.

[Bragallot]

Brikshed, more likely. I'm wondering who came up with the idea that putting some red plates on minifigs that are no longer whole is more violent than the most standard violence on tv or videogames, but let's not go there.

If you want to get something on TBB, then dust off that Armored Core and take some sweet pics of it.

Naw I think the Spider Tank is a more likely winner.

Why not the entire force in one group shot?

artistic .

Am I the only one that read Autistic?

Naw I think the Spider Tank is a more likely winner.

Put it in an epic vingette, with a battle scene using the death wall, with as many assyrian soldiers trying to stop it.

Natalya - now we've seen how Halo 3000 achieves his leg technic leg stability (paper in the hole) - will you be changing the leg design of the Black Widow at all?

Also - did you ever present pic's of the leg joints, because I've been intrigued about this beauty for a while now.

[Natalya]

I posted pictures of the original joints.  Right now the front legs have the new style while the back legs have the old style.  I haven't done the paper trick yet.

The leg joints on their own? no armour and such? Because I'm not seeing those in this thread.

Unless they are parts elsewhere?

I had completely forgotten about that thread - Thanks Natalya.
