It's not a bird, it's not a plane...

Post by TroopaDee »

...IT'S SUPERGIRL!

(This is my first MOC post here, if this is not allowed please let me know)
I decided to build something with my new Supergirl figure, so this is what I came up with! It's supposed to be Supergirl zooming across the top of the water creating waves from the speed. No photo editing was used here! My first time at building with curves so don't be too harsh on me, but C&C is welcome and enjoy!

It stands up, and I've got a few "behind the scenes" shots in my photostream if you're interested:

To me it was very obvious what it was - no explanation required.

I don't know who would be too harsh on you... it's a fantastic little build!

Is Supergirl being supported by a clear rod which you've hidden behind her with your choice of camera angle?

Scratch that question. I clearly hadn't looked at your BTS photos yet, which reveal how she's 'flying' and more. :-)

This is great to hear! :) I was a bit worried that people might not have understood what it was supposed to be, so I'm glad that you got it! And yes, you guessed it, "gun" rod (so I could put the rod into the other bricks) and camera angle. I don't really like using photo editing on my MOCs (I know some people take a photo of the MOC without the figs and then take another with the fig on trans bricks so it's "floating" and then overlay them on top of each other) so I tried to use the camera angle to hide the rod. :P

The build is great.

The angle you took the picture at hides the rod well. Staging pictures can sometimes be tricky.

Looks good. I also knew what you were going for and saw the Gun rod on her heel, which is a great way of getting that perfect flying photo. nice work.

As for posting, you are in the right place. This if the forum for whatever MOCs you want to share.
