Description Natural Weapons: Thick tail, tusks, spines
Mechanical Implants: Enhanced Talons and jaw, dorsal Plating
Location: Arid and/or Volcanic areas, some forest areas
Bio:
----

Overly aggressive, Gilloraptors are named for the scythe-like talons that adorn their hands. Covered in a series of spikes, and a jaw that can snap even metal, these raptors are monsters of death.
Boasting a pair of tusks on either side of the face, these aid in nest building, mating and are surprisingly not for combat. Leadership in packs is determined by tusk size and battle skills.

This is my first creature build using HF 2.0 as the skeleton and base material. It will proudly join the ranks of Botaraptor, Quaza Dragon and the other 'dinosaur' mocs.

I've never done commissions, and don't really have plans to lately. It's kinda just a hobby of mine that I don't got a lot of time to pour into.

I'm gonna be honest with you...this thing kicks ass. I would love you forever if you had directions on how to build this. It's cool if you don't though. I understand that that would be a bit of a pain in the ass. This is awesome. I love the color scheme too.

The overall look of this is very nice, flows well together with a definite raptor appearance. The huge lower jaw is great, that mask works so very well there.

Nice usage of the hero parts ^^
I'm currently working on a way to use them too ...
Good color sheme and nice accent with the silver jaw, works good together with the dark silver back. Would you've prefered it if they had the same color?

Barrelex In reply to Alex-Darkrai [2011-04-12 03:41:23 +0000 UTC]

I'd much prefer a darker silver mask in retrospect, but access to my parts was limited at building time.

Someone's adapting to 2.0 well. You did a great job using the new parts Barrel. I wish I had that much to work with so I could really jump into it. Is that what, two nex figures, or three?

2 sets

Yeah you told me in another comment. Two stormers for the skeleton parts and the silver armor parts and two Nex for the rest, and the spikes come from Atlantis sets. How efficient do you think it is to buy canister sets with your style? DO you end up using everything or end up with a lot of parts you end up not touching like I do?

90% gets used, then the leftover gets stored.

Plague-Doc-Matteo In reply to Barrelex [2011-04-14 06:50:02 +0000 UTC]

Ah that's better than my rate. But I'm sure that'll go up with the new Hf sets considering how new and useful the parts are. I've got plenty of limbs and bodies from canister sets. Its the unique armor and weapons that get used the rest usually gets thrown in my massive parts pile and forgotten about.

Barrelex In reply to Plague-Doc-Matteo [2011-04-15 04:29:49 +0000 UTC]

huh. most often its limbs and armor that get used and the weapons get put away till later...

Plague-Doc-Matteo In reply to Barrelex [2011-04-15 09:02:24 +0000 UTC]

Not with me. I've got excess limbs and body parts. Like anything pre-stars It was all just the same pieces with different weapoins and masks slapped on them.

AWesome, another great monster, his head kind of reminds me of my Character Ark, he has a metal jaw and orange goggles ;D

I really like his head and tail, the little arms are great too D:
