New to Lego building. Need help with making a Lego Garchomp
BlockTalk Summary
The LEGO community is always ready to help builders of all skill levels, as demonstrated by a recent request for assistance with a custom LEGO build. A new LEGO builder, /u/SandwichKooky8707, is seeking advice on how to incorporate a rotating torso into their LEGO Garchomp model.
The builder is attempting to add a rotating torso to their custom Garchomp model, aiming for a mech-like design. They previously experimented with a larger model using Technic socket and ball bricks to achieve movement, but now they are struggling to replicate this on a smaller scale while maintaining stability. The original design was inspired by a video from user eyemcantoeknees, which is now private. The builder is specifically seeking advice on how to rebuild the torso to allow for proper rotation without compromising the model's stability.
The challenge lies in adapting a successful design from a larger model to a smaller one. The builder's initial approach involved creating a gap in the middle of the torso to allow for movement without collision. Now, they're looking for innovative solutions to achieve the same effect in a more compact build.
For those new to LEGO building, the process can be challenging. Consider using a LEGO brick separator to help disassemble and rebuild your model.
I'm very new to lego building and was using a base design from user: eyemcantoeknees, whos original video of the build is now private. At the moment I'm trying to add rotation to the torso at the waist so I can have rotation in all directions. Basically going for a mech kind of design. I had worked on a bigger model before realizing it was too big for contest submission which had used technic socket and ball bricks to allow for the movement. Creating a gap in the middle that allowed it...
