Those are amazing, especially the Ice Lord.

Thanks, GT. I'll have the angled views up soon, but in the meantime, what do you guys think of this? http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Riversong/MNI/raginus_test.png I was bored, so I decided to try my hand at modifying a Komau to look more like the one on VLD's poster.

nice. you gonna get me the list of things to model HN? do you still need things modeling HN?

The answer to both of your questions is yes, Warrior; I've been working on the list, but haven't finished it yet. I'll be sure to get it to you today or tomorrow though.

And here are the angled views, as promised:

one thing i would say is with angonce change the back ground colour to really dark gray instead of just black coz he is black it is alil hard to see him in as much detail as the others

@WoJ: Alright, I should be able to upload that tomorrow.

And I've been working on texturing a few of my incomplete models (namely the ELs of Sand and Water); would anybody be interested in seeing those?

i would be interested in seeing those

At Warror's request: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Riversong/MNI/angonce.png

And http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Riversong/MNI/el_of_sand_wip6.png
All I need to finish it is the helmet, which, as far as I know, doesn't even have any concept art made for it yet. As for the EL of Water, I'm still working on a few of his textures and should have a new render up sometime this weekend.

ah thats better you can see more detail. great job on the EL of sand aswell

I'm sorry that this took so long, but with standardized tests and exams coming up in a matter of days, I haven't had very much time to work on MNI stuff...but hopefully this was worth the wait: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Riversong/MNI/el_of_water_wip3.png

looks great

I've started on another model: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Riversong/MNI/el_of_jungle_wip1.png

looks nice. what character is this for?

oh by the way you have two masks from Gen_X in your BNG work folder

http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Riversong/MNI/el_of_jungle_wip2.png
@WoJ: It's the Element Lord of Jungle. And the masks look great, by the way.

wow that model is looking nice

http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Riversong/MNI/el_of_jungle_wip3.png

@WoJ: Thanks. Oh, and could you PM a list of which reference pictures you still need?

PM sent

A minor texture update to Lein's blade: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Riversong/MNI/lein_with_blade.png

@WoJ: I'll see about getting those to you soon, then.

great work HN and thanks

I've started work on the EL of Stone: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Riversong/MNI/el_of_stone_wip1.png

An update that I'll admit to procrastinating on: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Riversong/MNI/el_of_stone_wip2.png I'll add the textures later, because I just don't feel like doing it today.

So five of the ELs have been at the very least partially modeled: one is finished and the other four need pieces modeled that I don't have. Now, normally I would just proceed onto the sixth; unfortunately, there is a slight hitch in my way. The only photo I've found of the EL of Fire MOC is rather small with many key details obscured. For those of you who missed the earlier stuff about photos, clarity, multiple angles, and all that other fun stuff that may or may not concern you, I'll say it outright: I can't make the model based off of that one picture. It just doesn't work, because without being able to see the entire thing, I have no idea which pieces go where (or in this case, which pieces to use at all). By now you might be wondering if I'm ever going to get to the point of this block of text, so here it is: are there any more pictures of the MOC that I could use for references? Because if not, I'm going to have to implement some drastic improvisation, even more so than I did with the EL of Sand.

The EL of Fire was made almost two years ago by someone who just not around anymore. I've tried to reach him before, but he just doesn't reply to any of my pms and/or emails. I guess he's just not interested anymore.

Try improvising for now; maybe someone will remake it. I'll be announcing more on MNI's status soon.

Alright then, I'll see what I can do with it.

Here's a few smaller updates: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Riversong/MNI/el_of_jungle_wip4.png

And I've nearly finished modeling the EL of Fire; I'll post an image of it very soon.

Wow... I just love what you did with both of those.
