This build was created in one night for the Bricksculpting Discord Summer Challenge. Yes, this build resides upon a PAB cup, and it works perfectly!

    These builds always look so cool! I am in awe of the creativity it takes to think up something like this and actually find the pieces to do it.

      I greatly appreciate it! Yeah, if you watch my Twitch VOD you’ll see how the build came to be. Of corpse I ordered a hefty amount of flat silver dinosaur tails to make this idea. However, the original build I felt was lacking, so the pics I posted here are the revamped version. Once you go past the picture where the build is on the kitchen table, the pics proceeding are the original idea.

    Where are all the tentacle parts coming from that you use in your builds? From which era or year or whatever the Lego name is for their different themes?

    And what is their original use? I find it fascinating to see how you use the pieces in completely new ways, that I would have never thought of.

      The tentacle bony parts are appendages (my favorite part!) :) : https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=15064&name=Appendage+Bony+Small+with+Bar+End+(Leg+%2F+Rib+%2F+Tail)&category=[Animal%2C+Body+Part]#T=S&O={"iconly"%3A0}

      The long flat silver pieces are dinosaur tails. https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=40378&name=Dinosaur+Tail+%2F+Neck+Middle+Section+with+Bar+Hole+and+Technic+Pin&category=[Animal%2C+Body+Part]#T=S&O={"iconly"%3A0}

      If you peep either of those links it will show what sets the pieces came in, and their release date. This was the first set I got that had those bony parts: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=70317-1#T=S&O={"iconly"%3A0}

        Thanks! 2014 is long after my time with Lego, which explains why I don’t know those parts.

          Understandable. My first set was in 1993. 2005-2014 were my dark ages and later in 2015 I got back into it… in an unhealthy way.
