About The MOC

BioNerdly Is a MOC I built for Tommy Williamson's contest on his website Bricknerd called "Nerdvember ." Typically, MOCers take Nerdly, which was designed by Tommy and instructions supplied, and they put their own spin on the design. Sometimes they deviate from it and I chose the same. Going in I knew I didn't want to make the standard Nerdly component. Luckily for me I had just gotten set 42029- Customized Pick-up Truck . Its many panel elements came in very handy for building Nerdly in a larger technic oriented style. The timing was perfect to. I had the set together long enough to be ready to let it go.

Getting into the build I knew I was going to need Nerdly regardless of what direction I took so I set out to get him done ASAP. I had an empty box with most of him there. I ended up having to make a Bricklink order to get the red rims that make up his Studs. It was well worth it. I really like how those came out.

After I got the Nerdly portion figured out I struggled a little bit on what direction to go with him. After having a conversation with my dad he suggested something that inspired me and I knew what I was going to do. I was determined to turn my Technic/Constraction "BioNerdly into a Bobble-head figure! I'm quite pleased with how that function turned out. I know people have made bobbleheads before, but I wonder if anyone's made one that actually bobbled.

After that I knew I wanted to give him a cute Chibi-esque body. This proved to be most of the challenge in the MOC because I had to build him sturdy enough to hold up his big wobbly head, hence the ratchet liftarm-joints in his legs. Shapewise he's slightly modeled off of Tommy, who's not a thin guy. Its okay *pats stomach* neither am I. I also thought him having a bit of a belly would be more indicative of most nerds. We're an inactive bunch. We like our snacks and stay inside all day doing indoor nerd stuff.

Personally, this is one of my favorite MOCs that I've built in a while. He's so adorable and fun to play with. I'm glad he's mine because if it wasn't I would want him. He's so cute. His glasses can also be expressive. I had a video showcasing this but the internet died while uploading it and I had to abort it. I might post this on youtube or flickr in addition to the one already there.

There's no bio for this MOC since he's just a recreation of Tommy's Mascot. Thank you for reading, commenting, favoriting, watching, etc.
