Jimbob Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 I've wanted to do this for a long time now, but it's only five years after the movie's release (and a few before the sequels) that I've had a go. I... I dunno. I'm not really happy with it. A Na'vi averages 10ft tall, so should be just less than twice the height of a human. Can anyone please help me improve upon the model? Note: There shouldn't be any gap between the 1x2 jumper and the body, LDD just won't let me put the technic pieces all the way in.

aidenpons Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 The Na'vi looks very blue... devoid of any other colour. Try green? The "face" doesn't look like one, frankly. Other than that, it looks quite good. I'd consider putting some form of plate on the torso so you can have PRETTY COLOURS . The feet are quite good, but you might want to make some form of hand for the arms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noghiri Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 I agree about the face. It needs to be more... facelike. It also lacks the white markings the Navi had in the movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aidenpons Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 I agree about the face. It needs to be more... facelike. I'll second that. It also lacks the white markings the Navi had in the movies. The only way those could be added is by stickers. so I'm not too fussed about those.

Jimbob Posted November 28, 2014 Author Share Posted November 28, 2014 Ah, I should have said, I was more looking for help in the main construction than with the decoration. As aidenpons suggested I'd be using stickers most likely for those details (including facial features, not sure if that would look okay though). I'll add some hands to him (a clip should do fine). How could I make the face more 'facelike'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fush Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 First suggestion: forget about knees and elbows. Minifigures generally don't have them, so that's not a big deal, and trying to add them will only bulk up the model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, but isn't the goal to make it smaller? Besides, it's easier to add more detail when not worrying about keeping it articulate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noghiri Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 I thought the scale was right but his goal was to make it look better. I think the arms and legs are about perfect, the main problem for me is the head, which recalls to mind IG88 from Star Wars or possibly the Geth. Replace the flat faceplate with a stud and see what I mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
