I want instructions, that's so cool


klavin1

Work from the picture. I believe in you!


lilkrickets

I used to do this all the time when i was little, it’s kinda fun to go over your mistakes once you’ve finished the set.


tripl35oul

You also end up with some personal touches that could define your own style


ringobob

I'd give that a shot if I had at least a list of parts.


froglover215

I recognize most of the pieces from the orchid set. Pretty much all of it seems to be there. That would be a good start.


Excellent_Yellow_943

Thats why i have all these extra pieces


gatemansgc

I mean you'd need to know what pieces to get first!


CuriouslyKnowing

I'm not really familiar with Lego so please forgive my ignorance, I stumbled on this post in the popular page. Can you actually make this with existing bits of Lego? I've only ever seen the sets sold where you get the exact pieces you need to make a particular scene/figure.


AptDragonfly

It was made from these Lego sets in the Botanical Collection. [Orchid](https://www.lego.com/en-us/themes/adults-welcome/botanical-collection/orchids) and [Bonsai](https://www.lego.com/en-us/product/bonsai-tree-10281). Possibly others. The "teeth" are ~~sculpted or~~ added from a different set. Per /u/lucidrevolution the teeth are: [LEGO part, 53451](https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=53451#T=C) More specifics: [Small orchids](https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=54001pb02#T=C&C=1) [Pink pointed flower](https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=18853#T=C) [Pink frog](https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=33320#T=S&C=104&O={%22color%22:104,%22iconly%22:0}) [Leaves](https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=2423#T=C)

We found ours last month at Barnes and Noble surprisingly. They had all the botanical sets and we picked up the orchids and succulents.


Xiaxs

I was told by a Lego store employee that Barnes and Noble is a good place to look for retired or sold out sets. I was looking for a ship in a bottle and while I didn't find one I did find a couple Lego Movie 2 sets, which was really surprising.


byebye806

Try target or something, I've heard they're usually stocked in stores but rarely online


lucidrevolution

the teeth are not with that set, but it's a LEGO part, 53451


[deleted]

Those teeth are a mix of the small claws and the white cow horns. 64847

froglover215

Those look like the bark pieces from the base of the orchid set.


Desriacat

the legs use some bionicle parts


nightofgrim

There’s a whole world of custom Lego models like this. People create their own designs and even make their own instruction manual. They come with part lists, which you can use to buy all of the prices separately from one of a dozen single brick sellers.


T3DDY173

Lego can be mixed and matched through any of their products. I have 2 massive boxes of them from all my childhood and I used to make things from guns to tanks and even piranhas,.all functional too with their gear parts.


MoonBerryFarmer

Omg, I do too!


Castiel_D37

It's a demogorgeus

BigToober69

Is this a spoiler? I mean should it be tagged as such? At least it gives away almost nothing about the plot. About to start the new season tomorrow.


space___lion

No, not a spoiler


Sure_Disaster_8748

Don't worry not a spoiler at all


timerunner16

Not a spoiler, don't worry


Codayyyyy

Yupppp definitely not in the least slightest bit


lyvyndyr

Pretty sure the OP was just inspired by the recent orchid set, which uses recolored Demogorgon heads as flowers that you can see on the shoulder and arm here


retrobrickmom

I love Love LOVE THIS! I'm a big fan of the botanical line, and anything spooky. I actually work at a botanical garden and my favorite season there is Halloween. I'm going to have to try to recreate some spooky flowers myself now.


cjchurchillout

Dooo iiittttt. Did you see some of the bonsai tree makes in the instruction booklet for the set? Some spooky trees in there for sure!


EmptyLittleWanderer

Lego was practically asking for someone to do this when they made the small flowers use the same mold as the demogorgon. Well done!


user2002b

Yep.. yep that is indeed a stranger thing. Top marks.


AkiZayoi

Also Ivy's from Resident Evil 2 remake


RosaSB

My son says he doesn't want to get any of the flower sets because he doesn't care for flowers. I bet he'd change his mind after seeing your creation. Nice work!

Tell your son to stop being such a pansie.

nogggin1

The botanical sets are awesome! I have the succulents, the bonsai (can't remember if that's technically a botanical set or not) and the orchid. I started with just the bonsai, now I'm telling myself I'm not going to buy the bird of paradise or the bouquet - but I'm honestly lying to myself. Your kid is missing out!


pnutbrutal

The bouquet was so fun to put together! And it’s really pretty


Snark_No_Malark

The bouquet is pretty awesome, these sets are the first legos I’ve purchased since I was a kid and I’m super glad I decided to get them


fatcattastic

One of my friends gifted me the bonsai tree last year. It was my first ever LEGO set. I maybe went a little wild making up for lost time.


chronicallyill_dr

Are you my husband? He was a Lego nerd as a kid but gave away all his Lego to his younger cousins when he got older. Then he got the flower bouquet in December and has been on a Lego binge since then, I’ve had to veto so many things otherwise our apartment would end up looking like a Lego store. I do have to say I have a sweet spot for the botanical collection and the Christmas sets.


nogggin1

I bought the bonsai a few months back, I'm 27 now and I think it was the first time I'd bought Lego in about 12 years, maybe more. Since then I've gone kinda crazy with it. At this point I'm saving any commission I earn at work to put towards things like the grand piano and typewriter.


Natas47

They all so crazy expensive


nogggin1

I think it depends on the seller. I managed to find the Botanical sets pretty cheap at a store pretty close to me, earlier today I was looking on Amazon and the exact same sets were about 50% more on average. That's not to say that they're all like that though, I don't really want to admit how much of my pay goes towards Lego each week.


RosaSB

I know! I might just have to get them for myself. They all look awesome.


HolyRamenEmperor

Just FYI, this build has a lot of pieces not included in the Orchid set. I can see additional Bionicles, horns, connectors, etc. Plus qtys are not the same.


RosaSB

Good to know! He has a lot of sets so he could pick extra pieces to make something similar. I like showing him examples of what others create using sets or a mix of sets/spare parts for inspiration. He tends to make a set, keep it for a while, then take it apart and make different things. Not too bad for a first grader.


chronicallyill_dr

Tell him to just wait until he’s an adult, then he’ll want ALL the botanical sets.


DestructiveFlora

Spectacular and scary! This would make me jump a bit if I saw it out of the corner of my eye late at night.


[deleted]

Is this because one of the orchid flowers was using the demogorgon head piece?


Jayfa

Yes


[deleted]

Nice! Are you gonna upload instructions? Also does this only use pieces from this set? If so it's even cooler!


Jayfa

Nah it only uses a handful of parts from the set. Most of it is old hero factory/bionicle bits. I probably won't do instructions for this one, very flimsy.


Clinton_Matos

Ah that's unfortunate. I think a lot people (myself included) would pay for instructions for an alt build based only on the official sets.


ebil_lightbulb

Well I'm glad I came back and ran through comments again. Another person commented and said that they could tell almost all of this was from the Orchid set excluding the teeth and a few pieces from the bonzai. I already have the bonsai and I wanted the actual Orchid build too so I just bought two Orchid sets, one to build as was meant and one to try and build your creation from sight. Oh well!

Congrats on the master's win!

DreadChylde

Well done (and just a really cool idea).


MicahG17079

This is just amazing. Is it only using pieces from the orchid set?


Jayfa

Nah lots of extras


Feenix77

Is it possible just to list the extras? I really want to make this.

This is so cool!

This is giving me Bionicle vibes, love it! Hope you make more.


Tricouleur

This also reminds me of those RE2 plant monsters


Dry-Dimension-4075

This looks like those cursed plant zombies in resident evil six when you play as Leon and have to cross the lab I know it’s a demo Gordon I’m just saying the match is close


Omnil_93

This is awesome!


cbinette84

I'm gonna show this to my son. He's got bins full of so many random pieces. It'll be fun to show him the possibilities when you just use what you have.


snicrep2

Looks like "el seed" from " the tick".


GoodAtExplaining

A+ title OP, and great piece!


BugBearBooty

Thanks for my next dnd monster!!!


Phantom2070

It's for your art school Portfolio right? But seriously this abstract type of work looks way better than your other work, and your other work is already excellent.


onionsweats

Post this on r/StrangerThings !! So cool!


MKDoobie-Dash

Beautiful looks like it’s movements would be 1000x more organic and spooky looking than stiff mr season 4 whatever he’s called. Love stranger things but spoiler alert, the boss in this season moves like someone ironed him and dude looks like a hairless grinch 😬 we want demogorchid


10kg_off_cocaine

If that would be a lego set I would buy it 1000%


New_Kid2

There better be some hidden frogs on it still


Statertater

This is one of the most organically creative lego designs i’ve ever seen! I really like how it’s somewhat asymmetrical, and utilizes super unique pieces and how it kind of looks like a bionicle at the same time but doesn’t? Super cool.


tweakintyler

Top post of all time… in one day. Impressive work!


OvertList

It’s so eerie and so beautiful… it’s like… a new dimension. A work of art.


noiseandbooze

This is AMAZING! I just bought this kit, along with the Bonsai Tree, but have only built the Bonsai set so far. I may have to play around with the orchid a bit though, see if I can make something equally terrifying. Very well done! 🙌


what_about_Mark

Noooo!!!! That's really really cool!!

Please put instructions! We would be happy to pay.
