Portal 2: Updates, News, and More

I know I haven't been posting a while but school is my top priority. I have been building models of cool things, but I didn't have the time to post them. Thanks for your patience.

Missed out on my first Portal 2 project? Click here: http://4bricktime.blogspot.com/2012/05/portal-1-2.html

If you are not familiar with LEGO CUUSOO, it is a place where you can submit a model, recieve 10,000 votes from all around the world, and depending on how good and appropriate your idea is, the LEGO Company may make a model of your idea. You can check out more by clicking here: http://lego.cuusoo.com/

Before you get confused, I am NOT the creator of the idea "Thinking with Portals" on LEGO CUUSOO. My models may look the same, but that was because I was very inspired by the project so much, I wanted my own model. I continued my own Portal theme even though on LEGO CUUSOO, the LEGO Portal project recieved its 10,000 votes because if the LEGO company doesn't make the Portal sets, I have my own version.

Now... Let's get to my custom models...

The entire Portal line-up: Wheatley, Turret, Atlas, Potato version of GLaDOS, Chell, GLaDOS as a robot (Inside orange portal), P-Body, and Companion Cube.

The only differences were on the Co-op bots Atlas and P-Body. the legs are new to allow them to stand, and the arms are now using more detailed pieces. Atlas has his shoulders raised just like in the video game. 

GLaDOS as a robot on the stand. 

Back side has details. There is supposed to be a ring of white panels around the top of the robot, however I ran out of white and smooth 2x4 pieces to make the ring. 

Chell and her new portal gun with GLaDOS Potato on the operating end. 

Wheatley head can be interchanged with the GLaDOS head. Notice the stalemate button behind him.
