The MOC

Graduate Brickheadz

 

This MOC features a fully customizable graduation Brickheadz-style model perfect for celebrating all the special graduates in your life! With 360 different combinations, everyone can find the perfect look for them! Specifically, the instructions include building options for 4 skin colors, 5 hair colors, 10 hair styles, and an option to add glasses, but builders are more than welcome to make any of their own personal customizations as well! It should be noted that the inventory for this MOC includes all of the parts needed to build any one graduate combination. To find the inventory for a specific combination, open the included graduate.io Studio file and find the desired combination. Then, copy and paste it into a new Studio file and go to "Model Info" under the "Model" tab at the top of the screen. This page will display the entire inventory needed for that one specific combination. Studio will also provide you with options to export the parts as a .csv file or upload the parts directly to a BrickLink wanted list! If you need any help with finding part inventories, don't hesitate to reach out because I'm happy to help! The specifications provided below are a range of all the possible specifications for any graduate combination.

 

These skin and hair colors are featured in the MOC's inventory, but any other colors could work great too!

 

These 10 hair styles could also be mix and matched to create even more combinations! For example, the bangs on one hair style could be swapped out with the bangs from a different hair style!

 

With 360 different looks to choose from, there's something for everyone!

When I first started working on this project, my main priority was to make sure that this graduate was as customizable as possible, so that everyone can find an option that looks like them! Once I had the base cap and gown built, I began working on different hair styles! I decided on 10 various types of hair, and made sure to only use parts that come in a wide range of colors! Then I began to work on creating the instructions. My goal was to make the customization process as simple as possible, so the instructions have clear steps indicating when different options are available, and the instructions of course include steps on how to build all 10 hair styles! I also decided to include a Studio file with all 360 combinations so that builders can easily determine the parts needed for each specific one!

I hope you enjoy this MOC! And don't forget, instructions are available to purchase on Rebrickable here! A special congratulations to everyone who graduated this year, you are incredible! :)

Keep building,
