Umarak the Destroyer Mods

Recommended Posts

Umarak the Destroyer is an ok set but he wasn't bulky enough for my liking. So I've made a few changes to him. They are as followed

1. Completely redesigned the torso so its much bulkier

2. Bulked up legs slightly

3. Removed claw gimmick so he can have poseable wrists.

4. Changed up the horns on the mask. I didn't like how Umarak's horns went away when he put on the Mask of Control so I combined them with the Mask of Control's horns. Umarak's horns are now gold.

5. Moved the jaw up so its not hanging down so far.

With that out of the way here are pictures.

Comparison with my Umarak the Hunter mod. (I've made some more changes to Umarak the Hunter since the topic I posted about him)

Version with the original horns the set had in case someone wanted to see him like that

Lastly two poses. One of him screaming from his transformation. The other holding the trans orange and gunmetal version of his mask

I like the version with the original horns better, but I actually found out that the angle 5 connector that is used to connect the horns was made in yellow, and I'm curious how that would look in place of the black ones. I think it might make the connectors less obvious.

I drastically shortened the horns on mine, mostly because I hate the hollow horn pieces they used. The small gold spiderleg/bone/horn actually looks a lot horns on the Mask of control. What did you do with his lower jaw?

I used these pieces to connect the lower jaw. They worked surprisingly well as it make the lower jaw almost fit flush with the mask

Very nice use of parts on the jaw. I like the added bulk, though the bohrok eyes seem a bit OU on the lower legs IMO. If I could improve anything it would be the torso. Maybe it's just personal preference but maybe slim the waist a little bit? He sorta looks like a nuclear samosa with that shape. Just my opinion though, nice job regardless!

Here's mine, I filled in the gaps in the chest (also added crystals armor to the back) and redid the head with the jaw further back and higher up, with drastically shortened horns to emulate the mask of control.

Also, did anyone else notice how good the Umarak mask Ekimu has looks on this guy?
