MOC: Steel Strain 315

[Front]

I killed Bulk. He had a nice gun, I liked it, so I got rid of him. I don't like any hero, actually I hate them all.

I am Steel Strain 315, but you may call me Steel. I'm a villain, one of those that is not gonna be stopped by some stupid hero.

This is so cool . I love the crome colour and the neon green parts. How have you done the hero/villan core? Really really great work .

Thanks, CB

The core appears in the Drop Ship set.

I like the jets on the arms-- simple, but effective. This guy seems to be the sort who could easily be sold as a set-- if not as a stand-alone hero, at least as a part of a larger set like the Bulk & Vapour set.

Front, what are your thoughts on the new silver? From your experience, is it more consistent than pre-2010 silver parts were?

Wow. I'm impressed. I think this is the best HF MOC I've seen yet. I love all the silver, and the helmet combined with the neon green head looks very evil IMO.

I think I added too many pieces to this small character, that would drive the prize up too much. Could not sell :-)

Take it for what you want, but I just love the new colours 315 (bright metallic) and 316 (dark metallic). Not sure about the official names, but when I say metallic I really mean it. To me the parts just look more like metal with these colours, especially 315 is a big improvement. Parts with colour 315 appear slightly darker than the counterpart of the previous years, but with both in the hands, I have no doubt what people would pick as a favorite.

If 315 is more consistent, I'm really not sure, but there still will be dark lines on some parts when using metallic colours. Those dark lines are formed during the filling of the mould, and may wary a bit between the same parts.

Awesome! Looks like he might've taken some of his arm too.

[Ceroknight]

Nice job! He could easily replace any of the heroes or villains as a set.

Very impressive Hero-scale villain! I like his fully-silver color scheme, and also those transparent-green parts! =3
