Hope you like it!

Nice MOC! Although it uses parts from a lot of different sets in a lot of different colors, the parts are very strategically organized so that no section is overloaded with one color like yellow or red. The end result is a mottled look that helps the creature look very bestial and organic despite its many obviously-mechanical parts.

I'm impressed that you were able to get a model this large to balance effectively. The large feet surely help with this. The wings are too small for it to seem like it can fly easily, but they add detail and help frame the face.

One thing I feel might improve the model would be to give it a longer "tail". However, I understand that while in real life tails help creatures to balance, in a MOC they can often do the opposite and upset the balance of a two-legged creation.

Anyway, this MOC isn't a masterpiece by any means. It still looks very pieced-together in areas like the back, and naturally is limited by the assorted colors and shapes of pieces used to build it. At the same time, it shows a much more thoughtful design than many of the MOCs on Brickshelf at this scale that stick strictly to the use of Hero Factory parts. So in that respect it is a success.

It's really well made.

The only thing I would suggest is to replace the yellow with silver.

Everything else is great.

Rather nice. I think it looks better with the yellow than it would with silver. I would remove those two blue pieces though, although you've probably taken this apart already.
