toatyger Posted June 23, 2013 Posted June 23, 2013 (edited) When the threat of the Brainslug created mutants was discovered, a hero of tremendous size and power was commisioned to combat the mutant menace. This hero, this Sentinel of Makuhero City, useing his forearm mounted lasers and his rapid-fire gatling laser, as well as his over-whelming size and strength, is determed not to stop at anything to eradicate dangerous creatures terrorizing the streets of the city! Please feel free to critisize, and suggestions are always welcome! Edited June 23, 2013 by toatyger Quote
Dorek Posted June 23, 2013 Posted June 23, 2013 Ah, the 2.0 helmet structure. I actually wish they had continued that, in more colors, it definitely seemed to match their style. The right hand design is very innovative, and a good use of system pieces. Overall he has some weird proportions, and the lack of waist detracts from the otherwise largely armored build. He also appears a bit gappy in places, a common problem with utilizing the cladding and limbs; if you could find a way to fill him in a bit, make him look more solid, it would go a long way in the overall look. Red and purple, as always, are a weird color choice, but since it's distributed fairly well, I'm not one to question it. Quote
toatyger Posted June 23, 2013 Author Posted June 23, 2013 (edited) "The right hand design is very innovative" Actually, that hand design was taken streight from Kai's Fire Mech, eccept for the fingertips. Also, i could make the whole build much less messy in real life, but LLD is finicky. Edited June 23, 2013 by toatyger Quote

If you find it weird, take it up with the guy at Marvel Comics who chose those colors for the Sentinels. Edited June 23, 2013 by Jetrax99 Quote
mrfang2 Posted June 23, 2013 Posted June 23, 2013 it seems like the torso is a bit long, and the chest area looks a little messy, but other than that its a great build Quote
DraikNova Posted June 23, 2013 Posted June 23, 2013 I'd remove or change the armor addons on the lower legs, maybe lengthen the left arm and position the lowest set of torso armor differently. It's a pretty good MOC, though. Quote
Chro Posted June 23, 2013 Posted June 23, 2013 Unpleasantly gappy, but it's no worse in that regard than most of the official XL builds, I guess. The color scheme works surprisingly well here. Quote

Eh, seems more Magneto's colors, and yeah, it's still weird =P. I'm not sure how I'd feel if they were purple in the upcoming DoFP, but if I can deal with yellow jumpsuits, I can probably deal with purple sentinels.
