Somewhere off in the stony wastes, something is hungry. ^ Click this photo to view the MOCpages gallery. ^ Something different from my usual MOCs... this is my first complete non-humanoid build in months. I'm quite satisfied with it. Sorry for the relatively small amount of photos, but there's really not a large variety of poses I can put a giant scorpion in. Feedback is appreciated.
-
I do agree with a lot of what Aanchir said. This is a frustrating issue as a MOCist, especially when you've made a MOC that has the same helmet as something but doesn't look like it, and someone says that it does, just because of the mask. Or when a certain MOCist makes a MOC with that mask which somehow becomes iconic (specifically Ben Cossy, though most of you won't know him) and everyone says that your MOC with the same mask is just a rip-off of that one... I explained that poorly, hopefully you know what I mean.
-
Oh, cool. I remember that now. Three eyes would've been interesting.
-
I feel like I've seen that before, but I don't remember what it looks like. I do agree though, a bunch of the prototypes and design sketches looked pretty awesome, especially around the Phantoka line (though some people disagree with me about that).
-
Thanks! Trust me, I will... catapult scorpion revamp this week! :D
-
So how come Hero Factory doesn't rate a proper TV show?

... No. -
Ah, you mean a custom Technic build... well, the torso is a good start. :)
-
Thanks Nova. The upper legs are actually quite simple, as far as custom Technic limbs go. I could probably do a breakdown for that design, if you'd like.
-
I'd recommend editing your previous post to add the photos instead of double-posting... Anyway, what do you mean by scratch build? Scratch-and-sniff?
-
Yeah, I'd suspect that it was made for Rocka, but not given to him immediately- thus his name being on the side of it. You know, Hero Recon and all their random projects.
-
Well, they sometimes do (for example, a racecar driver's jumpsuit will have the same company colors as the car). But I still prefer to keep them separated to some degree, like the Rockoh, Axalara, Jetrax, etc. as mentioned by Aanchir.
-
Thanks Mego. It's one of my favorite colors, and sadly, as you said, pretty hard to use in BioMOCing.
-
Thanks Cirkit. The upper legs were a random idea I had when fiddling around with parts, I think it looks okay. The shoulder joints actually have enough rotation so that the armor doesn't block his face in most normal poses. :D

^ Click the photo above to view the flickr photo set. ^ This is Vander, Toa of the Green. A week or so ago, I built a generic silver and black MOC, then decided to use a color for accents that I wouldn't be able to use as the main color of a MOC. Sand green was the color that I chose, as you can see. Vander is maybe some sort of ninja or ranger character, I'm not really sure what he is exactly. He wields an axe, but also fights hand-to-hand when necessary. His Kanohi, though Tryna-shaped, is actually a Huna. Feedback on the MOC is appreciated.
-
Eh... I need to build a good vehicle MOC soon, it's been a while since I've done that.
-
Pretty simple, but interesting. It might look good to have a separate accent color for the core, or maybe also the eyes and electricity parts, instead of purple, but that's just me.
-
Uh... no, considering the name Dark Maker is fake, it isn't.
-
Looks nice, and fills that area in better, too. :)
-
Uh... considering Calendar King (or Man) is an obscure DC villain, I'm gonna call BS.
-
Thank you for the feedback, Aanchir. I agree, the main issues are in some of the proportions. Just a few things to note though- the upper arms are actually quite short, they just blend with the almost-completely-vertical shoulder connection, which makes them look like that. Also, the upper body isn't actually too heavily armored, or at least wasn't supposed to be; the axes were meant more as aerodynamic blade-wing things. Without them there it'd look weird, though, since they're covering a strange shoulder gap... eh. That's something to improve upon next time, I guess. XD
-
Thanks Nova. I've seen Axonn blades as armor before, but never sloped down and curved back on the shoulders (though it's obviously possible that it has been done before). :P
-
[The picture above links to the MOCpages gallery.] Akeja is a female Toa of Magnetism. She uses her power to control a generator, which allows her to move extremely quickly. Akeja is also very skilled at hand-to-hand unarmed combat. Feedback is appreciated.
-
I think that Brain Wars is probably just a book title for the Brain Attack event, not something we've not seen yet.
-
Cool. I feel like the limbs could use some silver to balance the colors. Also, random idea, it might look interesting if you made the legs a and torso shorter but kept the arms the same, so he'd essentially be a little terrifying ball of murder.
-
Yep. Haha, thanks Rook. I might've mentioned this already, but the legs were the first part I built, so I armored them the most. ;D
