Custom Metru Matoran


CeeCee

615 views

Here is the deal. I love the Metruan, and want to make all my Matoran of this style.Of course characters like Jaller, Takua, Hahli, etc will all have the same masks but i need your thoughts on this:

I am buying all the 36 Toa Mata masks and all 36 Turaga masks.

 

I don't know whether to do this:

 

Matoran would have their designated colours. e.g. all Ta-Matoran would have orange Turaga Kanohi, and all red Mata Kanohi.

 

Or:

 

Kanohi and colours are all picked at random. e.g. A Ta-Matoran could have a green Hau

 

What should I do?

I wouldn't give any Matoran any Kanohi colour regardless of element, but there is room for mixing around a bit. Here's a list of the colours I usually use for different elements, excluding colours not in the original 72 Kanohi. I think they're all canon as well.

 

Ta-Matoran: Red, Orange, Black, Dark Grey

Onu-Matoran: Black, Dark Grey, Orange, Tan(Not sure this is seen as a mask colour for Onu)

Ga-Matoran: Blue, light blue.

Po-Matoran: Brown, Black, Tan, Dark Grey

Le-Matoran: Green, lime,

Ko-Matoran: White, Light Grey, Dark Grey

 

Outside of the 72, you can throw in Purple, Yellow, Teal and Sand Blue to liven things up, but Kanohi in those are pretty limited.

 

What are you doing about Metru torsos? As far as I know the only original colours you can get for those are Black, White and Red.

Hey Taipu. Thanks got the little key there. I'll use that when it come to it.

As for torsos im using standard Metru nui colours. might mix the hands and feet up a bit though.I really want Yellow bohrok feet, but I dont think they exsist

:kaukau: Seeing as you very clearly love colors (Am I the only person who read this entry because of the striking color formatting?), I'm just going to go ahead and say that you should just go at random, except "random" isn't quite the right word so much as the full thought "make continuity a non-issue". Give them whatever colors you think fits them. Like if someone has the personality of Clark Kent, go ahead and give them blue bodies but a red head. Or if the character somehow feels Canadian, give him a red torso and a white head and appendages.
