Well, I've taken pictures of all the MOCs that I made during BZP's downtime, and now it's time to post them! Here's the once I made most recently: Shadow Takanuva.

Firstly this is a pretty good toa - gratz.
Onto the criticism:
The shoulders are way too high, it makes this guy look like a hunch back. You really need to moderator the body so that the arms connect in a different way that negates the need for the 'hordika heads' Secondly the upper arms look very bare. The armour you've attached only really covered the back of the arm - but maybe twisting it around would help this.

In any case it's a good model. Nothing wrong with the colour scheme whatsoever. Looks very trim.

Nice use of some Hero Factory limbs. The legs are pretty cool too, but the nuva shoulder armor looks out of place.

Sadly, school and other forums are limiting my activity here.

If I'm not logged in and posting, however, I'll still have BZP open as a tab in Chrome.

Thanks! As for the hunch-backedness, I think that the long mask contributes to making it look like his shoulders are higher than they are. Also: while the tops of the Hordika necks are somewhat high, the actual shoulders are lower. However, if I work more on him I'll keep your comments in mind :).

Thanks for your compliments! I might try changing the armor, but I'm somewhat attached to it because it's the armor that Takanuva had on his shoulders :P

Thanks again, both of you!
