This is one of the MOC's I made towards the end of my summer break. I wanted to build a Rahkshi MOC but since I didn't have any heads in colors other than brown, and because I thought the Ultimate Dume mask vaguely resembled a Rahkshi head, I got around to building this.

Aaaaand here it is, people!!

Since the image seems broken, why not try the link?

And here is a link to my photostream:

I hope this works!

Alrighty then! I might post the other stuff on the stream as well, so be sure to check out these forums more often.

Very interesting! I love the body shaping and the spine. The head looks cool (nice idea with the mask), but I feel like the limbs could use some work.

It looks like a very violent MOC, alright. It does look like the standard Rahkshi. Like Chro said, nice with the mask. He's also right about the upper limbs, they're a little skinny.

Awesome job on the use of the mask and I like how it's still poseable. The spines also look really nice and my only complaint is that the arms look a bit too thin but other than that, great job on such a fearsome looking MOC!

Vorahk on steroids? Seems pretty cool to me. Spikes and head were re-done in a really cool looking manner, and you chose good pieces for a pumped-up staff. I have some issue with the random skinniness in his arms and torso, but I guess that's basically what the original was too so I can't really call it a con. :P Solid job.

And that mech on your photostream looks real darn cool. Jusayin.

The torso is definitely the best part of the MOC. I love what you did with the spines and the head. However, the arms need quite a bit of work. They are terribly out of place on such a bulky body. The legs are a bit better, if not slightly messy. The pelvis is ingenious, but it’s skeletal and full of holes.

While I typically don't do this, I felt my review of your creation would best be suited with a graphic review. The edited image can be found here.
One thing I left out of the image is the color-scheme. While you seem to adhere to a black color-scheme, there are odd spots of silver and dark grey throughout. I would improve the creation greatly if the colors were more uniform.

While the look is most certainly more threatening, I don't like how low the shoulders are, and how they are thin.
I think it would better with digitigrade feet.

It is a huge improvement, and I'd like to see a V2.

Quite impressive. I like the face, especially the use of Dume's Mask.

I love the creative use of Dume's mask, as well as the spine, and the trans-lime really brings out the colour scheme.

However, the arms need work, and the way the legs are attached looks slightly awkward.

Pretty beefed up Rahkshi! The upper torso/head area looks awesome! The lower torso/thigh area though I feel is open and lacking a bit, but overall pretty cool!

Oh no, you revived it. :( Revival in BBC is 20 days; be sure to check the date of the last post before posting.
