Akavakaku Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 (edited) Well, if you're in this subforum you've probably seen another recent MOC of the same character, and an amazing one at that. I wish I could say it inspired me to make this, but the truth is I started working on this before the other was uploaded! My goal was to make it as close as possible to the original illustration using 100% official elements. Features: Details from original illustration including skull design in abdomen armor, mismatched horns and Kanohi Olisi stand-in.Piraka light-up eyes in custom head that snugly fits the unconventional mask (I have a photo of this if you want to see it)Complex custom torso designDoes not feature:Neck articulation (but is still capable of some expressive poses) My apologies for the fuzzy photo; I had a bad camera at the time. EDIT: Head construction: http://i.imgur.com/pUICLgW.jpg?1The 1x2x2 piece with 2 pinholes and 1 axlehole on the chin connects to a 1*2*3 piece with 4 pins and 1 axlehole.

The Hip Historian Iaredios Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 That is pretty cool for just using official pieces. I love making custom torsos, and yours looks pretty good. Legs and feet and everything in-between look a bit lacking though.

Zeb Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Looks pretty good! For what you had to work with, this is a really nice MOC! I'd like to see how that head is built.
