Mate.397 Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 http://orig08.deviantart.net/b7a5/f/2016/016/2/d/witch_doctor___revamp_by_mate397-d9o73bs.jpg Now hear me out on this one. True the original set does look nice the way it does, though it felt a little generic if you will, just another very tall humanoid baddie. Instead I used up the pieces I got from the partially complete set I bought to tweak on him a little. Though to be honest the main drive for that came from back in 2015 when I pretty much finished the MOC, this counting as the last MOC of 2015 for me still (just needed 1 more friction piece for the leg), you see my job at that car part store (the name's Unix if it says anything to anyone) decided to fire me a day before Christmas, plus I still had a week left from my try-out too. So you can imagine I was a bit ###### off, but I managed to channel my emotions into building and after a while I got this guy. I may switch out a few lift arm pieces to white though, then again the white armor pieces on him now are like those fur clothing pieces on Shamans and Witch Doctors, same for his back, giving him a sort of cloak if you will. But what I probably like the most are the Toa Mata heads used on him as shrunken heads. He also has a gear function at the waist, a little something I thought I add just for fun.Detail shots:http://mate397.deviantart.com/art/Witch-Doctor-Front-584842595http://mate397.deviantart.com/art/Witch-Doctor-Side-584842873http://mate397.deviantart.com/art/Witch-Doctor-Back-584843392http://mate397.deviantart.com/art/Witch-Doctor-Gear-function-584843900http://mate397.deviantart.com/art/Witch-Doctor-Staff-584844911http://mate397.deviantart.com/art/Witch-Doctor-Size-584845135 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millennium Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Hooray for Mata skulls! And we've got even FOUR of them here. I love four. I like it. I'd say this is one of your best creations so far, it's just so original and makes wonderful use of G1 and G2 parts. I would redo the head, though. And I have to agree with a comment on its article: it's bulky and doesn't quite fit the Witch Doctor character, but it's still an awesome creation.

The Invisible Handman Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 I'll give you props for combining old Bionicle pieces and Hero Factory pieces, and the belt looks nice. This model doesn't look very good though, the gaps on the shoulders are the most glaring issue but he has a lot of gaps that need filling in.
