Evex_Wolfwing Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Have I ever posted here...?No?Wow.I won't lie, I don't MOC as much as I used to. My skills have stagnated, deteriorated after the simplified Hero Factory system. But I still managed to make this guy, who, if you vote for my entry to the most recent RPG contest (once I post said entry) you'll be seeing more of.Quoting the current draft... The nestariThe nestari hail from the farthest reaches of the Southern Islands. They were isolated from society, with only the occasional explorer making contact with them. Such people would rarely return, as they often would quickly be driven insane, then slaughtered. Only rumors existed of the nestari, and these tales never reached the continents or Metru Nui.The nestari are a hive minded race, operating through a psychic web created by each individual. The closer to the center of this synaptic a nestari is, the more powerful its psychic powers are. Non-nestari within this web are know to become easily stressed even when the nestari pay them no heed. On their own, a single nestari’s powers are weak, and it is easily frightened, being cut off from the synaptic web. However, the more nestari are present, the stronger and more varied their powers become. Mental Blasts, Mind Control, Telekinesis, Memory Altercation, all of these are powers the nestari can access as their numbers grow. In truly large numbers they have been know to be able to make men and women drop dead from sheer terror. Even without their psychic powers, the nestari still have terribly sharp and strong talons.Despite their lack of eyes the nestari appear to be able to see the world around them perfectly fine, though they seem uncomfortable with bright lights. The manner in which this is accomplished is unknown. They also are completely mute, incapable of making a single sound. These things make them appear emotionless to others, making them all the more alien and frightening.How the Brotherhood of Makuta convinced the nestari to join them is unknown. It is likely that they used their own powerful psychic abilities to subdue them, and assert themselves as leaders.The nestari are a non-playable race.

Warriors of blade and gun: masters of the Warframe armor. Those that survived the old war were left drifting among the ruins. Now they are needed once more. The Grineer, with their vast armies, are spreading throughout the solar system. A call echoes across the stars summoning the Tenno to an ancient place. They summon you. Allow the Lotus to guide you. She has rescued you from your cryostasis chamber and given you a chance to survive. The Grineer will find you; you must be prepared. The Lotus will teach you the ways of the Warframes and the secrets to unlocking their powers. Come Tenno, you must join the war. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obsessionist Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Pleasantly creepy. I like the Mantax head use, it looks great. I think it may be possible to create custom limbs that look a bit better, the parts you used are great. My only real suggestion is the change out the "thumbs". Having them protrude straight out two studs looks a bit awkward, as does the more blunt axel ending. A smaller piece may do better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elemental Ussal Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 This an excellent MOC. I can't find anything I don't like about it at first glance. The hands, like Lego Obsessionist said, the thumbs are a little strange, but overall, this is an excellent creation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
