New Moc (mecha)


This evening I've got a little MoC I'd like to show ya. :)

First of all, however, I would just like to note that I threw this together in about an hour and a half.
I didn't have much of a plan on what I wanted to build here, but my main reasons for making him were:
1) try out a new shoulder/arm build which I had thought of earlier that day
2) try out a new color scheme

In other words, this wasn't that serious of a MoC. ;)

I'm planning on getting a topic done up sometime soon, but until then you can comment on him here.

In other news, I bustaficated up all of my MoCs this afternoon (Including the G.B.G.) I left Certavus intact though. ;)
Why you ask? One reason:

BBCC #53

I need every spare part I've got. Seriously.

This.

Contest.

Will.

Rock.

(If they get a good winner)

The prizes will include (most likely) Prototypes
-and-
who knows what the BIONICLE Set designers will do with the winner!

:blink:

I've got an idea or two up my sleeve, but I'm gonna have to think on it some more...
In the mean time, I going to sort out all of my freshly available pieces. :P

Oh, thank goodness, I thought that mech was your 53 entry. I'm expecting a lot from you.

I think I actually like it, apart from a few things.

 

Eye ought to be a different color, or the pins in the chest should be red, they distract from the face and it looks odd.

 

Ankle joints need to not be bley, maybe red balljoints and a axle connector or two.

 

Upper legs design is horribly overused(note to self: slaughter people's pets for using it)

Legs and lower arms need to go imo. Keep the shape but try something more filled in a smaller at the knees for the legs. Just something with a normal joint for the arms.

 

What Cags said about the eye.

 

Feet don't fit. Maybe Raanu's feet would be better, not sure.

Har har.

NO. ;)

What eye color would you suggest?

I agree on the ankles, but I didn't have an alternative at the moment.
(and besides, I was kinda just throwing the legs together)


Upper legs design is horribly overused
Again, the legs were there just because he needed legs. :P
I was mainly experimenting on a new arm design (for myself at least)

Thanks for the critisism sir! ^_^

The whole reason I did the arms that way was to do something different. I didn't want "normal" :P

Seeing as I don't own him, I doubt that would work. ;)

Thanks! :D

 

And Cags, I don't believe I own a stud in those colors...

Oh, that's what you're using. I thought it was a balljoint socket. You have any in trans dk/light blue? Preferably dk blue, but it doesn't make much of a difference.

Yep, I do. I'll have to try it out...

Don't get your hopes up. :P

 

Also maybe it is just my subconscious banishment, but I'm not getting an ideas for this BBC. =\ I do like the theme/voting/stuff though. =]

Well, it looks cool. Though I can agree with some people in saying it needs a bit of work. (Though I do realize this was just thrown together to test some things. On that note, he looks cool enough and you did a good job.)

 

Yeah, head definitly needs and eye.

And the lower arms are weird. Oddly shaped. But I really like the upper arms, and the connection you were trying out. Definitely a keeper. (Cool use with the Throwbot feet, but I see grey.)

 

Thighs are the norm, not a problem though, but lower legs definitly needed work. I'm surprised you kept them like that, with the giant hole in the front and the bely just sticking out like that. But this technique has been used in the past so you might be able to perfect it yourself.

 

I agree on the feet. Toa Mata feet would be best here.

 

Love the sword. I still need to get me one of those...

 

The body is a little blocky, but has potential with some work. It's not bad though.

 

Overall I'm sure you had fun making it and I had fun looking at it.

I like this, so I'm just going to say the things I don't like very quickly:

 

1) Needs an eye

2) needs a little yellow in the torso

3) Upper arms are a little too long [though, it might work out depending what you do with the lower arms - I do like the new design]. Lower arms should be changed, I think.

4) Lower legs definitely need to go. Whatever caused that gap must have been pretty painful for him. And, the upper legs are fine, but over used.

5) Feet are ok, but Mata feet would probably work best. Raanu's preferably, if you get him, if not Tahu's should work. [though, add more yellow on the lower legs than]

LoL, yeah. But check out B6's most recent blog entry. He hints at it. ;)

 

And CF, thanks for the comments! ^_^

I'm glad you enjoyed looking at him.

As you said, he was just thrown together, and I wasn't that concerned with the legs if you know what I mean...

 

Edit: Arg. Velox sqeezed in there. :annoyed2:

Thanks for the comments! I agree about the legs. :)
