Rakrondewl Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 (edited) I have come up with new villains for the Toa, the Corrupters. I am designing all of their masks first and later I am going to MOC their bodies with set like perimeters. Pictures Mask of CombustionMask of Gravity: Mask of Fracturing: Original Hand Sketches: I will post more pictures as soon as I can finish them. StoryThere were those of the inhabitants of Okoto that excepted Makuta as their new leader upon his donning of the Mask of Ultimate Power. Being immediately empowered by mask’s dark energy they were transformed into powerful beings, at the same time however, it’s slaves. When Ekimu knocked the mask from Makuta’s face, some of Makuta’s mind was divided among his servants who were present. They took Makuta’s fallen form and placed it in a tome deep in the island. Now because of the presence of Makuta in their minds one of them was able to forge masks of power. They used an unrecorded mask to raise the skull creatures. Commanding these creatures, they secretly orchestrated the search for the great masks, not wanting the other inhabitants to learn of their existence... They were almost able destroy the Mask of Creation but Kulta saw an opportunity to destroy the Toa and donned it instead. Kulta almost succeeded too, however Ekimu knocked it from his face and Kulta toppled backwards planting his head in the molten forge in which he was to destroy the mask. Learning the whereabouts of the Mask of Control they went to recover it, but were beaten to it by Umarak. They escaped, when the Toa attacked Umarak, into the shadows unseen by the heroes. “They” are the Corrupters of the Elements (the new “Brotherhood of Makuta” basically) and they wear the masks of corruption. Description _ Corrupter of FireWears the Mask of CombustionThis corrupter can become a fire being with his mask and forge masks of power.His weapon/s are: Two Katars (punching daggers) mounted on his lower arms and Makuta’s mask making hammer. _ Corrupter of StoneWears the Mask of DensityThis corrupter can increase the density of any part of his body.I may make him have four arms.His weapons are: Undecided _ Corrupter of IceWears the Mask of FracturingThis cold hearted corrupter fractures masks and drains their power.His weapon/s are: A ice mace and possibly a sword. _ Corrupter of EarthWears the Mask of GravityThis corrupter can control gravity. He can use his power on himself and/or others.His weapon/s are: Undecided _ Corrupter of WaterWears the Mask of EnvelopmentThis corrupter finds pleasure in enveloping his/her victims with water and then constricting the life out of them.His weapon/s are: A trident _ Corrupter of JungleWears the Mask of ImpersonationThis corrupter has the ability to change his physical form to that of another.His weapon/s are: Whip or Flail I may make one of the Corrupters legless to add a little more diversity in their designs (note this would leave more pieces for the upper body, making it appear almost titan sized). Any suggestions and/or criticism are welcome, weather it's about the masks or how you think the MOCs should look. Sorry if this is not the place to post this topic; I didn't know where to post it since it goes into several categories. Edit: By the way I prefer to work in 3d, so if anyone knows of a free 3d software I could use please let me know in the comments below (I have never used sculpting software and prefer to use dimensions, as in SolidWorks). This would not only look better, but it could make them 3d printable. Edited March 1, 2016 by Rakrondewl 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petewa Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Fracturing and gravity seem too similar to one another, and I think gravity should have at least some resemblance to the Garai. 1 Quote Mataru Nui, an Interactive Adventure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sorry but my Mask of Gravity will not bare any resemblance to the Garai as it isn't a Toa's nor the same mask. Gravity is the only word I know of the means gravity, so that is why it has the same subtitle as the Garai mask. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that you point it out I do see some similarities in the drawings. I assure you they would look different if they weren't 2d. I can only show so much of a 3d model in 2d (it is only 3d in my mind currently, that's how I think). I might not of made it clear that the purple between the eyes in my Mask of Gravity, is part of the eye slit. This forms a "T" shape slit which you can see the g2 head through.

Mr. Cod Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 Lovely designs, my favorite is the concept for the mask of shape-shifting. The shapes of some of the masks seem similar though. My suggestion would be to draw just the silhouettes of the masks and figure out how to make the profile of each one distinct. You have a solid thematic connection between all the masks, so they'll still feel like they go together even if you change the massing drastically.

My Mask of Shape-Shifting was inspired by concept art for Lewa's mask. I have renamed it the Mask of Impersonation to better relate to it's power. I tend to start with the eyes and draw out from there, but I will give what you said a shot. Thank you for the tips.If you have any ideas for what you think the Corrupter of Jungle should look like when I MOC his body, please let me know. I'm at a lose as to what he should look like and what weapons to give him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aho Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Cool masks you got here!In fact, if you ever wanted to get them 3D printed, me or my friend Kaihanga could help. We've partnered up to do 3D models on the side, so let either of us know if you want a 3D design of any of these masks! However, I do agree with what was said above about the silhouettes. That's not a bad idea. Additionally, try to think like a LEGO designer, and limit yourself to designing just a few new pieces, and incorporating recolors and old pieces in the rest of the model. Do you want these to have functions as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you want these to have functions as well?Thank you for offering to print them; I'll probably take you up on it, as I don't have a 3D printer. I have found some software but need to replace the fan in my computer before I can download it. So hopefully I can make the masks 3D in the near future. What format does the 3D model have to be for you or your friend to print them? I use LDD on a semi regular basis, but the lack of the new pieces has made it harder to create up-to-date models. I try some concepts but the digital ccbs system in the LDD makes it very difficult and time consuming. Thanks again. Edit: Oh, and yes I am going to try to give them functions. If you have any ideas for what you think the Corrupter of Jungle should look like when I MOC his body, please let me know. I'm at a loss as to what he should look like and what weapons to give him. My MOCing ability is middling at best, but maybe a whip or some sort of flail for the weapon? I really like both the weapon suggestions and will probably use one of them for him. You don't have to be a MOCing expert to give suggestions. These are going to be "set-like" MOCs, so they are going to look like they could be actual sets (I always build this way now). Just think about what you think would be really cool to see in a set. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Aho Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Stl would be fine. Honestly, come to think of it, I could 3D print it, but then again Shapeways may actually be cheaper. However, If you want any 3D models made, I could do it for free, either the mask or "new" pieces. To clarify, I mean a 3D model file.

To clarify, I mean a 3D model file. So your saying you could make the 3D models of the masks and didn't mean print them, right? So if I am getting this right and you mean the 3D models, what would you need to make the 3D models of the masks? More views? I had plans to make them myself in the future, but because I don't have a lot of time right now and I have to replace the fan in my computer before I can download the software; It would be great if you and/or your friend could make them.I think I am going to redesign the Mask of Combustion though, so you need not make that one. Shapeways? Never heard of it, I will have to check it out. Thank you and sorry for the misunderstanding. Please do not feel obligated in any way if something comes up, I understand. Edit: Currently the only "new" pieces are the masks but I may want to design chest-plate or armor add on in the future.

Aho Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Yep! I will make the models for free, for you to 3D print at your leisure. I would need a back view for each, or if that doesn't work just tell me what sort of mouth/head connector you plan to utilize. Either a pin connection or the new connection is possible.

Rakrondewl Posted February 29, 2016 Author Share Posted February 29, 2016 Two quick questions.Does anyone know if the nuva symbols on the Toa refer to them or their element? Umurak has a nuva symbol as well, do the beasts?I was just wondering if I should make elemental symbols for each corrupter or if I could just use the "Toa" ones.

Junior Shark Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Cool drawings! The "crowned" aspect of them (like the Mask of Creation) and the runes really make them seem like some ancient threat, risen again to battle the Toa.
