The Invisible Handman Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 White has never really been a Makuta colour, but for the general colourscheme and theme of this set it's good. The detailing and shape of this build are cool and I like the theme split majority corruption theme. Well done.

Ghidora131 Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Wow... I, uh... No offense, and this is very well-built - but it's too much of an eyesore. I can't look at the pictures properly because it just hurts. Not so much the body as the face, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torran Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 While I do think there's a lot going on in the build, it draws out the features and gives Makuta a more dynamic, exposed-mechanism feel. You've avoided shells and from what I can tell, you've chosen to forgo most G2 pieces altogether, which I'd say is an achievement in itself. His expression does well to relay his corrupted nature. Custom heads are not the easiest but I can see his defined eyes and features. Your concept offers foundation for his patchwork colour scheme, though I wonder if it would look more cohesive with all his light on one side, while the darkness ebbs in from the other (I do think a hint of red in his torso would help harmonize his being - yet the torso build astounds me, love the central core that branches out combined with the minifig abdominal portion!). Or perhaps you were purposefully juxtaposes to the fullest by melding on both sides of his person? Quote flickr - Brickshelf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am agree about adding red in body, I think, if I did it in accurate way, it could potentially look better than now. About colour distribution: I chose "crossed symmetry", because it's looks more balanced, than "side symmetry", I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghidora131 Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 (edited) What do you mean about "eyesore"?The colours, for some reason, make the face absolutely unbearable to look at. If you could make a version with perhaps a little more gold/white, that would be easier to see. EDIT: Ohh, you little sneak... I see what you were going for there. (maybe not intentionally, lol) Edited September 14, 2016 by Ghidora131 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
