Chro Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 So, here's another MOC. This one is Raho, a Matoran vigilante, who protects his village when Toa are not around to do so. Simple enough concept, I just wanted to make an armed-and-dangerous Matoran. ^ click to go to gallery ^Brickshelf Gallery:> > >MOCpage:> > > Quote save not only their lives but their spirits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrozenFlash Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 That ammo belt on the torso is nicely designed and I like how the mask fits with the sniper appearance. The colors are also pretty cool. My only complaint is that the feet are barely visible but other than that, awesome job on this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chro Posted September 14, 2012 Author Share Posted September 14, 2012 Uh... for some reason, the other two or so replies in this thread just disappeared. Not sure about that.That ammo belt on the torso is nicely designed and I like how the mask fits with the sniper appearance. The colors are also pretty cool. My only complaint is that the feet are barely visible but other than that, awesome job on this! Thanks, glad you like it. I've tried and failed to use the tread piece as a bandolier in the past, but I think this time it works a bit better. I have since created a better version of this Matoran frame with better feet and hands. Quote save not only their lives but their spirits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fsnorglepuff Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 Excellent design, though I fear the torso and arms are too big for a matoran MOC. The legs are wonderful, though, so try to scale down the rest to match the legs. He also needs wider and longer feet - maybe attach triangular technic pieces to the front? The weapons are beautiful, and the mask works perfectly. Hands would work if the upper arm were shorter, too. Nice work!

Yes, I agree that the torso proportions of this version are a little off, as well as the lack of distinct hands and feet. I've made another version of this Matoran frame which I will upload soon; it actually includes one or two of the changes you suggested.

Onewa7 Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Ah, I remember this one. I even voted for it in the 4th BCBS challenge. I like it very much, especially that gun. It's a good concept and a well-made Matoran, just needs to be a little filled in around the waist, but that's just me. Can't wait to see the improved hand and feet designs!

flameman Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 I don't really have much to say here as this is a simple MOC, it's good though, the design is nice and well detailed, although i don't think that tire around the body isn't a good idea, you don't have any chains ?and yeah agreed with onewa7 about the waists, and this guy really need some hands and legs, other than that the MOC is great, especially the weapon, i like the fact that you use noble mahiki, the mask shape fits really well with the matoran Quote Brickshelf | Flickr | MOCpages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That aside, yes I do have chains, but I personally don't really like using chains to bulk up a thin torso. My initial reason for the thin waist was that I wanted the gunbelt (really just a rubber band with two guns, haha) to fit, without looking too large.Like I've said, the new version has actually feet and hands, LOL.
