Kanakalackin Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Meet Xirax, the Toa of Ice for Toa team Alpha. While he prefers to work alone, he will help Sandstorm, Rivera, Nukovac, Metalicus, and any other Toa when it is necessary.^Click for LARGER picture!^ This is one of my more intuitive torso builds. It was hard to put together, but fun at the same time. As always, I am open to any C&C! NOTE: After I am done with part one of my epic, I will make a short story for him!

Chro Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Hmm. I thought you said this would be more complex than the others, but I must've been thinking of something else.Interesting torso, the plates sticking down at the sides look a little odd. It'd be neat if you figured out a way to angle those in, I think.I also suggest either changing the Inika torso piece to grey, or adding more dark blue to the rest of the MOC.

BrickPharaoh Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Nice armoring ideas, but still a bit too simplistic... Also could use some color variation on the legs. Maybe a touch of silver or Metru blue? Quote "Welcome to Valhalla, Warrior."

Kanakalackin Posted March 30, 2013 Author Share Posted March 30, 2013 @Chro: the torso is really complex in comparison to my other Toa Alpha. And remember, Sandstorm is the main character, so he has to sick out a little more. @Darksiderz: how's my PBZP coming along?

BrickPharaoh Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Really well but might not be able to resume working on it until the week's end...I have a lot of work :/ Quote "Welcome to Valhalla, Warrior."

Hitoshura Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 The torso has an unique build, like how you added all those spikes and stuff. I don't have much to say about this except that IMO it looks quite simple, to be honest. Quote profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is, if this is complex compared to the other ones, then... :/And yes, Pirai is the main character of my story, but he's the same level of complexity as the others. But I guess I see what you mean... Quote save not only their lives but their spirits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanakalackin Posted April 3, 2013 Author Share Posted April 3, 2013 To me, he looked kind of like a ninja or something. And I love the shape of the noble Akaku.

archivist_66 Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Good work, nice colours. But these black parts on the arms is better to remove... Quote "You are a Toa -- prove yourself worthy of the name!" Onua, "Into the Nest" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumiki Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 I think you've got a few good ideas here, but there are a couple of modifications I'd make ...1. The armor on the side of the torso would work great there on a larger MOC. On this one they jut out a bit.2. The holes beween the shoulder armor and the upper part of the Metru foot on the torso could probably be filled in. The Inika torso (which it looks like you used? I can't quite tell) has enough connection points to make that possible.3. Those black bits on the lower legs and lower arms are a tad distracting; I think you could do without them.4. The silver and blue bits seem underused. Try working with a white-on-Metru blue color scheme, as that would make a more interesting dynamic than the white-on-gray you use elsewhere.

I actually got the sword inspiration from your Likus MoCs. Quote I have an Instagram page where you can see these pictures and more like them! Just click HERE!

Rooster Nui Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 A bit of a simple build, not too simple though, and i do like the silver and white color scheme a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanakalackin Posted April 18, 2013 Author Share Posted April 18, 2013 If you like this one, you should look at my other Toa Alpha. Quote I have an Instagram page where you can see these pictures and more like them! Just click HERE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
