Anchor-Arms Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 This is my first contest and I'm super nervous and excited. I know the color scheme is different but I felt it was ok given that this is a reboot. I just made a gallery since I'm new to this sites format. The first picture is the entry. Any concern or constructive criticism is welcome. Thank you! http://imgur.com/a/72o8O 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Hip Historian Iaredios Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 (edited) With how bulky you made him, his head appears to be too small. and what I think are supposed to be shoulder pads look more like wings. I have yet to get one of the new sets so I don't know how different things are, so I will give you the benefit of the doubt. Other then that, this is a great re-imagining of the gallant Axxon (I do miss his red however.... Oh well). Oh yes, and welcome to BZPower!

Vrokorta Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 It's a little bulky, but I like the new color for axonn, it suits him.

VBBN Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 I like that you kept a more complicated build yet still used some large shells to give him the smoother aesthetic of the G2 sets. Color scheme aside, the main criticism I would have here is the hands/fingers, they just seem sort of static and don't really fit in with the style of the rest of the character. I think in this case, even his original hands might look better here (and due to his increased size they wouldn't look as oversized as they did on the original Axonn) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the the bulkiness I somewhat attribute that some the exaggeration seen in the newer sets such as Onua. And most of my red was used on similar revamp of Brutaka.

Just never got around to it. BTW fantastic Vezon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
