Mate.397 Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 http://orig07.deviantart.net/d28f/f/2017/114/f/d/matoro_the_spirit_touched_by_mate397-db6zwch.jpg *Matoro came from a far away island, according to him his village used to part take in the annual Hammer Flush tournaments back in the day, and after hearing the defeat of Makuta and his minions he was sent. His appearance at first sight caused unrest among people of Okoto. His skeletal arm and green glow unwantingly reminded us of Kulta and his fellow skeletal friends. Though he assured us he has never heard of Kulta, his story to explain the arm didn't make us feel any better. Matoro is something that on his island call a 'spirit touched' able to see both the world of the living and the dead. He can talk to those who has long passed away, even able to step out of his body to traverse the spirit realm but such ability comes at a price. The more he uses it the more his body decays and in the end forever will he be part of the world of the dead.*Well, this one has been on hiatus for far too long, not to mention it was supposed to have ribs on the decaying side, but that didn't work out in the end, same with the chest, it was supposed to be with the hockey chest piece but that just didn't work out with the CCBS torso shell. All in all I'm very satisfied with the out come, the torso's build got pretty good in my opinion, so many small parts merged into one big component. This MOC is mostly made out of left overs from the Makuta combiner and the parts of the BZP raffle Jango Fett I won way back (along with another Hero Pack) among other things.Detail shots:http://mate397.deviantart.com/art/Matoro-Back-676880669http://mate397.deviantart.com/art/Matoro-Hammer-676881458http://mate397.deviantart.com/art/Matoro-Size-676887654http://mate397.deviantart.com/art/Matoro-Torso-676888055http://mate397.deviantart.com/art/Matoro-Torso-2-676888321http://mate397.deviantart.com/art/Matoro-Torso-3-676888638http://mate397.deviantart.com/art/Matoro-Torso-parts-676888970 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Invisible Handman Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 EH I'm not fond of this one. The colour-scheme seems a bit dull and the neck looks a bit too long. I do like the stud shooter weapon though. That's pretty neat.

The Invisible Handman Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 G2 silver =/= G1 pearl silver. Said G2 silver sections could also stand to be divided a bit better, the segment silver on the torso feels a bit too big.

ToaGhost Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 I can appreciate the colors and the theme, but i'm not sure the large use of ccbs was the best idea here. While it fits well,a more technic or even (dare i say), a more brick based build for the decaying side. For a build with leftovers this is really well done!

What sort of pieces would you consider to fit that bill? Just curious, not planning on changing anything, I'm simply a bit puzzled at the idea.
