The 1st Shadow Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 I've had a bunch of MOCs just sitting around for months now, so I'll be posting them on here over the next few days, depending on how quickly I can complete my stop-motion film for LEGO's contest. Anyway, here's the first MOC. He's an unnamed Le-Matoran engineer who once got in a terrible accident that ruined the lower half of his body. Seeing this as an opportunity to experiment, he had a new lower torso constructed for him, but in place of legs, a single wheel mechanism that would allow for quick travel over semi-flat ground.

Hitoshura Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 That looks pretty nice, a small and simple build. That's pretty creative. One thing: I suggest adding more lime pieces for the color scheme to look nicer. Quote profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makuta of Time Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 He reminds me of a Moc I made called Fred. (I didn't have a cool name for him.) He was basically a robot with one wheel and two arms. I'll tell you this, the teal is nice. But I don't think the green Miru would work, but I see where you are going with it. A teal Miru would work better.

Sumiki Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 The main thing that sticks out to me when I look at this MOC is that it feels ... unfinished. I really think you could have fleshed it out a bit more. I'm getting a sort of tablescrap vibe from it as it currently is. Teal is a great color, but the lime along with it is too close to the teal to really work as a contrasting color. Considering how little lime is actually on the body, perhaps you might consider changing it to another color? Quote avatar by Lady Kopaka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The 1st Shadow Posted March 31, 2013 Author Share Posted March 31, 2013 Thanks for the feedback, guys. The main thing that sticks out to me when I look at this MOC is that it feels ... unfinished. I really think you could have fleshed it out a bit more. I'm getting a sort of tablescrap vibe from it as it currently is. Teal is a great color, but the lime along with it is too close to the teal to really work as a contrasting color. Considering how little lime is actually on the body, perhaps you might consider changing it to another color?He actually is kinda unfinished. I had an idea in mind while building him, but I couldn't find a good way to implement it. I had wanted to use all teal, but parts I needed weren't available in that color. I may try finding a different color, though. That might help a lot, actually. I'm open to suggestions.

Kanakalackin Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 A nice, small, simple build. I like how you incorporated the teal with the lime green. But, I would try to add more teal. Just to enforce the TEAL wheelie more. Quote I have an Instagram page where you can see these pictures and more like them! Just click HERE!
