Lucem, the strong Toa protector, and my Self-MOC.

it’s really cool, but I just don’t see any light element in the moc
Are you sure he’s not a to of water? Jokes aside this is a really cool moc and very well built
It was either light or water. He’s not female, so light it had to be. Honestly I don’t really care about the element enough to make it prevalent in his design? I guess I just needed him to be a Toa of something. His element isn’t important, it’s just something that’s there.
tl;dr I built him, realized he needed an element, found out beings of light can be whatever they color they want, and made him a Toa of Light because why not.
While I really like it as a moc itself, I’m not getting light in any way. Maybe shadow, but definitely not light.
See comment above yours. His element isn’t important, it’s really just tacked on.
I like seeing how people can work around Metru blue; what accents they can add to compliment it and all. Lucem is no exception, the orange and gunmetal are integrated perfectly, neither overpowering the primary color. It creates a cool, futuristic effect that I really dig.
The design itself is also well executed, being consistently bulky and compact without coming off as clunky.
Overall, great job!
seems very Psionics-based to me. Looks fantastic nonetheless!
I love the color scheme and the build is phenomenal. I’m impressed at the detail and the articulation within the torso.
In light of what you said (pun definitely intended), I’m just going to imagine this character hide himself from the Brotherhood of Makuta by disguising himself as a Toa of Water.
I mean
He’s just a Toa of Light
Not in disguise or anything
Just an average Toa of Light
Yes, but that just what I’m going to imagine… I feel like I care WAY to much about this. I should probably be concerned about that.
Well, he’d have to be disguised, as in, have his colors changed like the Av-Matoran sets from 2008, since Toa of Light in their natural form are white and gold…
Beings of Light could canonically be whatever color they wanted. Makes sense too - if they have control over light, they’d be able to control which wavelengths they absorb and reflect, thus changing their colors. He’s not disguised, just making use of his element.
