In my own little Bionicle timeline, this guy plays the role of King of the eastern Rahkshi. I’m really happy how this guy turned out and critiques are welcome
Man, I like how dynamic this all looks, from hood to toe. The layered torso is fantastic, and really seems like it has a gearbox jammed inside even though I don’t thiiiiink it does ( I’d love to be proven wrong here!). The only downside I can see is that the proportions read more like a vortixx than a traditional rahkshi, but that doesn’t detract from his quality as a MOC.
The idea of using the cobra head on a humanoid MOC is brilliant, and I’m surprised that I’ve never seen it done until now.
I feel as though the whole MOC has a very greebly feeling to it that often comes with mixing System and Constraction. It could very much use more streamlining.
Overall, I really like the concept and silhouette, but the details really make the MOC suffer. If I were to revamp the MOC, I’d say faithful to the concept, but perhaps use different and cleaner build designs.
Y’know, I’m probably gonna end up making the same MOC. I saw that part on Bricklink while ordering and thought, “Imma make a dude out of that sometime”, but it seems you’ve beat me to it with a sense of theme I don’t think I would have pulled off. You have an awesome idea of the skeletal-motif-torso, the feet compliment the figure of the creature well, the head itself is brilliantly done, and the whole colour pallet isn’t overwhelming to me but instead very telling of the work you put in to separate certain elements of the body. I congratulate you on this MOC even if some parts look greebly and messy to some, the ideas here are magnificent and this is one of my new favorite community MOCs.
