Very nice work! Good colorscheme, and nice weapon design.
I feel like the core of the build was based off of Maxilos tho.
Also, he doesn’t need to look down that much; the mask has angled eye sockets (like built-in eyebrows); having his head tilted at a 90 degree angle forward seems too far, like he’s looking inside his chest armor.
Thank you! Well i looked at my Maxilos and was like…he has a very Teridax color scheme, oh and he has waist articulation and oh! He is colored in similar areas to the original Teridax, also I knew the only parts that could make my build look the way it does now was to use parts that are also used on Maxilos, so I took out my parts and started building the Maxilos base core, then I was thinking it would be too much like maxilos, so I tried quite a few things and different colors but it made more sense to leave the red like it is on Maxilos to Ballance out the gunmetal,black and greys, I was going to use black in the underarms but it would leave it with too much grey and black so I put it back as red and I was going to use black toa Mata feet for his feet parts and black versions of the grey forearms and shins but it again was not enough grey to be Teridax in color, Maxilos really has good placement and balance of color so the color and other things were inspired from Maxilos but it was at least not made with a Maxilos lol mine is still standing, I also used the waist articulation and the pistons idea because it adds alot of extra articulation that aren’t on alot of mocs. for some reason I guess I just like the top of his mask or I just like his head in his chest lol…also from what I have observed it seems almost every moc is using a significant amount of one characters design or another, either as a base or armor or key elements and that is why I went the route I did, I didn’t think it would break it’s chances as a good build.
It is certainly an impressive build, but (and I cannot believe I’m saying this) he has to many greebles. The clashing textures hurt my eyes. I really like his weapons, though.
I am currently working on a version two, which will veer away from the downsides of the current Teridax. Also, the reason other than visually having a similar color scheme, I used the Maxilos core because I believe that since there is no origin of the Maxilos robot other than they were built on Artahka to be used as guards for the pit and Daxia, that they were designed after Teridax to instill fear in prisoners and would be intruders, because even before the makuta hostile take over, makuta were the enforcers of the universe, so building them to look like makuta makes sense. so i wanted my Teridax build to reflect that idea I had.
That makes perfect sense, I think that is a good addition to the Maxilos robot origin and should be official! Also which works perfect with your Teridax design!
Teri-daddy
Teri daddy? Lol that is quite funny.
I really like the build. Everything feels so well fitted together
The new version is even better!!! Outstanding work! This is definitely my favorite Teridax! I love how you changed around the chest, abdomen, hands, upper arms, back, and lower legs! Yeah I completely compared the old and new one side by side and noticed the difference right away and love the new intricate abdomen/chest area and totally makes sense to have tubes in every limb to show where the antidermis would travel through, that is a nice touch. Anyway great job!!!
What can I say, I’m impressed.
I love the new photo you added! It makes him look so evil!
Awesome job man!
this moc is Still Amazing.
You’re very welcome! And thank you for your service to America!
Excellent. I personally prefer the kanohi oriented the way it is on the original set, but on the other hand, this way does look more like a real mask.
Love the hammer
I like it more
Cool! You’re very welcome!
Looks great!
Yeah I like it more too. It looks more… evil
