The Brotherhood of Makuta - What About a Community MOC Project?

Honestly I liked the torso (and mask) of the original a lot better, even if it was mostly only a '08 Makuta one. Limbs definitely don’t look as weirdly cluttered, though. How did you put that Jayko mask on there?

At this point it’s fully up to you. I have my Xoth MOC now :wink:

It turns out it fit perfectly over a Brain Attack visor. Not even stressing the piece any, nor is it too loose (it’s about as tight as a Mata mask connection). I was actually kinda surprised how perfectly it worked.

Then I’ll go with this one, since I like it much more than the original. Topic will be up in a bit.

I would like to make a moc, but I don’t know if I still can and what should I do.

Currently there aren’t any spots left - and there probably also won’t be in the near future unless someone decides to quit.

Have you read the entirety of the first post? That should answer most things. Any additional questions I’ll be happy to answer.

Just my luck…

I hate to say this, but because of my current state of affairs and free time, I will likely not finish Durantaz any time soon, and I’m still struggling with his lore. I cannot in good conscience keep that spot when others may be able to contribute.

I am satisfied with Hormahk, and hope this project continues to grow and do well, but cannot contribute more for the foreseeable future.

I can’t hear you. :stuck_out_tongue:

Ok, on the list you go for a non-canon male Makuta.

Oh, yeah!

I will look for everything this weekend.

@Gilahu There is a small problem: I have only CCBS pieces. Is OK if I make it out of CCBS, but a good one?

People keep asking me that for some reason. Maybe I should make this part of the rules more obvious…

Yes, you can use CCBS. :wink:

My most resent Makuta is pretty-much complete at this point (excepting the feet, which I’m still experimenting with), but might not be posted for a while, as I’ll finish him with the parts of the newest buildable Darth Vader once he goes on clearance (I just can’t justify paying 40 bucks for him).

Also, on the off-chance that you haven’t begun drawing Wanitama yet, could you wait a bit? I’m considering giving him a total overhaul, making him more Technic based and adding some blue to the color scheme.

Wouldn’t it be quicker and cheaper to simply get the parts from bricklink?

I already have. Still I appreciate updated versions - it will still have an influence on my revamp of him (which might happen in the reasonable future - that is, whenever I feel like building something with Mata red without a custom head) Current plan is Xoth, Erdorn, probably Tethis, hopefully Isthra. After that I don’t know.

I don’t just plan on getting him for the parts I have specific plans for, like those for this guy- I want other parts that give me some freedom to experiment (since I actually haven’t bought a CCBS set since 2015). Also, I have a $20 Walmart gift card, not a $20 Bricklink gift card.

For anyone who wants something fun to read as well as an example of how Mutran might have been like had Tren Krom been a little less… sensitive - I forced the Mutran Chronicles through Google Translate. It’s been some time since I laughed that hard for that long.

How’s this for Wanitama’s revamp?

The legs are just there to hold the body up for the photo, and are by no means final. This version will have no yellow.

If anyone’s got any ideas for armoring the waist area, I’m all ears.

  • Is that sand blue or light blue?
  • Interesting use of the Metru head, although I can imagine that in terms getting some armor below it is difficult… If you want the torso to be angled like that a Hordika neck might maybe be an alternative
  • Shoulders stick out a little much presently. Also from personal experience I’d recommend using balljoints as shoulders - works way better for articulation. If you keep the shoulders this wide I’d suggest adding pauldrons as well as something beneath them to make them flow better with the body.
  • Upper torso is rather gappy from the side and the back armor doesn’t seem to flow that well from that paw piece to the robo rider head.

That’s all I can currently think of.

Overall looks quite nice from the front so far, but not so much from other angles.

Your suggestions are noted. That color is light blue. I’m trying to find a way to Incorporated Brain Attack Furno’s head on the back to smooth it out, and I also am trying to use Sir Santis’s visor piece (as it has the perfect color pallet) or the 2015 mask of fire to armor the crotch area, but I can’t find good connections for any of them, especially the last two. Suggestions in that regard would be extremely appreciated.

More updates on Wanitama: I armored up his waste area, though I’m still not quite satisfied with it. I do like the smoother back I’ve made, though. I’ve also begun custom arms.




Feedback is always appreciated.
