I do not like that style of MOCs…and I do not like that joke…
The point is, Rando was making fun of that style of MOCs with that comment. That’s what makes it funny.
Okay! now I get it!..lol…well…ON TOPIC!
I also tend to repeat creteqes in my head so I can work on that…
Well, the only thing I attempt on MoCs are experimental. Every time I MoC, I experiment with trying to create and perfect techniques. That’s my MoCing process for you.
Almost perfect.
Put parts together until I think I could get internet points from it.
I just throw together parts until i get something that looks good.
Step 1) Don’t MOC.
Boo hiss.
Pulls out shotgun Tell that to MY FACE!

@Pot8o that MOC…needs to die…
fires
@Mistuh_Grammaticul you…are now my friend…
Cries.
wait…I have a idea…
bombs your house
ITS STILL ALIVE!!!
No one can kill Pot8o. That is a fact.
Well, I actually have a very weird way of making MoCs.
- I draw up a concept piece for the character I have in my head.
- After that’s all done, I grab a random piece and work my way around it, finding ways to create a good custom torso, since I always start out with that part of the body.
- Repeat for the limbs, and the head if necessary.
- See that my MoC looks like trash and revamp it over and over and over and over…
- Actually become satisfied with the final product, then most likely end up destroying it for parts. Unless its my self-MoC, then it’s safe.
- Try to recreate technique found online
- Build off of that
- Realize technique from 1 doesn’t fit with existing moc and replace it.
- Repeat 3 with other parts of moc until it looks decent.
- Figure out a rough design in my head-brain.
- Think of some snazzy colo(u)rs I can use for said rough design.
- Discover I don’t have the right pieces for original design.
- Work around piece limitations.
- Create funky name for MOC.
- Reali(s)(z)e I suck at MOCing.
- Cry.
Hope this helps other MOCists!
When I want to build a MOC I tend to gather parts that I want to add, and then find a way to attach them until I’m happy with it. For example, I knew that I wanted the Stronius mask on Serethus’ back, and then I figured out how to add it.
I spend hours trying to figure out a combination of parts that won’t work…and then I just figure out something at the last minute.
I also use official sets as references sometimes.
I first create either a inika or custom frame. Then i add on parts- Example- My MOC needed nuva armor so i made a frame, then concealed it within with the armor.
