[Ghid]

Alright, here’s my entry!

Tirodax

Tirodax was once two beings: a toa of iron named Tirone, and a Makuta named Dekidax. When the makuta realized that toa of iron would pose one of the greatest threats to their new armor, they made a strike team to eliminate the all, and this team was lead by Dekidax. Dekidax was known for his sadistic and morbid personality through the matoran universe and was once put as the makuta of the island of karzahni, though him and karzahni got along a little too well for Teridaxe’s liking. Once he made the strike team, he put Dekidax in charge of it for three main reasons: 1) he was an incredible and savage fighter, and could easily defeat most other makuta in a fight, 2) because teridax was afraid that if Dekidax and karzahni continued to be in close contact that they would try and overthrow him…

My entry:

Tahkon- the Fallen Agent

Here is my entry into Cordax’s Cool Contest, for your consideration: [Tahkon] [Tahkon Pose 1] [Tahkon Pose 2] Tahkon was originally a member of the Hand of Artakha and then went on to join the Order of Mata Nui. He was one of the few members who knew the location of the island of Artakha and as a result was almost killed by Tobduk. Tobduk attacked him completely by surprise and while Tahkon was able to defend himself enough to get away alive, he did not want to risk being found again and immediately went into hiding. Tahkon learned the reason for the assault from Tobduk himself while they fought, who revealed it to Tahkon seeing as how Tobduk didn’t think he would be alive to tell anyone. Tobduk’s slaughter of every person who knew the location of Artakha’s island and the Order’s perc…

February 5th

Crab Nuggets I thought it was the 8th
Gotta switch into first gear

Had a story I really wanted to build a Moc to go with but couldn’t get the characters key details right so I switched tact and am on a roll but now ironically have a Moc with no story (yet)

Also question, waht is the rules on backgrounds and editing a Moc into a context?

Backstory

Prologue - Some beings commit evil acts fully aware of the villainy they’re creating. Others deny their own vile nature, aiming to justify the actions they take with the results they dreamed up in every victim’s nightmare. Those are the beings I find myself surrounded by now. Beings… No, creatures who have lost any values which could consider them civil. They now only exist to drag others to their level; a place I must admit I am now. A short time ago, I had a life many would envy. Peace, friendship, respect, those were the only things that mattered to me. But now I have been reduced, forgetting what I stood for, only holding my own survival dear to me. It would be cowardice to place sole blame of my failures onto my captors, but I cannot deny the horrors of my circumstances, an…

This will be good exercise for me.

@Axelford

waht is the rules on backgrounds and editing a Moc into a context?

so I’m not completely sure what you mean by this, but if you have a preexisting story, you can expand on that with the story written for this contest.

[Axelford]

Sorry I’ll rephrase my question clearer: Can I photoshop my Moc into an environment is what I mean. And how much editing can be done, one of my ideas involved foreground obscuring the feet area.

[Winger]

I mean, not running the contest here, but any artistic license you want to do for the sake of immersion would be fine, I think, as long as you also include pictures of the whole MOC.

[Cordax]

What Winger said is good, thats exactly the answer.

[Winger]

@Cordax

What Winger said is good
