Eclipse - Vortixx War Preistess

Mechmaster · July 10, 2016, 2:19pm

me and my friends were sat watching web of shadows 2 days ago and during that we were discussing the best parts of the film such as characters, imo roodaka is a pretty good character and i was like hey lets make a vortix so here it is.

here is Eclipse the Vortix war preistess, the idea behind the aesthetic was that she would be a highly armoured yet highly regaled war veteran who would use her powers of shadow and her eclipse conduit to waste foes.

the ring on her back channels light energy from the area around her and uses it to fuel her own power over shadow.

the biggest feature of this moc is its use of tread links for her armour plating and conduit.

here is her without conduit and close ups on the lower and upper body

close up on head

back shot

without her heavy plate mail i dont think it works nearly as well

so anyway as always comments and criticism are wanted and i hope you like the moc.

I feel like there’s too much silver.

Mechmaster · July 10, 2016, 2:34pm

Fair enough but her primary colours are black and silver

Omega_Tahu · July 10, 2016, 2:47pm

Oh. I think that if you put more gold and metru blue it would help counteract all the silver

Only one thing to say: amazing.

I feel like if there were more gold accents this MOC would stand out a lot more than what it already does.

I also feel like the Nuva chest piece on the torso doesn’t work too well.

The arms are ok, could stand some more shaping.

Overall good job, a definite improvement over your past works.

More blue would definitely help. Overall it’s really good, keep up the great work m8!

This is amazing. 10/10

Looks nice, I especially love all the tread usage, and the weapon is quite cool. My biggest gripes are the Nuvaboobs and the Nuva Chestplate. They don’t flow very well together. Upper arms are a bit scrawny as well. Good work!

Mechmaster · July 10, 2016, 4:06pm

Nuvaboobs hahahah best term ever

There seems to be a fixation lately with sticking rings on the back of MOCs. I blame Alieraah.

TheRed1s · July 10, 2016, 4:27pm

looks pretty cool, but I feel it could use a bit more dark blue and gold. Also, the chest looks a bit too… bulgy. perhaps a different pair of nuva boobs would fit better here.

Ned_Flanders · July 10, 2016, 4:30pm

The ring is definitely my favorite part.

The MOC would benefit from more color distribution.

BlueCel · July 10, 2016, 4:31pm

I feel like the colors could be distributed a lot better as stated before, and also this is a nitpick that doesn’t really take away from the build but I really don’t like those double nuva breasts.

Dragon_Ben · July 10, 2016, 4:33pm

I don’t feel the chest design works to much. But other then that It’s a great MOC man.

Maethorneth · July 10, 2016, 5:18pm

Lol, it’s quite a common term with most of the people I chat with. Generally I think nuvaboobs detract from a MOC and kind of make female characters oversexualised. Just my two cents.

Mechmaster · July 10, 2016, 5:21pm

i saw the design on another moc ages ago and made my take on it

@blu @Joe @TheRed1s @Saxton @Ultimate_TChalla @Omega_Tahu the next thing i want to work on with this moc is the colour and nuva chest plate abs

Toa_Aveex · July 10, 2016, 5:39pm

Extremely Cool!

Hutere · July 10, 2016, 10:46pm

Needs more blue, and (brr) Nuvaboobs.
Those should be changed.
But the rest is .

I’m surprised no one else has said this:

It needs more black. I mean, it’s a Vortixx. Why is there blue on a Vortixx? Aside from me being nitpicky about Canon, though, the MoC seems solid. The use of those tread parts is very creative, and the thighs are well built. The shins and the arms look a little messy though. I would armor them up some more.
