What good did the old one have going for it? A Sidorak-y head and a pair of Technic hands. I went and built an entire new MOC around that.
You can do the same. Take the criticism and apply it as best you can.
If you have to tear it down and start on a new canvas, so be it. Save the good things you did and hold those up as your standard to build everything else to. Then keep raising that standard.
Make body parts as good as the original shins. Make a body that can accommodate the giant gun. Then try to make it even better overall.
ok Calvatron you make a point sure I make the arms more custom built but the upper legs need to stay basic so it doesn’t restrict movement to the lower legs
Ekorak the reason why I said that because of the pistons I used on the back of the lower legs for a more machine look if I tried to make a custom upper legs the pistons could restrict movement so the legs to a 90 degree bend which is something I don’t want to do
well Gearian exists in a universe where scientists have found ways to make enhanced abilities like the Super speed ability and decided to make a enhanced machine series known as the Gearian series and yes it’s not just a name of my selfmoc it’s a warrior series mk1 to mk10
Done.
Made a modification to the leg design that looks better and functions just as well.
Also added some armor to the empty space in the back.
It has a 90+ degree bend, front and back armor, and as an added bonus, doesn’t require the axles in the front to be trapped to the point where they’re difficult to remove.
@Ekorak, I think I need to pull the ultimate card; My topic. Yo, Gearian, read through some of this. My first MOC on the boards got SHREDDED, particularly by Ek, and I wanted to quit, but guess what? I didn’t, and I got better. Some tips that Ek gave me was to keep practicing, and considering that my self MOC was HUGE, to downscale it. I scrapped my original self MOC, and my new one is MUCH better. Practice makes perfect!
Yee. But you know what? Hindsight is 20/20, and my hindsight says that you and Yink (among others) helped me tremendously. So I believe the cycle will repeat.
