Nah but seriously it’s a pretty cool moc. I was just underprepared for the extra terminator arms.
With a color scheme this straightforward (not a bad thing, mind you), it was hard to tell what exactly what was going on right away, but once I realized that he didn’t have an arm popping out of his chest, I was like,
it looks like something Aliraah would build but with the imagination of Shadowgear.
all in all, it is very impressive
if the arms were scaled down just enough to hide them on the body then that will be impressive not to mention the light brick in its chest to be like a furnace brilliant
but the thing that bugs me is that, why HF 2.0 hands why them? it spoils the contrast of the custom the head is fine but why the hands it’ll look better with posible hands
This is really awesome, but since Komao is all black its kinda hard to make out the details in some of the pictures which kinda sucks, since it has so much to offer. Maybe some strategic colour blocking with an additional colour would help. Other than that, its hella sweet.
I really like the overall build, it works well,
But even with the grey highlights the black is very overwhelming, I think the moc would benefit greatly from more trans orange, as as it is the detail is very muddled.
I mean, I like the build, there’s nothing wrong there. The weapons are pretty simplistic, which is a good thing. The arms look fantastic, so there’s nothing wrong there.
But the one thing that I just don’t understand is why it’s called “The Engineer”?? What type of engineer is he? What does he design? What does he build? Does he have any tools? Did he build his weapons? I just don’t get a feel for an engineer here at all! Again, just to be clear there is nothing wrong with the build. To me, the name doesn’t fit at all ):
I mean, I assumed he built his robotic arms and has to have the know-how of an engineer in order to maintain such a mechanism.
I actually think engineer fits, he seems like a being who would help design and maintain complex machines, and from the look of this moc, war machines at that. He reminds me of a techmarine from Warhammer 40k. I don’t think the name warrants a four point deduction. If the build is good, and the name doesn’t truly represent the moc, I’d give it a 9 at least, since I still think the moc is really good, even if the concept wasn’t properly represented.
I’m saying this because the builder hasn’t really given much in terms of the story behind the moc, which is understandable if the moc can convey a story by its build alone, and my interpretation is that this “engineer” is a person who maintains war machines, maybe his own, and has built his own robotic arms in order to carry out his tasks. I’m assuming the title was self-proclaimed and maybe the being itself is part-machine or even an android, justifying the need for knowledge of designing, building, and maintaining machinery.
In short, I don’t think misnaming a moc warrants such a low score, especially if the build is impressive. Be that as it may, a name can always be changed as well, if the creator is given a valid reason.
