Makara, the Deranged

[Arsenic]

This is my first (good) MoC with a custom build.

Makara, the one that stalks through the night.

She used to be an ordinary toa of psionics, but had gone insane because she couldn’t handle her powers.
She has a pompous personality and a bit of a god complex. She holds a callous disregard to all things living.

Front shot:

Side shot:

Back shot:

She fights mostly with her prehensile tail, claws, and heel blades. She also carries a spiked chain.

Size comparison with Uniter Kopaka:

Some poses:

I can say that I’m rather proud of this moc. I tried to make her a lanky assassin type character with “feminine-enough” proportions, and I think I did pretty well.

Also, credit to @Lord_Tuma for the upper leg design. I tweaked it a bit, but it was inspired by this: https://board.ttvpodcast.com/t/miro-and-iti/20215

The thigh design isn’t all that appealing personally, it creates an odd and unnatural shape. Other than that, it’s alright.

[Lord_Tuma]

Ohey, good ol’ Miro’s leg design.

Looks pretty cool! If it’s supposed to look alien, you did a fine job with that. It’s kinda cool to know my MOC inspired someone.

Nice job.

[Arsenic]

I know the thigh design is incredibly thin, but I think it gives more character to her. A normal long ccbs bone would’ve have looked more bland, in my opinion.

@Lord_Tuma Thanks!

Miro’s leg design was neat, so I thought I’d use it that concept

the legs are a little bit skinny, I don’t think that looks good, but it looks pretty nice

[Hutere]

Cool!
Pun absolutely intended.

[Arsenic]

@Asriel Yeah, maybe they don’t look so good. But I like 'em.
Thanks!

[Gringat]

This looks a lot like one of Tamanis’ builds! Nice work here.

[Sonus]

Seems a bit exposed just above the hips. Overall this is interesting.

@Hutere_the_Toa_of_Air
Thanks!

@ToaSonus
I was originally going to put some silver bohrok eyes there, but it ruined the body shape, so I just left it as is. Thanks, though!

[Oniwah]

Most of the build is pretty good, but the thighs are way too skinny for the rest of the MOC.

[Mayple]

Those legs are just… why. Love the huge upper chest and small waist though, gives it a lot more of an unnatural appearance.

Fierce clapping ensues

[Arsenic]

I think I might revamp the legs, but I’m not very good at custom limbs. I might just use a regular long bone piece.

Not a fan of the thighs, but I like it. I like the color scheme, unusual traits, and story. Overall, this is good stuff.
