This whole revamp actually came from the fact I had Waspix and Bitil both up on my shelf and I needed more space, so I squinted, hemmed, hawed and contemplated my pocket lint. Realized I that both of them shared a very close similarity in color scheme and said thus:
“why not combine both?”
So I did. Mind you, this is the current refined iteration and I know he’s particularly cluttered, but I wanted to fully express a bug-like mutation.
- The model stands 8 inches tall at relaxed height
- He’s a mix of Constraction and CCBS .
- His colorscheme is black, yellow-orange, silver with minor red accents.
He’s definitely one of the shortest of the makuta, even Vamprah is at least 8.5 inches. Unfortunately for Bitil, like Chirox, Bitil has a broken part, specifically his left foot/ankle. and does not hold his poses well…
Smh mY HEAD 2008 parts.
And yeah I know the Bitil mask is just off color from the keetorange, but I feel under normal lighting it’s just close enough that it’s not entirely offensive.
I might get another piece like what’s on his back for his chest. just for a more prominent texture and to break up the solid block of yellow more. But that’s for a later date.
I’m pretty satisfied with him, but feel free to tell me your thoughts!
Bonus!
Some pics of an older variant, complete with a height comparison and some light interactions with my selfmoc and Chirox.
Cheers!
