I just got Onua, Lewa and Gali. In my opinion, Onua is fantastic straight out of the box with no mods, but oh my… Lewa and Gali have absolutely terrible proportions. I just added the friction joints to both arm joints to make the arms longer and it seemed to do the trick.
I’m just going to give Lewa these pieces () on his legs, and replace the upper leg with a unit longer piece. His arms are just going to have the bones with two pin holes on them just like last year’s arms. I’ll have him in two days, so if you’re confused hopefully I can get some pictures
-Cover Terak’s, Melum’s, and Ikir’s exposed ball joints
-Put Bohrok eyes or vine pieces on Lewa’s exposed knees
-Cover any exposed holes in the bones with studs
-FIX KETAR’S TAIL. Like seriously, they just took any piece they could find and threw them on to it.
-Elongate the creature’s limbs
Pohatu Mods
Which one is better? (I’m having trouble deciding.)
Disclaimer: Even though he has 2 weapons, they can be connected, like Tahu’s weapons.
Version 1
To all those who said that you were going to “fix” Lewa’s knees, they’re actually not that bad IRL. They line up perfectly, and don’t really jut out. using an 04 y joint would give him crooked legs.
As you can see the balljoints on the creature (red) do not collide with the shoulder pads (blue) and as such you don’t have to tilt or move the shoulder pads around.
THAT IS ALMOST EXACTLY WHAT I DID FOR MY POHATU
Great minds think alike eh?
However, I would recommend replacing the burnt orange on his lower arm with one of the tan pieces that came with his thighs. It looks a tad better and make the tan work better with the overall color scheme.
@SwagMeister That is also genius. Will probably end up using that.
Great idea, I think I will have to try that, however I was trying to keep the burnt orange balanced with the rest of the colorscheme, as well as making the chestplate and the dark tan vorox armor look like scrap metal to give Pohatu the scavenger look.
Because of my utter distaste towards Kopaka 2016, when I buy him I will immediately fit him with these babies.
-completely revamped shield, it actually looks like one and it can shoot.
-changed upper arm build reminiscent of 2015 version, lower arms have white shell
-revamped his quite frankly dumb shins
-notice how there is no silver
So here’s a mock-up of Kopaka, I might have to change my mods a bit obviously because I don’t have him.
I’m not sure that I like that mod, while it does kinda balance out the gold, I feel like the vorox armor and the unity pieces on should still be there. IMO it resembles Kopaka master a little too much.
