Hockey stick-wielding punk catgirl of doom
My aim here was to make a stereotypically “hot” moc but also make her actually cool. I’d say it was a resounding success!

i love it
the cat look looks really good, and i love the head build, altho i do think slightly fewer colors could look a little better and more streamline
That’s a lot of brown exo force hands
The heavily stickered look is unique and looks cool
Huh. That’s certainly an ambition.
I’m going to interpret “stereotypically hot” as “visually feminine”, and “cool” as “early 2000’s sticker aesthetic”, with a dash of posing.
Your MOCs are already quite slender, which benefits the feminine build well. The most striking feminine aspects are the thighs/butt. I think the thighs are a solid design, but the transition out of system into the smooth shells kill it for me. I’d try to build the front of her hourglass figure further out of system, maybe with a shell on top of it if necessary.
I think the chest design is near perfect for this MOC, which is not something I often say about Nuva shoulders in that area. It doesn’t actually contribute that much to it being “stereotypically hot”, but for an athlete I’d expect to see a smaller bust anyway. It almost gives the appearance of a sport bra or crop top which I would imagine this character wearing easily.
As for the rest of the clothes - there’s too much going on here for me I think the sticker pants look is unique and wouldn’t want that to go, but the odd color placement kills the aesthetic for me. I’d suggest axing silver and dark red, probably the yellow too. I’m not sure how involved you were in color layering, but I’d also suggest differentiating the black color of the arms and the legs - I want to see the black on her legs as leggings and on the arms as bare skin.
I like the use of stickers here, looks like patches sewn/ironed onto her pants
cool moc
I’ll be the first to say it
That’s a weird Rukah moc.
The Hockey stick is cool, but I have to echo hewkflint, the colors are so chaotic.
so you telling me… being hot is not cool?
all joke aside really do like this moc and the rule of cool factor is has!
also loved to know how you build those thights… like now
Love the french braids, love the crop top like Hawk said, amd I can see how the varied color pallet can distract but I also get the vibe that this girl just bleeds ice and isn’t gonna let mismatched pads slow her down. It’s testimony to her dedication to the game
I see it, I see it so much, she has intense pit girl vibes. Really nailed her design Mono
Thank you for the honesty, when I saw the rear shot, I was like “there’s no way this is just aesthetic.”
Crit: I think some sort of pumped-up kicks/boots would be better for a punk character…in fact if she’s got a hockey stick maybe some roller derby-esq boots? Maybe some slightly cleaner colour blocking and layering too (I’m echoing Rhyla I suppose)
Yeah, this too ^
Crocs: Personally, love the sticker spam, definitely sells the “punk” aspect. The braided hair definitely is punk too. Leg design is pretty clean, the Mahri shin guards work well.
I love this! the whole concept is great and the execution is even better.
I especially love the hands, I don’t know what it is about them but they just work
the torso is also extremely well built, and I enjoy the sticker spam
nice work!
I’ve reworked her colours a bit, all the green and silver is completely gone now.
I’ve also reworked her lower legs to be slightly shorter and more streamlined!
@Kingboss I’d love to show you how to make them but they can’t be disassembled now because of all the stickers covering them… I’ll see if I can make an example thigh out of spare parts.
ah neat, she looks much more clean now - i like it!
This is amazing! She has such an incredibly strong personality displayed through her design alone. The many stickers and messy colors really give her that punk feeling. She looks like she’s made of scrapped together road signs and the year 2,000. She’s a lawbreaker and a rebel. She uses that stick to break the shins of cops just as much as she uses it to play street hockey. She taught herself how to play drums. She goes everywhere on a sticker covered custom skateboard. She never pays her taxes. She loves vocaloid music. She’s the fan favorite secondary character of an early 2000’s anime about a young boy coming into his teens. She’s a local legend. She will steel your hoodie and wear it in front of you and there’s nothing you can do about it. I absolutely love her.
Both versions are pretty nice. The newer one is a bit cleaner with the more limited, but the messy colours were pretty cool too.
I might give her back the mismatched kneepads. I’ll see if I can find a way to fit them onto the new leg design
