Why do we even need custom masks to represent characters with unknown masks? It was not a problem with Miserix, his head is built up, as is Karzahni’s. Why couldn’t these MOCs’ be? It certainly can be done, I’ve seen Gilahu do it. I’m sure others can pull it off too, and that would much more fit with it being a LEGO MOC contest as you’re MOCing the mask using LEGO pieces, not using a 3rd-Party piece.
Some examples:
Name: Ornek
Kanohi: Akueldu, Great Mask of Thrown Vision

Backstory:
Created by Mata Nui from a pool of Antidermis somewhere on the Souther Islands, Ornek formed the Brotherhood of Makuta along with his fellow Makuta. He started out with creating Rahi like everyone, but never found this task quite to his liking.

Eventually the team split up as several of the Toa became Turaga, the ones choosing to stay Toa, Hailari among them, parting ways.
It was the Prosecution, the centuries long war of the Brotherhood of Makuta and their allies against the remains of the Barraki’s kingdoms, where Hailari could truly display her skills again.
