Psithur, Toa of Shadows V2.5 [SELF-MOC]

Oiyo!

So, for V2 of Psithur, I got some…negative opinions…about his simplicity, design choices, etc., so I decided to go back and fix them. In this edition of Psithur:

*New, custom lower arms
*Mixel jointed hands
*More trans-blue added to the upper arms
*Piston-mechanism improved in the midsection
*Improved legs
(Also, I tried to give him eyes, but I didn’t really like how they looked, so I just scrapped the idea for now).

2 DA PIX!

Bye Guys!

As always, C & C is very much appreciated. Thanks!

The CCBS shells kind of contrast against the G1 style torso, which then disrupts the way it flows together. Other than that, nice! I wonder what it would look like without the trans blue.

He doesn’t really look like a Toa to me.

He looks kind of like a really cool Sci-Fi 80s villain.

He’s an awesome MOC, don’t get me wrong, he just doesn’t seem like much of a Toa.

OH THIS IS DOPE! And you want criticism? the chest has tons of grebles and the limbs are super smooth.

Not necessarily. Texturing, I believe is the word you’re looking for.

Yeah…I may need to fix that…

Mwahah, the irony. What could this point towards, maybe? :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks for the criticism, guys.

You’re fine. I get where you’re coming from though.

If you are hinting that he is mutated, then I guess that works.

I think he is cooler as his own sort of entity though, outside of the realm of Matoran.

Looks nice. The CCBS works well. Might need a small bit of trans blue in the legs.

The black… I dislike nearly pure black Mocs, as most of the detail is lost and impossible to see. It also doesn’t scream creative to make a monocolor Moc to me. And yeah, beating a dead horse, the textures need work. But, bar the things I said, pretty noce

It is a really good MOC, but aside the wings nothing really catches my interest. The shaping is very well done.

8/10 Thumbs up, mate.

Wow. I want to build something like this. Do you think I can “take some inspiration” for my self-MOC?

@Radiation-7901 As long as you mention that you took inspiration from it, then yes.

More signs pointing to Psithur being a sith lord.

HE HAS SITH IN THE MIDDLE OF HIS NAME.

HE HAS BLACK ARMOR AND A LONG BLACK CAPE.

HE HAS NO EYES. (rip)
