The Wraith of the Desert

One of the most notorious bounty hunters on Bara Magna, The Wraith of the Desert is a glatorian with no moral code and unrivaled combat ability. His prowes have earned him a reputation similar to that of Chuck Norris on Earth, being credited with numerous improbable feats, such as bringing down a skopio with his bare hands, killing three veteran skrall with one shot, and robbing a trade caravan right under Gelu’s nose. His name is a mystery to most, and those that know it don’t say it for fear he’ll kill them. Here he is:


That backstory was hilariously over the top, I know. That’s the point :grinning:. Anyway, as always I’d love to hear your thoughts!
EDIT: I couldn’t stop myself, I’ve got one more Wraith joke. When I put him together, MY joints cracked! Done now… probably.

It reminds me a lot of General Griveous, probably because of the colors and the cape

Shoot, now that you mention it he looks a lot like pre-cyborg grievous. That was 100% unintentional.

That claw gives him a lot of character.

The MOC has an excellent color scheme and build but my favorite part is the use of parts on the right hand.

Great build, and the lore is very endearing.

@AdamusTheFirst Thank you!
@Darknova3529 Thanks! Funnily enough that was an afterthought.
@Rocka99 Thanks!
@jayzor17 Thank you. Guess I should add lore more often.

Love it. Makes me think of a post apocalyptic Bionicle series set in the desert. It’s a great cause nicely and I’d like to see more MOCs similar to it.

At least you acknowledge it’s over the top. XD

Pretty good moc, the gunmetal looks a tad odd, but not horribly so.

This guy would be the perfect friend to scratch your back!

I had those pieces you used in the hand but I never thought of them as fingers, clever

Thanks! He’d be more likely to stab my back lol.

The Wraith and Karzhani once played a game of poker. The loser was told to wear a mask stitched together from spare parts.

Oh man if this becomes a meme… but the Wraith once had a staring contest with Tren-Krom. The loser had to get fused to an island. Anyway, does anyone think he could use a hood?

This is pretty good. Nice colors. Use of tan is welcoming. I love it

The way you did the clawed hand is ingenious and a great use of those single stud clip pieces, I don’t know the common name for them. I don’t actually think I’ve ever seen them used in that way before.

Dunno if he really needs it, but it would probably be cool.

Just an idea I had. If I figure out how to do a good one, I’ll try it out.
