Toa Kraia, Toa of Sonics

A member of the Toa Sentau, Kraia is sarcastic and annoying, often irritating her teammates. However, they have learned to put up with this due to her unbeatable accuracy with a sniper rifle.

And I really am sorry about the weird shell coloration.

Her gun is awesome, but she’s too short, her legs are kinda skinny for her body, and her mask is too tall. The gun is great, though, so I like it for that.

I’m sorry, what?

Skinny. I edited it.

I like the colour scheme.
(The blacks and grays meld well)

This is a pretty solid MOC, if nothing else. A bit of brighter color accents on the body of the MOC could do a lot to improve her. Also, just to note, the Nuva chest plate should be replaced by something in the rest of her colors, if possible. I do like the gun, though I wish that it was just black and trans lime.

I can’t do anything about the Nuva plate
The torso design actually requires that piece to hold togther.

@Unavailable45 To be fair, the legs were long and the color scheme needs some work. I can mostly understand where they are coming from.

I suppose, but you probably worked pretty hard on this so I give you massive props for that, good work man :+1:

Thanks.

To be honest the Toa herself wasn’t much work.

The rifle, however, is a different story.

Agreed

Here’s something: Try a different torso design. That’s a thing, you know.[quote=“lhikans.legacy, post:8, topic:22672, full:true”]
Idk how you took all of that awful criticism for a perfectly fine MOC, some people need to learn when someone not asking to have their MOC bashed. I think she looks awesome, screw these other guys

Dude, please. No reason to “flip off” people who are giving criticism, as in no way is it awful.

Anyway, this MOC is alright. I think this just needs to be fixed in the areas stated above.

Plus, this MOC looks really boring. Try giving it highlights or vibrant colors. A grey MOC is just really ‘bleh’.

I will say it needs an accent color. Even for a Toa of Sonics, this is dull. Other than the alright torso, I do not like the gun. Not the gun itself, just the concept.

Attacking someone’s creation isn’t okay, if this topic said something like “Okay I just threw this together but I kinda like it, ideas?” Or “Give it your all I don’t even like it, tell me how to make it better” then sure whatever give it your all, but coming right out and saying to this person without ANY request for criticism from the creator “Wow this is really bland” “Change the Color Scheme this is bad” “The legs are bad the torso’s wrong, redesign the whole thing” is NOT okay. Not all of this was you so don’t take it as a personal attack but it’s still not alright.

I appreciate any constructive criticism people are willing to give. If I didn’t want it, I wouldn’t be posting MOCs here.

@lhikans.legacy Ah yes, I realize that, but all that is doing as pointing out the cons, with the examples there.

Constructive criticism should always be appreciated, and with the creator here, he himself has even stated before that he appreciates constructive criticism. I always build by MOCing my best. I don’t settle with good enough, as that is what everyone should do. Make the best of what you have available, if this is to be prevented. Wait…I’m getting off track… :stuck_out_tongue:

He said himself he doesn’t have a ton of parts, on several of his topics, I can empathize because I don’t have very many either so my MOCing capability is low, but I do my best. Sure constructive criticism should always be appreciated but if it’s not asked for don’t give it. In this case it seems I missed something and he DID want it, but if I had posted this topic the way it was it would mean that I didn’t care for criticism, and I’d assume that most others would feel that way too idk.

But it doesn’t help me if they don’t point out any flaws. I post MOCs to improve.

I agree completely with Saxton and Hawkflight. however my issues here are mainly the color scheme and armor placement, the arms seem unarmored, and the knees are really open and gappy. CCBS can be easily used to make a MOC have great shapes and a solid look, however this placement looks open, gappy and unfinished. I recommend using size five CCBS shells on the thighs, facing forwards. and using any parts of your choice to fill in the back. then maybe try some other shells on the lower legs, should not be too hard. the arms need more bulk, and I would like to see more pictures without the sniper rifle. speaking of, good job! that is a pretty neat weapon.

Overall, a solid MOC with tons of great potential, I look forward to seeing where this goes and how your MOCs develop.

Good work! ,

I don’t know where you come from or what your own ideas are, but none of us were attacking the MOC or the artist in any way. We were all offering suggestions, entirely optional suggestions, mind you, under the guiding principle that any and all artists - any serious ones, anyway - wish to improve and will use any feedback that is given on their art to improve it and anything they do in future.

Lemme handle this, guys.

Look, Lhikan, I get that you don’t like people attacking his MOC. I don’t like unusual criticism either, but they’re gonna do it anyways. Let’s not attack others. If the author is OK with it, then he’s OK with it.
