If you couldn’t already tell I really like Brutaka gold. However I have come up with a lore reason to justify the amount I put on this moc. Since he’s a Toa of lightning I figure he uses the gold all over his body to release his lightning powers from where ever he pleases. He could just shoot a lightning bolt out of his leg. Or his butt. Heh.
But anyway, I haven’t worked on this guy in a while, so where do you think I could improve?
Very good. The stylized aesthetic works and the gold is close enough to keetorange that it matches. Only real flaw is the forearms but I think the only reason they are so big is because you were running low on gold. Get some gold shells or technic panels to replace them and you’re good.
No I wouldn’t recommend the add ons, they’re about as wide as the pieces you’re using now just go for plain shells or panels. The inika thigh cover in pearl gold would be a good choice also, they’re about a dollar on bricklink which is kinda high for such small pieces though.
This looks cool. The only constructive criticism I could give would be to slim down his forearms and put the gold inika armor piece on his feet. I found a way you could do that, but first, you would have to ask me to tell you. Second, it involves using two bohrok feet (one for each foot). Ask me if you want the design (you could not, and want to figure it out yourself, which is honorable). if you want to know, I’ll upload a tutorial on how to make such a foot.
K. So I really, really like this MOC. I love it. my only issue here is the gold Bohrok eye in the middle of his chest. and I think he would look better with fingers. also his feet should be gold. and he needs some tires on his elbows. But he looks very, very awesome.
