Comparing the size with Lhikan.
There were sharp disagreements with the opinion that Metru Torso should be used. I made an original Torso that looks like Metru Torso as a compromise.
I don’t know if it’ll be included in the canon. However, it would be fun for the sword to stretch like a whip.
It reminds me of the shape of the wave and goes well with the image of her violent queen.
That is my favorite Tuyet MOC that I have seen yet! And that’s a really nice shoulder mod for the Metru torsos! Could you show how to make it sometime?
WOW. That is a phenomenal build! I want to try to replicate that torso, that’s incredible. Love the action shots w the sword being fluid as well. This definitely has my vote!
A new challenger appears!
Welcome to the boards @swallow
The whip like sword is very creative and the shaping on Tuyet is very nice. My only nitpick is that the Metru shoulder on the back does stick out a bit on the side view. Still, I will definitely vote for this!
I like what’s going on with Tuyet herself here. The colour scheme is more or less exactly what I’d prefer, and the custom build is really neat. I also like the mask choice, even if it’s just a placeholder.
My concern, though, is with the sword. The blade is supported by an axle through a pin hole, which isn’t stable. You might be able to “pinch” it with the liftarms long enough to take a picture, but there’s no way it would stand up to any kind of long-term posing.
Really nice MOC. I like that she isn’t overly complicated for a Toa. But I think the Metru shoulder in the back doesn’t work very well, it looks like floating rather than been part of her armor.
I really like your sword desing but I’m not so sure of it waveling that much because it ends up been more a whip rather than a sword.
EDIT:
This is a good moc, the only bad parts are her upper arms. They look bend and unaligned compared to forearms and that creates this 2 stud long weird gap between arm and torso, also they look kinda long compared to upper legs. All those things disrupt her proportions and from my experience i can tell that to fix that you would have to either make upper legs 1 stud longer or make upper arms 1 stud shorter ( i believe that later would have better effect than former).
