Here is a recap on a few things and design choices. I made him intentionally larger than a standard Toa. I shortened the arms keeping the bulky and a steam-punk esc aesthetic. And removed all bright orange.
Everyone seemed to mostly like the concept of the toa as the weapon and using his armor as weapons with forearm blades, so keeping it as is. I also swapped the mask and painted as close as I can currently get to the dark orange.
Yeah its a catch 22 when incorporating feedback. The changes loose the steam punk effect, now he’s more medieval knight. But after the iron giant comment I could not stop seeing it so sorta wanted to alter it then.
I like the body, but I don’t think the mask works with what’s going on. The mask is smooth and has an elegant feel whereas the body looks more aggressive, spiked, and visceral. I would recommend a different mask
