Remember when I made a self MOC? No? This joke dosn’t work then…

The wings fold in and out using two switches on the back.

The wings work off of different gearboxes, so they can move indipentently.

As you can see the legs need work.

The lower legs are very unstable, but look cool. The upper legs are too angled, making the leg joints useless. I also need a way of attaching the legs to the body with support. With the head and the arms it will be too heavy.
I also need a mask, I’m considering makuta or whenua’s mask.

Please leave feedback.

Edit: It’s done!

Honestly it’s really weird. The skirt looks awkward, and the entirely of the legs themselves don’t seem very stable.

The wings look interesting. Matoro’s claws on its feet look odd (I would remove them).

I’d remake the legs while keeping that in mind. I vote for Whenua’s mask.

The claws are for stability. If I removed them, how should I stabilize the legs?

#5

I’d remake the legs entirely to start with.

Here is a remake of the leg, what do you think?

I like what you did with the thigh. I wonder if the foot will have trouble supporting everything.

You could always use the Tuma-feet.

Those wings look weird, but also interesting

Alright, so I extended the leg and made another one. Let me know what you think.

They are much more stable and poseable.

Keep in mind that the foot pieces will be changed to silver once I get Pohatu Nuva.

Will this MoC have arms?

#12

Of course; that’s next on the list. Do you have any suggestions for them?

#13

Claws.
Lot’s of claws.

I had the same idea. How about this kind of hand with claws?

Oh. It’s Kopaka’s skeleton.

Yes, but add the lego claw pieces.

Not a fan of the skirt, and the feathers are a bit too small. Like the function, though!

Alright, I added arms.

They are very strange looking and I will need to change them.

I like the weapons, though I need a better way to attach the teeth to the sword,

After putting together the arms, they started looking like a crow. I think that’s the idea I’m going to work towards.

I like the claws and the sword and shield. But the arms themselves looks awkward (Mostly the lower half). Keep the shield and sword in their positions.

New arms.

It’s getting pretty heavy. I need a better connection for the feet.
