Description Well now, this was made for the January BCBS challenge over at MOCpages. The challenge this month, was "Theme Switch". Basically build a MOC out of Bionicles inspired by another Lego theme. The theme I went with was naturally Classic Space. I had originally planned on giving this guy a helmet too, but I botched that idea halfway through building the head.
I wanted this guy to have an almost comical appearance to him, so yes the proportions are off and the feet are tiny. On the plus side, I think I got what I was going for, so I'm happy with it.
The detail on the chest was where I started with this, and it was quite the bugger to figure out, not going to lie. After the chest and torso, I know that everything else if fairly simplistic, but like I said, I was happy with how it came out.
The drill was an after thought. No idea why I kept it, but whatever. I may or may not come up with a story for him later, (Probably not. He's already been totaled and turned into two other things, which have also been destroyed...).

I know. I wanted a more cartoonesque look for him. Not sure why, I just know that I did XD

Is this on Mocpages? I haven't been getting notified for new creations... he looks excellent, and I like what you did with the katana.

Not yet it's not. The uploader over there was being a bugger. So, I put it here first. I'm working on putting this on MOCpages now though. I do wish to ask though, what katana?

Heh heh, yeah... I thought the arrow on his chest was a katana.

Minifig hands are a little overused

Agreed. But I had no better ideas, or pieces to fulfill my other ideas

well the yellow, although it was intentional to be little of it, seems a bit sparse or random. just the mask and hands seems a little unsatisfying

Eh, I can see your point, but it was made to look like one of the black classic space minifigs

Look at me, already falling behind on commenting on your MOCs. Tisk Tisk.

Well the one thing I was gonna gripe about was the proportions, but you seem to have done that intentionally. Besides the chest, I guess I can see how it represents the classic space theme Minifigure, but I had to think about it for a sec. Overall, I have no complaints, which is good, but I also don't really have any remarks, this MOC strikes me as very neutral for some reason.

Gale-OneOfMany In reply to Plague-Doc-Matteo [2013-01-09 17:34:09 +0000 UTC]

Yes, I can understand that. It is pretty neutral. Not real exciting. Nothing spectacular. No nice weapons or armoring. Just basic stuff. Thanks though

Plague-Doc-Matteo In reply to Gale-OneOfMany [2013-01-10 16:54:58 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, pretty much. But that's the cool thing about uploading MOCs to a new place, you can present old MOCs to people and get new feedback. I'm loving that about posting on MOCpages.
