Title: MOC: Anapouri
Description: Huntress of the Mists
Shadowed Noxus - July 30, 2012 10:53 PM (GMT)
You walk through the desolate land, continuing on towards the tower. A metal jungle of wrotworks and twisted metal stretches out before you, creating a haunting image of the land itself grasping at you, trying to drag you into it's dispair. Deep inside, groans and growls of dangerous rahi break the silence of the mist that wraps around the landscape. Before you take your first step in, a rush of sound distracts you.
Looking around, you spot a feminine sillouette break through the mists, stepping forward as her sleek metal frame cuts curves through the darkened environment. Her voice breaks the silence, both seductive and mysterious.
"So...you're wanting to go through that, huh?"
"Well, I wouldn't really advise it, unless you want to be torn to shreds. But I can see you have the guts."
"Maybe I'll stick around and see what trouble you can get into."
This is Anapouri (her name taken from the Maori dictionary using the words meaning "Her" and "Sorrow"). She is the Huntress of the Mist, existing in the same realm that Noxus comes from. In her early life she was part of an experiment to combine both Rahi and Toa elements, and it was pretty successful despite her rebellious nature. Before her land fell to events that caused it to become cursed and broken, she worked as a bounty hunter. Now she roams the land, working with what is left to thrive. She is both cunning and steathly, but underneath her metal exterior is a warm, caring heart.
This is my first female BIONICLE creation. I was just kind of putting things together and it turned into this when I noticed she had a feminine physic to her. Personally, I like how she turned out. She's very stable, and just a bit shorter than Noxus himself. They actually look good together as a pair, so I might make a team or something out of them.
Anyway, here you go. ^^'

The torso looks well-designed and quite impressive, however the legs are a little... Bar-ey? The hair's sort-of wierd too. Tone the hair down a bit and replace some of the bars with more flowing armour and it'll look much better, I think.
Nice job, overall. The structure and torso are great.

Basically my thoughts too.

Yeah. I would have given her different thighs but I didn't have the right parts at the moment. As for her hair, I'm still working with it. I want to use those Toa Mahri tubes for her hair if I can get the ones I have to straighten out a bit and curve correctly (they are bent out of shape because of previous failed projects).
But yeah, thanks for the advice. ^^

Everything looks really well built. You might want to modify the feminine hair on Anapouri, and a bit for the front of her shoes, though. I think the front part of her shoes is kind of open if you know what I mean( the back part of her shoes is fine)
The torso and bottom legs are very well done!

The parts on the torso and head are well used, but the limbs, the legs in particular, could use some work. I like the color scheme you have going.

I took off some of the hair parts so now she has a ponytail thing going on.
As for her leg, I added some dark red Toa Metru leg elements to give her some thighs. Other than that, there's not much else I can do for her.
I'll get a picture tomorrow. I also have another MOC on the way who is a WIP.

I was hoping to get this one on the front page, may I go ahead with these pictures or should I wait for the updated version?

Give me some time because I've been busy with college. I'll get pictures as soon as I can. ^^
