This is one of three MOCs, one WIP and one review I'm posting today.
I had a Makuta Torix, in the past. Never took pictures and I'm not sure if even Ria saw her. She was an unimpressive Makuta Phantoka who wore a Nui Rama's Noble Ruru. Her head was far too small and her staff was far too big. I also made the foolish mistake of trying to fill in the chest cavity of the Phantoka torso, which looked similar to sticking baloons/cushions/balled-up jumpers up your shirt. In short, it was horrible and the lack of record is a blessing upon the world. Anyway, Torix is slated to become a very important member of cast, so it's only fair she be rebuilt. With aesthetics in mind. I came up with this. I'm really pleased with the back, particularly how the Bohrok eye fits in there. The pivot point at her waist is pretty useful for posing Very useful indeed. "What do you mean you didn't clean your room!?" "Don't question your mother! Jokes aside, she's very protective of her creations. And Heyana. I'm not putting any backstory here. Torix is a touchy subject for spoilers. They congregate in her presence. I can't help but think it would have been better with a black Kaukau... Anyway, thoughts? Bonus image: "Feelin' lucky? Make my day." |

Thanks. It's an odd place to try and fit armour into. All I can think of as a replacement is some sort of Bohrok fang setup using two of those tri-pegs. I don't have enough black Bohrok fangs or tri-pegs for the job, though.

After looking at it for a while, the tires seem to fit pretty well. There's a number of things I might recommend, but I'm sure nothing you havent already got in mind.
I need to start that green to a XP |
