Posted October 23, 201410 yr So truth be told, I'm not much of a MOCer. I don't usually take apart my sets for that matter. However, once the golden mask contest was announced, I decided to re-familiarize myself with MOCing so I could start working on an entry. I suppose its kinda like "practice" building. Anyways, with that out of the way, here is the first MOC I've made in a very, very long time: Meet No Name: Why is he called No Name? Well, because I haven't made a backstory and I couldn't think of a name, so there you go Really what I was trying to do was build an MOC with waist articulation. I was semi-successful (its more like abdomen articulation really, and it can't really swivel, however it can move side to side a bit) Shot of the back (forgive the lighting, I used an extremely unprofessional setup). I believe the shoddy lighting makes it look worse than it does IRL, but that might just be me. He basically uses a smaller version of the Stormer XL shoulders to keep them in place. Shot of what's behind the cloak. Originally this guy didn't have the cape on him (I took a bit of inspiration from Zenerius on that one ), so his back is pretty much completely armored. (dem calves tho) (just an extra shot I took. Note the aforementioned unprofessional setup) Apart from the arms, I though he turned out alright, but please feel free to provide constructive criticism (it's my first MOC in a long time, so it's understandably going to be filled to the brim with flaws). Thanks in advance! (go to https://www.flickr.c...s/94700267@N05/ for hi-res photos) Edited October 23, 201410 yr by TheGreatSpirit
October 23, 201410 yr Haha! Really nice MOC, especially since it is your first in a while. The Bohrok plates on the shoulders fit well. The pictures are much nicer than mine! Edited October 23, 201410 yr by Zenerius

October 23, 201410 yr Thanks! Your competition entries are amazing btw Well, I'm not stopping there! Expect many more soon. Maybe you could construct a mount for No Name?
October 23, 201410 yr Author Well, I'm not stopping there! Expect many more soon. Maybe you could construct a mount for No Name? I'm not really experienced with building mounts, plus I don't have the biggest collection of parts, but I might take a shot at it. First things first though, he needs an actual name
October 23, 201410 yr Yeah, having insufficient parts really can be irritating. I kind of like the name (or lack thereof :D), makes it more mysterious, like a dark hunter.
October 23, 201410 yr Nice ! He (?) really looks menacing. Perhaps you could attach the cape a bit higher, closer to the shoulders.

October 23, 201410 yr Author I think it would be possible to attach it to the Bohrok parts. I'll try that for sure, thanks! But I think I'll just enter him as is for now (I'll still try the shoulder thing and post some pics, but putting up that light setup again is rather annoying :P) Edited October 23, 201410 yr by TheGreatSpirit
