and meant to be indicative of a Swamp" toa or a toa of air that instead of living in a jungle region hailed from a swamp. But as I was working on him I realized I needed to expand the color scheme more so I brought in the sand and dark green to the teal, flat gold and light gray. |

The overal impression could go either way due to respect for the size and complexity but also a bit put off by the unusual colours used here. I can majorly appreciate that all the gold is the same shade here and not mishmashed with other variants so that's always good. Usually a mixture like this with the teal would be ghastly as it's quite an imposing colour but I must say, it actually suits the gold here. Not my favourite mix of colours I've seen on mocs by miles but it is just pulled off here so congrats for that.
I quite like the build albeit for a few minor issues but overal I can see alot of work gone into this moc with agreat pieces used in innovative ways. I especially like the legs,I can't entirely agree on the teal wheels jutting out but the build is still nice, and those Lihkan (sorry if I mispelled that) masks add a nice touch to the thighs. I'm not too keen however on the upper area as it just seems to be a bit thinning out too much as the body looks quite lean and then the legs bulk out loads.
The ehad is ok, not really many complaints there as it's quite a new concept and seems to fit the character here. The only other 'nag' with the moc is that the shoulders are stuck out on sticks that combined with the flat shoulder panels, kinda bring it to focus a bit too much.
Other than a few bits here and there that could do with tweaking it's an overal great moc with a fab new concept I havn't seen before and it's build almost breatehs life into this guy to give it it's own character.
Congratulations on another great creation ^^
