MOC: Slicebot

This is a creation by BlackboltJohnson

BlackboltJohnson‘s “Slicebot” is a simple but very fun creation. As it had no story posted with it on DeviantArt, I can only guess it’s a robotic creature designed for combat. It could be a construction robot designed for cutting materials, though it looks a bit too menacing menacing with those claws and bright red armor. If not for the name, I would likely have mistaken it for a crustacean themed creature.

As for constructive criticism, I’m not fond of how the eye is attached. It looks great, though I imagine it’s easy for the eye to fall out. Maybe the armor in the back is putting enough pressure on the headpiece from the other side of the ball joint to lock it in place? If not though, I would be looking for a way to keep that piece from shifting enough to drop the Zamor sphere.

This is one of BlackboltJohnson‘s simpler creations, so I highly recommend checking out the rest of his builds to see what he does with a higher part count. Most of his creations are Toa sized CCBS characters mixed with a bit of classic BIONICLE parts and some clever building techniques. He also has an eye for good colorschemes.
