MOC: Rakshi of Oblivion

This is a creation by OutStar LPB

Everything about OutStar LPB‘s MOC and it’s presentation is just about perfect. A Rahkshi of Oblivion, set to heavy metal (or something reminiscent of that genre, I’m not good with music), that looks like it was built from the ruins of a civilization before heading off to destroy the rest of the world. The tiny head, although somewhat comical, also gives a sense of scale and a touch of dread when you imagine what a Toa would feel looking at this towering beast.

If I were to change anything on the creation, I would want to give it a guitar themed staff to fit the music it’s set to, and not because of the Rahkshi Rock. The selected music goes together so well, and it looks like it would be right at home on stage with a band like Kiss. At it’s scale, I could probably work in details like individual strings using piping or axles. I might also be tempted to give it a larger custom built head, more akin to the rahkshi in the Mask Of Light movie, if not for how much I like how the tiny head looks on this MOC.

If you want to check out more of OutStar LPB‘s work, you can find their youtube channel here. It looks like it’s been more than 9 years since their last upload, but the creations on this channel hold up well even after all these years.

Note: I think the spelling “Rakshi” is a typo, but I have left it unchanged in the title in case the creator spelled it that way for a reason.
