Vulcron - MOC

"Mr. Vulcron is equal to the Makuta in evilness, but he's out to destroy/convert Mata Nui's children" -Phanto

This contains Vulcron, his sword, shield, and a sheathed version of his sword and shield - which are static props. His weapons/sheathedversions are bonemerge enabled, so you can easily bonemerge them onto Vulcron. Vulcron's blade/shield contains one skin to make the blade silver instead of gold. Vulcron contains 40 bones, you can pose the shoulder armor (that's next to his head on both sides) and toes.

Background:

Vulcron is my real life Bionicle MOC. There are a few parts that I didn't have that I used in the IRL version, such as Ekimu's mask, and an armor piece that came with the 2015 Bionicle sets, a substitute is on both shoulders and just below the big chest area. (IRL) He stands approx. 30cm tall, uses Ekimu's mask with red eyes, with a sword sheath (not like the 3d one). The arms/hands/legs are authentic, because that's exactly how I built them. Right now he's missing his feet and finger claws. The sword's hilt in this 3D version, as you can tell, are customized, those two parts don't exist, but in 3D are a make-up of a Bohrok tooth and eye place opposite to each other.

(IRL) The buzzsaw shield is basically Ekimu's shield, except the buzz part is transparent light blue. The thigh armor and forearm are also transparent light blue.

FAQ:

Q: Who is Vulcron?
A: My real life MOC

Q: Why are there Hero Factory parts?
A: Because I ripped them, and obviously, I use them in real life too.

Q: Can you make more MOCs?
A: Maybe, but I don't have many in real life to get inspiration from.

Fun Facts:

-If you were to, say decompile this model, you'd find that the textures, and the smds and such start with "Ekimu" this is because Vulcron, originally, was my Ekimu MOC, and back then, I didn't have a proper name for him, so I just named the files with "Ekimu."

-In my fanfiction, Vulcron, is just Ekimu, because IRL, he's my revamp (so I just call him Ekimu IRL instead of now Vulcron). He was a legendary war hero in all the Bionicles eyes. For some reason unknown, he became bad - thus the red eyes - and wanted to destroy everything.

-Originally, his model was quite high-poly, but because of that, it went over Source's limits, so I had to reduce the amount of vertices, thus his quality is not beautifully sharp. (If Garry's Mod sequal is developed on Source 2, there's no doubt I'll bring Vulcron to workshop in his original prestine detail)
