User blog:Echo 1/MOCs and QftM and ItAoD updates!

Well, I'm finally done with school, and am currently browsing for jobs (as I'm out of money, and the reason why is shown later in this blog).

But anyway, I've had time to update a few MOCs, and write a ton of story material in the process.

So, I'll start with the part you'll actually read: the MOCs.

Malachi
Yeah, another Malachi update. This one actually downgrades him back to a Toa Metru form, due to the fact that I like the design I used to update Impulsae.

Weyland
Not really any updates other than the head and upper legs. By the way, if you have any ideas for how a male Vortixx head should be done, feel free to describe it in your comments.



Propheci/Reapyyr
Propheci's first appearance in ItAoD is his dead corpse (no spoiler here). But, even after all signs of life, Orange Draconians refuse to die...

Impulsae
AuRon's second self MOC, I'm still trying to perfect him. This version however, is my best take on the MOC yet. I mainly tried to get rid of the silver, and also make him look more like his sister. I think this is as close as I'll ever get with my amount of pieces at the moment.

Drawings
I've had a lot of time on my hands lately, so I've been able to make some pretty good drawings.

Laptop
I bought myself a laptop a few days ago! In fact, I wrote this blog on it. It is currently my writing database!

It is an HP Pavillion g7, and works fairly nice for being cheap (for a laptop). Does everything I need and more!

ItAoD
ItAoD is going well, and Weyland will make his appearances very shortly. Also, after a conversation with AuRon via YT PMs, I decided to change something Jevson would do, as gaining extra power is rather cliche, so I decided to change a certain plot element. By the way, has anyone read what Ridley from Metroid did with the colonists of Samus' home planet?

Also, the story will progress soon. I'm just more engrossed in QftM at the moment.

QftM
QftM is chugging along at a steady pace. I've written a good chunk of chapter XV at the moment, and the book 1 is readying itself for the climax. Be ready for the first fight with Makuta.

I also figured out a way to work energized protodermis in thanks to the article on the ebony material from Skyrim. It will not be an unknown mutagen like it was in the canon.

Also, I do have an idea for a sequel called City of Legends, which, as you would think, would involve Metru Nui. But, it only depends on QftM popularity.

Opinions on Stories
I really would like to hear readers' input on both ItAoD and QftM, so that I feel like what I'm writing is actually being read and understood. So, please, comment and rate both stories. CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM ONLY, no trolling.

Conclusion
Well, that's all for now. Please, comment on both MOCs and stories. I definitely want stuff on the stories.

Sincerely,
