Firstly, by saying you're not much of a MoCist, you set yourself up for either scathing reviews or overt pity.
Not really, but I get so angry when my friends say "i can't draw" and I haven't even seen their art. Same basic principle.
Now as to the model... It's an interesting blend of body-types. I don't know how you got the red piraka chest, but you managed to make it fit in with vahki legs and hordika leg-arms very well. And is that a Mctoran head? How did you accomplish that? I'd really like to see! Interesting knee-pieces, I like them, and of course the zamor kanoka launcher is instant win. all in all, a good starter MoC. Not nearly as complex as some other models, but sometimes simple is best!
Though i would suggest you trade out the silver kneecaps on his arm for some red ones. If you have Barraki Kalmah, his shoulder pieces would fit perfectly.
And ignore the naysayers. They get bored every now and again.

Thanks Masterweaver,
By not much of a MoCist, i mean that this is my first ever MoC i have put online. I also love my sets, so only make MoCs out of spare bits.
Yes, ur right, its a Mctoran head.

I really like it, the only suggestion I might have is to make the hands and feet black to match the color scheme of Turaga Dume.

This is Okay...
No really... It doesn't suck that badly... the use of McToran head, the custom weapon and the thigh armoring are actually okay.
And Masterweaver... Red Piraka chest can be obtained with Axonn model and (I think) Kalmah.

Dont forget the Vezon and Fenrakk set Toa of Whimsy.
Anyway, I'm not one of those naysayers so...Anyway,
It's looks good for a first MoC, But how did you get that Matoran head on?
