I love it. I've always loved this style of drawing so much!

Looks like Onua needs to work on his chest muscles though. :P

10/10 still!

When I saw "collection" I was hoping for a lil bit more!

Anyways, Onua head reminds me up Wolverine... must be the facial hair.
Good stuff regardless!

Doah!

As always, your work is inspired and inspiring in its singularly unique look and seemingly-effortless conceptualization. I've always liked you pseudo-anime style, particularly when it's combined with stylization of actual BIONICLE elements, as you've done in that Onua sketch. Also, I'm constantly admiring the consistent perfection of your figures' proportions and posing. Your art is always a pleasure to look at, and so I can't wait to see more of it posted here!

I love your HB, I hope you post the rest.
Obviously, the pose is great and whatnot. The only thing I can think of is that Onua should be much more hunchbacked with his head hanging down, if you were basing it off the set.

Your work has always been very inspiring =)

BD, you just don't know how much I love the creative designs you come up with for your HB characters. They're so unique! I has artist envy. xD

We're never surrounded. We just prefer to be right in the center of the action.

Looking at your art always makes me happy, envious and inspired. In that order.

Your work never ceases to amaze me, Brave. Great job.

Sadly, school and other forums are limiting my activity here.

If I'm not logged in and posting, however, I'll still have BZP open as a tab in Chrome.

Thanks, mates.

Did a sketch of Gali Nuva during class, because I have a weird learning disability or something. Can't process information while my right side of the brain is idling.

She's like in some heavy armor form. Trying to convey a really beautiful woman, but I dunno. I'll work on that.

^I like how you softened her facial features. You drawings are often really strong (not that anything is wrong with that) and it's nice to see a little lightness once in a while. I'm not sure about the angle of the eyebrows. They seem a bit...drastic? Gali is more of a serene person, and I feel like her facial expressions wouldn't be as obvious.

The layering on the hair is awesome. I am forever jealous of your skills and commitment to your art.

Your artwork is fantastic, as usual. Your old "Alternicle to Bionicle" art topic, along with Galigee's stories, were what inspired me to join BZPower, and you have improved considerably since then. Gali Nuva is my favorite here. I particularly like the swirly, wave-like designs on the shoulder plates.

Still, these are AWESOME and far better than I could ever do. Keep drawing! :)
