Impostor Lego Piece Found in Kid's Nose
Toa Faybos replied to Hapori Tohu's topic in BZPower.com News Discussion
That is definitely an earbud cover. -
It's very good! The detail is just right to give him a little pop. Green and black are some very nice choices and the dark effects really bring out the feeling of "makuta". The anatomy looks right. I LOVE that bow design as well as the take on the armour. The wings however, need a little work, which is understandable, they're very hard to draw. I had trouble drawing wings. However, the bow on his back looks to be in an uncomfortable spot. Sticking things behind a winged character would make it hard for them to fly or otherwise look very uncomfortable, not to mention the sheer size of it.. Also, it doesn't look like he's holding his sword upon closer inspection. If you're having trouble drawing a hand to hold a sword, it's great to look up a reference. I also feel that his eyes shouldn't be pitch black, he seems lifeless without a good red glow in there.All in all, I like it. Keep up the good work! There is always room for improvement.

LEGOLAND Discovery Center Opening in Toronto
Toa Faybos replied to Hapori Tohu's topic in BZPower.com News Discussion
Glad to finally have a Legoland in the Great White North. =D -
It's an interesting concept. It's not my idea. But I'm sure if you read the story it warms up on you. Trust me, it's not exactly what you would think.

"I've been waiting to kill you for a long... LONG time..." - Toa Metro After years of ignoring the shrieks of this character. I finally succumb to the shadow and produced Metro's Infected design. Here's a small profile. Toa Metro (Meh-trow) Age: ??? Allignment: Evil (Formerly Good) Power: Anti-matter (Before transformation is unknown.) Mask Power: Unknown Motives: Unknown Weapon/Tool: Anti-gravity hammer (Summons at will), Morphed antimatter bladearm. Facts: Was once Faybos' Rival. He succumbed to Makuta's influence for ultimate power and is transformed into a Toa of Antimatter. Murdered a Great Being. His body is slowly mutating with effects of Teridax' shadow transformation. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Bionicle © LEGO, Greg Farshtey Toa Metro © Me Enjoy!

I think I'm getting better with poses. Pyroa was the runner up an old vote poll. Losing to Isis. I saw my old pic of her and almost fell off my chair at how horrible it looked. So I felt I'd revamp it so she'd look awesome. Can you find the Akamai family symbols? I shaped her Hau too look more unique from her brother's so that it would look more feminine and to prevent mask cloning. Backstory: Pyroa's toa canister arrived on shore during a celebration of one of the Toa Nuva's more recent victories. She was immediately spotted by two matoran who were walking along the beach. The toa were alerted and brought to the beach to meet her. She claims to be Toa Tahu's twin sister, Tahu was skeptical at first but later accepted this fact as she further explained that she knew where Tahu came from, who his parents were, and most interestingly, who he was before his mind was wiped. He was also shocked at the fact Pyroa had wings and a tail. Slowly but surely she earns each of the toa's trust through venturing Mata Nui and it's inhabitants. However, one toa was not so certain. Toa Kopaka. Suspicious of this woman who just dropped in out of nowhere, he hated to admit that he was worried for his brethren's safety. Kopaka takes Pyroa out for a tour of Ko-Koro. No sooner do they encounter trouble with a frightened matoran who was being chased by a ravenous Kane-Ra... To hear more, be sure to read Shadow-Lockheed's fanfic, BIONICLE: Tale of the Twins. It is one of the most exciting fanfic's I've read and quite well written to boot. You can find her story on Deviantart. Enjoy! Pyroa © Shadow-Lockheed Her Revamp Design © Me. Bionicle © LEGO

BioCraft Chronicles: Minecraft Mata Nui Island Wallpapers
Toa Faybos replied to ~kh's topic in General Art
Psyched for the movie! I hope everything works out just fine.I will patiently wait for when that map goes public. Been meaning to give my new Toa Faybos skin a try. -
Reminds me of this episode in Rollbots where the lock-up system basically disable important joints in the limbs.Also... I can't stop thinking of Super Mario when I see this. XDAlmost reminds me of the Mc-Toran as well.

Sorry for the late response, I've been quite busy these past few weeks. ^^;Anywho, like with what the previous poster commented, you definitely have potential. You seem to have captured the identity of the MOC with it's drawn counterpart. It's not easy to create human/bionicle hybrids that look pleasing to the eye. But you're getting there. As for anatomy, chibi is when the character is SD or "super deformed" in this case, shorter limbs, torso, and a large head. You may have to shorten the torso/waist as well as the arms to get into that structure. The drawing is very cute and I like the fact you took the time to colour and ink the image. You certainly have potential! Keep striving to improve!

I agree with Saski's legs. I may fix them later along with her weapon. But due to it being drawn in a sketch book, the paper will leave some very terrible marks that could otherwise ruin the sketch. The ball-joint anatomy is reminiscent of the movie-style bionicle as well as the toy form. She's made to be pretty flexible. But I agree that her knees have no excuse. Keep in mind that she's not human. Koku's knees are actually fine. They're not bent so much inward that she would fall over. Deceptive innocence is her character. Thank you for the criticism my friend. I may just look up this balance concept.

Variety is a very important aspect when creating versatile characters.I'd like to take a look at that chibi. It sounds interesting. Indeed it is, it gives each character their own unique style and sense of identity. Otherwise if I say drew a bunch of characters that looked like Lesovikk, then... yeah, now that's silly.Well, I guess I could post her up in the forum sometime in the future. She's more of a "human" chibi however, but with the armor of the MOC I made of her, so she has a mix of Bionicle and Hero Factory elements to her. I'll let you decide if you'd like to see her. I definitely would like to see it. =D

That song would fit. XDYep the Bohrok animations was one of the things that inspired me. Poor Takua indeed.

Thank you. That;s what I was going for. =D

Thanks a bunch! Glad you got the message.

Thank you. Nope, Destral Sisters were drawn first. No MOCs currently of them. But if someone wants to try, they are more than welcome.
-
Thank you very much! I've been drawing bionicle for 10 years. Though most of my artwork is on another site. I'm happy that someone else appreciates different body types, even in the chest area. A year or so back, Koku would have been a major issue, thank goodness that's not the case. I wanted the Destral Sisters to look unique in their own way while still retaining their water-type designs. :)I apologize for the shoddy water work, I haven't exactly gotten used to drawing the actual elements yet, not to mention my sketchbook is difficult to work with.
-
I'm glad you like it!To me, their relationship is tragic at first due to the separation and having to fight tooth and nail just to see each other again. I believe they deserved a happy ending rather than a tragic one after all they've been through. =DI wasn't exactly focusing on the legs, I realized I had no room to make them any bigger but it was too late to fix that. But thanks for pointing it out.
-
One of those surprises are characters from a story I'm currently writing. The artwork of a group of toa called The Destral Sisters. I believe the topic is still in General Art.
-
Thank you very much! Being compared to Rahi Zaku flatters me. Unfortunately I never got the chance to talk to him when he was still a member. (I came sometime in 2008)I'm trying to bring back that nostalgic era, as well as a few original surprises of my own. I'm glad you like it. I appreciate those times as well and I look forward to making sure no one forgets it.

Heyo! Man, it's been awhile since I've drawn these two. I figured I'd take a new spin on Hewkii, as I was dissatisfied with how his old design looked. I think this suits better. Hope you guys like it! This is pretty much still a sketch, so it's not meant to be fully finished. Perhaps the lightened designs of the old Hewkii and Macku represent the ghosts of what their relationship once was. A close relationship between a Toa and Matoran in the bionicle universe is still a sensitive topic. Hopefully Hewkii and Macku can break that sensitivity. Being a toa does not mean you're older, but simply taller with elemental power. Despite this, you are still who you are. And Hewkii has never forgotten his feelings for Macku. Even in his current state, Macku will always see him as the Hewkii she adored. BIONICLE © LEGO Drawings © Me.

Cute. XDYeah, it's been awhile due to.... unfortunate implications with my old art. So posting this work on here still has me on nerve. But I'm glad you're still around to critique. Thank you Taka. Saski's legs, I agree, are a tad off. But that could always be fixed. Thanks for pointing that out. =DIndeed, I wasn't planning to have these toa looking like cookie-cutter characters. Adorable is what Koku is, she's cute, and a tad naive, but when it comes to fighting, she's deceivingly clever.That's right. Riku is the more serious of the three. And you were right about her having a warrior-esque essence. She is the aggressor in the group.You will definitely see more of them in the future. If you want to read more about them, you can find their profiles on my deviantart page. =D

Background: Before the Makuta revolted, Saski and her sisters worked as messengers, relaying important and otherwise confidential messages to key members of the brotherhood. What they didn't realize was that these messages were in fact information crucial to the poisoning of Mata Nui. Teridax was not the only one who conspired against the great spirit. And it passed right under their noses. Once this information was found out and the Makuta began their riot, the Destral Sisters attempted to flee as toa left and right were dropping dead from incoming shadow blasts. Unfortunately they could not escape Gorast, who had been blocking the only exit out of the facility. They were soon captured and put under surveillance by Krika, who deemed that the sisters were too important to eliminate, and without giving an explanation. During their imprisonment, the sisters were put through various forms of torture and interrogation to get important information on the Order, the secret organization that was formed to stop the Brotherhood from taking full control. But the sisters resisted, knowing full well if the information was passed to the Makuta, then all hope would be lost. Thankfully, after Saski had been through a grueling punishment, Koku had managed to steal the keys to their cell from Krika, who had grown infatuated with water toa since their previous attempt at escaping. They dove into the ocean and swam to the nearest dock in order to steal a boat they previously planned to use in their old escape route. Makuta gave chase, and they sped away. Now venturing into foreign lands to keep the information safe, how long can they last before they are caught? So here they are. I hope you like'em! Also, if anyone is somehow offended by Koku, I apologize. But that's her design and it will stay that way.

Looking great so far! You've seriously improved as a 3D modeler/comic maker.I like the custom builds of the matoran. It really sets off a good start for originality.
