I was messing around with the Rayg 2.5 sprite sheets, since I'm planning on using it as the basis for an upcoming game, and I decided to cobble together a Kahu, with and without crew. It may seem a bit small on imgur, but I'm quite pleased with how it turned out. Bonus points to anyone who can figure out exactly what parts I used to make it. I also made Lewa with infected mask (using a custom palette made by yours truly), as well as the original Toa Kaita, Akamai and Wairuha, at the same size as the Toa comprising them. Full album can be found here, including Kahu, Kahu with Kongu and Takua, Lewa with infected mask, Akamai, Wairuha, as well as two Chroniclers, Kopeke and my rendition of Kodan, two of the playable characters in the game I'm working on.

I started making pixel art because I suck at regular art.

I've seen great improvements ever since I started drawing pixel art, even more so than I did with regular digital art. Oh, and BZP's activity has been shrinking dramatically as of late. -
Has anyone wondered why I have, of all things, a penguin as a personal photo? No? Thought not. But for the benefit of those non-existant few, I shall explain! It all began with a rather large muffin... As anyone who's seen my kits will know, I've dabbled a bit in pixel art. I don't consider myself a great pixel artist - quite the contrary in fact - I'd say there are a number of people on BZP who have a much better grasp of it than I. This has not, however, stopped me from experimenting. My first major, non-bionicle experimentation was the penguin. Yes, he is annoyed. And he's looking at YOU! Well actually, he's looking sideways. But that's hardly the point, is it? The Penguin here is an unusual creature, for he is no normal penguin! His quiet demeanour hides a deadly rage which can consume entire worlds! Armed with fearsome laser vision and the power of telekinesis, you don't want to get in his way now, do you? See? Deadly! But how can such a dangerous foe be defeated? Join me next time to find out!

Ah yes, the Monkey. The infamous Monkey. Arch-rival of the Penguin and occasional partner in his villanous crimes. The problem with the Monkey is he's completely unprectible, which does not make for a reliable partner. The Penguin is often frustrated by the foolery of his partner, and even once resorted to conflict in an attempt to rid himself of the menace once and for all. In the end neither could best the other, and it is from here their rivalry stems. They are forever trying to outdo each other, but have been known to put their differences aside for the purposes of mutal advantage. His name is Manic. I think it should be fairly obvious why. He has a number of powers, which he exploits to the best of his considerable abilities. Firstly and most evidently is his lightsaber. It is impossible to say what he will do with it next, leading many to think his possesion of it is a very bad idea indeed. Sadly no one has yet managed to pry the weapon from him. The Penguin, in an attempt to lessen the destruction caused by a rampaging Manic, bought him a gameboy. Sadly this backfired, as Manic has somehow found a way to harness the powers of whatever characters are in the game being played at the time. No one's quite sure how. Finally he has his hypnosis. This has swayed many unwilling victims to his cause who serve his nefarious purposes as unwitting pawns in his master schemes. Sadly his hypnosis has proven ineffective against the Penguin, although it has managed to calm him on occasion. The only known way to calm the Monkey is by giving him a large watermelon. Why this calms him is a mystery to all, but somehow it works.
