Hapori Tohu Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 In celebration of summer, the LEGO Bionicle Facebook page posted a painting by set designer Matt Betteker. In it, Gali, Master of Water, swims amidst the ruins beneath the seas of Okoto, channeling elemental energy through her hands and attracting the attention of curious sea life. The artist's style really brings the Gali set to life, and it's great to see that the creativity of the Bionicle design team extends beyond the products we see on store shelves!

The Hordika Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 I see the Nuva Sign for Gali in the back! Maybe it'll return for the next Toa phase? 2 Quote I'm currently in the process of rewriting G2.

Toa Smoke Monster Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 This is a really cool piece of art. I like how Gali looks, and the background is very well drawn too. I would really like to see more artwork like this in the future. Quote Everyone is one choice away from being the bad guy in another person's story.

Endless Sea (Alaki Nuva) Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 On one hand, streamlined armor! On the other, her mask looks more masculine now. :/ Quote It is not for us to decide the fate of angels. Dominus Temporis, if you're out there, hit me up through one of my contacts.

Ballom Nom Nom Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 That's some absolutely incredible artwork! I love the aesthetic, and the way Gali's armor is stylized, and the more streamlined form. The Nuva Cube is a neat little reference as well. Here's hoping we get more art in this style! ~B~ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster Nui Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 Yeah, I'm loving the Nuva Cube references. We had Lewa's one on the Happy Easter picture, and now we've seen Gali's. There will probably be more. Anyway, great artwork overall. I like the inclusion of fish. It gives me something to compare Gali with in terms of scale and style. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny7092 Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 That is a beautiful piece of art! It's interesting that she is in the water in ancient ruins beneath Okoto and there is her Nuva symbol in this majestic picture. She looks like that she is using her elemental powers without her Golden Mask. Just her regular blue Mask. Anyway, I hope we'll get more of these for the other Toa, too because this is fabulous! 1 Quote I like Lego, Bionicle, and Hero Factory! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may just be an artistic choice, however. Azure-blue looks better in a water environment than gold, in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naota Takizawa Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 (edited) Her jawline looks too much like Tahu's in this art.

It may just be an artistic choice, however. Azure-blue looks better in a water environment than gold, in my opinion. Why do people continue to assume that the Toa can't use their elemental powers without the golden masks? You would think that the "Mask of Water" would include some degree of control over water, no? I could've sworn we'd seen some story info that stated that the golden masks only allow for greater control over elements...

Nidhiki of the Shadows Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 (edited) Love the inclusion of the Nuva symbol. Other than that, what a fantastic art piece of Gali. I really dig the style. If there was another Bionicle game or movie I'd like them to be depicted like that. -NotS Edited July 17, 2015 by Nidhiki of the Shadows 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
