Hapori Tohu Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 The Mask Maker Challenge is well underway over on the official LEGO Bionicle Facebook page, and in order to build excitement, LEGO has shared a new painting by Matt Betteker. This artwork depicts Ekimu the Mask Maker in his forge, where he's prepared a space for the three winning entries on his wall of Master Creations! As always in Betteker's artwork, there are lots of great details for keen-eyed viewers to spot. Follow the link above to check out the new artwork!

Wrinkledlion X Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 I'm not all that into the new Bionicle, but I've got to say, I'm really refreshed by the fact that G2 characters are allowed to eat and drink and do normal people things. 1 Quote [bloog] [brickshelf] [This used to be my library but the link is broken] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite interesting to look at it. LOL! I am not sure if coffee is canon, but okay. Things in Bionicle G2 are going hilarious these days, but that is very nice artwork!

Nescent Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 This looks so Sci-Fi...I love it! Seriously, though. I didn't realize Ekimu worked on a spaceship. Regarding the coffee - I choose to believe it's actually hot chocolate with marshmallows. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naota Takizawa Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Coffee? In Bionicle? What's going to be next, Makuta running a Starbucks? 2 Quote If you like Pingu & want to support a good project, click here. Also, I've rejoined the BZPRPG & I have a new profile for a new game.

Toa Smoke Monster Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 This is some really beautiful artwork. Ekimu looks really cool in this. But what interests me most about this is the city in the background. It kind of reminds me of a modern city one would see on earth. One can see roads leading to it, and what looks like a suburban neighborhood in front of the city. Even though I think the artist was painting the City of the Mask Makers, I definitely think that he took inspiration from a city on earth when he made this artwork. 3 Quote Everyone is one choice away from being the bad guy in another person's story.

Aanchir Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 I'm not all that into the new Bionicle, but I've got to say, I'm really refreshed by the fact that G2 characters are allowed to eat and drink and do normal people things. Yeah, I totally agree! It's kind of a shame the actual story so far has been mostly just action without much of this type of slice-of-life appeal we see in the paintings that have been posted to Facebook. Part of me is still hoping we get a story where the Toa have to make camp for the night and help Pohatu overcome his fear of the dark. But then another part of me says I should quit hoping and try to write that story myself, since I can't get it out of my head. In any case, the story next year seems to be getting bigger (four 30-minute episodes instead of eighteen 90-second episodes). Hopefully the bigger it gets, the more time there will be to focus on things other than fighting and destiny. 4 Quote Latest MOC: PAIGE (Prototype Artificial Intelligence, Gynoid Expression) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
believe victims Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 I love the design of this forge. It very much captures that strange old-yet-new vibe of Bionicle. The shapes are angled and geometric, with electronic numbers and masks in a factory-like array, yet he's still using a hammer and anvil and just plain old fire like any old blacksmith would. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishers64 Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 It's non-canon, kids. It's just like Free the Band. Don't buy into it. Kid: Aww come on!! Ekimu has this really cool spaceship mom! Part of me is still hoping we get a story where the Toa have to make camp for the night and help Pohatu overcome his fear of the dark.

Which is in turn a front for the evil band-napping Piraka!
