Hapori Tohu Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 We're about a week and a half into November, which the LEGO Bionicle Facebook page has now declared the Month of Earth. As usual, the announcement post features new artwork by Matt Betteker, this time with Onua as the focal point and some of his Toa teammates exploring the cavernous Region of Earth in the background. Attentive viewers might also spot one of the Toa Nuva symbols from 2002 in the scenery, an easter egg we've come to expect in these paintings. Follow the link above to check out the new artwork and celebrate the Month of Earth! View the full article 1 Quote News Forums Q&A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endless Sea (Alaki Nuva) Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 And I only just grabbed Onua two days ago. Neat! 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. I've been hoping to get back in touch for a long time now.

Iruini Nuva Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Always love seeing these. Makes the world feel bigger than the animations.

masterchirox580 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 That art style looks like the style seen in the journey to one screenshot. Journey to one concept art? Quote It's time to move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toa Smoke Monster Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Onua looks amazing here. His purple and black color scheme looks great, just like on his set! In the background, one can see Lewa and another Toa climbing up a pillar. I think the other Toa is Pohatu, since I can kind of see some brown on him, but I'm not sure myself. Regardless, I guess Lewa is proofing that he is the faster climber. 1 Quote Everyone is one choice away from being the bad guy in another person's story.

Wazdakka Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Glad to see my favorite Toa get his element featured. My only qualm is the dark and cold tone of the image.

Nescent Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 It's nice to have a closer look at what I assume is the Region of Earth. Those slanted pillars, the muddy ground, the whole place is just so darn cool - and Onua is as well. He looks like he's made of crystals radiating with elemental energy. I hope these paintings continue to be released next year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyichir Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 That art style looks like the style seen in the journey to one screenshot. Journey to one concept art? Probably not? These are done by one of Lego's set designers, not a media person. If anything they have more in common with the concept art for other sets than they do with the Journey to One teaser. 1 Quote Formerly Lyichir: Rachira of Influence Aanchir's and Meiko's brother Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naota Takizawa Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 This makes me wish Onua came with more trans-purple pieces instead of just four.

Nescent Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 This makes me wish Onua came with more trans-purple pieces instead of just four.Pretty sure Onua only came with two trans-purple pieces. It did seem like more... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny7092 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 (edited) I love these pictures! They look very awesome! Onua, one of my favorite Toa, looks epic because of his glowing purple energy on his body and his pose! I also love the background! It's interesting to learn about the Region of Earth more because of the vastness. All we have left is Kopaka (probably December) and Gali (if that could happen).

fishers64 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 I thought Gali already happened. Quote Hero Factory RPG | Bionicle Mafia XXIX: Storyline & Theories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nescent Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 I thought Gali already happened. They posted that gorgeous painting of Gali before the Month of _____ thing started, so there wasn't actually a Month of Water. I wouldn't count on a Month of Water actually happening though, since there is only one month left this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
