if any of them ever died their element would disappear from the planet  forever 
 
a single stone tablet's record that's 10,000 years old is the only proof today of their existence: 
"day turned into night and night into day craters appeared and were quickly filled with poison it rained upwards along with the very earth we stood on the wind tormented us as it burned and froze at the same time."

 

this is a repost of old MOCS for this story I've made long ago in a forum long gone

I'll probably never finish the other 3 sadly

perhaps I've inspired some of you to try to make them ^_^

 

anyway i hope you enjoyed the story and MOCS!

wow, these actually look pretty cool! :D

I like the use of almost exclusively rahkshi parts on Nevomen, gives it the look of a rahkshi that has been wildly mutated. The colour scheme is limited - on the one hand this makes the figure look very themed, which is a good thing, but it might also be good to add some highlights of brighter colours to break up the monochrome a little.

 

Gorog is visually very imposing - the first thing that struck me when I saw it is how fierce it looked :P I really love how everything is covered in spikes, making it look pretty mean...on a related note, that's a really creative use of the piraka head piece. To improve I'd suggest maybe using different weapons, since the blades are the only silver on the model and therefore stand out a bit. Also maybe streamline the head (which, by the way, is a really original design) so that is fits with the rest of the model a bit better...

 

As for Shalan,  I have to say that's pretty neat - again, by using lots of the same parts it makes the figure look consistent, like its an actual set. The rider is the icing on the cake, and I think his colour scheme is just different enough to distinguish him. As for what would add to it, maybe reducing the amount of silver a little would help, at the moment it's a bit of an overdose. However, I do enjoy how jagged it looks, so I'm not sure what a good alternative would be.

 

These are all pretty good, and its cool that you've come up with a backstory for them too - hope you can find time to make the other three :)

These are really great, Geka_Ruko! :) There was clearly a lot of creativity that went into building them, and it shows.

 

The big spider is really cool, with its color scheme of silver, gray, and black and its eight legs, some of which are used as swords! The silver Rahkshi head is perfect.

 

The fire one is big, imposing, and also came out really well, with a color scheme of mostly two shades of red that works well to suggest a lava Rahi. This is a great use of a Piraka head on a full-blown MOC, and I also really like the use of two Vakama Metru masks on the legs! After all, according to 2001, masks on its body is what makes a Rahi a Rahi, isn't it? :P (Now all your MOC needs is an identical, alternately-colored adversary to knock those masks off!)

 

Lastly, the air one is also impressive! The green Vahki head is a good starting point which again leads to a full-blown MOC. There are so many Rahkshi Kraata holders; it's mind-boggling! Either you have a very big collection or that piece was later released as a large quantity in another set after I stopped following Bionicle. :P But the effect of using so many of them, along with all the other long and spindly pieces, makes this a very impressive MOC.

 

I also really like the green mini-Pohatu! :P The fact that he has a green Kakama and Toa body but Bohrok feet, arms, and legs makes him a very creative variation of the traditional Toa figure. :)

 

Anyway, these are some really great MOC's! Thanks a lot for reposting them! :)
