That Matoran with a Vahi Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Oh, yeah, I've been meaning to post this for a bit. It's... not anything super-spectacular - as much as I'd like to produce more Bionicle artwork, capturing their detailed mechanical appearances doesn't come easily to me nowadays - but, at the very least, an attempt was made to get back into the style. I ran with movie style because... well, I've always loved how those old movies looked, anyway. And it just feels more natural to me than set-based style. Also, considering I signed up to a movie-style animation project on here earlier in the year, I certainly need the practice! I actually drew this several months back; only, I procrastinated on doing the final shading until recently. Not altogether sure whether I'm happy with it or not; but I figured, why not share it here anyway? It's far from the worst work I've shown here xD Drawn with a wacom bamboo tablet in FireAlpaca; final shading added in Photoshop. Um... I really don't know what I'm doing when it comes to drawing Bionicle characters. Constructive advice is welcome? 8 Quote "New legends awake, but old lessons must be remembered.

Daler99 Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Very nice! This is an awesome rendition of Hahli! Keep up the good work! Quote ~Daler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Inika Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 She's very cute. I love her expression. It's especially hard to make them emote with the masks, and you made it work as well as Miramax did. Can't wait to see your movie-style animations. 1 Quote "You are an absolute in these uncertain times. Your past is forgotten, and your future is an empty book.

The Master of Energy Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 You should draw more of these, especially Jaller and Kopaka. Quote RPG Characters: Explota Akkitu MOCs: Toa Mata with 2015 Colors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taka Nuvia Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 That's really amazing! =D You have a really nice, clean style going on there - for a second I was wondering if this was actually done with vectors. (also, nice digital lineart. I always struggle with that ^^') Something about the perspective on the mask strikes me as a bit odd, but other than that, there's not really much to criticize here. Keep up the good work, I'd love to see more of your art! 1 Quote My art collection topic - updated! (21/09/2021) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toatapio Nuva Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 I love it! I'm also really fond of the movie-style, so it's nice to see more art in that style. 1 Quote My BZPRPG profiles - Viima, Lai Lai Kirgan, Jarkale, Hile, Tuli + Kavala, Khervos, Thira Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHTrilogy Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 That's splendid! That organic film look is definitely there. Quote ~ CHTrilogy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harvali Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Aw cute, love how you made her metal torso and mask so fluid and rounded in shape, really brings home the organic components of her body, and it fits a Ga-Matoran. Great job capturing the look of the movie Matoran too.
