Project Toamod Mistika


I'm remaking the Toa Mistika as the entry to my blog contest.

Right now I've got Tahu and Onua pretty much done. Gali is still a gunmetal, lt blue and dk blue Inika. She must be fixed.

Onua: I used the basic body design of Pohatu Phantoka. His arms are attached differently, but whatever.
He's got black no-toes Inika feet. I would use toed but I has none.
I'm using all those lovely Nuparu Mahri armor pieces...
He's got a Midak and a Quake Breaker. And fingers.
He is dk bley and black, with silver shouder and chest armor.

I'm using all the Mata masks, as it seems that's what the designers are basing the Phantoka/Mistika masks on.

Tahu: I did everything wrong on him, and I still like it. He's silver, red, and dk red, he's got a Cordak, and I'm using Rahkshi legs. And greatest horror of all, he's got a backwards Piraka torso. You'll see how I fixed him.
He's got toed Inika feets.
He's got his double flame swords back. Yay!

Overall, I'm surprisingly please with these. I may continue to make Toamods.

I personally dislike the clawed Inika foot, as two-toed feet are the only ones I strongly support for the Matoran species when the toes are distinct. Of course, I suppose you can think of these as some sort of foot attachments and not real toes, but I still dislike them.

 

I actually like the fact that Tahu Mistika features the same feet and legs as Kopaka Mistika, as the two are so similar in personality and were near-identical in the original sets.

 

I can't wait to see how these color schemes of yours work out. I am a bit skeptical, but if they end up looking good I would be glad to feature them in future MOCs. Tahu's seems particularly intriguing as it reminds me of his color scheme in the movie. (Replace the silver with dark silver and you'll have matched it exactly!)

 

I personally plan to do something similar, but perhaps instead of redesigning them as Mistika I may create Phantoka forms, giving me an excuse to draw them in these forms in a manner not necessarily non-canon. (omg I used litotes!!!) Regardless of what title they take, I will probably feature them in the Matoran masks (I won't try to convince you that these would be suitable new forms for the Nuva masks any more than I already have) painted to what colors I choose unless the new masks should prove more suitable for my drawing style than the pics so far have indicated.

Onua has fingers? I hope they aren't custom, that'd be bad. (But I gave my MOC "fingers" like Lewa.)

Hydraxon type fingers, but connected differently.
