[Onepu, 2015]

I love this. Smaller, but a lot of attention to detail. My first foray into any type of MOCing began only with the 2015 bag of parts I got, so it's nice to see what someone can do with them. I'm mostly amazed as to how you got the Skull Spider mask to fit on something that wasn't the head. I couldn't figure that out for the life of me. (Then again, I guess that's not saying all too much.)

 

That headdress is also really, really cool. Those purple wings weren't part of the 2015 parts, were they? I'd hate to have missed those in the rush.

Turns out the new masks will fit neatly onto any piece that's two studs wide with either axle or pin holes on each end. They'll lock in place if they're axle holes and swing loosely if they're pins. It's pretty neat.

 

And thank you! The wings I got in a Chima set I picked up randomly earlier this year, but they're also in the purple Mixels.

[Onepu, 2015]

Now that I've had a chance to sit down and play with some of the 2015 Bionicle parts I got from New York Comic Con, here is a thing that uses a few of them! I was fiddling with Onua's mask and the purple/trans-purple pieces I picked up and decided to build Onepu. Except, of course, the new Pakari doesn't come in purple, so I had to figure out other ways to make his head primarily purple like it used to be.

Ended up deciding, after his head went the direction it did, that this Onepu is a chieftain of the village of Earth on Okoto. He wears the mask of a Skull Spider on his shoulder as a trophy of battle.

 

Also where I realized just how few Hero Factory parts I really have. Maybe need to fix that.

 

(Also also, hello everyone! It is nice to finally have something to post here again.)

[The Beach]

Wow so I haven't posted anything on BZP in forever! I've been drawing a lot in the last few months now that I have regular free time in my life again and, of course, eventually lots of it ended up being Bionicle. Micah convinced me that I should maybe perhaps post some of it here so here goes!

As is generally abundantly clear, 2001 remains my favorite year and I still can't stop drawing Mata Nui/the Tohunga/the Toa/literally anything from then. One day last week I was inspired to draw the beach of Ta-Koro (the scene of, really, one of the defining moments of my childhood) so here it is!

 

Probably I will post more things soon I guess?

[Project 2012: Completed Calendar]

Fantastic! I'm so glad this all came together so well in the end, the result looks good. Thanks so much for asking me to be a part of this, again — I'm really happy to have contributed. (Also because it got me to get up and do something artistic for the first time in a while!)I also snuck around and looked at the upcoming months, heh, and everyone else's stuff looks good too. Here's hoping more people see this!I do have a couple questions about the titles my pieces ended up with, though...
