The Beach

Well, well, if it isn't ToM who's returned. And what a way to return. This picture is simply beautiful, it's wonderful. It would be great even if it wasn't a motif from MNOG, but that fact alone makes it even more awesome. I consider MNOG to be a great piece of art more than a great game and this picture captures its essence greatly. Any chance you could upload it with a higher resolution?

That is absolutely beautiful. I think I might use it as a background wallpaper as well - it captures an essence of Bionicle that might be quite helpful for me in making my comics which take place during the events of MNOLG, and seeing as that's the Ta-Wahi beach with telescope and all, it should prove to be inspiring.

 

Fantastic work!

This reminds me of Vakama's conversation with Takua, immediately after he's been expelled from the Bohrok hive and thrown onto the beach.

 

It's such a sad nostalgia; even back when I first finished the game, it was sad, knowing that MNOLG was over, and that I'd finished my time in that wondrous realm, so beautifully and consistently designed. Now it's far worse; BIONICLE has come a long way in terms of builds and MOC potential, but I'll always miss how beautiful and mystical 2000-2003 were, and this drawing of yours helps capture a piece of that feeling so well.

And just like that, nostalgia overload. Love the scene, it looks just like a painted version of MNOG's ending scene; the kind of image that appears at the end of an anime episode or something while the narrator reads the concluding lines. Perfect. :)

Aaahhh this so cool ^^ I really love it, especially the colors on this and the way you create space with the subtle shading of rockface as it goes back along the shoreline. There's a lot of really big chunks of space and then there's just these tiny itty bitty details like the telescope and tiny trees in the back and the birds, and then you notice the canister, and then finally the little footprints. It really captures the atmosphere of Mata Nui and the scale of that beach, and it also hints at the little narrative there of the Toa arriving. Absolutely lovely, I would really love to see more of this kind of thing :)
