TERIDAX941 Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 (edited) "Rhotuka spinners, being pure energy, make very little noise when they fly. Even if the one Roodaka launched had, Nidhiki would never have heard it over the noise of his own thoughts. All he knew was the black pain when it struck, the world spinning in front of his eyes, the bizarre sensation of his muscles shifting, altering, becoming something alien." - Narrator, Birth of a Dark Hunter I was so excited when the BIONICLE Encyclopedia first came out, I bought it immediately when I found it at my local book store. I started reading it immediately and when I got to the end, I was pleasantly surprised when I discovered the short serial at the end of the book. About Nidhiki of all characters (one of my favorites from 2004)! It was the coolest thing, learning about his adventures with Lhikan as a Toa, his betrayal of his fellow brothers, and his eventual mutation by the hand of Roodaka. It easily became one of my favorite serials, and this is what I decided to theme my submission on for the BBC 78 Contest. I realized that while many people have made extremely good MOCs of Nidhiki as a Toa, I've never seen one of him somewhere in-between his old and new body. I wanted to capture the moment in time of him mid-mutation, body shifting from a heroic Toa's stance into his new monstrous form. Hope you guys like seeing this new twist on this character, and let me know what you think! Thanks all!

Daler99 Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 This is an awesome MOC! I love the idea of making Nidhiki mid transformation between Toa and Dark Hunter and you pulled it off spectacularly! Great work! Quote ~Daler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
