Now, I know the contest isn't over, but since these two are no longer in the running to win anyways (congrats to all that have made it to the final voting period!), I decided to post the updated version of these two: http://www.bzpower.com/board/gallery/image/882-nidhiki-and-krekka/

Apologies for being away so long, I've been working with set design for our spring play and have been pretty restricted timewise. Thanks to all for your feedback! After the contest, I will post new updated versions of these two, so stick around!

Awesome moc! Nuju was my favorite of the metru toas, and you definitely captured that feeling of that character. The chest is nice, and you have it feeling like both something we know and love, and yet keeping it fresh at the same time. The only problem isn't even with the build, it's the yellow discoloration around the eyes of the mask, but sadly, that's what happens with old pieces

This captures the 2015 feel super well. I had always thought of using that chespiece for a turraga. I'm a fan of that build for the chest, I also like the small bits you used to build out the waist just a little.

Thak you for all of your support! In reply to Petersheikah, I wanted to make Nidhiki fit in with the skeleton theme for the villains for 2015, but with the lack of metru green shells, I had to resort to using agori limbs. Another reason that the arms are so spindly is because even with friction adders, because of the torso build and connection to the abdomen, the upper body sadly wouldn't hold with any more added weight withought causing it to loose balance. To xccj, thinking back on it, I probably should have used the blue shells that surge has. And actually, the ribs are made of the handcuff pieces from the breakout theme of hero factory.

Thank you! As soon as I saw that there was a contest to redesign old characters, I immediately thought of these two. I had originally planned to use the metru green Iruni mask, build mandibles out from the mask, and extend the back area of the head; but after almost an hour of not finding any of the parts needed, I settled with tuma's mask. Maybe I could do an updated version after the contest is over though.

Just got done posting my submission, Krekka and Nidhiki: http://www.bzpower.com/board/topic/17394-bbc-69-krekka-and-nidhiki/

The beast was indescribable, as those who had seen it had never returned. It was given the name "Krekka". One day, a group of jungle protectors went out to hunt the Krekka, a young villager named Nidhiki decided to join them. After weeks of being away from the tribe, the group finally came across the Krekka,but they were severely unprepared for the beast. The group tried its best to defend themselves, but the most they did was gouge one of its eyes out. In an attemt to survive, Nidhiki ran away, but stumbled into a nest of skull spiders. They latched onto his body, mutating it into a giant, horrifying arachnid creature. Now the two travel throughout the island, hunting for the heroes that search for the golden masks.
