Popular Post Mr. Cod Posted March 17, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted March 17, 2015 (edited) So this time around I decided to make some modifications to the set before painting it up, and to change the color scheme up a bit from the original. More angles can be found here. You can also check out some of the other stuff I've painted here and here.

Prowl Nightwolf Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I knew I smelt something fishy when I seen the title of this thread. Now I know why. Gali done has her some sea-moss, barnacles, and several starfish. She looks like she is ready for a date with Poseidon. Very nice work there MrCod. Also liking the clownfish motif for the Skull spider mask. 3 Quote "A stranger will always be a stranger unless you give them a chance." || <- My Pokémon | BZPRPG Characters: Po-Matoran Doseki & Nui-Jaga Scorpio; Ga-Matoran Orca Matoran und Panzer: Doseki & Glitch | Marvel RP PC | Mata Nui Monopoly: Come...

Soaring Strawberry Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 WHOA!!! I'm really impressed! Also who knew that her attachment parts for her staff looked better when they matched the other end of the trident? She looks like she came from under water instead of space-time when she was summoned to save Okoto! Love the clownfish design for the skull spider mask, too! Are you going to decorate the legs or is it going to be a skull fish....? Quote New song parody: For the first time in forever (Bionicle is Back) Hi! I love drawing and animation!

Mr. Cod Posted March 19, 2015 Author Share Posted March 19, 2015 Are you going to decorate the legs or is it going to be a skull fish....? No, paint chips off the legs pretty easily so I'm going to keep them unpainted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Specter Knight Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 This is awesome! I'm getting all sorts of "Ancient warrior" Vibes off this, probably due to the grimy, barnacle-coated armour, which I just adore. The Skull spider clownfish is a nice addition, too.

Aanchir Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Awesome paint job, although I'm not a huge fan of the changes you made to the color distribution. I thought the metallic gauntlets and greaves suited her better than blue ones would.Also, is there any particular reason you didn't paint the gold spear and silver blades on her harpoon? I think it would look better if you matched them to the yellow and silver parts from the larger end.

I think it would look better if you matched them to the yellow and silver parts from the larger end. The paint just doesn't stick to those parts very well, and started chipping almost immediately.

Sybre Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Every time I click on one of your topics, I expect to see something amazing. You haven't failed once. This recolor is amazing! She looks like an ancient sea warrior that's just come out of a deep sleep. You definitely went all-out on making Gali more sea-themed, and MAN, does it look good! You've amazed me for the 1000th time, dude. Never stop being talented. Quote mindeth the cobwebs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munty Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I was hoping this would be another full repaint when I saw the title and it's another excellent job! Liking all the little details you've added though they do hugely contrast the pristine transparent parts now (unavoidable) I hadn't noticed you repainted the silver parts blue until Aanchir mentioned it and my Masters are on a shelf right above my monitors so I think that's a thumbs up for me. It does look a little odd once I compare them directly but I think the blue works well, more like Gali Mata (which is definitely a good thing!) You used a darker blue as well right? Did you try to match the 2001 blue or is it just my eyes? Another great job, can't wait to see all 6 of them together, keep up the good work!

Pohatu: Uniter of Stone Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 This is beautiful. I wish I had even the smallest amount of skill with set modification so I could make stuff like this.

Tarvaxx Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 (edited) Peoplllleee, the shoulder armor is supposed to hit against the arm, not be weirdly upturned and untidy. Have you people even heard of gravity? XD The lack of the community's knowledge of how gravity and shoulder pads work aside (it's messy to leave the shoulder pads up, and no I don't care if it helps your fantasy of posability, it's still a very ugly and non-canonical way of posing), I think this looks very good!

Zeb Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Wow, this is pretty cool! You've done a good job at making her look very realistic, and the clownfish Skull Spider is a very nice touch.

Tahtorak ate my house! Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Truly amazing work there. The level of details on your Gali is astounding - even the metallic shark fins are taken care of as well. And the clown fish/spider is simply brilliant!

Rooster Nui Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Wow, that's a fantastic repaint you've pulled off. It looks as if she is all rugged up from fighting in the water too much, and has sustained some problems. She also seems like she belongs to the theme of Christian Faber's work of Rebel Nature, which I personally find to be a great thing. The painted Skull spider is pretty cool, as people have mentioned. However, I wish it had more stripes, but that is just what I want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Cod Posted April 14, 2015 Author Share Posted April 14, 2015 Firstly, I'd like to thank everyone for the compliments! The painted Skull spider is pretty cool, as people have mentioned. However, I wish it had more stripes, but that is just what I want. Yeah, I was trying to find a way to put a third stripe on there so it would look more like an actual clownfish, but I decided that it looked better if I kept the stripes going along the segmentations of the mask itself. Impressive! What did you do to the masks to make them look like that?this is absolutely amazing. what did you use for the barnacles/ seaweed? The masks themselves are plain old hobby paints. The sea moss is sand glued onto the armor. As for the barnacles and starfish, I sculpted those out of putty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

32one Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Wow, this is incredible That shot of her with the skull spider mask makes the 2H villians look like more of a joke than they already are.

Mr. Cup of Fail Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 (edited) I still hate the set, but I really love the armor and I would also love to see more armor like those... and if you made armor pack like those, I would buy it. But I find it a little odd that there isn't anything on the mask beside just being painted, plus this Gali have more blue then the original. Also are you going to be making more like this anytime soon?
