This is Toa Valia, the resident Toa of Light in my line of characters as well as my sister's self-MOC. It only makes sense that her element be Light, because my real life sister is so happy all the time that she makes my life that much brighter.

Hey, you finally got around to posting detailed pics of her! Looks great! Nice work on the hair. A+

Very nice- creative parts usage, feminine without overdoing it if you know what I mean. *coughroodakacough* I do feel the head is a bit too large for this body frame, however, but there's no other way to get the Iden.

Do you have any pictures of the previous version available for comparison? 

Regardless, this is a very nice MOC. I think the black in the upper torso sort of stands out, but the overall design is pretty good.

hm ,pretty solid though, if it's not too much trouble, i do see some faults. :0

 

firstly, between the quite frankly huge kanohi Iden, and the large round shoulder pads, it gives a distinct top-heavyness, which also has to deal with the awkward gap between the aforementioned pieces. however, depsite this i couldn't think of a way to alleviate this issue so i'll move on,

 

the other thing that catchs my eye (in the poor way) is that the color scheme is, no offense, kinda everywhere? there's two shades of yellow fightin for dominenece on top of (and under) the white, plus the resident metal color of titanium. while i get what was attemted, it kinda makes what is a rather smooth build look jagged and broken. o:

 

otherwise though, you did manage a smooth build without jumping to the, er, "standard" for female characters we've mostly come to expect in bionicle building. so, that's neat!
