Stroxx Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 (edited) I've recently made this pic a few months ago (if I can recall it correctly). Took me quite a while before finishing it, especially because I have no idea how I exactly made it. Really, I was just totally experimenting on it, but anyboo. Helryx is one of my all time favourites, and since she doesn't get enough love I decided to whip up something how she might look like. And water Toa are cool. They could literally own anybody with only a spoonful water. Just think about~ high pressure cutting machines are using WATER to cut stuff. (And no, I have no idea what's on the other side of the shield )And as always, constructive criticism is always welcome, though picky 'peoplez' will be handed pickles. Love you guys and enjoy the pic. Note: I have posted this pic elsewhere too. Oyee is my other alias I usually use to sign my pics. Made with CS3, love and delicious cakes.

Eeko Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Nice work!I love the water effect, it looks really cool. :DHowever, I think the picture should be brighter. It worked on your Makuta pic, and added a lot to the feel. On this one though, it makes it hard to see what's going on. I can't see where her legs end, and her torso looks messy from lack of detail.Overall a very good piece, just a little too dark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, you're fast The pic's darkness here is intended, though it doesn't help the issue, that my monitor is overly bright. I've been trying to balance this out somewhat lately on more recent pictures. I might adjust this ones brightness a bit, but I'm afraid that it would ruin that nice gloominess and them light effects. o_____o Quote New pages are up!

fishers64 Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 I like the effect with the water, and the really neat looking sheild. Is it just me, or can you see the human-looking arms in this picture? Not sure Helryx would have those. Is splashing water out of a weapon (I'm guessing) in mid-leap wrathful? Still looks like a good picture, however. Quote Hero Factory RPG | Bionicle Mafia XXIX: Storyline & Theories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Let's Henshin! Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Wow, I'm seriously loving your style. The water looks amazing although the colors in the picture seem a bit muddled, that's probably due to the lighting. Have you thought of making a comic, it'd be nice to see something hand drawn instead of sprites on Bzpower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyx.5 Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Dynamic pose at an unusual angle, interesting moody lighting, and some nice looking water effects. Whatever you were experimenting around with must have been pretty potent, it looks great. The only thing bugging me is that I can't see any strong design in her armour, it looks like it might just be random greeble, but everything going on in the picture obscures it anyway and puts it at lower priority. And maybe there is a cohesive design under there, not like it always needs to be obvious. But in case you don't, consider putting more work in to designing characters and cutting down on noisy details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zarohum Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I like this piece. It really captures the "Indescribably ancient" feel. Great work. 9/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brickeens Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Brilliant. Great dynamics, and I really like her colors. They're very aquamarine.What's her weapon? A club? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vezok's Friend Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 This is one of best artworks I've seen here in the past weeks. What strikes me most is the excellent composition. Highly dynamic and very well done. Kudos to you for that!I think if it were slightly lighter in the background it would be even better, but that is just a minor thing that is the only thing I think could use improvement.I really like your idea of Helryx' design as well.Great job!

00dude00 Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 I was just thinking that the art furum needed some love... then I saw this 0_0 WOW, the design and lighting looks awsome.

Toa Genris Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 (edited) This is incredible. I love the water effects and the pose and everything. You've done an incredible job right here. 10/10 Edited January 3, 2012 by bonesiii Please watch your language. --bones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katuko Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Nice! You've captured the motion here beautifully, and that shield looks very good. I also like the detail on Helryx herself. Usually too much detail makes things look messy, but you've managed to make the various edges look natural enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The G-Man Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 This really represents Helryx well. I imagined she'd look just like this anyway. More please(with epic battle backgrounds!)!

Toa Novu Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Oh my, this is absolutely gorgeous! I just can't stop admiring the way you played with the lighting and shadows! The way the armor and water glint just enough to define the color and form as they come popping out of the dark background is just so cool. Great job!

Sybre Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 (edited) That's a nice piece of art! It actually looks like Helryx is attacking you! What program did you use to make that?
