HOW DARE MY BOI KURAHK GET LEFT OUT ON THE ORIGINAL POST.
all my rahkshi models. i decided to included the heat vision one from stars, took a few artistic liberties cuz i can. i love all these slimy bois
Shout out to Stuart Sayger for never drawing the mouth on Hahli Inika's mask literally one single time. Could've just been shorthand, but it's so consistent I could definitely see it being intentional.
This like instantly fixes her mask for me without actually redesigning it.
...this is basically her canon look in my head.
Finally deleted my Twitter, hated the vibes, the ai bs, and hated all the hate. If I go back it's only to flood the ai with pregnant elon art.
Finally got around to designing a logo for the Knowledge Tower. Pretty proud of it.
So like, it's no real secret that the Bohrok were inspired by the Xenomorphs from Aliens right? The way their nest looks, the Exo-Toa/Power Loader, the Krana pull double duty as both facehuggers and as the human skull you can see in the Xenomorphs head under the right angles and lighting, the way the Bohrok head snaps forward to knock your mask of is similar to the Xeno's little mouth darting out to bite your face off, and ofc the Lehvak using acid (like the Xenomorph's blood) rather than air as it's element, even though the other breeds matched theirs up with the main six elements. The references are all very obvious in hindsight, though probably went over most of our little kid brains.
With all that in mind however...
...was this literally just another fucking Aliens reference?
I once had a dream that I was Takua and Jaller was the one to become the Toa of Light and I was so relieved. I thought he'd make such a better toa and knew that I could be right there beside him on his adventures. Like I knew it was supposed to be me, but didn't think I'd be a good toa. What better hero could you ask for than the captain of the guard?
Idk just felt like talking about it
"I will lead us all into the future! I... am... MAKUTA!"
"ARISE... Mata Nui."
