Description
Here come's Mr. Grumpy!Fixed him 3 times, now I removed the pauldron
and added a tribal tatoo and shoulderblades
poking up from behind.
Tried to make him look Polynesian
Complete with tribalesque tattoo, armor and Hawaiian sword.
Hawaiian sword reference:

Dirivative of Vectorportal's tribal tattoo. Thanks so much!

I like how you made him left-handed... It seems theres not a lot of lefties in bionicle.

I just noticed that you made Tahu a Left-handed swordsman. Was that intentional? As a lefty myself I was just curious.

Try my request: I would like a Toa of love to be pink, completely feminine and named Aroha for it means "love". Oh, and I think her Kanohi mask must be the shape of a flower and her weapons will be a pair of razor hearts.

Don't quite like the tattoo. But the fire coming off the sword is SOO awesome! It's a nice interpretation of his flame sword.

it always buged me that he didnt have a shild.... but drawn bad aced like this, its like he doesnt need one.
basically, arrows would like melt when they hit him, and wepons and fists would be scorched.

Very nice :3
His style certainly matches the looks of a tribal-man

Interesting how you chose to give the Toa of Fire a Polynesian look, and Hawaiian sword. I would rather expect to see these on something not so... opposite, if you will. Polynesians are island-folk, right? (Totally doesn't do research)
Anyway, this is great. The tats seem to really fit him. OH- maybe the tats are really like, scorch marks, or ashes? Lol. just something I thought up off the top of my head. Fits in with the whole Fire thing.

I was also thinking of a culture that practices surfing and lives predominantly around volcanoes.

You've probably gotten this a lot, but you should submit this and the others to Bionicle. i know that as a fan it would be awesome to see them come back like this, but it would also be an amazing opportunity for you as well. from one artist to another

THIS IS AWESOME
thank you for bringing a nostalgic tear to my eye with every thing you draw!!
A simple fish could not even begin to express my love for this - but heres one anyway.

Tahu were my favourite, just because he knew how to surf on lava and because he was the leader

The bad-assery here is off the charts man. You've got one of the best reimaginings of these characters I've ever seen. You and are the best that I've seen here. Marvelous work. Keep at it. DRAW ALL THE BIONICLES!
