Description Shuffling artwork from to this account. Nothing spectacular to see here.

"I found it strange that last night I dreamed of him. Not once in the entirely of my Bionicle fandom years did I ever see him in a dream so vivid that it had bothered me while I was working.

So, Tahu. Standing in the rain. It was a brief moment with him, until I woke up.

So I drew him in the animation lab.

Drawn 3x acutal size
4 hour sketch

This work is amazing,

I've loved Bionicle since I was very young and wish it got a bit more in terms of video games and media evolution,
This is the best recreation of Tahu that I've ever come across and really identifies with me.

I decided to fit it to be steam ID image friendly with a couple tweaks to make it me and re-uploaded it with complete credit to you.
Hoping your cool with that... Cheers!

After the horrible Battle of Bara Magna, it rained. Oh, how it rained. Tahu sat on the edge of a cliff, brooding. 'How much more suffering can we take?' he wondered. 'I lost my home to the Rahkshi, the Matoran were imprisoned, and our universe... gone... Why, Great Spirit? Why do we suffer?'

You're feeling awkward, you're feeling cold.
You feel there is someone watching you, oh no!
Is this just a dream or is it true?

You're getting blind you can not see
Every hour is filled with disbelieve
Are my senses playing a trick on me?
But, now is the time...

It's time to say...

Boo
We're every you see
Look out we might be real
This time we got you caught up in a dream
We're every you see
Look out we might be real
This time we got you caught up in a dream

You're feeling awkward, you're feeling blue
You feel the world is spinning without you
Like you were on a different plane

But, now is the time

It's time to say...

Boo
We're everywhere you...
Is that all you want from me?
Is this all that you can see?

We're everywhere you see
Lookout we might real
This time they got you
Caught up in a dream

Boo
We're every you see
Lookout we might real
This time they got you
Caught up in a dream

Tahu is my least favorite Toa; just beneath Nidhiki, but damn, that's cool.

Augh, I really want this as one of my many backgrounds, but its not wide enough and I don't want to crop it any further than it already is! Maybe you could extend it, add the volcano that's in the middle of the island or something?

Eh...I believe I drew it in that dimension. You should try messing with settings on your window's background to make it fit. If not, tough luck.

I don't know what it is about this piece, but I just really like how it's done. I think it's that you managed to really capture his character in it: proud, determined, and probably a bit more stubborn than he'd like to admit.

This is amazing. I wish I could color like that. And the mask design is genius as well.

Refavin'.

As powerful a piece as ever. The rain hitting his head and shoulders, running down his mask. He looks so serene.
