Bionicle dream
Some time ago I had a dream about Bionicle, and wanted to draw it. To be clear, it wasn't '’the’’ dream, I never had one of those. In this dream, I went into the world of Bionicle.
So have a drawing of me and Nokama just walking :)
In that dream, I woke up in some ruined building in I’m guessing Ga-Metru. I think there was a hole in the ceiling, so maybe I fell through there? I for some reason was wearing clothes similar to those I drew in the picture, and had a wooden mask that was painted to resemble Kanohi Pakari.
Anyway, as I was laying confused in the rubble, Nokama came in. She stopped in her tracks when she saw me. We stared at each other confused for a few seconds, and then she finally asked ‘’What are you doing here???’’ And I was like ‘’Girl, I have noooo idea :I’’ My mind kinda skipped a few scenes, but I assume she asked me a lot more questions, and questioned who or what I am... ANYWAY, she ended up taking me on a trip to see Ga-Metru :] And she held my hand the whole dream. I, an almost 20 years old person, was led around like a child on a school trip by matoran Nokama 😭 lol
So I’m listening to Nokama talking about the city, and we’re stopped by no other than Whenua! He explained that he heard about a new weird Rahi in Ga-Metru and came to check it out. Well, I was that weird Rahi turns out lol. Nokama argued with him for a while since I can speak, understand everything they say, and I’m friendly and stuff... In the end he agreed that I’m not a threat or anything BUT WOOPS, someone called vahki on me :] And since both Nokama and Whenua were seen with me, and don’t really want me to be locked up, we raaan awaaaay We ran all the way to Ta-Metru, and ended up bumping into Vakama. So I made three people from the metru team meet prematurely somehow. He, of course, showered us with types of questions like ‘‘what the hell is that thing’' and, ‘‘what are you doing here, and why are you being chased’'. So we roped him in into that mess against his will, and let me tell you he was not happy xD
At some point we got cornered and were hiding behind some building. The three argued how they are supposed to hide me, and what would they even do with me after, and i just kinda stood there and looked at them. But while they argued, I think the floor beneath me broke, and I fell down. They tried to catch me but were too late, and as they screamed after me, I woke up :I If you’re wondering how I remembered all of this, the second I woke up, I lunged for my phone and noted all of this down. No way in hell am I forgetting this >:0 But yeah, it was a wild ride :v I worked on the drawing for a few weeks (university is to blame, I have no time for anything), and I don’t know if it’s presentable or not, but I don’t really care, it’s good enough for me.
I based the height difference on what I found on the internet, and the chart below. The proportions may look a little wonky, because the matoran have funny proportions, and it kinda doesn’t mesh well with my artstyle.
But hopefully it’s not that bad from your perspective 💀
I was dead for about two months now, but I’m back, and I have brought the promised Bionicleified Hatsune Miku!!! :D
It’s just how I imagined her, you’re free to dislike the design lol
But now, let me explain the concept for her. In my opinion, she would be a Toa of sonics. I know that all Toa, Turaga and Matoran of sonics are male, but she’s still a girl. She would be alive like 1000 years after the reformation of Bara Magna. The machine that makes Matoran could have had the restrictions turned off by then.
Her hair isn’t real. It’s magnetic, so you can just snatch them off of her hair. When I think about it, most cosplay wigs for Miku has detachable ponytails lol (Also, they were inspired by Rodaka’s hair. I imagine she looked at some Vortixx and was like: This! I want whatever they have on the back of their heads! LIKE RIGHT NOW!!! ) Her hands have this armor thingy to emulate how her sleeves work. Legs and hands are also black to look similar to her outfit.
Toa of sonics are gray. Like, just different shades of gray. Also, they mostly have yellow eyes. But I still wanted to keep some of her original colors. So she just has some rare pink eyes, and the splashes of blue are just paint. The paint still kinda works in world, since blue is kinda a feminine color, and it probably helps her not to get misgendered haha
Oh, and I almost forgot. I wrote her number 01 in Matoran alphabet on her arm. I imagine she wrote it herself to be like: Yes, I am number one Toa of sonics lol
I choose Kanohi Calix for her, since in many music videos Hatsune Miku often dances, so I thought it would fit her, and help her pull off those perfect dance moves!
As a Toa, I imagine she would travel a lot, and help those in need along the way, and when she stops in some town or city she would sing for everyone...
I think that’s all! Hope you like her design! :)
Takua!!
