Akahniki, the outsider (female vortixx moc)

Akahniki is a Vortixx and a former nomad. She wandered the wilderness of the sothern islands, before she settled down in a matoran village and befriended their toa protector. She carries an underslung blade and Kanoka disk launcher for protection.

This moc started out me trying to make a custom feminine torso build, that ended up turning into a vortixx. As you do. The final moc is very much inspired by Roodaka.













Bonus: The toa she befriended, Hotoke the toa of ice. Hotoke means winter or cold in Maori. He is a regular toa Metru build with some modifications to make him more posable. His mask is a medium blue custom Volitak I bought from Buyusforge on Etsy (although I don’t think its on their store anymore).

@kawaii_kitten I’m going to be honest, I have never payed attention to what Greg says is canon.

well, onto the moc now. i don’t know how i feel about the exaggerated female charteristics, although that’s present on many mocs. it’s a solid color layout, with a very g1 feel to it, almost like a advanced canon contest winner. bonus toa is nice too, although i don’t have much to say about it. overall, great mocs!

@kawaii_kitten Thanks man! Funnily enough, she kinda has the same color scheme as Krekka, which was completely unintentional.

Hi! I really like your Bionicle MOC, it looks amazing.

Do you happen to have any building instructions for it?

If not, I’d be especially interested in how the torso/body was built.

Thanks in advance!

this image provides a good view to start reverse engineering the torso.

Hi, here is a PDF of the instructions on the torso (made with Studio).

Please note that Studio was missing this piece:


So the instructions has a gap in the abdomen which is supposed to be filled with this.

The big buff chest actually makes it look more male to me.
