Hello! I thought I’d post this drawing that I made for the TTV Brickonicle contest into the artwork forum.
Thank you and enjoy your day!

I had a ton of fun making this, and thanks to TTV for giving me a reason t…

ALSO! Totally check out this awesome new design by Ragdoll of a Tahu Fig. It’s amazing.

Tahu Minifigure - Brickonicle Concept Art Brickonicle

Some thing that took me too many weeks to make. [image] So yeah, a Tahu Minifig I felt like drawing after listening to the Brickonicle discussions on the podcast. I tried to keep budget in mind when making it, but went relatively overboard anyway. I haven’t found a minifig that has more than 5 ink colors on it, and this has 7. Also - dual molding on the arms. Oh well, I did my best. Had a lot of fun with it too. So, using the HF minifigs as inspiration for his mask, I also gave him a head with printing to give him a lot more expression under it. A gold version of the mask next to the heads, and a fire sword built like a lightsaber. Different perspectives of the minifigure, and some building instructions for some reason. Then some “promo art” with Tahu in his classic pose. So yeah, h…

Very cool. Do you plan on doing any of the other Toa?

Altair · February 12, 2017, 3:23pm

Looks exactly like how I would imagine a Bionicle minifig, so great job!

Ninja · February 13, 2017, 4:14am

Someone needs to 3d print that.

TheMightyObsidianDude · February 13, 2017, 5:18pm

I want that so badly.

Leoxander · February 13, 2017, 8:31pm

Give me the real thing!

AIDY_the_BOOKLE · February 14, 2017, 2:18am

@Stoax Maybe! It would be pretty fun.

@Altair Thanks, friend!

@Ninjanicktf I’d love that. I would actually totally be willing to 3d print the helmet, if I knew how. I made some decals, so I might also print them on some stickers when I get my fig collection back.

@TheMightyObsidianDude Thanks! Me too!

@Leoxandar Thank you! I would if I could

TheMightyObsidianDude · February 14, 2017, 2:22am

Could you do the other toa too?

AIDY_the_BOOKLE · February 14, 2017, 2:23am

I will if I get the time!

TheMightyObsidianDude · February 14, 2017, 12:04pm

Sweet! Can’t wait for that!

Would it be possible to do a group pose with them like the 2001 poster, or would that be a bit much?

AIDY_the_BOOKLE · February 15, 2017, 10:36pm

That’s an excellent idea!

TheMightyObsidianDude · February 16, 2017, 2:57am

Thank you!

ThatchMac · February 16, 2017, 6:21pm

This looks absolutely fantastic. Awesome work.

Kahi · February 16, 2017, 10:55pm

Yours was one of the only ones to include a minifigure concept, and I love it! It’s exactly what I had in mind when Var showed me the Nexo Knights minifigures on the podcast. I love how you used existing armor for Lewa, and yet it meshes so well with the figure and how it looks.

I love minifigure design, so seeing this is incredible. I eagerly await more.

AIDY_the_BOOKLE · February 17, 2017, 3:01am

Wow, thank you so much, Jon! It’s really incredible to hear that from you. I’ve been really inspired by TTV and Brickfeed lately! I was away from LEGO for a few months and then you guys pulled me back in. it’s good to be back.

Drahcir_Nosnevets · February 17, 2017, 1:04pm

Coolio Schdoolio minifigure.

Spacenid · February 18, 2017, 4:49am

Someone please Do this on Shapeways!!!

TuragaDave · February 18, 2017, 6:23pm

If there was to be a system Bionicle, I’d love the figures to be something like this. Great job!

BioToa7 · March 3, 2017, 5:49am

I know I already offered to 3D model the certain parts for the other person’s tahu minifigure concept art but I can definitely do this also.

AIDY_the_BOOKLE · March 3, 2017, 6:57am

That’d be awesome! I’ve downloaded an app to do so myself but haven’t gotten around to it yet. The only piece that is new is the mask element. All of the other pieces are already available in other sets.
