Kopaka's Toa Weapon [Art] [3D Model] [Pitch]

[RAKRONDEWL]

@Jon

While I like the art and concept, I do think that the weapon’s colors would primarily clash with Kopaka’s color scheme and not contribute to a cohesive look for the character.

I think Kopaka’s current design needs the yellow to be switched to a light blue, because yellow is a warm color and doesn’t convey ice. This problem doesn’t really seem too big a deal until you try to make a set that shows him using ice.

This is a problem I have brought up in the cannon Toa designs topic.

@RAKRONDEWL

These all look excellent @IllustriousVar , but from a set prospective, I’m not sure the accents on all the Toa work. For example, Kopaka looks like he has yellow elemental energy flowing through him, this is a color associated with warmth and doesn’t convey ice. This is messing me up while trying to make sets as he looks out of place. Pohatu and Onua are the only two that work well when associating them with their elemental energy colors.
Thoughts?

Here is a recolor that I think fits better for Kopaka. Unfortunately the solution isn’t as simple for the other Toa.

@Jon

Additionally, the Nexo Knights sword is currently reserved for Tahu’s weapon.

I didn’t know this, that is unfortunate. I was going to design a new sword for Tahu as I didn’t think the Toa weapons were finalized.

@Jon

That being said, it’s a stellar concept, and I really do like how it looks, it just doesn’t fit the character I think you want it to.

Thank you for your compliments and time to look at my pitch, I guess we just seem to have two very different ideas of what we want Kopaka to be.
