After weeks Iām finally finished with my entry
To here today I present my interpretation of Artakha with my own design for the legendary mask of creation.
[Untitled326_20201016081554]
For this piece I did a bit of research regarding actual forging and blacksmiths so I decided that I wanted to draw Artakha in an authentic forge while creating the mask of light. However for the hammer I had to shrink it because sculpting a small piece of metal with a large warhammer was very impractical so I downsized it to that of a regular hammer like one you would find in your house. While sketching, the piece felt a little empty so I added some chains and a few easter eggs from Bionicle canon. I drew him holding the fiery hot avokhii with his bare hands because 1). It looked cooler and 2). I couldnāt draw him using a tong from that angle. As for tā¦

Also @Connor_Hoffman thank you for the opportunity, this was a challengingly wonderful MOC to artistically render in my style.

You have to create a new topic with (Meet the Maker) in the title to enter the contest. Then you must put a link to this topic, like all the other entries did.

Not sure if Iām supposed to reply here or in the original contest listing, so Iām posting it in both places. Here it is either way!
Well folks, hereās my entry for the art portion of Canon Contest #2: Meet the Maker!
[ARTakha]
For this piece, I really wanted to give it a more painted look. I felt like it felt the character of Artakha a bit more.
On that note, thatās also why I decided to portray Artakha mid-construction of the Toa Mata! I really wanted to emphasize the more creative, inventive side of the character, and I felt like recreating one of the most important moments in Bionicle history would be a good way to do that!
I decided to use KingKās Mask of Creation here, in part because thatās what @Connor_Hoffman originally used, but also because I genuinely think it looks perfect. A link to that mask can be found here: The Legendary Mask of Creation
As for the more technical details, this took about a month ā¦

Hello! In the eleventh hour, Iāve got my entry! I hope you like it!
Hey guys, here we are again with a character that Iāve been interested in drawing for some time, and with this contest Iāve had the perfect opportunity to do so!

Design
I was after a fashion expecting a MOC design similar to the winner. What I chose to do for my drawing is to prioritize having something cohesive yet having room for interesting deteails. This included adjusting the proportions of several components and for his stance and body language be more immediately readable - which is no small task considering the MOCās sheer bulk!
Some of these tweaks involved lengthening the arms and reducing the size of the legs to look much less bottom-heavy. Of course, also differentiating which āpartsā were organic or mechanical, though the MOC made that decision very simā¦

Is the time of closing this topic also the entry deadline? In other words, do we still have 13 hours to submit the entry? Asking for a friend.
