This is my entry for Duckbricks’ Community Fanon Contest #10: Toa Zaria - Yesterday Quest: Part Three.
There’s not a lot known about Zaria’s personality, so my main source of inspiration was his debut quote (as seen in the title). I imagine him to be a dependable, aloof and stubborn, kinda like a mixture of Kopaka and Onewa.
His posability is somewhat limited, but I’d say it’s enough to put him in convincing poses (You wouldn’t expect a rather bulky Toa of Iron to be limber now, would you?)
The posable fingers and thumbs also add a lot expression me thinks.
Turns out that Galva’s Mask of Adaptation V2 fits really well, so I guess I’m joining that Zaria bandwagon.
Did you know that this is version 6.1 of my Zaria design? I posted my first design here almost 3 years ago! Feel free to check out the previous 6 designs below, and don’t be afraid to admit if you prefer a previous design
Yeah, definitely feels this way. Not with the torso, but with the torso-leg relative size, the legs fall just slightly short. Especially since the arms are of a more moderate relative size to the torso. Not helped by the added bulk to the leg bottoms and hand size.
But this is awesome all around. My Stud.io is being wonky with downloads right now so I can’t investigate, is that heart light a built-in rod piece, or is it just temporary for the photos?
Overall, I am really happy to see such great builds with this contest, so many great proportions outside of the big-beefy weirdness. Thank you for contributing to the awesomeness pool. Good luck.
