After a tragic layoff, an unfortunate cancellation and a brief couple months of uncertainty, I’m overjoyed to say the canon contests are finally back - sort of. While canonization is now off the table, as a community we can at least chose which image of Tuyet we would’ve wanted as canon. We can still have this huge show of craftsmanship and creativity. And honestly, that’s good enough for me.
Tuyet is often described as insane and obsessive, yet deceptive and kind. She served with Lhikan for thousands of years before eventually betraying him. She was the most trusted Toa Mangai, yet ultimately the most deceitful. Tuyet is a complex character who took on many roles from a traitor to a zombie to a warlord. This depiction of Tuyet can represent every role she had. Her unsettling lanky limbs are physical manifestations of her unhealthy obsessive tendencies towards the Nui Stone. Her triangular chest and domineering figure make Tuyet realistic as an empress. Yet her rounded shoulders and soft edges give her the appearance of a friend.
This build is simple, yet aims to depict Tuyet in a realistic and meaningful way. I encourage you to check out my instructions if you’re curious about the build. I’m also providing the.io file. Feel free to mess around with it if you feel so inclined. Just note it is missing part 63149.
I like really really like this, the asthetic of the whole build is just perfect for me. I just feel you have captured something in this build that I haven’t really seen yet. It looks just like a build out of the metru era for me. I will definetly be voting for this
