Clare's Bionicle Page

Gali

Gali was always my favorite of the Toa Mata, but they're all very lovable. I went for a G1 but modernized sort of look, trying to preserve her silhouette while adding articulation.

Pridak

I love all the barraki, so here's a pridak revamp! He has digitigrade legs because I am a furry. Reddit didnt like him bc they aren't ready for sexy Pridak Who Fucks. Also they're chuds and they hurt my feelings. I do very much wish i could draw thick barraki like the fan art I've seen.

Also I kinda thought the original pridak was a bit hunched, and that he'd be more of an agile fighter than a heavy bruiser. So, the build is supposed to lean towards thin athletic. Also double tail!!! how handsome.

Vuwkara

I have a soft spot for Vortixx. They've edgy as shit and from a weird part of Bionicle's story, but also? Tall cool women.

Anyway - I miss my childhood roodaka dearly, she was a pretty solid titan. But I was always embarassed at the giant rahkshi tits, and as an adult I feel pretty much the same. Bionicles having less gendered bodies is a happy accident, really. So I had to go with a flat chest plate instead of boob armor.

I made a rough version of Vuwkara in stud.io, then made a bunch of revisions after a few bricklink orders. I'm happy with her as-is, but might swap her eyes to a trans-orange. The crossbow also went through a few attempts, unfortunately it's nonfiring. I had a few stud launcher designs but they were unweildy.

Lore

The Vortixx are weapon traders, and Vuwkara acts as a supply chain intermediary. Therfore she's fairly well travelled,having seen a fair chunk of the Matoran universe and it's inhabitants. She's "soft" for a vortixx. Vuwkara is naturally distrusting of course, as all Vortixx are prone to. However, she has found herself opening up after centuries of dealing with other, less repressive civilizations. Also she has a Ga-Matoran girlfriend she met in her travels :)
