heehee! cool emoticons! anyway, obviously by now you know that their are twelve nui but you don't know that each nui is represented on the islands by twelve mythical animals. 1:gakali = pala-hui (aquatic bird looks like a combo of a stingray and a pheonix.) 2:taoka= kukokui(red turtle that lives in the magme pits of the mangaii volcano, it's shell looks like a boulder because of the immense heat warping it to it's rocky appearance.some infernavikava build their nests ontop of this creatures shell. 3:kolkan= naulta( this ice bear has immense claws that can chop through ice in seconds,it's white fur allows it to hide in the snow while it waits for it's prey. 4:leka= kigau-riga(this large snake has been recorded to grow to nearly 90meters in length! it's ability to blend in with it's surroundings helps it find prey. this snake is the only snake in the universe of bionicle to have teeth, [74 fangs all together]) ------ that's all for now, I'll tell you the rest once I complete the rest of the nui series . ~otuha

Yup, I thought we'd need some better ones. Are you going to make mocs of pala-hui, kukokui and the other animals?
You really improved with Leka, Her legs look much better then some of the other Nui's.
Hm.. Dislikes.. Maybe the hands, bohrok feet don't go really well for hands.

I got some new ideas lined up for the nui and as for the animals ,so far I have gakali's bird: pala-hui finished. but I won't be showing it till I get the next three nui's and the animals built. I gotta make some more kanohi too, since I don't have any new gunmetal colors, other than rose,stoneblue, and umm,... one other that I didn't name yet(it's a green color)

Those are cool. I liek the nui of ice and the nui of air best. One question, how do you make your molds? What do you use to create them? Im getting into molding and would liek to know because those look just like lego made them.

Im getting into molding and would liek to know because those look just like lego made them. the molds I made from like this putty stuff I fixed it around the mask let it dry over a couple nights, then cracked it open to get the piece out, then I just fill the imprint of the piece with melted plastic(or metal,I made some vaccuum metal krana kal once) and let it cool,take the piece out and whallah! a new bionicle piece! I tried to make the legs more posable and more wolf-like(kolkan's secondary stage is a wolf, I just didn't have the energy to transform the moc for pics) ~otuha
