Happy New Year

Today is the last day of 2016. We are finally at the end of such a disappointing year. Although, as we look ahead to whatever 2017 may hold, let's look back on this year and appreciate the good things, even if it looks like there were none.

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas of 2016, everyone! I hope everyone had a great day of Christ the Lord's birth. Glory to the Light of the World.

Anna: Chapter 9

The ninth chapter of my story Anna is out on the Anna Wiki. So check that out.

Minecraft Homestead

This is the first in my series of Minecraft-based MOCs made with the Crafting Box set. I'm dubbing this one "Homestead".

Toa Jovan Revamp

A revamp of a classic character who didn't have any storyline appearances and died long before the Toa Inika made their trek to Voya Nui, but has still become somewhat of a fan-favorite.

2016: The Year In Review

(Taken from my three year anniversary blog)

----

Let me get this out of the way: 2016 was terrible.

Alright, so to be fair, this year started off pretty good. We got the new BIONICLE wave, I had finished TAC1 the month before and I became an Administrator.

I also joined the TTV Message Boards to broaden my reading and MOCing audience and I've been there ever since.

In May I began writing my first-actually-produced non-BIONICLE story, Anna. Also in May I got the entire BIONICLE Summer wave early, woo.

And then I got into RWBY, and I have been hooked since and I can't believe I waited this long to watch it.

Then during the Summer I began suffering from some personal issues and still am.

Then, at the the end of Summer, BIONICLE got cancelled again which even worsened this year. I, however, finished Pushing Back the Dark, which was great.

This Fall I got back into the groove with my filming of TAC2 and am still working on it.

And earlier this month I became a Bureaucrat, finally. My plan of conquering the wiki is finally complete.

And here we are today.

Three Year CBW Anniversary

Today is my three year anniversary on CBW. Here's the blogpost:

Cheers.

The Shadowed One

The Shadowed One, leader of the Dark Hunters.

And his Staff of Protodermis.

I built this after looking at the pictures of the Shadowed One again recently and finding that it is a pretty... lackluster model for the supposedly feared leader of the Dark Hunters. I also built it to kind of match how I pictured him while reading BIONICLE Legends #4: Legacy of Evil recently.

Teleta

Teleta is a Toa who was created without Elemental Powers, yet has the colors of an Onu-Matoran, despite being a female. To compensate for her lack of power, she created her weapon with Elemental Crystals, made of the same substance that encases the Power Stones. With them she can create elemental blasts of whatever Elemental Crystal is currently being used.

She will be a main character in TAC4. Also in this photo shoot I decided to use my new black background that I will use alongside my white one.

Anna Launch

On Wednesday, September 28, 2016, I launched my new superhero story Anna. You may find chapter 1 at http://annastory.wikia.com/wiki/Volume_1#Chapter_1:_Breeze. Chapters will be released weekly on Wednesdays. On October 5, the TTV Message Boards will receive the last week's chapter, as part of the wiki getting early access to new chapters.

Havoc

Havoc was once a Ta-Matoran living in the Southern Island Chains when he was abducted by Makuta Mutran and was one of his first test subjects while he was creating the precursors to the Shadow Leech. The experiment went horribly wrong and the Ta-Matoran was mutated beyond recognition. He now had control over Fire and Shadow which were very destructive combined and bore a Great Shelek which was forged like a Hau.

He broke free of Mutran and fled. He was in the northern region of the island chains when he met the Dark Hunter Gladiator. After a brief confrontation, Gladiator realized that he would be a good recruit for the Dark Hunters and Gladiator offered to bring him to the Shadowed One. He complied and he was brought before the Shadowed One and was recruited into the organization. Having forgotten his original name, the Shadowed One gave him the name of Havoc, because of his destructive powers.

He now lives on Spherus Magna with the rest of the population of the Matoran Universe.

With this one I challenged myself to use only pieces that were available in 2001-2003.

September 11, 2016

Today is the fifteenth anniversary of the tragedy that was 9/11 in 2001. I don't know if you remember or if you were even alive when it happened, but I know that we can all feel the pain in our hearts for the tragic loss of those souls in the acts of evil committed then. Even through the pain we can find hope, though, the light in the dark.

May their souls forever rest in peace.

TAC2 Update 2

I know it's been nearly a year since I did one of these, and I intended to do many more, but I never got around to it. Production on the second Book of The Arker Chronicles does still go on, I've just had several setbacks this year from doing all I wanted to do.

I am currently on the sixth episode of the season, and am nearly done with it. Episode seven's production will begin as soon as six's is done. I am eager for this episode because it features tie-ins with Haunted Origins, which will also enter full production within the next week or so.

Order of Mata Nui Carrier

In the Fragmented Alternate Universe, the Order of Mata Nui developed these jet-like vehicles based on a design they found when they raided an Xian base.

It's standard flying position.

The energy thrusters.

Its energy cannons deployed.

Landed.

The design is heavily based on that of the Quinjet from the MARVEL Cinematic Universe films. This is a miniature model created for the second season of my stopmotion series The Arker Chronicles that will represent the actual thing.

Happy Birthday, BobTheDoctor27!

Happy birthday, old buddy.

Emphasis on the old.

Underground

Um... Cathy? These are the same...

Varderan

praise based var

My MOC of Varderan's Self-MOC. He is the CEO of the TTV Channel. I wish I had a black Kakama but sadly I don't, so I had to use my white one which I think works fine with it. Next up, Kahi.
