Vohayu

I am reliably informed by the various Bionicle wikis that Toa of Lighting come in a blue and white colour scheme. This build is essentially entirely based on that being the case.

 

I decided to give her the Mask of Quick-Travel because 1) that kind of fits and 2) it's a damn cool looking mask, and that gave me the gold centre to the model, around which I build with blues that would be distinct from Gali's primary blue. I made a choice to work the white in at the extremities and I think the result works. I'm wondering now if the black connectors on the thighs were a mistake, but until they come in medium azure, I think I'm stuck with them.

 

The lantern is an aspect of the build I'm particularly pleased with, since it just looks great and poses nicely. I went with that because I've always liked the idea of Toa having tools rather than weapons (the big honking guns got old very fast for me). I've tried to follow that idea for most of my made-up Toa builds.
