Cyber Lewa

I wanted to create something that remembers the old style of Bionicle design language (visible pistons & gears etc), yet incorporates recently popular aesthetic choices like vaporwave/synthwave.

So, this set combines the nostalgia of 2001 Bionicle, with the nostalgia of the synth/vaporwave movement, whilst giving Lewa a refreshing new look as well.

The choice to make him turquoise instead of green mostly just comes from my love of the colour, but it also pops really well with the trans-neon-lime highlights. Finding the right pieces to use, whilst still keeping to existing piece colours, was a really fun challenge.
