Description The youngest in mind, the Toa of Air embodies all that his element suggests.  He is the most adaptable to change, the most acrobatic, the lightest in heart.  Wearing a mask that grants him the power of Levitation, he is able to save himself most of the time his head also begins demonstrating air-like properties.

As can be inferred, this took longer to complete because the background is much more involved than past portraits of the Toa Mata I've done so far.  Pretty much it was the only way to effectively get across the hovering granted by his Miru, but it was also really fun to try to render the horizon and misty sunset/sunrise of Aqua Magna.  Bonus points to you for finding the easter egg that proves the location and timeframe of the setting, if do end up finding it out.

Lewa was beyond angry. The Tahnok had struck without warning, burning through the jungles of Le-Wahi. Now, they were nearing Le-Koro. Oh, how livid the Toa of Air was! Even Tahu would have quailed at Lewa's wrath. He sighted the nearest of the Bohrok. "Hey, firespitters! Time to go crash-bang!" The Tahnok looked up to the treetops to see a green blur falling, his axe prepared for a brutal swing.

well, i can see the red-star in the background, so it's on the island of Mata Nui before or during the original Bohrok Crisis.

Thank you for the experienced feedback (I guess that's how I should put it, since you've drawn the same character before :b). About the lack of detail, these portraits of the Toa are all serving me the purpose of practicing something new since I can now do almost anything under the sun with digital art. Lewa here I was practicing the background mostly, trying to render their world how I saw it.

Yeah, I'm actually getting a little worried about how the first ones will look compared to the last ones.

I wouldn't worry about it too much, personally I think the quality is fairly consistent across them all so far.

Ah...so cooool...I like the way time you draw that brief time between night and day; such pretty sky and scenery! Lewa, so sneaky sneak! I'm getting spoiled with all this cool fanart of my favorite fandom, Bionicle!

Hey don't worry about being spoiled, I love bionicle too. I mean, it's taken up about half of my years growing up -- doesn't that make it important to all of us?

It's Onua or Gali now, before I start doing any other characters that belong to different teams.

I've always had a fondness of Onua. If I recall, he was the first Toa I bought with my own money.
But on the topic of Lewa, he was really rare when I was young -- so rare, in fact, that we heard rumors of people having to import him from Korea.

Wow, I can say I have -never- heard of that problem before. I got one of him at the time, but also 2 Kopakas and 2 Galis. I attribute that problem to adults asking the wrong questions to me, asking "what's your favorite color, stoopid?" instead of "which color don't you have yet? You better not make an addiction out of these!" Yeah, basically.

It may have just been a rumor. I know one of my bro's friends got hers that way.
