Monochrome Monday... Te Whare Karakia o Ōnuku, near to Akaroa, South Island, NZ A shot from our visit to Akaroa last year. The weather was really miserable that evening, but I couldn't help taking this shot of Te Whare Karakia o Ōnuku from the roadside as I drove past. The foundation stone for the whare karakia was laid in 1876, and the building officially opened in 1878 as the first non-denominational church in New Zealand and was intended as a place of worship for both Māori and Pākehā. Ōnuku is a place of historical significance as it was the first of three locations (the others being Ōtakou and Ruapuke) in the South Island where Te Tiriti o Waitangi (The Treaty of Waitangi) was signed in May 1840.

Ōnuku... Located 5km from Akaroa... Ōnuku is a place of historical significance as the first of the three locations (the others being Ōtakou and Ruapuke) in the South Island where Te Tiriti o Waitangi (Treaty of Waitangi) was signed. Two local Maori Chiefs, Iwikau and John Love (Hone) Tikao signed the Treaty at Ōnuku. Ōnuku Marae was fittingly, the site where in 1998, the then Prime Minister Jenny Shipley presented the Crown Apology to Ngāi Tahu — the final stage in the settlement of Te Kerēme (the Ngāi Tahu Claim). Directly across the harbour from Ōnuku Marae stands the distinctive Tuhiraki (Mt Bossu), shrouded in low cloud in this pic. This peak is said to have been formed when the Ngāi Tahu explorer Rākaihautū thrust his kō (digging stick) into Horomaka after using it to dig out all the principal lakes of Te Wai Pounamu including nearby Te Roto o Wairewa and Te Waihora.

BAS - Sketch Dump

This was just a single part of a massive sketch dump I did a little while ago over on Deviantart. A good part of these were rough sketches I intended to submit to the Bionicle Art Squad, but never quite finished. Includes Vamprah and Krika in the top left for Week 15: Design a Makuta, Eliminator (top right) and an OC Dark Hunter, Arrowhead (bottom left) for Week 7: Design a Dark Hunter, and a Baterra (right center) from Week 25: Bara Magna. Also shown are some Bohrok concepts (top center), a concept for the Battle for the Golden Mask (center), a Nui Rama (left center), and a doodle from Corpus Rahkshi, a BZPower Text-based RPG.

BAS #35 - Arkhevai MOC Art

Finally something current...

When Infrared posted his Toa Arkhevai over on Flickr, I suddenly had the urge to draw him. The color scheme was interesting and vibrant, the concept was very cool, and the techniques used in the build, especially the torso, contributed to a very unique aesthetic. And I was pretty proud of it. And then the Bionicle Art Squad announced their 35th challenge: MOC Art, and I happily submitted him.

BAS #8 - Irnakk Line Art

Bionicle Art Squad’s eighth challenge was  this lovely fellow, Irnakk. Terror of the Skakdi, King of Nightmares, and just all around one bad guy. I was sure to make him big enough to live up to his reputation, and of course covered in lots of spikes. The lineart is really rough and dirty because I was intending to color it digitally with plenty of fancy lighting, but... never got around to it. Again.
