Getting a BIONICLE Face

The following MOC is from the many times commonly know Jinzoningen. I would say this is one of the best examples there exists that shows a Bionicle construction in a truly seemingly biological and realistic way.

The details(best seen on the partway-through-building images) are both very well managed as well as carefully crafted. Special attention should be noted on the mouth(made from various Bohrok bodypieces), as wel as the sequential construction on the top of the head. Although one could argue that this construction is mainly made with Technic connectors and pieces, it's its special usage of specific pieces that give it a justfull classification as a Bionicle construction, having both the usual flowing look of such and the unusual interweaving. Details best viewed on the side view image that shows the way the mask follows the lines of the face and head.
