Thanks for the feedback. First of, I should update these photos. The Hau when I took that photo did still have a bit of the red showing through, giving varying shades of blue as a result. The second coat of paint more or less corrected that.

The Toa of water is partially based on Tollubo, the legs at least. Though I tried to change them a little by putting those black pieces (not sure what they're called) round the ankles and large tires and Inika thigh armor on the upper legs. The name is Maya, a real name but a fairly uncommon one (I was lacking inspiration) and is the Toa in my entry to the V Osade writing contest.
