Theran Spirit Dragon Elder

Anyways, since I've been doing concept art for my alien species, I thought that it would be a good idea to draw some pictures of my Theran species as well. This critter in particular is a Drakken'Re (AKA Theran Spirit Dragon). The fully developed plates on the neck and arms mark this one as an older dragon, which is where the title comes from. Full description of this species can be found under more info.

I did this while I was bored during a new Biology lecture.

I knew Zora would beat that one stupid blonde chick. I wish that I could get a million dollars just for lying to a bunch of people... **looks around devillishly** ...hmmmmm....

"It's tickle-time, baby! HAHAHAHA!!!!" Tetra gives Ulario a big surprise!

Character sketch of my new mantis character, Tier Nvonny.

Note to self: Multiple armed things are cool!

Trying my hand at some more Japanese stuff.

I was finally able to do a picture of Tirya Spiritsong, my Furcadia character. She's a wandering dream interpriter/ fortune teller.

Well, for my BFA Art Safety & Management class I have to put together a slide presentation of my work in March, which means I'm going to have to bust my butt to make a few more pictures to put in my show. :/

Anyways, character sketch of Tod, my caracal/panther hybrid character. He's not really a new character, he's been floating around in my head for a while now, but this is the first time I've actually put him down on paper.

Random cat girl in a tree. :)

I was experamenting with several different water effects in this picture, and what better person to be drawn in the rain then my nautolan character.

A quickie. Trying to get used to coloring with my new 'puter.

Blah

An experament with a leopard pattern I made earlier.

Trick or Treat - 2007

My annual picture of some of my characters in their Halloween costumes.

(See if you can guess who they're supposed to be before reading further)

From Left To Right...

Ulario Zemothe as Lara Croft. I decided to leave her hair down rather then braid it because she looked kinda funky with it braided. Also, I don't think her boobs are nearly big enough to be Lara.

Aredon Bredrit as King Leonidas. Okay, so I admit it. I've been wanting to dress him in Spartain threads ever since I first saw 300... which was the first day it came out in Theatres last March.

Tudyk Lyecera as the Noid. (Quoting Family Guy) Perhaps it was the Noid that should have avoided me!

Experamenting with another human/theran relationship. I chose Reese and Aredon, because I thought they'd be an interesting, very athletic couple. This was just me playing aroung, so ignore the odd hand. LOL.

Head concept for Tudyk the phoenix/tiger gryphon. I will probably end up doing a full body concept drawing of him as well.

He's named after Alan Tudyk, the actor who played Hoben "Wash" Washburne in firefly/serenity. (Yeah, I'm kinda cheesy like that )

This picture was done as a gift for my boyfriend.

Happy Holidays to you no matter which one you celebrate.

Ulario Jumps on the Bandwagon

I've seen many people on DeviantArt doing these, and I decided that I wanted one too.

It came out okay considering the fact that I HAD NO FLIPPIN' CLUE HOW TO MAKE PIXEL ART... and as a matter of fact, I still don't.

The full bodied pixel image of Ulario was done in MS paint, primarily but I did do a few touch ups with the shading in Photoshop to make it look prettier. The background pictures are ones that I had previously made.

Quickie of a prancing unicorn.

If you don't know what a varactyl is, you will when star wars episode 3 comes out. A varactyl is a species native to the planet Utapau. In the movie, Obi Wan has on as a pet.

I thought the species was interesting looking, so I wondered what it would look like if I made an Antro varactyl. I tried to get this done before the movie came out because I knew that after it did there will probably be an overabundance of star wars fan art, and I wanted to be one of the first. LOL.

She'd make an interesting character if she wasn't a copyrighted species.

Vellux the cockatrice. A strange creature that is half chicken-half reptile that can turn people to stone.

My were-raven monk D&D character shown in both his anthropomorphic and elven forms.

Wild Thang!

Personal art for a change. I started working on the line art while I was bored out of my mind because I couldn't access my laptop (Broken AC Adaptor). It was colored VIA two different sessions, one last night and one early this morning.

It's my character, Sylvan the lion/lynx/dragon hybrid. I love strange hybrid characters. They seem to make the fandom more interesting.

The Way the Wind Blows

"We can only grow the way the wind blows
On a bare and weathered shore.
We can only bow to the here and now
In our elemental war.

We can only grow the way the wind blows.
We can only bow to the here and now
or be broken down blow by blow."
--From "Where the Wind Blows" by Rush


I've been working on this guy for a while. For the most part he's been sitting on my computer for the past few weeks and I've been working on him in bits and pieces in between working on other pictures. I had a certain picture in my head of what his markings should look like and getting them to actually look like that was a pain in the butt... but I think it's time to say that I'm finished with him.

I am rather pleased with how he came out.

Most modern fantasy artists don't put wings on their hippocamps. In reality, back in the day a lot of hippocamps were winged... especially the ones that decorated ships.
