Wings of Fire 03-02-2008 02:05 PM

FINALLY! :) Been looking forward to this :D Very well done, an excellent piece of work :( but I can't help feel sorry for the poor saber.

Moosh da Outlaw 03-02-2008 04:40 PM

Awesome! And sad. But well done anyway ;D

Matriar 03-03-2008 03:49 PM

Thanks, guys! :)

Now for something random, which might be funny just because of that:

Moosh da Outlaw 03-04-2008 02:56 PM

Lol. :D
It would've been really funny if you had made it a teacup poodle called Fifi. xD

Alf Shall Rise 03-04-2008 06:42 PM

Great, as always. Those pages were full of sorrow, which made it absolutely perfect. Congrats.

If he would have been a poodle, the bigger version wouldn't have been very frightening. :lol:

New picture!

Kana's First Prey


http://fc01.deviantart.com/fs28/f/20...Underwoods.jpg

Baby Kana...
Yes, I can draw babies! It scares the hell outta me though...

The story of The Priestess will not only show what happens to Kiho, but also the whole life of Kiho's little half-brother from birth till... death. I guess.
So I had to include the baby part. It's also a good chance to show what the father-son-relationship between Adahy and Kana was like.

This picture is about a scene after Kana was given to his father for the next few weeks:

Adahy returned to his cave and saw his son running around. It seemed that Kana chased something. Adahy stepped closer to him to see what was going on and found out that Kana just caught a lizard. Kana grinned happily at his dad (like this) and said "Look father, I made my first prey!" expecting an good answer from him.
But Adahy just looked at the dead thing between Kana's teeth with a frowning face and didn't say a thing.
"I hunted and killed it all by myself!", Kana said proud, still expecting an answer, "Soon I'm gonna be a great carnivore, just like you!"
Adahy looked in his son's eyes very seriously.
"This is just a small lizard.", he said cold.
Kana noded, but didn't lose his happy mood, "Yeah, I know. But it's my first prey!"
"Maybe. However, it is still a small lizard."
"Yes, yes. It is. It's just... I mean that-"
"Kana!", Adahy's voice started to sound dangerous, "It's a small, weak lizard and a quite ridiculous prey for a real hunter!"
Kana's smile disappeared, still having his dead prey between the teeth. He was quiet.
"It's nothing more than that and will never be!", Adahy said, turned around and left.
Kana let his prey fall down and looked at it. A moment of silence.
Then he ate his first prey without saying a word.


Kana has always admired his father for that Adahy was the biggest and stongest carnivore in the world (Kana's world, that is). Too bad, this will be the reason why Adahy is going to be his worst enemy.


Oh, and the stone ground is nothing more than a wrinkled-up paper that I scanned and edited. :)
Neat trick, huh?

Matriar 03-07-2008 09:04 PM

Oh no, another random thing!

Very good art! And the comics are great! Keep everything here up :D!!!

Moosh da Outlaw 03-19-2008 08:26 AM

Run, Max, run! :O

Matriar 03-19-2008 01:17 PM

Thanks, guys! :D

Woo, 3Dish art!


That's my part of a collaboration exchange with Alector, in which we color the lineart of each other.
This is the first time I did a collaboration,
*crosses arms* and I wanted to top the amazing work she has done for me! http://fc03.deviantart.com/fs30/f/20...ctorFencer.jpg D:<

I can show off too!

Doing 3D-ish art pretty cool, actually. I just don't do it very often because it takes freaking long... K]
By the way, nothing is copied and pasted! So. Absolutely. Nothing.
I drew all these feathers separately. Much artist's love.
In fact, it took me so much love that I got painful heart attacks many times. >_<

You can guess why I put lots of watermarks on it.


I really like brown-orange-black-red tone. And mountains. Now I miss my country...


Anyway, hope you like it!

OH MY GOD.
I HATE YOU AND YOUR SKILLS.
I'M SO FRICKIN' JEALOUS.
:fuzmad::fuzmad:

Matriar 03-20-2008 10:12 PM

That's one of the nicest compliments I've ever heard! ^^

Matriar 03-24-2008 09:08 AM

Kiho, which will play one of the main roles in my comic The Priestess.

EDIT: Added another picture I've just finished.

Creepy Doc 03-28-2008 06:41 AM

Very nice! I like them both. Can't wait to see your comic. :D

Matriar 03-29-2008 08:18 AM

Thanks, dude! Always happy to get comments about my art! ^^

Moosh da Outlaw 03-30-2008 09:50 AM

Dude.
That's hot.
o.o;;


Btw when will you start posting your comic?

Matriar 03-30-2008 05:09 PM

I'll start my comic when I got all the storyboards done. It's getting closer. :)

Creepy Doc 04-03-2008 10:17 AM

When do you start drawing something oddworld again, anyway? You didn't just stop doing it at all, did you?

OddYouko 04-03-2008 10:29 AM

Wow! Those are awesome! :eek:
Beautiful work.

abe is now! 04-04-2008 11:04 AM

I like especially the third last pic, now it's my desktop!!! Keep everything here up :)!!!

Alf Shall Rise 04-10-2008 06:41 PM

This doesn't need repeating, but yet, I do. You are truly awesome.

Hm, currently I work for non-oddworldish stuff. But I did not forget about my favorite game, I do have some undone sketches and ideas on my to do list.

ALRIGHT, new art! Finally, it's done. Took me many days.
It's Alector's character.

GlacierDragon 04-11-2008 09:00 AM

Great pic! Looks a bit like a griffin.

Matriar 04-12-2008 09:38 AM

That's because it is a griffin. :lol:

Thanks!

Mojo 04-13-2008 12:45 PM

I like the little fish on the left of the first pic with all them doodles, Strangers Maid. Could you work that out?

Also, I really love all them Impish characterz. Theyse funneh!

Matriar 04-14-2008 08:44 AM

I don't really plan to work out doodle characters. I already got too many other things on my list but I do appreciate that you like that fish! :D

What impish characters? From which picture?

OddYouko 04-16-2008 11:42 AM

Wow great picture!
It's so beautiful. Love your art. =D

Matriar 04-22-2008 02:17 PM

Thank you very much, OddYouko! :happy:

Okay, this is not exactly art with characters in it, but I currently work for a journal design on my account on www.GloomyUnderwoods.deviantart.com which is a site in which I and other artists submit our artworks.

I needed a kinda host, so I'm gonna misuse this forum now. :)

Matriar 05-03-2008 09:40 PM

Recently, I had a blast from the past.

I totally miss that cartoon now.

Moosh da Outlaw 05-04-2008 04:02 AM

Its Darkwing Duck!
Man, I used to hate that show, but now that I think about it I kind of liked it. Awesome work, as usual. :D

Alf Shall Rise 05-04-2008 07:26 AM

I loved that show. Used to watch a video I had of it every day. Great job.

Matriar 05-10-2008 10:56 AM

Thank you very much for your comments. :)
It's always nice to hear when people enjoy my art.

Adahy, one of my characters. I restyled quite a lot, coloring style and parts of his look and anatomy.
The other pictures are things I need for a journal design on an art site account. I needed a host... so yeah.

EDIT: New banner!

Wings of Fire 05-10-2008 11:09 AM

Stunning as always :) I love the colouring on the mane.

Matriar 05-12-2008 09:25 AM

The mane was the worst part to color. Good to hear that you like it! :)

OddYouko 05-13-2008 09:18 AM

Those last three are really good too. :)
How long have you been drawing? Cause those are all really good.

Matriar 05-13-2008 09:28 AM

Thank you, OddYouko! :)

The pencil sketch for the Adahy picture took me about an hour, I think. Drawing the lineart on Photoshop probably took me around three to four hours or so (I'm picky with lines, and work with big sizes too). The coloring... hm, in this case it was the longest part because I tried out a few coloring styles before I decided to leave it the way you see here. Probably, it took around six hours, but I don't know.

I should check the time when I do art now that I think about it. Sorry, I can't give good answers.

The things I needed for journal design are made with arts which were already done, I only added and changed few things about it. This took less than an hour.

used:) 05-13-2008 05:16 PM

I never really checked out your art before, but I think this stuff is pretty neat! :)

I really like the animal character. It looks kind of like a manticore/horse hybrid.

Yea...it kinda does actually...

Nevertheless, it's spectacular.
