Some artwork
 

One of the reasons I joined OWF was so I could put some of my pictures up here. I hope you like them.

The first is a picture of a Creetle, a species I made up. Like so many other species, Creetles were hunted to extinction by the Magog Cartle. Though they are officialy extinct, there have been rumors that small groups of them still live in the mountains, hiding away from the Sligs sent to hunt them. Although they look stiff-legged, Creetles are extremely agile and can climb almost sheer rock-faces, making life in the mountains easy. Their multiple mandibles and sharp teeth grab prey in a deadly grip that is imposible to escape. They are even more deadly than Scrabs, though anyone who dares to study these creatures will find that they are very social and extremely inteligent.

The second is a poster I made for 'Creetle Crunchies', Oddworld's favorite breakfast. The nugets are made from the exoskeletons of Creetles, filled with a jelly-like substance made from the ground-up flesh of Creetles. And if you are wondering what that blue liquid is, well it's Creetle blood mixed with a 'secret ingredient' to form a yummy syrup. I used the posters for 'Scrab Cakes', 'Paramite Pies' and 'Meech Munchies' for referance when making this.

The third is a Flying Scrab, again a creature I made up. Just like their cousins, Flying Scrabs are extremely vicous. Most live in the mountains but some migrated centuries ago to live on the vast plains of Mudos. They are often found in family groups, but sometimes a male may turn into a rouge and become solitary. They can be made into 'Scrab Cakes' like their cousins and their wing membranes can be turned into Glukkons' clothing. However they are rarely hunted (they hardly ever land, and they are difficult to shoot when flying), which makes them more numerous than regular Scrabs.

I ran out of space on the paper, so I had to cut the wings off half-way.

And the last is a picture of an Intern playing a Nintendo DS and listening to an iPod.

So tell me what you think of them please!

Awesome art! I like the flying Scrab the most. =D

Thanks, OddYouko! I must admit the flying scrab is probably my favorite as well.

Your flying scrabs is awesome! I find it very beautiful. For how many time do you draw?

Nice work you have here. Keep it up.

Even thought a creature of those dimensions could never fly, I want that scrab now! :p

Thanks everyone! And answering totor's question, I draw pretty much all the time. The flying scrab picture took about an hour to draw, then about two hours to colour using photoshop.

I like how you made your own creature. =P
I can't get over how good and awesome the flying Scrab looks.
Great art and hope to see more. :)

That's pretty neat. Keep it up!

Thanks for all the comments. Here are some more pictures!


I drew this Scrab a while ago. It was my first ever attempt and I think I got the legs a bit wrong but oh well.

Here is a Fleech. It isn't exactly an original picture an I bet you all know which one I based it on. It took me ages to get the skin detail looking right!

And here is a simple cartoon-style fuzzle. But for some reason my scanner made the outline go wierd so it isn't very good.

Enjoy!

Those are very good. I like the Scrab.
I can't even get the muscles right on the body.

The flying scrap is amazing i love it
it should be in a oddworld game, well done :fuzgrin:

I have some more art!

Here's how I imagine Queen Skillya, and as I described her in my fan fiction Shrown. The picture at the bottom is her from the side (I couldn't be bothered to colour it) and the egg-like things are Slig eggs.

Here's the same picture of Skillya, only inverted. I thought the colours look strange.

And here's another hue change, similar to the one before.

Well that's about all I have, apart from a load of Intern doodles from my science school book.

Cool! She seems totally Skillya-ish, and those colors rock. Swamp green is the new black.
...I like intern doodles. ^^

Wow! Those are so cool. I love you art. :D
I like the color on the last one.

Lol, thats rocking! Man, she needs to trim her nails! *giggles*

This is awsome. Seriously, this art is great and it even seems to have the Oddworld look in it! Love the Creetle, Flying Scrab and Skilya. There are all great.


Skilya is undetailed in the side view though. She just looks like a Slig attached to a misshapen baloon....

lol yeh I thought that too :p I was going to colour the side view picture but I didn't have time (and I couldn't be bothered). I'll try to get round to doing it though.

That's cute. I really like the blue (second one) slig. :D

Wow you're really talented. Excellent artwork.

The Intern with the DS is great!

Your pics are very good, keep them up and show us new stuff soon :D!!!

Finally a comment for my Intern!. Thank you!

I coloured the side-view of Skillya. I can't think of what to draw next so any ideas would be apreciated. (I was thinking of trying to draw a Luskan Maruader or a Sea Rex.)

I like it very much, but I can't understand what's behind the Slig...?

It's her artistic rendition of Skillya based on how it appears in her fanfic :).

I like it GD ^^.

Glad you like it. And that sack-thing behind her is her abdomen, the thing that makes the eggs. I was trying to make it similar to the pictures of Sam and Margeret.

EDIT: Damn, Wings of Fire beat me to it!

Oh thank you!!! Anyway it's beautiful, I love it :)!!!

-Pokes Skillya's abdomen- Can I have a Slig egg? :goof:
Hope to see more. :D

I wonder if you could paint the them, then use the eggs like Easter ones XD
Or make a pretty big Omlette. Yummies :D

I saw now your previous pics, and I must say that they aee fantastic!!! I like especially the Creetle Crunchies poster and the Flying Scrab!!!

Poor little sligies :(

OMG I finaly drew some more Oddworld stuff!

You like?

Coll art. I have your deviant on my watch list. :D

This is a very simple Slig, and I enjoy your simplicity! It's perfect.

Awesome Slig! :D
Can you color it too?

I was thinking of colouring it but I'm not sure if I should use photoshop or colouring pencils.

I think colouring it with pencils is a great idea!

Lawl. That's hawt. Keep it up! =D

Thanks for the comments. I'm working on colouring the Slig with pencils, but it's taking a while because I'm fussy and keep having to start again. But in the meantime...

Believe me, it looked better before I scanned it.

Cool Vykker!!! And the Intern's face too :D!!! Coloured would be great!!!
