Sweet! I've said this before, but, I just love the teeth.

Thank you!

Now for something rather dark. I mean, darker. ^^

The Girl With The Muzzle. She's a character of mine too. I haven't drawn her for a while and it feels good to do it again.

In this picture, she's touching her pet the first time who always stood by her side in the many years she was chained in the prison (where she still is). But then the Muzzlegirl has to notice that he feels like... air.
Guess, she doesn't want to realize it.
I mean, imagine that. She was alone the whole years and nobody cared about her. Still, it seems that nobody does.
At least, her pet is an illusion that keeps her from driving mad...

There will be a colored version soon.

That's interesting, I like it a lot. Does she have like a mask on that prevents her from talking?

Matriar · #**454** 10-05-2007, 10:27 AM

Thanks.
Yes, it's a muzzle. She can't speak, talk or even eat with that at all.

Hulaabeo · #**455** 10-05-2007, 04:54 PM

Thats kinda dark (WTF)

Matriar · #**456** 10-07-2007, 04:22 AM

Yup. That's because I love drawing dark stuff. :]

I lately watched Pans Labyrinth. Ah, what a bittersweet movie.
Though, I expected this guy here to appear more times in those two hours. Oh, well.

Wow, was it hard for me to draw something about "real people" for a change since the movie itself is not a cartoon but a story with actors. With damn good customes and stuff, heh. There was only a few things made by computer. I guess, it was only the fairies that Pan carried around.

But it was worth drawing that instead of cartoon characters. I learned a lot.

Still, I think that need a bit more practice I'm not quite satisfied enough with how his head turned out. It looks a liiiittle bit more round in the original. But I noticed that when I was finished. So, too late.

Speaking of anatomy: Yes, he does hold the knife like that in the movie! His long fingers are as weird as his legs.
And I forgot to get a reference where I could see his feet. That's why you can't really see them here.

Oh, the date is actually not that correct too. Heh heh, I drew this from October 6th evening to October 7th in the morning till 3 am. ^^
That's why my parents would probably have freaked out if they caught me going to the computer and printing out more references when I usually should get some sleep already.

Pan is pretty hard to draw for beginners.

Those are pretty creepy...I like it.

Here's a picture about a brandnew story of mine. The title of the story is "Force Of The Machines".

If you want to have closer information about the characters and stories, go to http://gloomyunderwoods.deviantart.c...hines-66975321 and read my artist's comment under the picture. It's a kinda long description.

dripik_12 · #**459** 10-10-2007, 06:22 AM

oh I wasn't here for a long time! o_O Anyways! As I said really creative idea!

I like how the characters looks like and the story is just so "dark" XD Can't wait to see more pictures about em!

Alf Shall Rise · #**460** 10-10-2007, 05:26 PM

I've realized some of those characters were in your boredom sketches. I really like Sevigill, awesome job.

Matriar · #**461** 10-11-2007, 05:58 AM

Thank you very much.

I love to read your comments about my art. That's the only way to find out what you guys think of it.

Hulaabeo · #**462** 10-15-2007, 01:15 PM

The scenary reminds me of the movie Independance Day.......

Matriar · #**463** 10-16-2007, 03:54 AM

Think so? Why?

Hulaabeo · #**464** 10-16-2007, 03:58 AM

They look like they destroyed the city.

Matriar · #**465** 10-17-2007, 03:31 AM

Nah, they didn't. It's only the background.

Matriar · #**466** 10-21-2007, 02:03 AM

I was out for a walk in the woods. Since it's autumn now, almost every tree were loosing the leaves.
I wondered why they had to.

...must be a kinda tree striptease! 8D

That's what trees are like when nobody's looking...

Why did I come up with this anyway? 0_o

Currently, my computer doesn't allow me to make colored stuff since... the computer I use is just a piece of crap, okay?

Sorry for those simple pencil sketches... but hope, you'll enjoy. I had the folowing idea in mind a long time ago.

If there's somebody who wonders about this question, here's the answer!

abe is now! · #**473** 11-01-2007, 07:04 AM

Very good comics.... I love this kind of comics, because the man lose!

Alf Shall Rise · #**474** 11-02-2007, 03:49 PM

New picture! Scorpiontigers fightin'! (I called Adahy's species like that.)

Will hopefully be colored soon.

This is a scene in The Priestess, a story of mine.
And I finally got a name for Adahy's species. Scorpiontiger! (Wow, ain't I just creative?! Well, it's better than any complicated name.)

This scene happened when Kana still was a kid living together with his dad (the left creature here) and where suddenly (really, totally unexpected) was another scorpiontiger being close to Adahy's cave.

You know, the scorpiontiger's way is: if you get in another one's territory, it means that you want to own it. Which means, you got to fight with the owner. And now comes the part why scorpiontigers are the most feared creatures: they kill each other very cruel in such battles. They wouldn't even give the chance for their rivals to run away from it...
And when they win, they don't eat the losers too. Other animals would eat the corpses that are left. Scorpiontigers never do. It's just their way.

The funny thing is that they never show any kind of weakness in their expressions, even if they'd know that they're not strong enough to win the fight. Scorpiontigers are a very proud species.

However, Kana (who was a half-scorpiontiger) watched this fight very confused.
Adahy was, as always, a highly aggressive enemy. After he won, he returned to his cave as if nothing happened. His son looked long at the lacerated scorpiontiger on the ground and, after a long while, he went to his father and asked him why he didn't kill him quickly as he usually does with all his preys. Adahy answered him that this is the way of his species to do so if there's a rival to be killed.
All rivals must pay for their fault to revenge someone of their own kind. (Especially if it's someone stronger.)

I kinda feel sorry for the loser of this fight. He was so young...

...

oh, and the other picture is just doodles I did to let out stress. x]

Alf Shall Rise · #**476** 11-05-2007, 12:08 PM

Wow that's intense. Did you know that I love their teeth?

And the doodle is once again...uh...weird, but funny.

Matriar · #**477** 11-08-2007, 11:16 AM

Thank you!

Ya, these teeth are awesome.

Arxryl · #**478** 11-08-2007, 07:32 PM

JiminEE! Those look very good! It's been a while since I've seen your art, but alas, it has not lost it's unique style or grace.

Matriar · #**479** 11-16-2007, 12:23 PM

Wow, thank you very much!

I like how subtle the difference in features is between the ages. Very nice touch!
