Haam-Gallah (Bird Concept)

L: And this concept is smoothly becoming a canon…

This bird magically filled the hole in the tCoL plot. It was a tiny hole, but important indeed xD

Weird place

F: And animation for this mysterious scene is completed! We have already revealed the rough animation and concepts of it to you earlier ~

Birbs Concept

L: I had a hard month of art-block and lack of time, but it’s finally over (I hope). Grimm and me are on dacha: everyday we walk in the woods and the fields, talking about the tCoL plot and discussing characters, creating new concepts and rethinking old ideas. And also playing in Monster Hunter Stories 2 👀 Well, it’s i...

More Final Roui concept

L: Now Roui has more Final Route concepts now! Which of them do you like most and why?

Crisis

👀

Two facts about Kariom

L: I don’t remember if we ever posted it xD

Sketches

L: Some tCoL sketches! Read captions~

Summer~

Hello again, guys! We are alive and slowly working, as we mentioned in the previous posts.
So we do have some new content to share with you, including the new music for Act 3 of tCoL, assorted sketches, and animation! We will be posting some of these today and later during July.
Thank you all for your support and for st...

Matrie concepts!

Some lore about Elbalyamians~

Summer news

ENG
Dear friends!

The last months were rich in a variety of events for our team, so we did not manage to work as hard and productive as we did in the pre-release weeks. We understand that you want to know how Roui's story continues asap, but we ask you to wait a bit. We need some rest - from the long...

Juny's tail - [DONE]

And it's finished!

Tsourai Clans

L: A small reference for tsourai clans: who is who and what are they doing (:
First of all, all clans are ruling by the Queen or the King. They have their own elite, the knights, who look totally different from tsourai of their clan (sualokins’ knights are calling Cefeids, etc).
Every clan are mastering its own Craf...

Black Pilgrim

ENG
G: Sometimes, we go back to our personal characters from the Shang-La universe, which have nothing to do with tCoL. And since we have been reading a lot about ancient culture lately, I suddenly wanted to design Black Pilgrim's human form. 👀
I sketched a portrait of him (top right), and Lins just played with it an...

New bg + animation finding

G: I, Lins, and Fjo are working on the stuff for upcoming tCoL materials, so this is one of those new backgrounds. This time it will have an animated smoke in it, to add a mysterious, magical feeling. The smoke will be colored with smooth transitions of blue shades so that the smoke looks almost like a light veil fading in th...

Meschent

G: Just a small gift for Lins <3 

Raakel eating (unfinished animation)

ENG 

Here is the idea for Raquel's sprite animation, which we left unfinished.

F: I sketched this animation when I first became a member of The Broken Horn team and got involved in the project. At that time, we were just thinking of more complex animations to add to the game. There were a lot of different pla...

A Farewell Dinner (WIP)

G: Lins redesigned Otta (marked with green color here) recently, and it inspired me to draw all nomes we have now together~ They are drinking the traditional El-Balyamian beverage (made for them by mortals, of course) - the dark beer :D It is a bit different from the Earth beer, but still really close to it, so you can imagin...

Whoop

L: Roui is a patient guy, but this time his hand slipped.

Memfier

G: I wanted to create my very own nome too! So I have this guy now, named Memfier. He is based on the falcon but I wanted him to look kinda heavy/mighty. But even if he looks like a furious beast, he knows how to control his temper. 

He is the nome of fields of reeds, both the real ones and those sahash and humans ...

Glashtin

L: Their design is not very complex, so the reference is simple too~

Sketchdump

A collection of sketches I found in my folders in Procreate~

The most valuable part here are stryhas!

Sketches

G: I'm slowly working on my personal sahash character, a parba from Ayelahai and on his cute fish-like-predator-pet. I will tell more about them when I can, but you may find this guy familiar - it is Lins's design she made for the Mare's stage scene. She gifted me this guy later because I fall in love with his whole look and ...

Candy

L: Well, yeah, I'm concepting her Maverick-person.

I want to make her a middle aged woman, though these sketches are still not reflecting my design. She is a determined tsourai, who is eager to find the sualokin King and ask him for a power she lost! Her willing to make a new glashtin clan makes her an unstoppable and f...

Selearga

L: I've been working on the myths about the Deceased Moon lately.  This creature (we still call them "vimba") is a base of that myths and also religion. 

We'll tell about it more in the game, I guess. Anyway, if this info will be too much overwhelming, we'll just publish it on ToyHouse (:

Lazy's tail - done

Thanks to Fjo for her hard work again! 

Mermey-Themed Sketches

L: Alongside with young Roui, I was thinking about his Nourian friends, Mermey in particular. If we would make a short spin-off in visual novel (or short manga maybe?) format, telling about Roui’s past back in Nouri, Mermey would be the protagonist. She is an independent, cool and tough lady, a patron of many singlitarians ...

Cutscene Animatic

L: Something in progress for the Act 3 👀

Drobeski House

L: It's my Birthday today! I drew nothing for myself, so I just post this screenshot with progress on Drobeski's family house, which will be seen (maybe!) in Act 3. 

As patrons know, this background was drawn a long time ago and we edited it many times, but never been happy with the final. So we took some rest and ...

Some news~

L: This month was so busy, we were barely finding minutes to get rest! We completely moved into new place and now we are trying to make some decorations to make the place looks cozy (it literally looks like construction site right now). That's why we made so little updates here this month and I'm sincerely apologise ...
