April Prompt Voting

Time for another vote~

But this time since one slot is already taken by Patron Creation, this voting will decide what should I make for the other one.

As usual, the most voted option will be the main prompt for the creature, BUT, depending on what comes second and third, I might be able to combine multiple prompt~...

March Reward - The Brilliant Overseer (The Eye of Empathy)

So first of all, sorry for the late reward >___<

But here it is, from the previous sketch of 'Celestial Beholder' but with a tweaked concept by incorporation the prompt "Anathema" into it.

To refresh what I talked about in the sketch post, the whole concept is based on what I found out about the Etymology of...

WIP - Anathema

So at first, I have no idea what 'Anathema' means, and at first glance and quick search, I thought that I'll just make some corrupted angel or something.

But then I stumble upon its Etymology... it turns out to be quite interesting... It has two kinda opposite meaning, this is what I found :

WIP - Train

Now for the prompt Train (locomotive), there are several Idea that in mind, but due to a very hectic schedule, I have to choose something a bit easier for me.

At first, I was going for a kinda obvious choice; insect, perhaps centipede, or millipede which already resemble a train by themselves. But I'm unable to find a g...

February Rewards 01 - Eden's Siren (Fremeris Paradisis)

Hello~

Here it is, the creature based on 'Seraphic' prompt.

After discussing with patrons in the comment section and on the discord server, I decided to go with the siren. It took a while to research several things, including finding the right anatomy for the creature and its vocal organs. I learn quite a lot of s...

WIP - Seraphic

SO, back to creature creation~

This time these two are the strongest idea that came into my mind. both are the classic monster in both myth and D&D but inserted with an angelic theme. Medieval biblical seraphim have quite a definitive image, beautiful face and pairs of wings and often depicted without a body. Thus, ...

As mentioned before as well, one of the charact...

Video - Making of Glass Weaver

This one is a complicated one, The idea of making creature based on Stained Glass already causing a headache when I started to think about the coloring process. Added to that is my brain decided, in order to get the 'chapel' and 'stained glass' feels, I need a bigger canvas with wider shoot to give the grandiose atmosphere. 2021-01-08 10:35:22 +0000 UTC View Post

This one is hard, but after some research, browsing references, and discussion on discord, I land on this idea.
