Incredibly. Really, a bit of context, and that's going right on a card.

I get th feeling that if there was an internal monologue for that picture, it would be something along the lines of "Impossible! Argus would never ask me for help!" if you catch my meaning. However, if i catch your hint, this appears to be a younger Edge (he does have less eye about his person).

Beautiful new picture too. The contrast between the clothes and the landscape really does it for me.

And Crossroads, in that way they're just like hobbits. Tough feet and all that.

Oh, I definitely see the problem, Crossroads. I should definitely put as much clothes on them as possible. Riiight? .........Noooo? Then okay

Actually, there's a good reason why he can endure cold weather. Besides, doesn't he look good around snow? Poor guy. He needs to get out more

Double-plus Good, Pick!

Although I would have personally made the jacket dark blue. Unless it's supposed to be black, since I'm actually unfamiliar with the character, so nevermind...

Hot damn! That is really great work. You have inspired me to focus on anatomy!

So does this mean you're almost ready to post an update to the story?

Oh, and damn, I wish I had just half the drawing ability that you have.

Tomorrow. I only have one more page to go for this update. Yes, I've been awfully lazy on this update

An incredibly obscure character. Don't wait for him to show up in the story, there's a good chance he won't even be mentioned. Yes, as much crap as I write about in DC, I am cutting it down, thankyousomuch

.

Unlike Edge who is "crazy", Winter actually has the real-crazies.

Horns seems al ittle odd; are they different shapes?

Right above the ear isn't a horn, it's a little bit of decorative poof. Winter=well off. Er. In some respects

He looks... interesting.

The "belt" style does seem to be quite popular in DC, though (I seem to recall some variation of it of it on several characters). Very distinctive.

Only because it's fun to draw. Like, really fun to draw. Like... really fun to draw

He dose seem to have a slight "Belt Fetish" there Pick

or maybe thats you?

But outstanding work, really amazing. Despite the fact your people regular have claws, horns, spikes, and things growing out of them, I have yet to see one that isn't drop dead Sex-iah!!!

It is both "me" and the general impression that black mages have to wear cool dark gothy outfits.

Nooooiiiiiicceeeee Setzer, there. How much money will you take for the original?

I'm afraid the original is only an inking on three-punch computer paper

. It's not really too impressive. I did, however, color this at about twice this size, so hypothetically I could give people high-quality versions if they wanted to make prints (I couldn't do it myself for Setzer since he's copyrighted by Square, but I could do it myself for DC people.)

People who read the story know this scene. Their feet are wrong because I ran out of paper space for Hoquer

I've been wondering what Kamina looked like, although it seems my mental image is fairly close to reality...

Oh, you've probably answered this before, but how many Bassal Keys are there in total? You seem to have mentioned at least half a dozen.

Crossroads Inc. · Post by **Crossroads Inc.** » 2006-02-07 08:58pm

And once more I am reminded why, despite your peeps having spikes, horns, claws, and things poking out of them, they are still drop dead gorgeous. Half to say, considering your recent pics, He actually looks a bit more "beefy" then the others... I like it

Actually, there's four Basal Keys The trouble is, though, that Llanlleians are obsessive when it comes to exactly how they refer to their fellows. Zixer only refers to the other Basal Keys by their surnames (Imatra, Sorloren, etc.) whereas Kamina (unless she is around Zixer, who prefers professionalism and whom she does not wish to offend) will use first names (Hoquer, Bemia, Zixer.) Hoquer is the only person who will refer to the Monarch, Selia, by her first name (or refer to her gender in any context.) They also, as you probably noticed, have a real penchant for nicknames (both for their own kind and for Syvorians of note.)

The Basal Keys are:
Hoquer Imatra
Bemia Ailokeu
Kamina Sorloren
Zixer Delahour

Coincidentally, that is also organized by their respective ages from oldest to youngest.

Selia doesn't-have-a-last-name-yet was a Basal Key before becoming the Monarch.

they ought to be beautiful! As long as I'm going to draw them all day long they might as well be pretty. As for Hoquer, yes. He is the most manly of them, but Zixer is actually fairly discernably male (I need to draw him more.) You're going to find that generally the Llanlleians have beefy men and more lithe girls, where Syvoria is the opposite.

All that last picture needs is the little shreds of paper wafting to the floor and a bug-eyed Zixer in the background.
