Artist's Comments

This is only a lineart version- I'll have a colored version up hopefully soon. I drew this Wednesday (Feb. 2nd 2006). Before anyone chews my head off (you know who you are) I did a hell of a lot of research as far as what the American Indians wore. I havn't quite researched their culture to the extent that I'd like to (I already know a lot about them because of school and my boyfriend's rants lol (he's part American Indian so he loves his culture a lot)). But yeah anyway... All I'm saying is I didn't look to any one artist for the clothing or weapon design, most of it was from direct research and my sense of design. There was slight inspiration from my friend ~Majime (=darkenedbloodwings) but most of it was from research and myself... so... yeah.

Now that I'm done with the disclaimer >_> I'll continue.

I decided quite a while ago that Bevan would be based off of the American Indians because for one thing, Kenny's part American Indian, and Bevan is supposed to be based off of him so it seems to fit. Especially now with his newer colors. Teresa I'm not quite sure yet... I might make her culture based off of Asian culture (Japan) or Indian culture (India). Most likely India. Masurao I havn't quite decided yet. I'm torn between making his roots in Egyptian culture and Japanese/Chinese culture. Since =Nanuka's raptor race is based off of the American Indians, and =RizyuKaizen's is (I assume from some art she has up) rooted in Oriental culture (Chinese?), Masurao will probably be rooted in Egyptian culture... Like was originally planned in the beginning. Meh I dunno we'll see. X3 Masurao wont be running around in tribal attire that much anyway but at some point he might return to his roots, who knows... He's a stubborn ass so maybe not. xD Anyway I'll shut up.

Colored clothing reference (with a backview as well) for Bevan will be up some time soon I hope. I'm not really sure since I have a bunch of commissions to finish but we'll see.

Every single time I look at a picture of yours, I'm floored at how wonderfully elegant and detailed you can get your characters to look. Just...gah. Death by envy.

The details that you put into you images are amazing. Not to mention the amount of thoughtfulness you put into your descriptions.

Oh nice. :) I musta commented on this one and "Warrior of Shadows" in reverse order. It's nice to see the whole figure--there more of the outfit to admire and there are little bits I might miss elsewhere--I like the little things like the gloves and the design of the knife. :) I'm really impressed with how each of your big three characters seem to be moving into their own distinct visual style and character after all this time and constant refinement. :) Excellent work! I like it a lot!

He looks VERY cool, very traditional... I love it. My character would probably try pulling the "I'm cute, you wanna pet me" trick on this one. Native Americans' belief system is where many of my own beliefs take root; I studied Shamanism when I was in the fifth and sixth grade extensively (I'm a geek, and I just love learning about religion...). There's nothin' like nature!
