GrizzlyBear: I’d call it smooth since you almost never see Kat animated as well as this. It always surprises me when the animation isn’t super choppy or has only two frames
GrizzlyBear: @NewFace: Nah, someone drew Katia reacting negatively to TwistComets stuff, whether to be hurtful or to poke innocent fun I can’t exactly remember. But it wasn’t received so well and other artists tried countering it with things like this to make him feel better
GrizzlyBear: It seems to be another of those tumultuous times where Riften cannot decide between the name Riften or Rifton and are too preoccupied with it to vote
GrizzlyBear: Lovely
Tags are fine, you don’t have to be a perfectionist with them, besides, others can edit them for you if you get something wrong, so don’t sweat it
GrizzlyBear: Oh god lmao. I’m glad you caught that, I REALLY don’t want people who don’t know about her name automatically being changed to get the wrong idea here
GrizzlyBear: Happy Halloween! Another awesome art collaboration, this time with little versions of characters trick-or-treating. Thanks to everyone who participated, was a blast to work on
GrizzlyBear: If you mean you want to embed an image, surround the image URL with [img] and [/img]. You can try it in the BBCode previewer if you want test it out first
GrizzlyBear: @Zargothrax: Yeah it took me only four days, but I’m still stuck in quarantine so I had plenty of time to work on it. I tried to be less cartoony and more oblivion accurate and I think it paid off, his thigh could’ve been a little longer though
GrizzlyBear: Decided to do one of the left over cards from the project, kinda went all out on it, except towards the background. The Justice card means exactly what you think it means, law, fairness, accountability for actions, and karmic justice. It often indicates that you or someone in your life isn’t being treated fairly, and you will eventually face trail for that injustice. Using Asotil was pretty much a no-brainer, but in doing that most of its symbolism ended up absent, but I kept the basic things at least. The scale he holds is a symbol of balance and fairness, while his sword represents the enactment and preservation of Justice, even through force. The Imperial city and the aylied archway on either side of Asotil weren’t originally supposed to be the pillars from the actual card, was pretty much a coincidence but eh I’ll take it. That’s pretty much all there is to it really, wasn’t too complicated to connect to the original like some of the others were
GrizzlyBear: My other entry, made in a hurry and it shows in a few places, but I’m mostly happy with it. The empress normally represents maternal influence, fertility, and abundance. Nothing too “maternal” about Sigrid, but I was able to connect a few things, like the scepter that is held by the empress represents her power over life, like Sigrid’s perfume and enchantments are used to hold power over the people of Kvatch. In a way she is their empress, even influencing politics in her favor. The empress also has a connection to nature, and nature seems to associated with the illusion Sigrid puts people under, with the fawn, butterflies, and so on which I always assumed weren’t literal in the comic. Lastly the empress card usually depicts a field of grain which represents a bountiful harvest and abundance, in this case the heaps of gold she cons out of people.
GrizzlyBear: My Wheel of Fortune tarot by itself. It doesn’t really have much to do with the original card other than looks, I had a little trouble trying to carry over the cards meaning while connecting it to prequel. Even the moons, sun, stars, and clouds in each corner don’t represent the winged creatures in the original, they’re just filling up space really. The original card is associated with good/bad luck, with big and unexpected changes to your life
GrizzlyBear: @PermanentFace: I don’t think he really meant anything by it. Pretty sure he already stated he didn’t want to do Prequel stuff anymore before this, it’s not in response to Zargo’s reply, I think his tone just comes off that way. It’s more like “Okay, but it doesn’t really matter since I’m not doing any more Prequel art”. Also I don’t expect someone who clearly struggles a bit with English to know or care much about the tagging system here honestly
GrizzlyBear: @Zargothrax: Oh, thanks for catching that. Might have to fix the other while I’m at it, it’s the first result on the drop down box and more people will probably hit it without realizing
GrizzlyBear: Vehicle? Like a recumbent bicycle, except upright?
Nice, looks exactly like something Damrok made at first glance (don’t worry though, kaz and damroks style are pretty much the same)
GrizzlyBear: Kats aplenty
I’d say you understand how to draw her in her original art style better than a lot of people here. Even the ones that aren’t from the comic actually look as if they could be
GrizzlyBear: Honestly looks like my new favorite or yours, I think you handled the body shape and face pretty well, my only gripe though is her arms being a little short. Still, looks like you’re on the right track man, keep it up
