Man, I love how insanely happy Beyond looks. It is like you took out a camera and snapped a photo of him just before he started laughing.
XD I love that idea!

. Have to say that in my eyes, Cone steals the show.
I totally agree on that. I actually thought about erasing Beyond and just having Cone there.

I've become massively sick. I don't dare say I might be getting better in a day or two. Can't wait to get better. I want to draw and write.

Urgh, I'm late to he party, ain't I?

Well, anyway, I do love the image. Maphara looks so angry. In the "get a fucking grip," way. You always come up with interesting looking clothes and jewelry. And hairdo's. What I like most though, is how you've drawn Zharo opposed to Maphara. Not sure if it is intentional, but the loose, less hard pencil lines on him seems to reflect how he is still damaged from the crash. Like he isn't quite here. Might be over reading, but still, it kinda looks like that.

Nah, I left him looking lose because I didn't dare put a pen near after having drawn him up with a pencil. I thought I for once got him to look right. Main reason I hardly draw Zharo, I can never get him to look right.

Maphara looks so angry. In the "get a fucking grip,way."

That was what I was going for! XD

I have to admit Maphara's design was a total was a total stab in the dark. I couldn't really think of anything else.

For some reason I read Zihra's hunting thing as: Small kittens.
I got really sad then re-read it, oops.

And who is bugging your brain? ;)

Playing around a little today and thought I'd finally try painting this. Just looking through your thread and realized that her shirt was supposed to be purple.  Well, the red works better against the background.  ::)

Heheheh, very nice work Jeb! It's always interesting to see what you come up with. XD Must say the red shirt is a bit of  surprise to see. but it works well with the background, as you said. =)

An Breaker of Grounds. An animal that can grow to absolute monstrous size.They live underground. Not much is know about them, besides the fact that when they become giant sized, they will go for another underground dwelling spices. The Shadowgrounds' trolls. The trolls and the Timeless typically band together in order to bring them down since the Timeless are rather fond of their troll neighbors.A Breaker of Grounds is incredibly hard to kill. The first one ever killed had 16 spears and 50+ arrows embedded in it's skull alone.

It kinda reminds me of the badgermoles from the Avatar series. Bit like, if you crossed them with the tracker that June used, and you got it. Or maybe even the hork bajir from the Animorphs series. (Hork always makes me think about hairy creatures, even though I know they're amphibianesque.)

Anyway, your Breakers look rather friendly. Cute even. Which is sure to make them dangerous.

I did think of the badgermoles when I made it.  And tried to steer away from their look as best I could. XD Breakers are supposed to be big and none too elegant.  (for some reason, Badgermoles  kinda strike me as elegant)

Trying to color in mp.
Maphara knows how to get the attention of a rockshaper. Wrapstuff them and back them up against a pillar.
Zharo is the rather wrathful High One of the Timless and the father of Beyond and Arehe to name a few.

'She is his personal ruin. The one who made him what he is now. Ice, rocks. Her choice ruined him. She hurt him beyond anything you can think off.'

(20-30 minute drawing, little cleaning done.)

Something made while chatting with DestinysGift over skype. I asked her to design a character my muses claim they couldn’t get feel on.

Then, BOOM, I write what’s going on from one of my characters pow, and suddenly they know how to tackle the woman here. DestinysGift’s version is this lady when she’s ‘well’. Mine is when she’s ‘far gone.’ Or dead, as she said. XD

‘Who eats frogs?’ ‘I DO!’
A 50 year-ish old Marakka playing with his little sister, Ennits. Their mother disappeared when Ennits was very young, leaving Marakka to raise his little sister. They’re playing ‘Who eats who.’ Blackneck, who is Ennits’ owner, once told me she thought frogs are utterly adorable. She ok’ed that trait be passed on to Ennits. Here Ennits is a little kid and his munching on a frog figure.

Made of stone.(Hides from Blackneck)

I excuse myself with the fact she’s a little child.
I kinda dipped in an old manga style, mainly because I find the round eyed look funny and useful at times. In this case I felt it would work for a child who’s having fun.

In this case, ‘Nomnomnomnomnom’ means  ’more frogs!’

The snake around Marakka’s hand is also a made of rock.

I think I'm going to add this guy to the member characters-thread.

Colored by Cometduster:



Name:Tananek, sometimes mispronounced Tanatek.

Birth-tribe: A unnamed tribe of elves that were either half goat or simply had altered their shape to look like it. He was born a very sickly child and his Timeless parent, Res stole him away a week after he was born, when it became clear the mother’s tribe would do nothing to save the child. Tananek grew up with the Timeless and has never shown any interest in his mothers tribe or spoken about her.
Parents: Res and an unnamed Satyr elf. The grandson of Arehe.

Age: Born in Freefoot’s time. 4227 years old when Blue Mountain fall.

Appearance: About a head taller then your typical Wolfrider. Leanish, well built. Has the Timeless insignia tattooed on his left shoulder.

Attire: In warm seasons he hardly wears anything.Prefers to be mostly bare chested. He likes to wear thin thread ropes as decorations. In colder seasons he wears ponchos. His furred legs keep the cold away nicely. His horns are often decorated with threads and small, colorful stones. His eyes are very bright lime green, hair is black. Has 3 silver rings around the end of his tail.


Role: Maker of arrows and spears. Hunter of birds, collector of plants and mushrooms. Often entertains or babysits the tribe’s children, who are often the ones to decorate his horns. Can often be found painting figures on walls and making decorations for other people or feasts.


Skills: Very good leaper, climber, excellent marksman with bow and arrow. Good at getting at hard to get plants.

Personality: Oddly quiet and shy for a Timeless. Known for being very patient and very good with children. Seems to be rather fearful of Wolfriders due to hearing  about their more wolfish ancestors and believes they’d try and eat him.

Background: Res at one point left the Shadowgrounds and went exploring and ended up with a case of amnesia after an accident. He some time later met a satyr elf and ended up Recognizing her. Little is known about their relationship, because Res refused to speak about it. All that is know, is the fact a Res, who was slowly getting his memories back, stole a very sick Tananek from his birthtribe and left the satyr-elves a week after his birth, and managed to get back to the Shadowgrounds and get his son healed.

Tananek was utterly accepted by the Timeless and his childhood was happy, secure and peaceful.
