new monster
« on: February 28, 2004, 10:31:05 am »
First of all, I found this site some weeks ago, and just can say WOW.
A very impressiv project. I looked around ingame and on the hp, and for that early stage... wow, simply amazing, great.

here is a monster I did for PS, the gegarin :



The Gegarin:
Difficulty level: noob monster, easy to kill
Physical Attack: fangs and claws
Magical Attack: none
Nutrition: omnivorous
Intelligance: very low
Hitpoints: very low
packsize: 3 to 7 individuals

Descibtion:
A gegarin has the size of an average dog or a wolf, and like those it is hunting in packs. Gegarins prefer to live around shallow lakes or streams, and are hardly able to swim.
As an omnivorous, the gegarin, is eating nearly everything: plants, carrion, small animals, humans... Due to its low intelligance gegarin packs are attacking also travellers and animals wich are too strong for them to kill. Gegarin packs are normally fighting to their death, evan agains a strong enemy.
But the gegarin\'s biggest disadvantage are their poor instincts. A gegarin can\'t see or hear very good, only his sense of smell is a bit better. Thanks to that fact a gegarin will never attack a traveller. Unless this traveller would come too near, the gegarin pack simply wouldn\'t notice him.

Seems thats all... hm... hope you like it ^^

All I can say is wow.   You are a very gifted artist.  Just curious though, have you joined the PS team?

Great detail in that drawing! I\'m amazed! :o
I think you\'ve drawn monsters for games and such more often, seeing the way in which you drew the monster in different poses and from different perspectives.

really, that\'s just amazing.. 8o

You could try and contact the devs on irc, or submit it to the Laanx\' Wheel of Wishes . they still need some 2d art to be done :)

Always wondered how some people are able to create something like that.. It\'s just beautiful, (although the creature itself isn\'t;)) The describtion is nice too, suits him very well. And yes I think too that you might have a place in the PS team.

@ Nanaki:
You said the Gegarin was very unintelligent, but on 1 picture it is holding a spear. So either it got it of the corps of a newbie that they killed ;), or it made the spear itself, in which case it would be fairly intelligent.  ?(

hey, thanks vor all that comments, nice to see you like my work :)

I submited it to the LWW, but it seems the descibtion is too long, it always becomes cut in the half... and without linebreaks it looks quite confusing ^^

About the spear:
Gegarins don\'t craft spears. They sometimes use pointed pices of wood to hunt fish in the shallow water (or they use their hands).
The stonespear in the picture has a very simple reason: When I made the first scetches the gegarin hold a pointed stick, but after finishing I recognized that it almost look like a magic wand ^^? After some hours working I was to leasy to change his whole arm, so I added a stone at the end of the stick.  

I\'m not doing it for a living nor I ever have drawn monster for games bevor. At the moment I\'m still at school, perhaps I will have a try after I finished it. :)

Joining the PS team... perhaps
I want to do some other drawings for PS first, at the moment I don\'t have so many pictures to show to them. In some weeks I could have enough for a try ^^ I guess, I will manage it to do some new drawings in the next days to make a start.
