Since the new forum is still not back up I'm creating this temporary version of my W4O-Bestiary thread....
So, let's head for the next creature:





The Giant Spider

The picture was not yet uploaded to the W4O-Site so I'm only going to show you some samples

notes:
-Done in about 4 hours because I haven't got a lot of time at the moment
-completely done digital by using openCanvas and Photoshop
-don't look at those pictures in case you've got an arachnophobia
-no, I'm not afraid of spiders, I think they're pretty interesting. Got some bigger ones running around in my room from time to time

That's some seriously nice work Amberfox. I have no idea how purely digital art works though - I can draw alright normally, and I can edit digital pictures, but I've got no idea how you can go about starting an entirely computer-generated pictures.

Looks great as always Ambber.. :goodjob:

Looks good chief! Might wanna keep it a surprise though and do the run-down after? Up to you really Thats how i like to do the daedra anyways

thanks again for your comments, guys!




Usually I'd also prefer to keep it a secret until the picture has been added to the site, this time however I didn't really know wether I would have any time to write something about my newest picture for the Bestiary because I haven't got a lot of free time - so basically I did it before the newest adition was revealed . I also forgot to mention that there won't be any weekly updates for the next three weeks because I've got holidays then and won't be at home (going to norway, by the way! )
I've also got some ideas for some sword-sketches I might do then and which you could use as a reference for a 3D-model in case you're interested

Aw, I'm so jealous! All I can draw is a little spider with (six? eight? dozen?) big googly eyes... Like something out of Precious Moments or something. :shocked:

But, you, you draw in so much detail! :goodjob: I can practically imagine it as a real spider... So realistic... and kind of... cute.

Wow those are some awesome pictures. Swords that would be awesome. You do awesome work.

*looks out from where the spider sent him cowering in fear*

:paperbag:

Is the spider gone? Oh, wait. It isn't real...

Yeah im very tied up with work and moving and finding a new job at the mo so the daedra section has slowed somewhat. As for the sketches, that sounds cool send me some links via PM (or jpgs) so i have them on record for later

After a looooong break, I'm glad I can finally present you the next part of the W4O-Bestiary





?????

Will be posted as soon as it has been uploaded to W4O

Ooh...i wonder...

Gah, damn you teasing us with that!

What the? Is it those warriors in daedric armour from the movie?

woah.....teasing yes..can´t wait to see it complete...looking great as usual

The dude in Daedric was a Dremora, and Amber already did one of those.

My bet's on Atronach. The face (very) vaguely reminds me of a Frost Atronach for some reason.

hehe, I think you'll find out tomorrow...

These. Yikes, dismemberment looks like its in. He has no right leg.

I see a strange resemblence, I was thinking a watery critter

I d oubt its them. The Bestairy is for CREATURES. Not people, remeber?

Oh, and about his leg, thats either a bad angle or his leg clipped into the wall. The Devs said theres no dismemberment if i remeber correctly.

It was a joke Aki.

Oh yeah, creatures...

by the way, Stargel told me it'll probably be uploaded tomorrow

Looks awsome. Cant wait to find out what it is.

Affirmative, it'll be done later today. I'm still waiting for the accompanying text, but it should be in today.

Edit: Well, there you go. A day later than I hoped for, but hey, it's there now

so it was a frost atronarch

It looks like you drew it on tinfoil. It's so shiny! Wow...

since I'll have to begin with a 9-month-lasting civil-service (due to the crappy system here in germany) the first of september, I'm not too sure about when the next Bestiary-picture will be ready. In the worst case it might be that the frost atronach is the last picture I'll have ever done for W4O

AmbberFox

Aww that would be a crying shame......but surely you wuill have some time of your own?..hmm but you might consider spending that on your friends and family instead of making us, your forum-mates happier.....and I´d undersrtand thast...

That Atronach looks awesome. It brings a whole new level of badassry to them... ^__^





Hope you can get the free time to continue on the bestiary Ambberfox.
