ND's Animorphs Art - UPDATE JULY 13
« on: February 02, 2012, 05:44:33 PM »
2014 UPDATE ON PAGE 3!
---
I spot an art forum so I must put my Animorphs stuff here!

Only Andalites for now, though my head canon view of them is... pretty personalized. I wanted to make my own recognizable take on them. Links to the pics on DA included because they're bigger there and have more details (especially the second one!).


The first Andalite I drew, more or less a doodle to get a feel of them. I added the mane and the elbow fluff for my own enjoyment and I liked how it looked.

Anatomy fascinates me to no end so I had to do this! You may want to read the description on the deviantART page, a lot of thought and research went into this.

Visser Threeeeeee! *happy face* This is what I meant with my head-canon Andalites. The ear fluff and mane is something they have on the tv show, the elbow fluff is because I like it, but it needed something more to make an adult look different from a teenager like Ax. So I fiddled around with belly fluff after looking at lion pictures. I like fluff!
The most difficult part of this was to make him look evil actually... hard to do with Andalite expressions (or lack thereof).

Last one for now: Visser Three and the fawn/kiddy version of my OC-in-the-making: Issdari. Yes I know what you're probably thinking: Esplin must be horribly out of character here! In some way he is and in a bigger way he isn't, and until I actually finish a decent ref of Issdari I'm keeping the explanation for myself, so for now you'll have to do with the vague explanation that comes with the pic on DA.
Also, I can't draw kids. :P

That's it for now. Hope you'll enjoy. ^-^

Those a very excellent -- so says someone who can't draw his way out of a paper bag.

*Wonders if we'd get an Animorphs comic book/graphic novel.*

Hey, you never know . . . they did it for the first Percy Jackson book.

Thanks everyone!

Haha, someone said the same thing on deviantART. I didn't really realize they resembled Na'vi markings until it was mentioned, but I agree it looks similar. It must have been an subconscious thing, I do love that movie.

I know who is getting my vote for the next awards.
What awards? :P

Actually, it seems to be the trend on DA that andalite young have stripes/spots of some sort.  I actually really like it.

We have RAFawards every year.  I'm usually nominated but never win.

But I'm not bitter. ;) :P

True. Like me I think most people are inspired to give Andalite babies spots and stripes because they're basing them on real deer fawn.

Ooh! I guess I just missed them. Now I have to draw AM stuff all year long to have a chance no? Challenge accepted!


In other news, Visser Three goes OMNOMNOM. All joking aside, this scene always tore me up when I read it, and it still does.
I just can't imagine the terror Elfangor must have felt at that moment. So far away from home, injured, having just lost all his friends and family and about to die a gruesome death at the hands (teeth?) of the monster he helped create because of mistakes and wrong decisions he had made in the past. And at the same time knowing that he is leaving the fate of Earth in the hands of five human kids against near impossible odds.

And he still fought till the very end. Now that's a hero right there.

R.I.P. Elfangor ;_;

ALSO! I'm open to suggestions/requests. They obviously have to be Animorphs related but if there's something in particular you would like to see, a scene or a character (OCs included) let me know. This is NO guarantee that I will actually draw it though, and they may not all be fully colored (because I honestly hate shading). I pick what sounds like the most fun to me.
Enjoy. ^_^

Draw me!

Just kidding -- another RAFian named Damien already did that.

These are insane. Are they hand drawn and then scanned and touched up on a comp; or are they drawn on a comp with a touchpad?
