MrNevers… Bwa ha ha ha ha haaaaaaaa!

I’ve asked a good dear, squishy tentacled friend of mind to provide some illustrations for our illustrious creations. Don’t touch him, he bites!

This thread here would be a good place to post such works of art (hint hint), as well as to comment and tell him how awful they are. Or, better yet, to make suggestions.

Sketches!

Heres some sketches. Let me know what you think. I'm totally open to discussion. If something needs to be changed, lemme know!

 

[MrNevers]

Woah!

Ooohhh, shiny!

The brainstealer dragon is almost as I envisioned it - just the wings are a tad small. They don't look like they could carry the dragon, and don't seem quite fleshy.

The mind worm has a bit of a catterpillar - I intended it to look more like a purple worm. But without the legs, it would be great as well!

I like the single eye on the nerve swimmer! The four tentacles do give a "forked look" as well, though my original intention was a two-way split. But since the four tentacles add to the mind flayer connection, that's ok.

Knight Otu created those three scary things out of his head.

The brainstealer dragon is almost as I envisioned it - just the wings are a tad small. They don't look like they could carry the dragon, and don't seem quite fleshy.

oh right, I was wondering about that. The dragons can fly, the wings are more like fleshy membranes (carnivorous flying squirrels anyone?) rather than traditional dragon-style wings.

The mind worm has a bit of a catterpillar - I intended it to look more like a purple worm. But without the legs, it would be great as well

maybe we need an example of the purple worm (see below - complete with bad, quickie erase job!). I do love the look of the mind worm above, even if it isn't quite what you had in mind.

I like the single eye on the nerve swimmer! The four tentacles do give a "forked look" as well, though my original intention was a two-way split. But since the four tentacles add to the mind flayer connection, that's ok.

originally, they were described as looking like a letter "Y". I'm almost regretting taking that part out of the description.

tell you what i'm going to do - i'm going to want to submit the article over the weekend to meet the deadline, but if you want to work on those sketches some more, and/or do some new ones for the other 5 critters, i can submit a second package of just illustrations. i'll send these three along as-is for now. it takes the editors weeks to look over article submissions, so i can send that in any time.

and if you guys like his work, there is more to see... http://www.roughbeasts.com/

What pictures are these, boz.

Ferret, don't tell me you haven't been paying attention to what we've been doing around here for the last month or so. go have a look around at the more recent threads to see what we've been doing with our Mind Flayer article for Dragon mag. We're going to do more articles, when/if we hear more from the editors.

The monsters depicted here are detailed in this thread: http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=116455

I just found out that MrNevers is on vacation in hawaii (lucky bastard). when he gets back, I’ll ask him if he was going to do anything more for us, but by then it may be too late. *shrug* if so, that’s OK, we’ll just take advantage of him for some other project.

I look forward to more of his work.
