"It was born of lava, given life by the Rift, and some say that whenever a series of volcanoes erupt, this colossus awakens from it's deep slumber. It spews lava from every part of it's body, and volcanoes erupt constantly on it's back, bringing about mass destruction in every movement it makes."

The most important thing in survive is, how to get a food.

Through a portal opened in the center of a main city in Europe, the Angler invaded Earth and wiped out the human from the face of the Earth.
Now with a small resistance allocated in a military base in Antactica, the human have to regain power in their home planed by closing the portal in the Angler head quarter.

Old one: [link] 2009
New one: [link] 2012. Take a look please. This one is a bit cropped.

Again, playing with styles. Now more cartoonish. Also: got rid of blur - love sharpening; the trees are now... trees. Not WTF sticks, yup. Also added the road. It was stupid without a road. Tried better style for face, changed girl`s clothes a bit, so she looks prettier, not like a hobo xD Also i didn`t use any downloaded content - textures, brushes, etc. All done by standart brushes and textures of PS and SAI.
I could have done it better. Was in a hurry, yes... But had fun. SO much fun. FUN FUN FUN.

Browse the contest folder, it is interesting, really! : D

The Sibyl is a project I am currently starting development on where the end product with actually be a written novel. I do not want to give very much away, but I can tell you these are the four main characters (Aron, Tahlia, Tzalmon, and Darrach). This is a book about prophecy, corrupt politics, and of course, destined love. This Project is going to really tax my patience. Writing a book, let alone a book series, is not easy. However, since I teach character development at the Art Institute and I am a graduate student currently (I am only 24 people), this is something I am passionate about. I want to show people that creating with purpose gives so much more meaning to a work more than just designing to design.

This is character art for the book. Beyond writing it I am doing a series of character art and the book cover.
