  1. "Realistic" superpower martial arts?

    I had an idea for a fight that directly invokes this. Basic gist, it was speed+durability vs strength. Both fighters had super strength but no flight, which meant they were forced to find ways to stop themselves from sliding backwards when hitting each other, which would reduce the force they...

    Peak elf performance is definitely peak, can confirm.

    Been a while since I last posted. Here's an angel warrior.

  4. Ozlyk's Art Corner

    Not really a super intense critique, just something that kinda sticks out is that the characters don't quite fit the background properly? It kinda feels like that old school cartoon effect where they'd paint the background and then animate the characters separately, and you could tell what parts...

  5. Ozlyk's Art Corner

    Honestly, I really love your lineart. It almost feels a shame to add colour to it, the colour usually ends up hiding all that gorgeous texture work. At the same time, I can see the need for it—the sheer amount of texture almost feels overwhelming, and the colour helps organise it so it's a bit...

  6. Ozlyk's Art Corner

    Are there any artists you feel had a big impact on your style? I can't quite think of any who have that particular mix of dynamic angles and detailed background textures. Most concept artists seem to prefer the "background smear of colours" thing, not sure why.

  7. Ozlyk's Art Corner

    God, these are beautiful. I'm a bit curious, how do you come up with the designs for your characters? With the commissioned works you probably get some reference images you can work with, but do you prefer to work with more anime/manga references or real people as references?

  8. Manga Rec Thread

    Webtoon rec: War of Corpses. Best way to describe it? Temu version of Rudo from Gachiakuta fights in Necromancer Battlebots featuring biopunk horrors made out of Frankenstein'd corpses alongside Zombie Muscle Waifu that's basically Penthesilia and Frankenstein's yuri lovechild. Note, when I...

    Got a rec for a Manhwa: The Knight of Embers. It's a sequel to Epic of Gilgamesh by the author Hwandaeng, and while Gilgamesh isn't required reading for understanding the story, it does help a lot in understanding the background...and is a good story besides. Gilgamesh is available on Lezhin...

    Been a while since I last posted anything here. Been practicing my portraits. I really hate ballpoints cause of that annoying tendency to blotch. Having to remember to wipe the nib down always breaks the flow.

  11. Mato Seihei no Slave/Slave of the Magic Capital's Elite Troops

    Been 24 hours, so should be fine. Anyways, another idea I really like is Yuuki being the reincarnation of the Hollow Knight, from the game with the same name. The idea I'm having is that the Hollow Knight, after , reincarnates into Yuuki. Yuuki grows up relatively timid and withdrawn, kinda...

  12. Mato Seihei no Slave/Slave of the Magic Capital's Elite Troops

    Had a couple of potentially interesting ideas that I'm gonna sorta smoosh together into one, possibly more interesting idea. So, basically, Chained Soldier has a bunch of pretty obvious references to the legend of Izanami and Izanagi—specifically, the parts which take place in the Underworld...

    Oh, these are fucking gorgeous.

    Threadmarks: Microwave Potato - Somebody

    Microwave baked potato, why is this easier and faster than a normal baked potato? What you need: A potato. ...no, that's about it. A microwave would also be nice to have. How to make it: wash thoroughly, stab it with a fork about six or so times, then toss it in there for 10 minutes on high...

  15. Manga Rec Thread

    Honestly, you'd imagine in a setting where people ran on video game logic, everyone would min-max for Constitution/Vitality/whatever the HP determining stat is. When all that stands between you and death is a single number, you'd want that number to be as big as possible.
