Tahei

Shanghai (Dec 10, 2006)

I've been thinking about drawing a frosty mountain town for awhile, but the exact design I just made up as I went. I was thinking of various old games as I made it.

loosely named after Thule

I made Tahei with the idea of a country at the top of the world that's perpetually frozen. There's a Christmas themed mining town (it takes a lot of coal for all the bad kids out there), a glacier roaming with snow beasts, frozen waterfalls during the winter when it gets really cold, a hot springs for the small monkey population (based on a type of monkey in Japan that does go into hot spring waters), an icy moon that's closer than you'd think (it is the top of the world after all), and a castle on the mountain top. I haven't decided who lives in the castle, but it's not Santa Claus. I like real world references and influences, but I normally avoid directly using fictional/real life characters or places since it is my own fantasy world I'm making. Tahei as a country may only be made up of one town and a castle, but they never have to worry about being invaded because no army would want to bother with it. The monkeys here are like miniture yetis, and the snow beasts are their much larger cousins (think The Empire Strikes Back and that big snow monster that attacked Luke at the beginning).

maybe the castle will be a pathway to the moon. The owner of the castle should be based on Kaguya Hime from Japanese folklore (a princess who came from the moon). The pathway should open up during the full moon, and there should be a race of Lunarians there like in Final Fantasy 4 or in the Touhou game series (Imperishable Night was about Kaguya). There was also a villan based on Kaguya in one of the Inu Yasha movies.

I dunno what 'candy flipping' is but this is a nice painting. What attracts me most are the uh... what would you call 'em... grids?

Sweetcell (Dec 16, 2006)

I don't know what it is about this picture that's attractive, the colors you used or the wonderful shell like object above right, but it's one of my favorites. Makes me think of candy sculptures.

The red reflections in his skin is wonderful. Love how you painted this. His eyes maybe need a bit more light in them but other than that, fantastic. Don't know if I ever welcomed you so.... welcome.

Klox...I would be happy to create even your scribbles.

darthfurby (Dec 15, 2006)

This isn't lameness, it's awesomeness. This is Faith Hill at the Country Music Awards after she lost best female vocalist to Carrie Underwood.

LisaAnne (Jan 1, 2007)

pretty crazy...word you need to "holla" at me more often. Later homes.

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Jan 1, 2007)

The real Mr. Abernathy looks like Mr. Wilson from Dennis the Menace, and Mrs. Abernathy was really pissed when the hogs got loose and ate her asparagus. I know I've told this story before, but they were after the potbellied pig who had a parasol, and my Daddy had to bring the horse trailer to get the hogs out of Miss Potbelly's pen. I promise that's the truth.

Aris (c) me. If you steal him, I hope you like having your eyes gouged out with grapefruit spoons. Because that's what I will do to you. :D

Grapefruit spoons are really good for digging in the dirt and making mud pies.... and those little plastic corn on the cob sticker things that no one ever used (or did they?) make a good weapon if the neighborhood bully is after you. This makes me wish I had a coloring book and a box of at least 64 crayolas.

woah_pockster (Dec 13, 2006)

hot dayum. :D hm. I haven't drawn guys on this site much. I should get to that :p

Why are all anime/manga boys so cute? I've never had a grapefruit. or atleast I can't recall ever having one.
