Well, here it is Lloyd. I finally finished it. There are a few areas that need some fixing, but it is done for the most part. I thought that since you are such a mythology buff, that I would make you a picture of one of the greatest myths out there. For those of you who don't know, this is a picture of Theseus as he stands over the carcass of the Minotaur from the Labyrinth of Gnossus. This is one of my favorite myths and definitely worth reading folks. Well, I hope you enjoy it Lloyd. ^_^

Song? What song? Just kidding. I was listening to my Keane-Hopes and Fears Cd while drawing this for Lloyd. Their music is so calming. I almost ALWAYS listen to them while I draw.

BamboozledByAnimeTotal Posts: 389Jul 30, 2005 9:30 pmHeyyy, that's real good there Kristy. I love how you stuck with the greek garbs of clothing. One thing I would've put..BLOOD! mwahaha! lol, j/k The minotaur looks quite good, and so does the muscular look of his human body.

Lady Anime79 (Reply)Total Posts: 2839Jul 30, 2005 9:58 pm^_^ Thank you EBS. The hardest part ws Theseus' toga. all those tiny little details in the pattern. Plus I had to do it so that I wouldn't screw it up. I tend to do that alot. --- Laughter is the best medicine and your face is curing the world. |

DennisTotal Posts: 986Jul 30, 2005 10:15 pmThank you so much M'lady. I am very happy you thought to do thid for me. When I first saw it I was stunned at the design and the musculature of the minotaur. Theseus also is gorgeous, the work you did on his toga is wonderful with the patterns and the folds. I also want to commend you on the minotaur's head and the fabric around his waist. It's just so well done that I have to give you a thumbs up on them. --- |

Lady Anime79 (Reply)Total Posts: 2839Jul 30, 2005 10:29 pmYou are so very welcome Lloyd. ^_^ I am so happy that you like it. I wanted to do it to go hand in hand with your centaur. I think that is what they are called. Anyway, between the two of us, we should draw all of these legendary Greek monsters. That would be cool huh? We can be like Hercules and Xena of the drawing world. --- Laughter is the best medicine and your face is curing the world. |

Dennis (Reply)Total Posts: 986Jul 31, 2005 12:20 amThat sounds like a great idea Kristy, but i'm afraid I won't be able to do it until a bit later. I am so behind on my novel pages that my publisher's getting somewhat perturbed. If you can wait a while though i'd love to do it at a later date if your still interested? --- |

You're so very versatile about your art, and it's always fascinating to see what you'll do next. Keep up the awesome work!!! --- *Legend of Zelda makes me not die* |

Lady Anime79 (Reply)Total Posts: 2839Jul 31, 2005 10:53 amThank you so very much Heidi. I had alot of fun drawing in this style. Yeah I wanted the expression on Theeus' face to be quite mocking. The only thing I forgot to add was the thread that Ariadne had given him to find his way back out of the Labyrinth. --- Laughter is the best medicine and your face is curing the world. |
