Been fond of the game called Bloody Roar for some years and decided to take a non-battle scene of the game that doesn't per say exist but I imagine would be likely in the world it's set in.

Stun (Beetle anthromorph on the right) being hunted down for physical curse and lack of control of himself and with a possible friend who'd be one of the few in the world wanting to help him.

Done in Photoshop CS4

Silhouttes

Character Ideation class
Twist up a fairytale.

I chose Beauty and the Beast, set in Edo Japan.
The beauty - Kaida, A feisty daughter of a merchant, she has trouble adapting the social mannerisms of her time frame and refuses to take things quietly wanting to not be the delicate flower that is painted on scrolls

 

The Beast -  Once a human warrior, He has been tricked to serving Lord Ao as his samurai till death does his honor part. Unfortunately the armor bestowed upon him grants him immortality and lack of will. His choice to do this was out of spite that he could not be part of the shogun wars.







The father - A once prestigious merchant, his fortunes have fallen down as of late. No longer able to afford samurai to protect his cargo and having no servants at his whim but 6 spoiled children. He makes the mistake of taking someone's hospitality too far when he tries stealing from the very castle that sheltered him one stormy night



The true master of the Castle - Lord Ao perfers to keep himself a great mystery to his guests. Even his fellow demons and spirits. He however has an affinity for stories and keep himself in a room lit of a hundred candles.
