Onos!

Solitario

Here is an natural selection artwork I made: <a href="http://www.wg08.de/_Julian/Artwork/onos.jpg" target="_blank">onos</a>

That's the <a href="http://is3.okcupid.com/users/158/172/15817304205004238140/mt1106451560.jpg" target="_blank">original picture.</a>

Cool but I have one comment.

Those pointy things on his legs, having these would suggest the onos uses them to hit on things/prays with his knees. But since your draying is showing his knees bending the other way (backwared), that kinda makes you think they are there for nothing since he can't bend his leg at the knee part and use them as weapons in the right way.

That's pretty damn good. You should try to colour it. :>

That is breath taking, It's nice to see some new talent in the artwork forums right off the hop. I'll whip out my tablet and see if it can be coloured, although to do that, I'd basicly just be using that as a reference since the thick dark shading.

Damn, You got some skillz dawg(ette).

Solitario

thanks guys =)

to Browser_ICE : Yes, you are right. The "pointy things on his legs" are a little bit failed. Whatever, nothing can't be perfect <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" />

Got some nice details going there!!! One thing which hasn't been said yet: a comment on the toes. I personally think they are a tad to long, I always looked at the onos legs as those from an elefant. But that doesn't take away the fact that it looks very nice...

As impractical as they may be, they are true to the original NS promo image. Still have to give you credit for making that observation, it's not something I would've noticed so quickly on the original.

And I'm in agreement with Scythe, a coloured version would definitely be worth checking out <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" />

Maybe they are not that impractical, Imaging the wolves claws on the inside of the wolf their front legs (they are removed from german sheppard, not sure if other domesticated dogs have them on birth). Anyway they use these to get better grip on larger prey. Maybe the Onos does the same thing when trying to get a better grip on it's prey... Kind of like a bear hug (even though I explained it with a wolves claw <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" />)
