Description
The Dynamic Duo of Tomb Raider Fan Art is at it again! Forty-Fathoms ArtisticAdventuresAnd this time, we are bringing you a brand new series called The Dangers of Tomb Raider, based on a concept that the lovely Miss Forty-Fathoms had. We are doing these series a little different than our normal collaborations. To those of you who may not know, Forty-Fathoms is an amazing digital artist. In this series, she has drawn Lara and I do the backgrounds, but her and I will both be doing the coloring--she the digital, and I the traditional. So you will have the visions of two artists' minds merged into one delicious, bad ass Tomb Raider Art viewing experience!
In this series, we will be depicting those moments in Tomb Raider that make your heart pound, the ones that make you jump out of your chair, the ones that make you think, "OMG!!!!!"
This drawing portrays that moment where Lara enters the Temple of Xian, with the room filled with Terra Cotta warriors. We love this moment, because we all know that when we first entered that room, we thought those statues were going to come to life, and we were going to have to fight for our lives. Thankfully they didn't...although a part of me wishes that they did, lol.
Thank you Forty-Fathoms for the honor of working with you again on yet another amazing collab project. I am indebted to your awesomeness.

Awww!
thank you once again!
I love working with Forty-Fathoms not only is she my best friend but astrologically speaking, our signs are also in sync, which is another reason why I think our artistic energies blend so well.

OH MY. I love the vibrancy of the colors, the details of textures, the lighting, the shadowing, I'll never know how you do it, but it looks fantastic! I can't wait to do more collaborations with you. I'm still working on my digital version and then I'll start working on the next lineart. You are so talented, I am so proud of you!

Fantastic Duo!
Even here it seems that the statues come to life. I love the hues of red on the walls.
Another great piece truly inspiring!

So this is what you girls have been working on! I'm really impressed by Sarah's amazing lineart and your marvelous coloring just as always.
I really love the theme of depicting those thrilling moments in the TR games, I may not have played all of the games, but I definitely know and enjoy the thrill TR can give you, hehe. This is a really cool start, and I LOVE how you colored the floor, that must've really depleted your poor pencils though!
You two always make such a perfect team, and you two surely did an amazing job! Love it!

Sarah's drawings of Lara are flawless, which makes my job so easy!
I am so glad you love it. Yes my pencils got very short when I colored this one! But luckily I replaced all but one of them...

Indeed, she can really capture Lara so well!
No problem, it looks awesome! Haha, I'm glad you could replace most of them, how come there was one you couldn't?

Everything's here! Even the timed switch on the upper floor
The first time I entered the room, I thought spiders would jump out from behind each statue
Impressive work with the fresco! I also like the robust aspects of Lara's legs and her knees.
I fancy the details on the shoelaces What a meticulous work!!
The perspective is remarkable with the coloured lines.
Kudos to both of you for this amaizing collaboration work

Thank you so much, dear friend! Oh wow the thought of spiders in this room makes it even more scary---that would have been a nightmare!
I am so happy you like it, Sarah and I thank you.
