Description This was only meant to be my first entry for Kanka and Pearl's contest: [link] but it became much more than that to me. I really had fun working on this and i like how it came out.

I wanted to do the earth element for my theme because it is my favorite, but i also wanted to do something different that i had never done before, so i chose the 'metal' form of earth. He was meant to look less mechanical, but that's okay. I also wanted to make an entry that wasn't a wolf because they probably get wolves more than anything else, but wolves are what i am best at drawing right now. ^^'

The little diamond shaped peices of scrap metal on his neck and tail are held there but magnetism and the rest is all bolted on. Neato huh? ^_~

i definitely have to say that this is a really inventive and original idea.

i don't think there'll be many entries like this cuz everyone is going to do stuff like fire or water.

CaptainMorwen In reply to SUNgoddessOKAMI [2008-05-16 21:26:49 +0000 UTC]

that's what i thought too, earth is probably the least popular element and i doubt anyone will do metal, at least not like mine. Thanks ^^

Inspired by Avatar. I just love how they manipulate the ground and metal. It's awsome

you could hug him is his magnetism is turned off; the little scrap metal peices are ver sharp so you don't want to hug those. ^_~

Cave canem, eh? Great design, very good execution. Impressive metal effects via pencil, although it looks a wee little bit rough, contrasting the sharp outlines. But it's full of character, and I like it a lot.

That is amazing, the shading is great and the shininess is, well... Shiny! I wish I could have as much skills as you do anatomy wise (I'm not fond of using colour, just viewing it, but yours is superb as I always say )

It's really cool seeing sci-fi wolves. First dragon wolves, now robot wolves!

You'll think of em when you least expect it... Mine aren't really out-there (and are probably classified as fantasy) crazy, but most of mine are from nightmares/dreams... Sci-Fi is such an awesome genre ^_^

WOW Awesome, I was going to enter, but Im not very good at drawing, in fact this is my second time on this site. Seeing your work is insparitional but also jealousy comes into it

How long did this take you to do? Photoshop?

CaptainMorwen In reply to wackakarl [2008-05-13 15:57:48 +0000 UTC]

Oh, you should enter anyway, there is always room for improvement in any artists work, it just takes practice. Welcome to dA by the way, i hope you are enjoying it. ^_^

Hm... this took about three hours i think. No photoshop. ^^
