Description It's the February Challenge! Yay!

What's that you say? It's not February? Well.... better late than never, right? It's been more difficult than usual to fit in drawing time lately - but even if I miss the deadlines I'm not missing out on this epic collaboration with and - so here goes!

The story so far: Two mysterious and powerful warriors have appeared and attacked Thunder Force members Centauri, Crush and Samantha Grey. Crush and Grey were dragged through a portal and have disappeared, while a battered Centauri returns to Thunder Force HQ with one of the Templars...

Ever wonder how Goyle styles his hair? I do, and its thoughts like these that keep me awake at night.

I can see him carving it with a chisel - "little bit off the top today sir..."

Tmaneea In reply to Kostmeyer [2016-03-20 00:11:41 +0000 UTC]

I'm afraid his body would recognize such chiseling as injury, and would try to "heal" any attempt of an actual hairdo.

As a side note, this is reminding me of the conversation of the Warden with Shale. Β "Wait, how did he shorten you?" Β "With a chisel, and a log of nerve."

Dragon Age Origins - RPG video game. Β The Warden is the main protagonist. Β Shale is a golem that you have the option of animating and adding to your team. Β She's about half again as tall as all other golems in the game, so you have the chance to ask her why, at which point she tells you that her former master did it.

Shale... really didn't like her former master.

It's not hair. It's rock. It's just a mass of stone sitting on top of his head. He'll never have a bad hair day. Now hopefully you can get some sleep.

So Goyle is basically rockin' that hairdo?

Bracey100 In reply to Tmaneea [2016-03-19 19:11:51 +0000 UTC]

I know its rock, thats the whole reason for the comment. But how did it get like that, was that just what he was born with? Random chance? Imagine if he'd had dreadlocks or a beehive hairdo. Sorry son, youre just stuck with that.

Tmaneea In reply to Bracey100 [2016-03-20 00:09:45 +0000 UTC]

He was born like that. Gargoyles (at least my version of them) aren't born as babies like we are. They form already full grown and never change. The idea of styling hair would be as odd to a gargoyle as reshaping the features of their faces.

It was a real pain to do! I should have drawn the Templar on a separate sheet of paper really so that I could add him to photoshop as a separate layer - but I didn't think about it until it was too late!

Bracey100 In reply to Kostmeyer [2016-03-19 06:08:45 +0000 UTC]

My pages have dozens of layers! I put almost everything (each character, the set pieces, effects) into their own separate layers. It can be time consuming but it also makes doing a lot of stuff easier.Β

Goyle is such a great character I wasn't planning on using him, but when the storyline I got suggested that the Templar was locked up at Thunder Force HQ, it made sense to have him provide the tech support. I love a cameo!

Thanks for the s - much appreciated!

Great page as usual, sir. I love the way you wrote Goyle here. He sounds just like I'd expect him to. In my mind, he's very much Hank McCoy aka the Beast in both diction and mannerisms.

Kostmeyer In reply to Lecter-the-Mu [2016-03-01 21:52:53 +0000 UTC]

She's a sort of space-cop, so I figure interrogations are nothing new. But she has a few tactics to try before she has to get really nasty
