Description
One day where the realms of instict and reason clash, the kings of each land meet once more for their annual "what will we do with the human brain" discussion.Tired of many years of clashing and battling, they agreed that from there on, the game of dice they both liked would decide the outcome of every situation a human should encounter.
That's the origin of the coin toss.
Made for the "bring your vision to life" contest

That's one of the most impressive concepts I've ever seen! I love the subtle elements and designs you've worked into the piece--it really makes you think.
Thanks very much for sharing, and congrats on the well-deserved DD! :]

Man, it's crazy to see how one can be right and one can be wrong, but it depends on the person as to which one they trust more.
One of the ultimate conflicts

The designs are brilliant, you can immediately tell which is which, I love how reason looks like some kind of chess piece, and instinct has a GORGEOUS primeval design.

great piece. we seem to forget that with all the advances we have made, that we are still animalistic and prone to our basest desires--not that it can be a bad thing, lol.

As someone who is fascinated by the human brain and it's idosyncracies as well as art, this is the perfect blend of my loves. : ) Fantastic job, I love the little details (the multiple arms on instinct and the castle-crown of reason, for example).

Ever so creative to the point of my interest. I like your use of knowledge to that of a dice roll ruling the lives of a human's choice.

XD I kind of agree with that. As a race, Humans can be extremely illogical and unpredictable. A game of dice is a good analogy for how the our brain works at times.

Are you following *tarrzan ? The creature on the left of this picture, looks like something out of one of his semi-abstract pictures.

Most human actions are categorized by "reason" and "instinct." Instinct is what makes you give in to your most basic urges. When someone gorges on food they know is unhealthy or punches someone they know they'll get in trouble for.
Reason is when you take the time to think about what's proper and improper in society.
The two creatures embody those things
