Description Having slowly stalked her prey at the river, she patiently waits for her moment to strike.

I've never drawn a Native American before, so I did. I wanted to try and be original with the design and concept, so hopefully it doesn't look too exaggerated. I know I went overboard with the rocks though; I'll be mindful of that for next time.

Painted in Painter X

Thanks for looking!

How so? I've never played those games, so I'm curious.

I would say that because the main characters are Native Americans from the Apache Nation who travel into the Lost Lands battling threats that will destroy our universe like the Campaigner, Primagen, and Oblivion, but also she reminds me of Danielle Fireseed from Turok 3: Shadows of Oblivion. She is the first female protagonist who uses the Turok title. The games are also known for their unique weapons like the Cerebral Bore; fighting different creatures like dinosaurs and aliens, and the games have a good soundtrack.

That sounds really cool! Thanks for the info! I had heard of Turok back when it was new, but didn't own the consoles it was on, so never had an opportunity to play it.

I like the way yuo draw rocks. They have an almost silky texture to them that you dont see much. I also enjoy the vibrant headdress!

Hmmm, a rather different concept than some of your others. Also, different colors. This time they're much more earthly rather than supernatural.

This is less of a fantasy picture is probably why it seems that way.

This is awesome! The water is so realistic. I can almost taste the cold water in my mouth.
The position of the bow also looks very nice

Thesis-D In reply to Clawanimal [2013-06-11 03:41:25 +0000 UTC]

Love the detail~!

I adore the way you painted her outfit, and am quite envious of the foliage~!

Again, I simply LOVE the 'soft, resonate' feel of the rocks, as well as the water <3

I quite admire you backgrounds- and all your art~!

Thank you. I've done several paintings with rocks since this one, and they're progressively better, but this was my first real attempt at them. It took a long time, but it takes less and less time with each picture now.

Do you mean you like hair that blows in the wind, or do you mean this type of style where the hair is short on the top but long in the back?

AltairSky [2013-05-26 23:18:48 +0000 UTC]

I love the details on the background and the waterfalls but there is very little sense of depth. Maybe adding some more fog and a little more shadows would help to add more depth in the scene.

Thesis-D In reply to AltairSky [2013-05-27 03:44:36 +0000 UTC]

Yes, thank you. Some of my newer picture do a better job of atmospheric perspective than this one. This was also one of my earlier 'rock jobs' as it were.

Thank you very much. This one is older than my newest ones, but people seem to choose it when posted with the others. Maybe it's the native american theme? Or maybe it's the way I drew her? I'm not sure.

Pocahontas has nothing on her, and neither does John Smith for that matter! She'd snap one like a twig and make the other her manservant....but only if you pi$$ her off!

It helps to have an idea in mind for what you want. If you start with a solid idea the rest falls into place naturally.
