Description Finally some Lodoss fanart again i already felt guilty, that i didn't submit something for such a long time... especially since i have alot sketched, that only needs to get outlined + coloured. This year, yes!

I noticed that many RoLW fanarts are either redrawn pictures from the original animes or art, which always shows the same characters, the elves seem to be the fav motive for fans (no wonder - they're lovely). So i thought i do something different, a scene, that is not shown in the films.

And sorry for this awful colouring, i wanted to try out a new way to shade, but i guess i do that just once. It's so blurry...

-------------

I rewatched the whole anime a few weeks ago and rememberd a small conversation between Ashram and Neese, where he wanted to know, where Brahmds' treasures are. The priestess was shocked as she heard, that he had killed the peaceful dragon Brahmd and told him, that he gave all his treasures to her years ago and she used it to restore the temple of the godess Marfa. ... and Ashram left the place to slay the next dragon.

Oh...wow.
Mehr fällt mir nicht ein..das Bild ist der Hammer.
Alleine dieser imposante Drache und diese hübsche Lady
verschlagen mir die Sprache.
Ich weis nicht,aber diese Szene kommt mir win wenig bekannt vor.
*die chroniken vom Erdsee* sagt dir warscheinlich nicht viel.
Auf jedenfall ist das Bild wunderschön geworde.

Hoi Benny, lange nix mehr von dir gehört !
Vielen Dank für dein Lob, das freut mich echt, da ich das Ding ursprünglich überhauopt nicht fertigmalen wollte, da es nur eine kleine Skizze war, die ich dann einfach digital vergrößert habe.

Die Chroniken von Erdsee kenne ich schon, war aber nicht sonderlich davon angetan, da sie so düster und hilflos wirkten. Da gefällt mir Record of Lodoss War tausendmal besser... auch wenns ebenfalls düster ist.

Moin. Ja das stimmt.
War viel los in den letzten Jahren. Da kam einiges zu kurz.
Ausserdem wollte ich mich niemanden aufdrängen.
Was hast du denn in letzter Zeit so unternommen und erlebt?

Hat sich doch gelohnt es fertig zu stellen. Mir gefällt es sehr gut.
Den Film kenne ich gar nicht. Klingt sehr spannend. Mal sehen ob er auf youtube ist. Dann habe ich wieder einen Grund Abends einen Film zu sehen

Macht ja nichts, ist bei mir genauso. Ich müsste eigentlich mal zwei,drei Tage 24 h online auf DA sein um alles Nachrichten zu beantworten. Ich finds schon immer unangenehm, wenn ich es 2 Monate später schaffe, zurück zu antworten.
Was ich unternommen habe? Öh, nicht sonderlich viel, um ehrlich zu sein. Momentan bereite ich mich auf meinen Bachelor in Geschichte vor, fange morgen mit einem Praktikum bei der Diakonie an und habe vorletzte Woche die Wohnung von meiner Oma mit ausgeräumt. Schwerstarbeit!
Letzte Woche war ich krank, hatte so eine richtig schöne Grippe.


Irgendwie kennt den keiner xD, obwohl er doch recht populär ist. Naja ist ja auch schon 20 Jahre alt und diese Animewelle ist ja erst in den letzten 10 Jahren so richtig nach Deutschland geschwappt. Oder so.

Also ich kann ihn dir nur wärmstens empfehlen, ich find ihn super, vor allem die schönen Charakterdesigns und den Zeichenstil. Viel detaillierter als die Animes von heute.

Ich hab dir mal den YT Link der ersten Folge rausgesucht. Viel Spass beim Gucken! --> [link]

Das verstehe ich gut. Mir erging es nicht anders. Je mehr es wurden desto mirser fühlte man sich bei einem Blick in die messagebox. Zum Glück ist es fast geschafft. Aber es wird dir auch keiner etwas krum nehmen,wenn es mal länger dauert.
Uih..respekt! Ein Bachelor Studium. Und der Themenbereich Geschichte klingt interessant. Wie bist du denn aif diesen Zweig gekommen?
Dann wünsche ich dir viel Spass bei deinem Praktikum.
Das Glaube ich dir. Eine Wohnung zu enträumen ist äusserst anstrengend.Oh man und auch noch eine Grippe. Und du sagst es ist nicht viel Geschehen.

Ich hab mir mal deinen Link angesehen. Ein sehr cooles Prolog. Sehr schön gezeichnet und die Geschichte ist sehr episch.
Ich stimme dir in allen Punkten zu. Ich werde mir die anderen Teile auch mal gelegentlich ansehen.^^ Danke nochmal.

Jetzt wollte ich hier schon so oft hintexten und immer hat die Technik dazwischengefunkt. ^^ Weiß kaum mehr was ich sagen wollte.
Als das Bild in der Vorschau ausgetaucht ist hab' ich auch erst mal ncht erkannt das das von dir war. Hat 'n ganz anderes flair, nicht schlecht.
Aber was meinst du nur mit verschwommen? Gerade die Figueren sehen doch gestochen scharft aus, nur der Hintergrund ist recht flüssig, nur der ist nun auch nicht im Fokus. Da verwirrst du mich etwas. Der Vordergrund ist ja so 'ne Art weiches Cellshading und sieht wie gesagt immer noch schön schnittig aus. Nur die Outlines sind relativ unsauber - wenn du schon über was meckern willst.
Und die Szene hast du auch schon gestaltet. Wie die im Vergleich winzigen Hände da auf den riesigen Drachenschädel treffen. Uuuh, dramatisch.

Ah Brahmd!
i adore him too! he got such a interesting look
the drawing looks really nice like always
i adored the landscape too! the coloring looks good but i personally prefer your other style

ah i remember that scene of the anime..
why why Ashram you killed Brahmd D:

Aarok In reply to Svartya [2013-01-18 10:55:27 +0000 UTC]

Aww thank you so much :3

Yes, i like my normal style also more, but i wanted to imitate the style of the anime this time, with more or less success.

Well knights and dragons are just predestinied enemies... i rarely heard of the opposite. Dragonheart maybe? But should i tell you something? Would've been worser, if Brahmd would've killed Ashram !

you welcome
it got cool XD but i think i know what kind of style you are talking about those typical anime ones with only one shading O3o i don't know how do that too :/ but that does not bother me XD

yes rarely D: and How to train your dragon XD and a game called Lair huh but the examples are rare unfortunately...
yeah maybe O3o
or both die lol

Netarliargus [2013-01-09 03:18:18 +0000 UTC]

Nice work, I think the shading looks fine, leans coser to the original art style. I feel like the pine trees at the bottom could have been a bit more refined as they're closer to the foreground and the backgroud could use a tad more contrast if I compare it to the more vivid coloration of the dragon. Overall, a nice experiment so to say. Hope you picked up a few new useful tricks while working on this one.

Aarok In reply to Netarliargus [2013-01-09 14:04:00 +0000 UTC]

Thank you, yes that was, what i wanted to try out, since i just love this detailed Lodoss Characters, where you can see every single strand of hair.

That's true, i somehow added the trees to fill the empty mountains a bit but i didn't paid much attention at their details, just at their size :/.

I hope so too.

Aquilla-Whingate [2013-01-08 19:32:24 +0000 UTC]

I am not familiar with this anime it seems whether this is a representation from an actual scene or none at all. I think this is a nice image of a priestess in this case gently touching the nose of a peaceful dragon. I think the sunset in the background is a nice touch and a warm sentiment to this image as a whole it looks quite well in my opinion.

Aarok In reply to Aquilla-Whingate [2013-01-09 14:07:35 +0000 UTC]

As i mentioned in the discription of the picture it is based on a conversation, that two characters have, but such a scene does not exist in the anime itself.

Thank you

It's no problem. Aye, that it does, for an old anime, it's a bloody good one! Unlike some that I've seen, you get the good old then the bad old o-e and it's usually the good old like RoLW that's forgotten

Wish fulfilled! I already gave a link to another person yesterday, so i post it for you too, you do not need to search it then . [link]

I know what you mean, next the the Ginga Series it is one of my faves, if not my absolute fav anime . I think in our times, there are so many different animes, that you sometimes do not know, which one you should watch and which one not, plus through the improvement of making films now on PC, they can be produced faster, but often with less quality.

Thesis-D [2013-01-07 22:35:42 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I know what you mean about alot of Lodoss art just being traces and scans and no original art; then again, its like that with almost every anime out there.

Its good you decided to try and use a scene from the show, but then draw it yourself with a different environment. Good job, overall. You can tell that Brahmd has a connection and gratitude to Neese and so guards her diligently.

And yes, I remember that scene with Ashram. I even remember the quotes.

"Then you must have seen Brahmd?"

"Indeed! He gave me a rather nasty welcome. But I'm sure the ice dragon regrets that now."

"I can't believe you'd attack and kill a hibernating dragon!....or would you?!"

Aarok In reply to Thesis-D [2013-01-08 08:22:19 +0000 UTC]

That's true. I guess many are just too lazy to come up with personal ideas, or want to imitate the animes' style. But i have to admit, that there are also differences between the traces, some only trace the lineart, while others really have some quality shading or more.

Thank you Seems that i suceeded with the expressions then... it's always so hard to draw expression on a dragon without making him/her look derpy. Background was totally random, i just thought the temple would be in a region with hills and trees? No idea ^^.

I didn't even know, that some dragons hibernate, but that surely explains, why Ashram could kill this dragon on his own. Somehow that's pretty impressive.
