Description Concept of the Sphinx for the game I'm designing .

There will be more concepts like these but I don't know if I'll upload all of them. Also no, I did not go for the traditional sphinx so I don't need to be reminded that she's missing wings. And yes, she's got mane even though she's female, because I can and simply because it looks better!

Thanks to =Andantonius for the pencil brush <3.

A nice blending of animal and human in the face.

I really like the concept. Instead of doing just a plain human head you gave us a morphed version that is still very humaneness but looks natural with the rest of the body. I applaud you good woman.

Really beautiful line work and detail, the mane is perfect and the face suggests human but still feline aspects work really well. Also love the tail.

...I think that U draw traditional sphinx. In egyptian mitology sphinx don't have any wings...

CaraidArt In reply to neszer [2010-05-20 09:06:37 +0000 UTC]

The Egyptian sphinx doesn't have wings, true . But the Greek sphinx I think is the generally accepted idea. I quite like wingless creatures though.

I like both ideas...

That doesn/t change the fact, that Your design is really good I wish I could draw like You...

What game? Is it an independent one, or are you not allowed to talk about it?

Really great design; I like the three concepts I've seen so far, the Guide being my favorite (awesome wing-branch idea)

CaraidArt In reply to Rennar [2010-05-20 09:05:52 +0000 UTC]

It was just a game-in-theory, really . As an application-assignment for an art school I had to design a game. It wasn't the best but I made it in .

Thank you! I'm quite fond of the Guide's design myself too, I might actually use it some time later.

Not all Sphinx has wings though did they? o_O;

I do remember the rather humanoid faces though XD; I like your design.

CaraidArt In reply to Frazzled-Niya [2010-03-23 09:45:52 +0000 UTC]

In Greek mythology, Sphinxes have wings, this is the more common image of them . Egyptian Sphinxes don't have wings, but I'm not very fond of their design (and it's less known). They're basically lionesses with a regular human face on top xD.

Thanks a lot :3.

People like you deserve to have their dreams turned into reallity!

Have you tried contacting game companies like UbiSoft, Capcom etc, etc? It's not impossible, just give it a try, suggest your work and it may become a reality!

Oh, I'm flattered that you think this, but I seriously doubt that game producers of that size and popularity would be interested x3. I'm working towards a future there though, I've got a lot of time yet .

Thanks so much <3.

Never think that they are "too big of a class for you". Your ideas are fresh and original, and they are definitely usable

I wish you good luck and hope to see some of your designs on a screen, someday

CaraidArt In reply to Vrykol-akas [2010-03-14 10:26:45 +0000 UTC]

Perhaps, who knows . I'd first like to make it into art school, then when I'm done, I will introduce my ideas to bigger gaming industries and hope that perhaps I will start something big. I'd love to make a popular game of my own someday. It's a rather ambitious dream, but who knows what will happen .

It's just an assignment, though. I'm not designing an actual game or hoping to finalize it in any way . That doesn't mean I won't share any more concepts in the future though.
