Description "Friends that slay together, stay together."

Let's see... a lot to say about this. First, apparently an Umlaut not allowed in deviation titles. Lame. So you guess where it's supposed to go

On the art itself:

Pretty much what I said about it in the scraps section. I really can't draw guns well, so I'll stick with more um, alternative ways of close-range combat. It's a lot less bloody that what I had in mind, too. Max's colors of his fur and uniform have changed because my monitor has decided that the same range of greys that I use are now GREEN. So, fuck it. It's a black uniform and Max is now a lighter grey. I could make him pink Debated on doing more textures but I felt that would take away from a comicbook style. The building in the background, yes, was modeled after Auschwitz's "gate to hell". Anyone following the story I am doing will understand why. I wish I had made this a higher resolution because it would look nice on my livingroom wall

On the characters/scene:

Ol' Doc Grausam and Max Sharp lead stressful lives. With running a new government set out on the genocide of the faithful followers of the old religion, who wouldn't? And what better way to relieve that stress than a day of slaughter in the killing field? A favorite past time of these two! Max prefers going after the stronger workers (he says that it makes the weaker ones work harder and leads to more suffering, something he enjoys seeing), and Tyler enjoys hacking up the children. Sometimes they even team up. Max'll drag a prisoner down, give him or her the Kiss of Death, and Tyler will decapitate them shortly afterwards.

I had a good time doing this. I hope y'all like it.

I don't think I've commented on this one before on FA, but I thought I'll comment here, since I have questions that somewhat involve the contents of the description and picture.

I am asking there for the purpose of the contest. Although they also help slowly fulfill my desire to learn of the characters and their world, they are mainly for assisting my entry to the contest.


1. What exactly was the old religion? Was it Christianity? Something similar? or something else entirely?

I admit I am a Christian, but I don't think I'll get mad if that is the religion that is persecuted in this story. I have various reasons for not getting mad, though some say I should be furious if it is. And if it is, I seriously doubt I'll get mad at you, but unfortunately, some people will persecute you if that is indeed the religion, most likely other Christians.

But I won't persecute. Christianity is not about persecution or guilt trips and other things like that. Unfortunately, some people think it is, and some give them good reasons why to think that.

Anyways...

2. Is the technology in the world the way it was during World War II in real life? I am wondering how advanced their technology is. Would you also give examples of how there technology is different from ours, whether from World War II or throughout history, please? I'm not sure if there are any "fantastic" elements in the world, like walking tanks, but that one picture of Eve in MechInk made me wonder...

3. Why was the old war fought exactly?
This is just a guess, but it was probalby started by the old religion, huh?
And if it was the old religion that started it, it was probably for a lame reason, right? I may be wrong, though.
Would you please correct me if I am?

I think that is enough questions now. I may ask more if I need answers.

HOWEVER, it is up to you whether or not to give me the answers.

I won't force or nag you to do so; it would be rude, for one thing. Also, you may not have gotten the details down yet, or you don't want to ruin what you have plan, or you just don't want to say.

I thank you for many things, which include, but are not limited to, putting up with me, my long comments, my questions, and holding the contest that gives me a reason to do a story with your characters, which leads to my thank you for making the characters, their world, and putting the info and art pieces you have on the internet where I could discover such a wonderful story.

Thanks again. You've done an excellent job on the art and story.

I wish you well!

Haha time for a break up of the questions again!

1. What exactly was the old religion? Was it Christianity? Something similar? or something else entirely?

Seeing as how this doesn't take place on our Earth, it's not our Christianity (I'm a Lutheran). Their religion is a type of polytheism. There is a precursor to this story that explains those gods.

2. Is the technology in the world the way it was during World War II in real life? I am wondering how advanced their technology is. Would you also give examples of how there technology is different from ours, whether from World War II or throughout history, please? I'm not sure if there are any "fantastic" elements in the world, like walking tanks, but that one picture of Eve in MechInk made me wonder...

The only thing based off of WWII in this story is the holocaust and Max was based on Hitler. (and a few unpleasant men from my past) The technology would be a little bit more than ours, I guess. I'm not good with futuristic ideas.

3. Why was the old war fought exactly?
This is just a guess, but it was probalby started by the old religion, huh?
And if it was the old religion that started it, it was probably for a lame reason, right? I may be wrong, though.

The old war was a stupid territorial war. That one had nothing to do with religion... the one Sharp is running now is to eliminate the religion that is 'hindering everyone's lives'. The experiences he and his two friends had in the older war fanned the flames for the recent one.

Thanks again. You've done an excellent job on the art and story.

I wish you well!


And as always, thank you for your really well thought out comments and questions. I like it when people look past the 2d art and get into the character's mind and the story.

Amazing colouring work on already amazing lines. The story and little paragraph you wrote explaining the pic are kind of twisted, but I like that sort of thing.

Max looks so crazy with his eye all O.- and the blood running down his face from his CRAZY CRAZY smile. <3 The smoke from his cig looks so great, I love it.
The chainsaw is so wonderful<333333333333333333333 and I love the blood splatters you put all over it's pretty.
The head on a thing is kind of scaring me with its terrified beheaded stare. This would make a good Halloween pic.
OOH I didn't even notice the sky which looks sexy. I love the colours you used and the texture. Almost like peeling paint. Only...it's a sky.

Haha I love it that people see one left eye closed and know it's Max! I REALLY like how the chainsaw came out as well.

Twisted is what I am for. These guys are crazy, a PTSD effect from a war they were in. My story shows aspects of war and the effect it has on people.
