Description
Today's September 14th, which marks my 4th year here on deviantART. I thought I would celebrate by submitting this. 4th year of submitting art, and nearly 5 years since I started Inheritance art/read Eragon.Although this is simple, it clearly states who I think will be the green rider. Obviously Arya guys....anyways, re-did her design to include armour. Some of the bottom got cut off though, you SHOULD be able to see her whole hand....
SO, the first of many book 4 art, which I can't wait to do actual scenes. Guess what the first scene I draw will be, just guess. Because it totally can't be the epic AxE that will happen.
Anyways, about book 4 and art, my group is having a contest about what you think will happen in book 4. Draw what you think will happen and win awesome prizes. Each place wins a subscription and art works done by me. The level of detail depends on where you place and 1st place wins a 3 month subscription. Read more about it here: [link]
Done in Copic Markers and watercolour(background)

This is great!
I specially love the way you make her hair and armour design ^^

I love how you draw Arya! Firnen looks a bit like a chinese dragon to me here though.

beautiful! I love the costume/armor design you've created for arya, it suits her personality very much

I honestly wasn't expecting Firnen to be so dark in the book- I like Palencar's art a lot, but his portrayal of the dragons is...odd. And the only one whose color is the way I envisioned it is Glaedr's.

SPOILERS OF 4TH BOOK
Im provably going to be kicked for this but... I really hate the fact of Arya being the 3rd rider. I always knew that will happen, but I still hate it. I like Arya, she is strong, wise and beautifull, three tings I apreciate in a female character in a book, and that is the same reason that I hate her for being the 3rd rider.
-sighs- whatever. Im in love with this saga anyway! just as Harry Potter and The Kingkiller Chronicles.

I think though, that her becoming the 3rd rider isn't as important as people thought it would be. She's one of the first new riders, but there's going to be a lot more. Her role as a rider wasn't pivotal to the plot. Firnen wasn't the last egg, there's hundreds more.
I think her being a rider always fit her character. She saved Firnen's egg from the castle, and I don't think anyone deserved him more. None of the other characters fit the role.

I know all of that, Im not sayin is wrong or a bad idea, I just... dont like it at all. This saga is one of the most predictable books I read, the only thing I failed to see was the little fact that Murtagh survived in the end (wich make me extra happy), Arya is a character I really like (just like Angela and Elva).
I dont deny it fit her be a rider, but... -sighs- I dont know how to explain it... Im not too good at explaining things (much else my own thoughts je je je).
I like your art by the way. I especially enjoy the faces you give to the characters (specially Murtagh). Im not a fan of EragonxArya pairig, but I like how you draw them, she look really pretty, elegant and so sure of herself!
I have a few sketches of them but... my style don fit too well

Inheritance is predictable. It always has been since the first book. It also isn't the greatest thing ever or the best writing. I only read them because they're fun to read/to finish the series because I started reading them 6 years ago. (I mostly like drawing it)
So basically, you didn't want her to be rider, just cuz? So if you didn't want her to be the rider, who should have? I don't see anyone else fitting the role.
I was expecting Murtagh to die though. Paolini said he was going to do it too, but he chickened out. His death would have made him a stronger character.
But thank you, I've spent years working on these characters and their designs.

I really like the books no matter how predictable they are, I read a book for its characters and the development. Paolini give me a few surprices. Im not against Arya or hate her for being a rider (like some readers I see in the net), it fit her like you say. I supose I prefer for the identity of the 3rd rider not to be showed, I guess I like the no specific endings... english is not my first leguaje and Im not very good at it, its a little hard to find the words to explain.
Oh... I have your pic of Eragon, Arya and Murtagh as my wallpaper! I love how they look (specially Murtagh).

Copic markers and copic liners! Watercolor wash for the green background too.
Thank you!

I honestly wanted Roran to be the green rider. Arya annoys me too much but she is a good rider..I'll say that. But, still if Roran was the green rider then he would outlive Katrina and his daughter and such and such....
Amazing picture BTW! ^^

It looks like we were all right about who it would be huh? Fate has a cruel sense of humor. LOL

i loved this pic so much i had to comment twice :3
if i where to go back in time ( grade 1) and the teacher where to ask me what i wanted to be when i grow up... instead of saying a vetrenarian (now its changed) i would have said.
"MAM I WANT TO BE A FREAKING AWESOME, BUTT KICKING, BAD ASS ELF NAMED ARYA."

who here just dispises that the roran parts are bigger than the eragon and or arya parts

omg inheritance is out i bought it the day it came out! im so excited to finish it and see how he manages to kill galbatorix and who the green rider is! it did cross my mind that arya could be the green rider but idk it doesnt seem right
π: 0 β©: 1
Hope you enjoy the book! I'm done the book.
π: 0 β©: 1
i finished it too and found out who the green rider is
π: 0 β©: 0
hhhmmmmsss. i dont know... if arya became a rider then..... she would be the most powerful rider because shes an elf... OH SO EXCITING! but an awsome picture nonethe less!
π: 0 β©: 0
pretty cool picture, and it HAS to be Arya because christopher paolini said it himself that it would be a main character in the story, and that leaves: arya, nasuada, and orik. it couldn't be nasuada i highly doubt that, and orik is a dwarf, dragons dont like dwarves that much because they didn't sign the blood pact, so that leaves arya.
π: 0 β©: 0
Excellent art! I too, anticipate Arya as the next rider! I'm dying to find out what Greeni's real name is!
π: 0 β©: 0
what about nasuada!!!!!
like i have read all of the books that are out and nasuada as been in all of them
50% Arya 25% roren and 25% nasuada
π: 0 β©: 1
Yes she has and she's a candidate too. But I don't think she would handle being a rider well and a rider should not be leading the Varden. This is why Eragon doesn't, and why Brom never did either despite his help in creating the varden in the first place.
Arya matches up too perfectly, so I don't bother even considering the others.

I just found all your Inheritance art and find myself going through +faving it all o_o
As for the idea itself, I don't know about Arya being the last rider. Sure, it'd be convenient, she wouldn't have to ride Saphira, and they could all ride into the last battle together. Then again, it could be Roran - the whole family then would be riders. And it'd be nice to see Roran slay Murtagh, because in the end I don't really think Eragon could do it.

she is not perfect in my opinion she lost her first love has insecurities about having a relationship with eragon. She may be beutiful but beauty isn't everything. This is why I like her. She also tends to come off a bit arrogant but really she has come so far in the books her character has grown and become better in my opinion and I am 100% sure she will be the next dragon rider for the green dragon. It would explain eragon's dream and epic love predicted by angela the witch.

I cant wait for Inheritance to be released :3
Arya looks awesome here ^^

If Arya does not become the last rider, Christopher Paolini and I will have WORDS. -.-

I love the art but with Arya being the princess I really think Vanir will be the thrid dragon rider awsome job though armors really cool (Everyones sure the green dragon will be a boy? I am but I wonder why everyone else is)
π: 0 β©: 1
Can't be Vanir, it has to be someone who has been present in all the books, and Vanir first appeared in Eldest.
And people know it's a male dragon because Murtagh said it was. Galby was able to tell.

oh ok but why does it have to be some one that was in every book? just because he said there were three eggs doesnt nessasarily mean that he'd decided who would be the rider yet does it? or did I miss something else?
π: 0 β©: 1
Paolini said in one of his interviews that the last rider has appeared in each book.

Not to be a perv, but according to the female anatomy, her breasts look miniaturized, not like "small" breasts but like her chest was shrunk some how.
Other than that awesome drawing skills!
π: 0 β©: 1
Thanks!
I think it may be the armour. Usually the breasts that I draw are pretty okay/if not too big.
π: 0 β©: 0
That's fine for your opinion. Mine is that she is, just saying.
π: 0 β©: 0
this was cool.
I don't like Arya, because Eragon offered his heart and Arya just rejected him!
π: 0 β©: 1
LOL, but it would be lame if Arya just accepted him right off the bat. This makes for a better romance.
Plus Arya has her reasons. Eragon wasn't exactly thinking straight that night either.
π: 0 β©: 1
Mm.
The agaeti blΓΆdhren was one of my favorite parts. If Arya became the new Rider, it would be nice with a female Rider. I can't bear until book 4!

We'll finally know in November!

Yeah, you'll know!
But I'm a swede and I has a bit hard with the language of english. At least Paolini's.
