Description

Inktober Day 2, Scales

Monster Mythos:

Lizard folk, like most reptiles are cold blooded beings and need to regulate their body temperatures. You can find Lizard folk living in swamps and tropical forests. Lizard folk have sharp claws and strong, flexible tails. Each Lizard folk has a unique scale patterns much like each human has their own unique finger prints.

Although, Lizard folk have humanoid features and can live along side people and other beings, they lack empathy and understanding of emotion. If the opportunity arises, they are quick to turn on their companions and even see them as a food source at times. Their lack of empathy and emotion makes them cold and calculated killers. It may seems cruel and unusual but, to them, they see opportunity and will take it in a split second. They use their cunning and sharp minds to calculate and execute with skill and precision. Making them a deadly foe.

You should try the Lizard from Spider-Man sometime.

Hi~ I'm from ~

I just HAD TO leave a comment under this piece, because I simply love The Reptilians. This is an amazing topic and I am happy that I found your drawing!
First of all, the style. I absolutely love this style! I am such a sucker for a lineart and yours is gorgeous! Simple, clear and detailed in some parts~ I also like that the lines aren't the same, some are thin and some are thick~

I love the anatomy. His body looks lovely, and, I must say, HOT. He is one, handsome reptile here.
I like how slim, elastic, flexible and smooth he looks like, kinda like a snake. This body surely lets to sneak to his prey.
I love these round nipples -w-. It's a nice change from the scales and the straight lines of his chest and belly.
His tail looks so adorable! Swaying behind him and wrapping around a branch~
One thing that catches my eye - his lateral deltoid muscles look a little off his body, like it is more an armor than a part of his body~

The pose is really nice for eye. Manly and getting ready to attack from his hide.

Gorgeous face. I love the spikes on his head, it adds some rebellious style to his design.
His eye looking right at us is kinda creepy. Like he would know we're behind the screen...

The scales look really good. It must have taken forever to draw, right?~ Nice that you made them smaller on the face, around the eyes and on the tail.

The shadows are well done and in the right places on his body. I only wish the branches would get more of the shadows and the darker and thicker texture~

I like the locations of the branches. And nice idea with the spider nets here and there~

Have a Happy New Year and keep going, because you're really talented~

You have my thanks for your wonderful comment! I am very great full for you taking the time to comment on my work. Oh those scales did take a while do to. But, I really wanted to make patterns and put individual scales on this boi. Thanks so much for noticingΒ  Β

Commenting for .

Ah, the lizard man! He looks like he's looking for something. Your drawing is very great, and I like how it looks like. It might be unique, especially how it's drawn by pencils. Nice work!

Oh I absolutely love the line work that you did, those scales must have taken a very long time! I think that tree looks a little flat and maybe like it doesnt have enough texture? Adding some knobs to it that the lines curve into would give it a some more depth and a more real texture. I also think that the arms might be a little long and you could use some more structure in the fingers (they may be lizards, but even they have some kind of toes). The arm reaching up towards the tree branch also looks a little off, and while Im not quite sure how to explain, I think it would help you to look at a reference of an arm bending in the saw way that his is doing. It just looks as if it may be broken from the angle that its from. I do think that this piece is very strong and full of potential, however! I absolutely love this lizard man, all of the different textures presented, and overall I think you did an amazing job! The spiderwebs were a nice touch, and I think just a couple of leaves could have really brought the background together.
(This is my first comment, sorry if its a little rough! >< ProjectComment )

Oh, yes. The scales did take several hours and a few hand cramps later lol. Thank you for pointing out the trees. I wanted to give them texture without taking away from the scale texture so I did a simpler texture on them. But, I do see what you are saying about them looking flat. I am still trying to figure out ways to use ink and how to build with it. For the limbs, I wanted to give him lanky almost snake like look by giving longer arms and body. I shall have to practice more and play with different body type to master this skill better.Β 


Thank you for you comment and feed back. Your first comment was most helpful

Not too far off. I base this guy a little on a DnD character but, I can definitely see the similarities

Y'sure they're emotionless thoughts? Because that'd be... sad. Ok that may be a poor choice of words.

EshiSnu In reply to KitFox-the-Fluffball [2019-11-22 06:32:13 +0000 UTC]

Maybe not emotionless, more like, they don't really fully understand emotions. Or at least, human emotions.

KitFox-the-Fluffball In reply to EshiSnu [2019-11-23 17:40:40 +0000 UTC]

That makes more sense.

They probably wouldn't convey every emotion the exact same way.
