Description Finally finished them!

Introducing my two new characters, Tharros and Fobos.

They are spirits. The physical embodiment of light and dark, hope and despair, courage and fear, good and evil. Without them, life and our world would not exist.

They must live in perfect harmony. One must never out balance the other, for it that were to happen, the world would descend into chaos.

This is the form they are most glimpsed in. However, they are gifted the power of shapeshifting. They can take on any form. However, they must both take on exactly the SAME form. The both must agree on the form they're about to take. Otherwise, one would outbalance the other.



The reason for each of them displaying markings of the opposite colours is quite simple.

As even in the darkest despair, there's always that glimmer of hope.

Even composed with the mightiest courage, there's a tiny shimmer of fear.

One cannot exist without the other. There is no light, without dark to be lit.

Heh, what can I say about the awesomeness of this picture that hasn't already been said?

I love it to death, the background is phenomenal and the way you draw dragons is beautiful, just like the concept of this piece!

Gimme a sec to give it 5/5!

I love this!! the characters are really cool, and detailed. but even more than the pic itself (which is AMAZING) i love the concept, because it's true. there is always an opposite, always something the counter-balance.

I'm so happy you think so

The characters were based on the concept. The concept's the most important part I laughed when the Good and Evil contest came out, because this piece fits it so perfectly

They're not actually called Ying and Yang. I just called the piece that as they symbolize Ying and Yang. Their names are Tharros and Fobos

I haven't seen any Ying and Yang based stuff for a while. What are the charm things clinging to their horns?

It helps them harness their power so they can shape-shift
