Description On a roll and yet, more to come from my little travel book.

This is an idea I had for a game. I thought I could do a lot of things with the powers of Medusa. The reason This character is male is because I don't want the two to have anything to do with eachother since I was not intending to make "Super Medusa".

I didn't really put much effort into his design. I made it in a style that mached some backgrounds I had made before, so it's kind of Inca-like. I like Inca For some reason, I knew perfectly what colours to use when I was colouring this. (It saved me a bit of time too.)

Maybe I'll be making something with this guy, who knows. For now, just look at the picture

This is really cool! It's a neat character which has a lot of potential for nifty moves and skills, and as dramatic as this image is, I'm sure he can execute them all like a boss. Really like the stone equipment.

Nice concept! I like the Incan armor pieces and how the snakes are whip-like!
Hmm... I could see turning weaker enemies into stone to make platforms/items/etc, and the snakes SCREAM whip-like usage.

In other words, you just described how the demo I made works. :9

Yeah, I picked this up again and I've got a pretty solid engine, at least for the little I've made so far. The production is at a bit of a standstill, but it's not dead. I'm planning to make a more extensive use of those powers beyond simple platforming, if things go the right way.

That thing more likely reminds me of a cross between a colossus from Shadow of the Colossus, Megaman and Medusa (of the Greek mythology) rather than Midna (if you were implying that in your comment on the Midna picture).
It doesn't change a bit though that this picture is positively awesome in every way. I like the motion in it and the fact that you don't know if the bit of floor is actually a pillar he's standing on, or if it continues all around him.

Great work!

Actually, he's the result of several game ideas. In the end, I found a character based on Medusa's powers to be the most interesting. The Midna thing was just something that hit me as I was writing. Just don't want people claiming that my ideas are copied off more well known characters. Of course, this guy is based off Medusa (so it's probably not the bast example), but then only her powers. The context is something else alltogether. Incidently, I've picked up this project again. Probably not for long, but maybe I'll manage to develop his universe some more before I take another break.

Yes, I had that happening before - that people claimed that characters of mine were copied from something else. Sometimes it was even justified. However, in your case it's just pure nonsense. I don't think you need to worry too much about that.
I've been to your gallery several times now and I really enjoy looking at your art. Can we be friends?

I suppose, guess I just think about stuff like that too much.

Friends? Sure, why not. The more the merryer.
