Description I really don't know what's up with my use of rosy backgrounds lately...O_O;;

Zeboim and Chemosh, gods of the sea and dead, respectively. Uncanon pairing, I know, but I think they look cool together.

Zeboim is easily one of my favorite DL characters, because she acts very...real. As in snotty and tempestuous and vain just like the little princess goddess of evil she is. I like unlofty god characters. She's cooler than Chemosh, anyway. Plus her name sounds like some Old Testament hero or something.

And my right hand hurts...shouldn't have tackled over half the painting in one day....ack...

Zeboim is beautiful. Chemosh is a little lifeless :]

Love it. I Prefer Chemosh. Hard. And more than that, Mina and Takhisis. But it's still an awesome picture.

She really has proved to be one of the more interesting characters. I'm just starting Amber and Blood now. I hope to see more of her.
Your rendition of both her and Chemosh are lovely.

Thank you! Zeboim's a really entertaining character. Chemosh not so much, but he is pretty

Hahaha. Very uncanon pairing, but so funny! Considering she virtually hates him You've really captured Zeboim's attitude in this. That's pretty much how I picture her- Slightly devious, moody, ready to either rip your head off or reward you--depending on her mood, of course.

Zeboim's a bitch, isn't she? Gotta love the gal.

But Chemosh is pretty cool. Have you read the Dark Disciple trilogy yet? Chemosh's personality is explored quite a bit. He's actually quite... well, quite sweet. In a possessive, obsessive, walk-all-over-the-one-you-love kind of way.

I loved him in the first book (me: MMM VAMPIRE )but in the second book he's kind of floundering and stupid, which is kind of fun, in a way.

It's funny at the beginning of the first book he's like, "All I've got are old people worshipping me. >:c and throwing dead cats at me. wtf."

Oh yes. One second he's insulting him, the next "My dear brother!" XD Love makes fools of us all. I was all "Awwwwwww" when he thought Mina was dead. What was the quote again? "No mortal, not even a dead one, should see a god cry". Up until that point, I wasn't really sure if he loved her. I always get all mushy when the bad guys fall in love and show their tender sides.

thenumber42 In reply to Galad-Damodred [2007-12-14 07:31:50 +0000 UTC]

That part got me too. He was distant and controlling, but when he thought she was gone I just...*sniff* *pats the man...er, god*

He's a weird fellow. At that point it seemed like he wanted to love Mina as an equal, but once she starts getting her superdivine powers he's like "gr they like you not me wtf I shall boss you around to show you who's boss >:C"

Multiple personality disorder? XD

Nah, he's probably afraid that she'll surpass him and become greater than him and then she won't love him any more 'cuz he's so far beneath her...

And that bombshell at the end of Amber and Iron! O___O Mina's a God of Light!

Zeboim IS a snot I agree....shes just one big ocean snotball...xDDDD

One thing I should point out is the hands on Zeboim's back they look like little noodles....cute but creepy....maybe work on that nexts times?

YAY! A fan of dragonlance! ^-^

I didn't realize they'd be confused as Chemosh's fingers until now...lol. Maybe a different color would help.

Yes, that would always help ^-^

but if that means redoing alot of stuff, then don't really do it for my sake. I think it looks ok

Looks like you had more inspiration for drawing Zebiom than you did for Chemosh - or you had more fun, anyway. She looks amazingly evil, AND you made her look good with bright green eye-shadow.

thenumber42 In reply to GreyDazed [2007-06-03 07:07:37 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, Chemosh is kinda by-the-Anne-Rice-book, Zeboim not quite as detailed in the book (either that or I totally missed her descriptive paragraph). What can I say? I love dresses.

Now that I look at her, she reminds me of...*snaps fingers* Tia Dalma from POTC.

Very nice. Love Chemosh's ruffles and Zeboim's pearls. Heh, and "Zeboim" was a city that got destroyed with Sodom and Gomorrah in the Bible.
