Description Description of Lateon:
He is more angular than a Lati. his ears go up and suddenly angle backwards.

His spikes and claws are much longer than a regular Lati. And his tail has 5 'spikes' on it. The outer two being longest, while the center one is second longest.

He also has the large Guidecrystal embedded into his back and the shape on his forehead is more like a diamond.
________________________________________________

EDIT: 8/08/09, If you want to see how much of an improvement the most recent reference is, then look below.


It's about time I made a reference picture for Lateon.
The fact that other people are drawing him now is a surprise to me in itself.
Not that I'm complaining though.

So here he is, I JUST got GIMP 2 here last week. So I'm trying to get some practice in with it.

So I figured, "Why not practice AND make the reference pic of Lateon at the same time?"
So I did.

And it's sucky. I spent HOURS trying to figure this thing out.
And boy oh boy did I ever make him shiny!
Better put your sunglasses on!

Oh and yes, that is my sad attempt at his move, Blade of Reckoning.

I'm a little disoriented now. An upgrade from Ms Paint straight to a high-quality Photoshop-ish program is definitely the reason for that.

Either way, I do hope you enjoy my experiment in the world of newer art programs!

EDIT: 10/29/08 I figured out how to change the filetype. So I posted the higher quality version of the pic.
No more copy/pasted screenshots into Ms Paint for you!


Lateon, his design and his name are (c) of me, =Vypor
As is this picture.

I was wondering, how big is Lateon compared to Latias?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Vypor In reply to Tallest-Ariva [2009-05-14 23:09:45 +0000 UTC]

Lateon is 10 foot 3 inches from nose to tip of tailfin, and 9 foot 4 inches wide from wingtip to wingtip.

Latias (in TCC) is about 5 and a half feet long.

Dark-Teioh In reply to Vypor [2008-10-29 16:23:50 +0000 UTC]

I've been making games for a while sometimes now...been a months since I've slowly worked on it nowadays. Right now there's only few character of the following: Cyan, Hilda, Snake, Ocleon, Gassan, Natsuri and Teioh. Yet, I haven't planned of a certain character but I know one of your character will be in it soon enough once I've finally come up with a right plan.

It's fun when you're really working on your own game...except when you have total block (Can't think up of any ideas such as Artist's block, Writer's block ETC except that it's all block in one)

Vypor In reply to Dark-Teioh [2008-10-30 01:04:56 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, any kind of block is bad.
Unless of course you happen to be talking about a block of fudge.
