What kind of game are you making?

Sorry, I don't understand what you're saying.

A young King Memnon practices his country's famous archery skills. Memnon was a legendary King of Aethiopia (also known as Nubia or Kush) who fought the Greek demigod Achilles during the Trojan War. Memnon was said to have divine ancestry himself (keeping in line with Nubian traditions of divine kingship) and a noble personality.

Unlike most of my artwork which I color in Photoshop, this time I used Adobe Illustrator for the lines, background, and colors.

Thank you very much!

Here is something I did today for my you get sister.

Very cute cartoon style she has! Her arms remind me of a Powerpuff Girl's.

Here's an old one from near the beginning of the year...

Perseus and Andromeda Embrace

The Greek demigod Perseus embraces the beautiful Aethiopian princess Andromeda, but Poseidon's sea monster Cetus is ready for a rematch.

In Greek mythology, Andromeda was a princess of Aethiopia (i.e. "land of the burnt faces", usually referring to ancient Kush or Nubia in what is now Sudan) whom Perseus rescued from Cetus in a classic example of the damsel-and-dragon narrative. Perhaps the most well-known adaptations of this myth for modern audiences are the Clash of the Titans movies (I am referring to both the Harryhausen and Sam Worthington versions here), but I referenced none of these when drawing my own take. Perseus's winged helmet does owe some inspiration to Benvenuto Cellini's sculpture though. As for Cetus, I chose to represent him as some kind of Mesozoic sea reptile like a mosasaur or pliosaur.

I apologize if Perseus looks bored here. He's supposed to be nervously eying Cetus on the side.

Most of my art has as its subject matter prehistoric wildlife, historical figures, or fantasy characters. I've already uploaded a bunch of artwork onto the Newgrounds Art Portal, but was curious what the forum's community had to say about my stuff.

This first picture depicts Hannibal Barca, the great general of ancient Carthage, riding his war elephant across the Alps in 218 BC.

I am a amateur artist. In the future, I intend to take several art classes and go professional. Let me start this thread with a drawing of an Egyptian warrior queen (actually the protagonist of a novel I am working on):

To be honest, your DeviantArt stuff, while not exactly bad, does have a sketchy quality to it. Maybe considering inking and coloring it?

Right now, anthropology and public speaking. I intend to become an artist or novelist someday.

what are you, 10?

Since when was any age too old for someone to love dinosaurs?

Hello NG,

I am a 20-year-old college student whose main hobbies are drawing and writing. My favorite subjects are dinosaurs, prehistoric life in general, ancient civilizations (e.g. the Egyptians, Nubians, and Mayans), and hot black women. I joined this community so I could show off my art.

A little warning: I have Asperger's Syndrome, a type of autism. Therefore, I have problems with social skills sometimes.
