House of Myriah [UPDATED]

Share

Updated designs for my comic project.

Well, I'm one step closer to finalizing the art style for my Stranded Land comic. I want to break away from the traditional line-art and focus more on painting gouache. Still, this design concept still doesn't hold the right tone for the comic. At least there are some new and some re-designed characters for further development.

Behance (for all of them)

Lore bomb (if you're interested):
Before the House of Myriah, there were the Haser, followers of Hase. The Corsto describes them as "feral", "fanatic" and "obsessive". They once were a malevolent group of blood cultist. Their prophecy foretold that an adequate amount of fresh blood of pure Blood Nymphs that dye the entire realm with crimson rose color would summon the Great One, Hase, one of the three original Architects of the Stranded Realm. So they started harvesting all the Blood Nymph they could find and wasted no drop. Little did they know that Hase is a trickster and does not bind to any rule. Summoning him would be the beginning of all ends. Some cultists enlightened, grew tired of this insanity and decided to escape, along with any Blood Nymphs they could rescue to halt the rite. And that is when the House of Myriah come to be, the heart of Ghalt's Keep. Where they set up their new goal, preventing the summoning of Hase and protecting New Comers from the corrupted cult.

wow the designs are interesting tho i can't help but feel they're based on pre-existing charas o.O ...prob a coincidence.

very cool art

DatCakeIzEhPai responds:

Aye thanks m8. Well, I do draw them from inspiration of some existed characters. A short example: Criminal is based on Chuckle teeth in the X-Files and Vault boy in Fallout.

do you have any non affiliated or chaotic faction like they worship literal chaos they are fundamentally chaotic they technically aren't even a faction i would like to see that but maybe i'm a little too late or you may just wanna go your own way either way i just do it myself eh don't worry i'll win either way

DatCakeIzEhPai responds:

Well, the faction concept is a bit shallow atm and I'm working on expanding them more in term of narrative rather than the design. There will be a cult-like faction that literally worship chaos just in Call of Cthulhu and Tale of the Blackgoat with a Thousand Young.

Love the designs of your character!
I want to see where this is going.
Keep up the great work!

DatCakeIzEhPai responds:

Thank you. I'll try my best. There should be another and last overhaul on the design as I'm coming close to finishing up the treatments for the chapters. Have a good one m8!

I think Calibre is my favorite of the bunch,but seriously your characters are all good.

DatCakeIzEhPai responds:

Calibre was originally meant for the orange faction but after some thinking in term of color design, I have to say that the orange team has been scrapped so I have to shift some orange faction to the other three. Yes, I also have to make some fashion adjust to fit the theme of the faction. I'm not really confident enough right now, their colors seem too muddy. As we are speaking, I'm going over some color theory to ensure each characters have variety in color, style but still holds unity in each team. Thank you again!

Hey this looks really great, I'd love to collab with you sometime? Seems like this would fit in with the theme of my comic I'm creating!

DatCakeIzEhPai responds:

I'm not quite sure about collab work since my schedule has been very tight as school is about to start real soon. Still, I love to do some small collab with you. Message me and if you have Discord chat, we can talk more about it there!
