Jaraden's drawings

<img300*0:stuff/trapped_demon,_annoying_pixies....jpg>

there is a whole back story i have planned for this character. and like everything else i plan out, it is incredibly long winded. but basicly this is a demon who has become trapped in the realm of my book(s) and has been held prisoner by the faries and pixies of a mystical wood for a thousand years... there is more to it then that, but theres a tiny taste.

<img300*0:stuff/halloween_submission...jpg>

yup, it's me halloween drawing.. take some of that.. now give me a bledding badge!!! har har!

<img300*0:stuff/godd_lord,_it%27s_Laornar!.jpg>

originally i had dome a numbre of character studies for my book(s), but frankly, i wasn't happy with any of them except this one. this is Laornar, i won't go into who he is cause there'll be a character study wiki coming shortly..
so there!

<img300*0:stuff/yes_guy,_it%27s_Jaraden!.jpg>

Jaraden happens to be my favorite character i ever created, he's been with me since i was a kid and has grown with me since. this is a study of him later in the future of my universe, mainly because the sword he carries has not been discovered until much later then my book(s).. so there.

<img300*0:stuff/yeah,_it%27s_Jaraden_again!.jpg>

yup, this is another study of Jaraden, but this time in the distant past even before the kingdom of Aultenvique was established.. there's actually a long story behind this image and why an elf would be clothed in such a manner.. but that must be left to another time!

<img300*0:stuff/yet_another_demon.._yar!.jpg>

yeah, i designed another demon way back in the day. but can you see the glaring error i made??? if you can then you'll win a prize!!! har har

<img300*0:stuff/yup,_it%27s_Jaraden_yet_again!.jpg>

yet another study of my main character Jaraden... having said that in my book(s) he's actually a secondary character, but that's besides the point.. i wanted to do a study of Jaraden's dragon scale armour, which like everything else has a lengthy back story.. what a surprise. anyhow i think it turned out well and once i colour it you'll notice the pulsating fire eminating from his left hand.. incase you were wondering why there is only half of him... or maybe not..

<img300*0:stuff/good_lord,_it%27s_an_orc!__run!.jpg>

just like the LOTRs one of my main fiendish creatures are orcs, so i thought i'd do a study of them, and now that i think of it, i should be doing more of them, this one is ancient! anyhow, hope you like it! go go monsters!

another of deadly races is the Ogre, much larger then it's cousin the Orc and though not as intelegent is far more vicious. like the orc i desided to do a study of them, and like the previous picture i now realsie i should rejuvinate it.. still i do so love this drawing! ME CRUSH!

yet another drawing i did at my last place of employment, and yeah, it was all in pen as well.. this creature i do actually have a back story for and lengthy plans to utilise this race in furture book(s), if i get the chance.. hope youlike em, and now that i think of it, i should draw up some more monsters... i is lovin me monsters!!!!!!

<img300*0:stuff/scary_shadowy_monster_dude....jpg>

i drew this one at my last place of employment completely with a biro-pen.. i have no idea how to use this creature in my book, but it looks wicked cool anyways!

2008-12-01 [moira hawthorne]: alaskian king crab legs! yummmy! but they are so expensive! I love them more than lobster.. and shimp is the cheep version... frozen shrimp is just yucky... blah... have to have that red tomatoe suace b/c they are tasteless without it

2008-12-01 [Yuriona]: My brother actually did some giant tiger shrimp on the bar-be-que this weekend. OMG! They were soooo good! XD Crab legs are yummy too but they're so hard to open. Gah...

2008-12-01 [Jeccabee]: I've never actually had the large crab legs...just the little ones as an appitizer...ate them all up! mmm
I'm not a huge shirmp fan either..unless it's in something like pasta. And I dont like labster either. I wish I did cause it's so pretty, but I just dont have the taste for it. :(
OOOH but I do love calimari! mmmmmmm

2008-12-01 [moira hawthorne]: oooooh yes!calimari! love them dry fried or in pasta...

2008-12-01 [Jeccabee]: hmm never had it in pasta...but sounds good! Course I have had it when it was over cooked...NOT GOOD! too chewy.

mmm now I want some pasta with shrimp. Only an hour till lunch!

2008-12-01 [Yuriona]: Mmmm... calimari is definitely delicious! I've always wondered what octopus tastes like but I've never seen it here other than uncooked and I don't know how to prepare it.

2008-12-01 [Jeccabee]: I wish I did. I'd love to make up some nice calimari!

I've also tried es cargo (sp?) by accident. I though I was ordering calimari (got the names mixed up). When I got the dish I was like...this isnt es cargo (still thinkin calimari in my head). Then my dad figured it out and told me what it was. I tried it since I had it there...and it wasnt bad! It was German style (out of the shell) and on crackers.

2008-12-01 [moira hawthorne]: over cookin is no good... rubbery... or if it was frozen before cookin it can be rubbery... blah... poorly cooked food is never fun! food is a necessity... but it is also one of the great pleasures in life... right up there with sex and avoiding taxes!

2008-12-01 [Yuriona]: Escargot - its french for 'snails'. ^_^ I love them in lots of garlic butter and still in the shell. You get a little fork to pry them out with! My sister once said they're like 'fishy bubblegum'! LOL!

2008-12-01 [Jeccabee]: Ah yeah...that's how it's spelled! Yeah I figured it out after a while that it was snails and not squid. But it came in this plate with lil bowls in it with each unshelled snail in some sort of sauce. And you put it on a cracker. It was at a German restaurant, so I figured it was how they fixed it. But it said Escargot on the menu.

2008-12-01 [Yuriona]: Its a certain type of snail I think which is why that word is used. I could be wrong about that though. I sure as heck wouldn't try cooking North American snails. ><

2008-12-01 [moira hawthorne]: Escargot are yummy too... and oysters! fresh... just slice open the shell and slide them down or baked with garlic and butter and stuff... even clams are good that way

2008-12-01 [Yuriona]: I like smoked oysters and mussels myself. I've never been brave enough for raw oysters. I've tried fresh water clams and crayfish before and they're not bad but you have to really rinse them to get all the sand out of them. O_o

2008-12-01 [Jeccabee]: my brogher-in-law loves smoked oysters. It's on his Christmas list! LOL

I've never tired them myself, but I think I'd be brave enough to try a cooked one. I dont think I could stand a raw one. My dad LOVES raw oysters. It grosses my mom and me out to watch him eat them. LOL

2008-12-01 [Yuriona]: They're very yummy! XD

I want to try them some day. *nods* They're reputed to be an aphrodisiac! ;) Hee hee hee...

2008-12-01 [Jeccabee]: *giggles*

2008-12-01 [moira hawthorne]: cant say/prove they are an aphrodisiac... no one had sex at the party and we all ate a ton of them.. to the point we were stuffed... but sure did have alot of fun... singing and stuff... most the people at this party were musicians and/or choir singers... it was an awesome cheerful party!

2008-12-01 [Yuriona]: LOL! Well, unlike viagra I don't think the raw oyster's potency has been scientifically proven. ;)

2008-12-01 [Flisky]: Methinks I walked into the wrong part of this conversation. :)

2008-12-01 [moira hawthorne]: I think its all in your head.... if you like watchin people slurp away at mucousey slippery slimey foldey stuff... and you are in an intimate mood... you likely start thinkin of other things they could be slurping at....

2008-12-01 [Yuriona]: I think the myth has something more to do with the oyster's high nutrient level increasing fertility or something like that though I could see how that sort of imagery would be suggestive. =3
