Hey all,

This is probably going to be my last one. To be honest there doesn't seem to be much interest in this thread, and the OP hasn't been updated in a while.

I plan on taking my time with it, so I thought it would be helpful to show you guys it's development in phases.

Haha looks great so far. Wish there was more interest in this thread as it was really fun drawing those doodles and then seeing actual work being created out of them. I suppose that'll be my last doodle too then unless the thread becomes more active.

updating op now. This thread will stand the tests of time as long as I bounce in here to draw monsters now and then I think. And I do it alot as you might have noticed so no worries. TL just needed a general art thread and this is more or less I think is a great place for it.

If im missing anything please let me know.

I think that there were a few things which really animated this thread back when it was still part of the blue robot thread - there was the amazement and wonder at the ability of TL artists to turn squiggles into gold, but there was also the idea of creating monsters to fight the robot and liquid'blue in some sort of dungeon-crawl or collective-text-rpg game thing. We need to keep working on that and I bet people will be re-animated to work on art stuff.

Also drawing this stuff takes a lot of time for the real artists so I bet it's going to be a lot more active on the weekends.

Also also we need more stories in here! I'll start working on the Cerberus Bug's monster manual entry after lunch.

I was a bit busy lately and I'm going to vacation for 1 week today, so I won't be able to pose new stuff but I'll be active when I get back.

I'll definitely come up with some more doodles if I see others post a few as well. I don't want to be the only one submitting.

PRO-TIP: If you're not sure what you're doing, try adding some veins and muscles. And if that doesn't look right, try adding another layer of veins and muscles on top of those muscles. Rinse, repeat.

Feel kinda bad making nit-picks, but the axe handle's perspective is off. The arm is receding but the haft is pretty much straight despite being on top, which makes it look strange.

Looks awesome though.

Yeah, I'm debating that. I had it tapering more before, but it felt 'chunky'.

To be frank, there's all kinds of problems with the anatomy once you get past the idea that it's a rat with three arms.

It reminds me of Blanka from Street Fighter .
