Contest May - June Visual Art Contest (WIP Thread)

@spawning of Bob, do you mean anti-heroes as in Deadpool, or anti-hero as in literal villain, or what? I have a concept drawing ready (I work quickly when I'm bored) and would like to check exactly what you meant.
My anti-hero character is just a good guy who happens to be a bit naughty. That ok?

Scalenex gave some pointers about this theme in the story comp rules

Not everyone defines anti-hero the same way. What one person calls an anti-hero another calls a tragic hero, doomed hero, penitent hero, villain protagonists, affable villain or any number of things. The differing interpretations of the concept will be what makes this contest interesting. He is the bare bones minimalist definition of anti-heroes on Wikipedia. For more detailed analysis and over a dozen subtypes, check out this article from TV-tropes.

There is no wrong answer for "what is an anti-hero?" Let's see how you can apply the concept to reptiles

Like "continuity and Change" i think you could talk just about anything into this theme. Except for architecture, so Pendrake had been easily eliminated from my list of rivals (my evil plan continues apace. I am the ultimate anti-hero)
 
Looks good! Kind of like Rango (but more of an anti-hero...)

Why is he wearing a cowboy hat? Why aren't you wearing one?

Edit: Now with colour!

Let me check the plaques, it might be The Great Plan. Is it an anti heroic Stegadon?
I dunno, I didn't ask him.:rolleyes:

This is the WIP thread for this comp alone and The Temple of Aartzifartzi is for finished aarts ... if no where else suits, use your own almost unused WIP thread.

I decided to expand the WiP thread. Today, I found out some people call them SbS threads. (Step by Step). I need to go post step four...
 
@pendrake, what kind of plans do you have for the stegadon? I kind of took inspiration from what I read in @spawning of Bobs posts and yours for the rough idea of my entry. I'd hate to have accidentally snaffled your idea.

Well so far I have not read all the stories...but I have read two different ones where a Stegadon got mentioned.

Oh bliss! Bliss and heaven! Oh, it was gorgeousness and gorgeousity made flesh. It was like a bird of rarest-spun heaven metal or like silvery wine flowing in a spaceship, gravity all nonsense now. As I slooshied, I knew such lovely pictures!
 
As it slowly loaded that looked like the ground plan view of an ancient hill fort or earthwork from an archaeology text. (It is the line treatment that does it...)
Haha! What majesty is this? Oh I see, a rat scribble!
