Chronomancy: Chronobolt | |
|
Number 11 of 12 illustrations created for West End Games D6 System RPG. This and all others credited to the project are licensed to WEG and are displayed with permission. I'll confess to a bit of artistic license here. The concept described "a sorceress in a flowing gown surrounded by attackers. With her left hand, she casts the Chronobolt which leaves an imprint of her outstretched hand on the enemy's back". The interpretation of the enemies was left entirely to me. I tinkered with several different ideas, but the one version I kept coming back to was of that giant spider, because honestly I can't stand them. After some traumatic experiences with extremely large spiders during my time as an exchange student in Australia, to say they bother me a bit is to say that hell is just a sauna. I combined elements of a few different spiders for this baddie, notably the Australian Huntsman and Sydney Funnel Web that so terrorized me in my youth. To complete the Freud-fest, the model for that sorceress is yours truly. After my successful trial with Soul Echo I realized it was easier (and fun!) to find the pose I wanted by simply doing it myself. And I have to admit, I did gain some satisfaction from the image of mini-me potentially doing something really nasty to a childhood demon. Art can be just so therapeutic. | |
