Thagirion

Thagirion's legacy continues to grow. Here you'll find newer art and notice a vast improvement over what was shown on the first page. The last few pictures on page one were already showing signs of that. The more I draw the better I get. The pictures in his page should start with art from late 2005 to early 2006. I decided that after 30 images I'd start a new page instead of having one long never ending page. That would be annoying. Apart from Thagirion, Sorath and their friends and foes I will also be including art of Jerone Thanatos and Owen Marsh because their stories are so intertwined with the demon and his Sun God. I'm also going to include screen captures from games where I've made my characters. So have a look and enjoy the latest art.

These pictures are screen captures from the Gamecube game Day of Reckoning 2. This was my first time making my characters in a video game, and having them fight each other was great. It's been so enjoyable watching them come to life.

 
 Davon's front profile picture.

 
 Davon's profile picture from the side.

 
 Solan's front profile picture. I was very pleased with how perfectly Solan turned out in this game. I love his gold eyes.

 
Solan's three quarter view.

 
 Thanatos's profile front. I love how well he turned out. This is what he'd look like if he were real.

 
 Thanatos's side profile pic. That's one mean chin he's got.

 
 Owen's front profile. I can't believe how well Owen turned out. It's possible he's the best one since he looks just like himself. He's got that mean nasty scary look he has even if he's in a good mood. The long thin face with the sunken cheeks, the icy bright blue eyes...yes it's all there. I even got his fire in.

 
 Owen from the side.

 
 Solan and Davon in a victory pose. I love this picture of the two together. They're so pleased at having kicked some butt.

 
 Owen's victory pose. He's all smug and cocky as he throws his head back and stands over his defeated opponent.

 
 This is what happens to you if you insult Thagirion in front of Solan. I love this screen cap of Solan taking down Owen. Owen's in for a world of hurt.

The next five screen caps are from The Godfather for PS2. I really enjoyed this game and getting to see Solan's handsome face for so long really made the game enjoyable. I tried to make Davon in this since he'd make a great Don, but I couldn't because the lead character was in his early 20s. Davon didn't look right as a young man. But Solan was perfect for the part especially since the character was so loyal. The voice was even fairly close.

 
 Here we've got Solan looking good, burning down a rival's mansion and sporting a sweet Tommy Gun.

 
 A very nice close up of Solan. In the game he had green eyes. They were the closest thing to gold they had. I touched them up in photoshop and made them the proper gold they're supposed to be. I think the results turned out very well indeed.

 
 I love this close up. Solan's gold eyes are so wild and bright. He looks so good here. Definitely one of my faves.

 
 I was amazed when he took this pose in the game. This is the pose he takes when he shows respect to Davon. He places his right fist over his chest and takes a shallow bow. Here he was angry when he did it, but he did it none the less. I have a figure of Ra that is also in this pose and it's some thing I had to get since he used to be Ra.

 
 This is the scene after Solan becomes Don. He's so handsome here and in control. I love that look! This is my favorite screen cap over all. So many nice ones but if I had to pick one from all of them this would be it.

 
 Yes, I'm one of those Harry Potter fans. Don't like it? Too bad! I made a four part set with each of my bad boys as teachers or heads of each house. Here we have Davon in Griffindor. This is the darkest of the four pieces and I'm very happy with how the colors turned out. Despite it being dark they are still bright some how. I love that type of effect. I imagine this being Davon's office hours when students can come and ask him for help on stuff they may not have understood. But from the looks of it would you ask him for help? I forsee his office hours being quite dead and a time for him to relax. Davon can more than give Snape a run for his money.

 
 Owen in Slytherin. Owen is the perfect Slytherin. He wouldn't fit anywhere else with that 'better than you' attitude. I find that I really love the look of winter scenes and this was the first time I drew one. I love the contrast of blues and greens which are my favorite colors. It's neat how the wind is blowing Owen's fire around and it's funny to see him holding a wand. This was also a good excuse to get them out of their usual outfits and into something different and kinda fancy.

 
 Solan is the perfect Hufflepuff. He's loyal and can be caring when not doing Davon's bidding. Of the three teachers he'd be the most approchable and probably have a very friendly and well... sunny disposition. With this drawing I had a lot of fun coloring the bricks. I like the way the lighting turned out in this, as well as the flow of his outfit. It's great that the Hufflepuff colors already are the colors Solan normally wears anyway. And the snow was fun to color too.

 
 That means Thanatos is left with Ravenclaw. Again the colors are appropriate with his usual wardrobe. I had fun giving him a real raven as a pet. It was fun to color especially giving it the red eye. I also enjoyed coloring the window glass and like the way that turned out.

 
 This is a drawing I made for my friend Kitora. It's a scene from an RP we played and her character Elena has just shot Solan in the shoulder. Long story, but it was a good one. I did do a bit of a rush job on this so it's not one of my better drawings.

 
 This is the first of a two part series I did where I wanted to show Owen Pained by his fire. Now mind you the fire isn't physically hurting him. He doesn't feel it at all. It's like having hair for him. But he does this to himself. He refuses to accept his fire and hates it. He thinks it's ruinned his life. He can't go into buildings, sleep on a bed, get close to people because of his fire. He has to wear the clear metal helmet to be able to do that and that also makes him stand out. He should be glad that one of his own inventions is helping him to lead a normal life but he hates it too thinking he shouldn't have to wear it because he never should have had the fire. He'd like nothing better than to put it out but he can't because if he does he'll die. On top of that he's got Thagirion chasing him wanting the fire back that he thinks Owen stole. Owen would love to give it back, but he can't so he's on the run. He gets into that circular thinking, "If I didn't have this fire I could be normal, but if I get rid of it I'd die. I don't want to die but I can't lead a normal life..." So he keeps saying that over and over. Despite being strong sometimes he will break down like this.

 
 This is part two of the two part Owen Pained series. The same thing is happening to Owen here as above, but this time he's not wearing his helmet. His fire always mirrors his emotions which is why even if he had the perfect poker face his fire would give away his true feelings every time. He's in that distressed loathing stage again over his fire and because he's so enraged it's basically erupting out of his head. These break downs are very rare for him, and he would only get like this if he were alone. If anyone walked in on him now, he'd quickly compose himself and act as if everything were fine.

 
 This drawing is called The Four Bad Boys and is one of my favorites. Here we have Davon, Solan, Thanatos and Owen at a hypothetical company party. I don't think this would really happy since Owen wouldn't be so out of character and happy but it was nice to put them all of them together like this despite them being from two companies that have an uneasy partnership. Everyone's acting so differently. Thanatos loves parties and he's having a great time, but probably still talking business with Davon. Davon's not really listening to him. He's got his eyes on Owen's fire which he so badly wants to get back from him. When Owen heard this was a fairly formal party he took it to mean completely formal and went all out getting a tux with tails to look his best. He has to be the best looking man at any party he goes to ALWAYS. He's too proud to talk to the others so he turns his back on them. He should be watching out for Davon though, but he figures his boss will keep him busy. What's funny is that Owen brought a top hat. He sure can't wear it so it's funny he'd be carrying it around. Lastly poor Solan. He's just there to watch out for Davon's "safety". He's the only one that can't relax and enjoy the party. He even brought his briefcase. He doesn't trust Thanatos nor should he so even though his master isn't paying much mind to him, he has Solan's full attention. I had a blast coloring this and I wanted it to be set in an 80s style bar. I love all the bright colors in this pic. I also like that you can see the difference in hight between them all with Owen being the tallest and Thanatos the shortest. Owen is 6'3", Davon is 6'1", Solan is 5'11" and Thanatos is 5'9".

 
 This drawing was inspired by the Four Bad Boys pic above. I call this one May I Have This Dance. This is a scene from that same party. Owen got bored with the others and decided to hit the dance floor instead. He would since he'd be the center of attention. And he is a good dancer. What would be be dancing? Probably ballroom or tango. And he still has that hat. It's so funny. This is such a stark contrast from the Owen Pained series because he's so out of character and actually having fun. It's almost as if he's forgotten he's got his fire.

 

 This one is called Lead and Brimestone. It too is TOTALLY out of character. Lead and Brimestone is the name of the band and fits all the characters with Thanatos being the Lead since he loves to tote his guns around. Of course the four of them could never cooperate like this to form a metal band but I thought it would be neat to see them out of their usual outfits and since metal inspires me so much I had to pay a little homage to it. Owen HAD to be the lead singer. He'd want to be the front man to get all the attention like always. He'd have clear vocals. Not quit power metal. He can't hit those super high notes but he'd sound like the singer from Meduza. Solan had to be on drums. Since he's the sun he would be the band's time keeper. I think his suit was the most fun and creative for me to make. I love his earth tones but they still have bright highlights of turquoise. He's the only one that seems to be enjoying the music for what it is. The other three have other reasons for being there. I had to put his blacksun symbols from his Mayan days on his drums. Thanatos got Keyboards. He's the most modern of the four so he'd have the latest intrument to hit the scene. And don't you even dare to tell him that keyboards don't belong in metal because he's got his AK-47 right behind him hidden beneath the cables. I had to put symbols on his keyboard that would reflect his love of money and power. It's too bad there wasn't a gun icon. His outfit is more black metal than power metal but it's still cool. Lastly Davon. He's in a traditional leather jacket. He always loves the older ways and he had to be the guitarist no doubt. After all it's said that the guitar (and the violin) is the instrument of the Devil. They are all his instruments if you ask him though. I don't know much about guitars but I gave him a B C Rich Beast. I saw his monster at a guitar store once and if I ever were to take up that instrument I would get a Beast. No other guitar I would want. It's so evil looking.

Now there's an interesting story behind this pic. Davon still wants Owen's fire. This is a live concert they're playing at when suddenly the guitar goes silent. Of course you can't stop when you're playing live. Owen looks back for a moment to see what's going on and sees Davon kneeling with his back turned by the amp. He figures Davon's plug came out and he's fixing it. It happens so he just keeps singing and turns his attention back to his adoring crowd. Now Owen's still a jerk and the other band members don't like him. Well there was nothing wrong with Davon's guitar. He was down there making a noose out of the cables. He's about to tap Owen on the shoulder and you can imagine what he'll do next when Owen turns around. What I think is funny about this is that Solan and Thanatos aren't doing anything to stop this. It's great! He's going to kill Owen in front of everyone.

 
 I've started fooling around with space art. I wanted to draw Sorath with his angry sun behind him and think this drawing came out extremely well.

 
 This is the longest it's ever taken me to color anything. I spent four days on this. It was such a pain but it finally paid off. I made each planet from scratch in photoshop. Earth and Mars gave me the hardest time. Mars I had to erase and start over on many times. What's different about this drawing is that I tried a new technique where I've colored in almost all the black lines. The only black lines that didn't go where on Sorath's head. I couldn't make them any other color that would look right. But on his body and on the rock he's on it's all colored in. I need to practice this technique more and I'm sure I'll get better over time. I love how his gold feathers/scales on his neck turned out as well as his head dress. The star background was one of the easier things to make. Sorath is on a bit of a power trip and letting the planets around his tail fly like mad around him. But being the second in command of the universe you can't blame him.

 
 This is the best drawing of Thagirion I've made so far. It took me several hours to complete and that's just the coloring part. I was asked by a friend for a Halloween drawing that had to have at least one pumpkin in it. So I decided to draw Thagirion holding one. I learned some new coloring techniques and for the first time Thagirion looks close to how I envision him as a combination of melting magma and glossy ink like skin.

 

 This is a real aweful situation for Sorath. He's in a battle with his worst enemy Afotos and he doesn't stand a chance. Afotos found Sorath on one of his astaral jaunts and chased him back to the night side of the Earth. They landed in ancient Egypt and the battle enused on a platue above the desert. Out classed and out gunned Afotos took him down with his powers of gravity and absorbed anything that Sorath could throw at him. Notice Sorath only has five of his ten planets on his tail. If Sorath hadn't summoned Thagirion to his aid he would have been done for.

The new coloring technique is still hard for me and this one took me several hours as well. I'd say two days. What was interesting was that when I colored the sky, I hadn't planned on there being a black hole. I only drew the stars and the two nebulas. But when I added the clouds it looked like a blackhole so I figured I'd just go for it. So I added more blue streaks to really make it look like a blackhole. It's just amazing that this drawing basically made itself and guided me to add that. Kinda freaky, almost as if I were impowered by Afotos himself. And apart from Sorath's head again no black lines. I think I did much better with the coloring of the lines than I did of the one with Sorath and his planets.
