One more Antharra character



Name: Mai N'der

Race: Gen-Odos

Background: Mai N'der is a top bounty hunter, hired by Order of Nurram to find Tavio Leanti and terminate her. He was born on Traid planet, in the Aerr City of Elumnai region. He was predetermined as bounty hunter in official Fedagnat Council of Universal Justice, because of his bloodline's genetics. His mother and father are High Priests of FCUJ, respected members within Intibion Surra, one of mightiest Sattard Orders in Antharra ( Sattard Orders are multiple organizations throughout Antharra with mission to balance just laws and adapt them accordingly ).

Since Tavio escaped Yuu-Rhi Military Laboratory, Mai N'der is collecting clues of her whereabouts, rapidly narrowing his search through Arg-Hatu solar system towards planet where Tavio Leanti is.

Hope you guys will like it!

Such amazing textures! It looks awesome!

[CKABEH 3BEPOB]

Thanks M

I was working fast, so there is some overlap, but, ok, it happens

Very cool new alien art.   That's a scary-*** villain you've created!    

Miscellaneous question - how tall are Gen-Odos compared to humans?

Thanks man, glad you liked the villain, you should see his other forms!

Gen-Odos are few feets taller than average human. But, with bio-engineering, which is widely spread across Antharra, they can have improvements for their body. Because they do not have birth as we do ( they lost reproduction ability after major race disease 4000 Artade's ago ( Artade's are Antharra's universal years )), they use technology that is "given" by their deity, All-Like Trra.

Whole concept of birth is basically that they use mother and father DNA to produce ( in lack of better words ) newborn in facilities that we here call maternity hospital, but they are more like labs. While his body is developing, "mind" is learning about Antharra world, and is doing life tests, to show his abilities and possible anomalies. If newborn is accepted by strict LMBS, ( Laws of mind, body, and soul ) his "mind" is merging with the body, and body gets features that are suited to mind's conciseness and level of development. Of course, this process does not give perfect children, because it is impossible to alter someone's "soul".

Bodies can have many alterations, but some standards must be met. Most popular, for example, are Alteon Metal Skeleton Structure for fighter-type units, Advanced Visual Attachments for scouts and spies, or Tissue Detachment for engineers ( where they basically have ability to multiple their fingers, even whole arm, for example, so whey can work with more precision ) etc.

Almost forgot, Gen-Odos race is the one race which invented their universal language ( Genasa ) which i prepared for presentation, and is included on my site.

I made a list of over 500 upgrades so far, since i am poking every little thing in my project, and going deep inside each part of Antharra. Trust me, there is so much more to see than just few pics and sentences and I really hope some day it will be a worthy project... Do not let me started on sports, transportation or politics lol

I hope this helped a bit ;D

Cool that you are creating more than just the art and the look for a race, but also the background and the lores too.  Is it to be use in something?

Thanks Jack!

Well, i have been working on this project for almost 13 years ( 12 and 3/4 ) and i have thousands of pages of each race ( there is 52 ), their customs, legends, politics, governments, transportation, food, sports, criminal, but also includes technology, science, magic and nature descriptions.

I made this series of Antharra pics because i had a presentation for  ( possibly ) comic book. I crossed my fingers, because i believe this lore can be acknowledged....Still isn't, but, i did not present it much to the world either. Still iterating a lot of things, and always do. I have made up a TCG game, which is on my site, and i am working on game design for the upcoming Antharra MMO ( in 2025 ) LOL

I will continue to work hard on it anyway, no matter if current producer is not interested.

Sounds like lots blood and sweat went into that thing.  (and I mean the site, not a person)
Where i the site?

I could see a collectible card/ civilization building / real time strategy MOA game in the works.

[CKABEH 3BEPOB]

Lol, yeah, in whole project, collected sweat enough to fill the swimming pool

you can check some things about Antharra ( it is old stuff, but, basically, it is some description of races and legends )

Awesome pic CKABEH!    Imposing and scary charr, perfect!   I like the glowing goggles, they look like nightvision specs (do felines need nightvision goggles?)  Were you inspired by the engineer class?

Thanks man! Those are supposed to be eyes lol, i should drawn iris

And yeah, i am Char Engi, Albino Charr

This is my first try of underwater art, hope you will like it! And no, it is not from GW, but some of inspirations was, certainly, seeing all those shops around Tyria

Amazing lighting, the blueish highlights on the ship really work.
Something I notice about your work is that you use a very limited palette, mostly consisting of 1 or 2 colors (something I'm still struggling with too). Try using some more opposite colors, so for example, in the ship painting, make more seaflowers and make them a strong orangeish. Think thats another step you can take to becoming even better! This is someone who I find a great reminder to this: http://real-sonkes.d...rt.com/gallery/, using great contrastive shadows.

[Doctor Overlord]

I really love that underwater piece.   It certainly feels like it had some GW2 underwater influence   

Keep posting stuff here on the Library!  The activity has certainly died down here since the game launch but I'm thinking it will slowly start to come back people reach an equilibrium with the game.

Thank you very much! I am very glad you liked it so much! And you are right about my palette, i am still afraid to not ruin the picture with colors, in which i am really lousy, trying my best to learn from free online tutorials, but...Still struggling. Thanks for the tip and for the link, it will be usable, his  work is awesome, and he is not afraid of colors, definitely

Thanks man, glad you do. And yeah, it feels some, but, it was for a friend, i just implemented my experience in underwater world of GW2

I will post, but i am currently working two full time jobs that are taking me 14 hours a day, and one part time ( for Last Bastion ) for a piece per week, so, i do not have much time to draw much on the side, sadly. I started on all three classess of Daynight Armor Set which would correspond to the weapon set i made, and i can't find enough time to finish them lol

I completely understand why the activity is so low, also

Awesome ship.  Good work there.

Now make 1,000 more for an epic space battle.

[EliteZeon]

Looking at this image gives me the same feeling I had when I finished making an old spaceship images 4 years ago.

Except now when I look at that old image I did, it doesn't look at cool anymore...

Man you're making me want to pick up my stylus, pen and pencil again.

Oh you got any backstory for it? That's always fun.

[Morag D]

oh wow, that is quite something. amazing detail and very neat perspective!

[Perynne]

So many little details.... wow. All done in Photoshop, or did you use some kind of 3D program to help out? Very awesome!

[MagicnaAnavi]

as always, great work Adam Imo, this is cover worthy ^^

[Viatrix]

Bravo..just wow. I thought I was watching you in DA already. I'll fix that
