Kraken the Ice - by ozwalled

Kraken the Ice




Third Place-winning entry of Zip Cod Ness's Aug. 2005 Apple of Enlightenment revival. The theme/ prompt was "What if there was a blizzard in Summers?". Here, I figured, if there was a blizzard in Summers, why not go all the way and have a major freeze, even extending out to the surrounding waters? This would mean no boat ride to Scaraba, so the Chosen Four would have to bundle up and walk there. But with such a glorious triple pun of a title, you can forget about what lurks under the waves...

ozwalled Cerebrum
The Cerebrum enemy from Mother 1. Another one of my favorite pieces, mostly because it's so close to what was in my mind before my digital pen touched my Wacom tablet.
Maybe it's just my neuropsychology background at work, but I thought that the Cerebrum to be one of the cooler, more fitting of the "campy" enemy ideas in EB0. I mean, he's a brain, on a glass-domed platter with legs sticking out the bottom! How awesome is that! The legs on the original didn't look quite so human, so I decided to have them look human-ish, but not quite.

ozwalled Handsome Tom
"Handsomely Handsome Puppet". I'm a big fan of Threed's Handsome Tom. Sure, it was merely an alternate palette version of Smilin' Sam, but come ON! He's a puppet/ dummy that has purple skin and white hair. How creepy is THAT? And how creepy is the person who'd have made him? Handsome Tom is cool.

ozwalled Ghost of Starman
There's something undeniably creepy about the Ghost of Starman, what with that glowing aura around the dark palette of its body. Having recently read the Alex Ross masterpiece "Marvels", I'd REALLY loved how he painted Cyclops's visor and tried to borrow a bit of that from memory, here. This is one of my favorite pieces of mine to date, just because it's fairly simple, yet I feel, so very effective.
