It may have some spelling errors I didn't pick up. I apologize for the crappy wording, lack of character detail, and the loop holes. It's lame and very much still beta. Now on with it....oh and I lost all the Latin titles...
Chapter one: Chains Broken
It’s raining a heavy rain that blinds the vision and also the heart of man. A figure in a black coat walks in the rain, towards a huge building that resembles a small castle: a cathedral. The figure moves as if the rain isn’t rushing against its form as if the wind cannot push it back.
Two guards stand watch at the arched door on the small castle. Armed with their spears pointed straight up. The figure with the coat continues to walk, it moves ever closer to the guards at the gate. It stops and looks up at the guards with its hood over its face.
“Let me past or…” The voice in the coat said muffled.
“OR what?” Said the guard on the left.
Two small knives slide out of the sleeves of the coat. It shoves one through the neck of the guard on the right. The other guard uses his spear to thrust at the coat-wearing figure but too late; the figure cuts off the guards arm. The guard screams of the pain.
“Damn I missed. I can’t miss again.” Whispers the figure in the coat to himself.
The figure leaps in the air and quickly comes down slicing the guard in half with the small knife. It slides the knife back in its coat sleeve and moves on.
“Or you will be damned.” States the figure in the coat.
--Cathedral Hallway
In a long hallway a young knight with white hair walks. His armor makes a clanking sound as he walks. He feels a chill flow through him. Suddenly he stops and quickly darts his hand over his sheathed swords handle. He moves his head side to side slowly looking for something, his red reptile like eyes move back and forth examining the area.
“Who is there, reveal yourself!” Shouts the Knight to the shadows.
No voice answers back. The Knight continues to look once move breathing heavily. The Knight removes his right hand from over his sword and restarts walking down the hall.
A meeting is taking place and the young Knight from before is seen entering the door. He takes a seat at the far east of the rectangular table next to a woman with small rectangle glasses and brown hair. She looks over to the Knight.
“So Ciro you finally came. I was beginning to think that you were polishing your sword again like the last meeting.” Says the brown haired woman with glasses.
“Or maybe he was sitting at the window wishing it would stop raining so he could go out and play.” A Knight with a beard yells out.
The table erupts with laughter. Ciro shoots a glare at the bearded knight.
“Gluraph you know I wouldn’t waste my time on such meaningless things. So I would advise you to not bring such nonsense up again.” Snaps Ciro at the bearded knight Gluraph. The table falls silent. “Now back to business. Elise what have I missed while I was absent?” Asks Ciro to the woman with the glasses.
“Nothing really. We were just coming up with ideas of how to deal with the heretic problem here in Spain. But that is of no importance now. There is a much bigger problem and it deals with the town of Ariol. I am sure you know that they haven’t contacted us in over 3 months and that is just to long. We need to find out why so are deciding wh-” Says Elise but is cut off by Ciro.
“I will go.” States Ciro.
Elise looks around the table. Everyone nods in agreement to Ciro’s wishes. Ciro feels the same chill from the hallway and looks up at the ceiling. Nothing is there. He crosses his arms and looks down at the table. The figure with the coat emerges from the shadows on the ceiling, a smile can be seen on his face.
“It seems no one has any complains. So I guess this job belongs to you then. You ship out at 08:00 tomorrow since this is nothing but a mission to check out the reason there has been no contact with us you only need one person of your choosing. I would prefer Rake Marrinas.” Says Elise to Ciro.
“No I will take Sadik Hodogo.” Says Ciro without looking up.
Elise smiles and nods. Ciro gets up and heads out of the door. Walking down the hallway Ciro thinks to himself how he will reach Ariol and whom he will need to talk too. He shrugs thinking he will leave it to tomorrow.
--Woods outside of Ariol, afternoon next day
In a clearing in the forest Ciro sleeps against a tree. A boy with corn rolls that looks if he is from African decedent leans on the same tree. The boy hits the tree waking Ciro up.
“What…huh…oh it’s just you Sadik. Why you wake me?” Says Ciro rubbing the back of his head.
“Sir it seems we will be moving forward again in 01:00 hours.” Says Sadik in a respectful tone.
“Damnit Sadik stop calling me “sir” We are friends remember, no more rank stuff.” Says Ciro twisting his neck.
Sadik nods in agreement. He looks over at Ciro while tightening his gloves. They both look at each other and nod. The two boys dash out of the clearing and through the woods. A half hour later the two end up on a road. Walking next to each other they look around confused about why no one else is on the road. The two spot a broken carriage, they rush over to it to make sure everyone is okay. A middle-aged man lies in the drivers seat without a left arm.
“Excuse me sir are you still alive? What happened?” Asks Sadik staring at the mans shoulder.
“I am dead. Everyone is dead. From that monster, she killed us. A brought us back. We are nothing but beast feeding off each other. Please save us the pain of hunger, the pain of living.” Pleads the half dead man.
“What monster? Who is she?” Asks Ciro curious of the circumstances.
“Not human. An elf; a dark one. Killed us then raised us as monsters.” Says the man in terrible pain.
Sadik looks over to Ciro. Ciro shakes his head then looks up the road. Sadik moves away from the man. Ciro withdraws his sword; the one-sided blade shines in the sunlight. Ciro quickly slashes downward removing the mans head. He resheaths his sword and moves on the road again. Sadik follows and looks back at the man who wanted death.
“What could have caused this to come to be Ciro? Why did he want this?” Asks Sadik.
“I don’t know. All I know is that he was lost. That is all we could do.” Says Ciro emotionlessly.
The boys continue on the road. A loud ringing is heard they cover their ears but it still is heard without being muffled. The ringing turns into a voice.
“Do you want death? By my hand? By my pets? By my lips? Do you want death?” Says a female voice.
“I don’t need to answer to you! But answer me, were you the one who drove that man mad?” Shouts Sadik.
No reply is heard. Sadik looks around but finds no one there. The two continue to walk. They soon find the gate of the town but still no reply from the mysterious voice.
“You ready to enter Ciro?” Asks Sadik
Ciro nods and the two walk into the town. The voice is heard again.
“You fools come to a queen but do not answer her question. Your death will be long and painful. Hahahahahahahaha!” Laughs the voice.
“Silence you damn witch.” Shouts Ciro.
The voice stops again and the boys continue.
--Ariol
The streets look desolate and filthy. Sadik gets an uneasy feeling thinking over what the one armed man said about an elf and bringing back the dead. Ciro rounds the corner of a building then stops in his tracks. Sadik runs into him and falls back. He feels something grabbing his arm and he pays it no mind. It squeezes tighter and tighter till Sadik can’t take it. He turns to look at what is doing that and sees a little girl; he removes her hand from his arm and smiles at her.
“Move away from that girl Sadik. She is like the rest of them. This is a order!” Yells Ciro.
“Like the rest of them…what the hell are you talking about?” Asks Sadik confused.
After that is said the little girl hisses and leaps at Sadik. Sadik dodges the little manic. He gasps as he sees the little girl change into a rotting corpse with flesh falling off and torn muscles showing. He then looks around him and finds hundreds like the girl moaning and groaning at Ciro and him. Ciro grabs his sword and gets in a ready stance.
“Come my children and let us become stronger.” Says the same mysterious voice.
All of the creatures turn and walks to the center of the town to the fountain. A female with a dark gray skin color is seen standing on top of the fountain. Sadik notices her before Ciro and makes out two pointy ears.
“She’s a elf? But that skin isn’t the skin of elves is it? Wait the man said a dark one, so she is a dark elf.” Thinks Sadik to himself. “Ciro, that woman at the top of the fountain is a dark elf. She must have been the one that the man was talking about.” He tells Ciro.
“Elves. They don’t exist. But her ears and the dead people explain it. She knows how to use magic.” Thinks Ciro a little panicked.
“So you came after all. I am happy, since most would run off after the telepathic talk.” Says the dark elf with a grin. “Met my pets I suppose.”
“So you were the one who did this to the townspeople!” Shouts Ciro angrily.
The dark elf jumps down from the fountain and into the crowd of the dead. She raises her right arm and begins to speak in a weird tongue. A star like symbol appears under her and the crowd of monsters walk towards Ciro and Sadik.
“You will now die by my legion of zombies. Humans feel my accused suffering.” Yells the dark elf.
Three zombies rush Ciro. He jumps back to dodge then slashes their heads off with a single attack. The dark elf watches on. Sadik pummels one in the chest six times but it doesn’t even fall. Ciro rushes over and slices off its head.
“Don’t you research Sadik? The weaknesses for zombies are the head.” Ciro says while getting back in his fighting stance.
Sadik nods and begins fighting again. Sadik’s fist slams into one zombies face and kicks another in the head snapping its neck. Ciro slashes a zombie in half then heads towards their leader. Sadik places his hands on the ground and then spins his body wildly while balancing himself on his hands. The zombies run at him but get knocked away.
“What is your name monster that raises the deceased?” Asks Ciro while charging at the dark elf.
“Well if you really want to know my name, it’s Ski. I am a necromancer that is how I raised these zombies.” Says the dark elf Ski.
Ciro slashes at Ski but misses. Ski stands behind him holding a staff with a green orb at the top. He turns around quickly and attacks again. Another miss. She stands behind him with her arms around his neck.
“You are a cute human you know that? Your eyes intrigue me. They don’t resemble the eyes of the average human. You eyes are like “his” but not quite the same.” Ski says in a low tone.
Ciro grabs Ski arms. Then he flips forward hoping to crush her under the weight of his armor but Ski vanishes. Ciro hits the ground and leaps back up to find Ski on top of the fountain again. Ski begins to clap.
“You are very good human. Show me your determination to live.” Says Ski.
More zombies’ attack trying to engulf Ciro and Sadik. Ciro attacks with haste cutting the zombie’s wave after wave, while Sadik lifts them up and tosses them at each other. Ciro runs by Sadik slicing off the heads of the fallen zombies. Sadik punches two more in the face killing them permantly.
Ski begins to chant and the star returns again. Ciro gets lifted up by a gust of wind and slammed into a nearby building. Ciro coughs up blood as he struggles to stand up. Ski chants again and Ciro is engulfed by fire. Screams and yelling can be heard as Ciro is continuously burnt. Sadik tries to reach Ciro but is grabbed by zombies.
“Too bad cutie you just had to die. And African I admire your strength but strength alone won’t help you.” Says Ski as she turns and walks away.
“But my strength is enough to kill you. Now rot in hell you elf bitch!” Says a voice similar to Sadik’s.
Ski turns around in a fury but is startled by what she sees. Sadik stands there in the middle of the crowd of zombies steaming. An awkward circle rotates around his torso. Zombies move towards him but are burned to ashes.
“Due to all the death and violence around here there seems to a lot of demons wandering around and I just made a pact with one, a Ifrit!” Says Sadik while holding up his left arm.
Marks begin to appear on his left arm. Soon the circle cracks and shatters and Sadik quickly swallowed by fire. Claws rip out of the flames and red crimson hair is seen. Sadik walks out now looking like a transformed man mixed with a demon.
“I am your death bringer. Now wash yourself clean so you will be beautiful at the gates of judgment!” Says the new Sadik in a broken voice.

I told Malvado to post his stuff here because it seems like the appropriate thread to do it in. It's not really artwork, but it's in the same ballpark I think. I mean, I'm posting videos and I don't think that qualifies as artwork either. Post away I say.
Anyway, the song in my video is a mix of a Juno Reactor song that appears in Texhnolyze. Juno Reactor are the guys that did some of the music for the Matrix films. The opening in Texhnolyze has this song, and it is so awesome that I based my whole video on that damn song. I suggest you watch Texhnolyze just to see that opening.
EDIT: The shot where the camera spins around the building took me one day alone.

Aight, here some more sketches I did over the past few days.
Here is some broad from Rave Master.
Here is a very rough sketch of Xiayou done off a rough sketch in the T5 strategy guide. I am not too fond of this one, but eh, I will post it.
Aight, and here is a Xianghua I did at work today out of the SCII art book.

Well, a lot of people know how I "like" anime-like artwork, so I'm not going to comment on Ayanami's drawing because I'll be biased. I suggest that you get a book on anatomy though, something like that will never hurt and it could do wonders to your stuff.
Anyway, due to various reasons, I've decided to post a couple of the few colored pieces I have. They were an assignment for one of my classes and they were done based on real life reference.
Starnum: If you're reading this, that's more or less what your av will look like once I get around to actually doing it.

Oh yes, and they will rue the day when we bust this badness on them Femto my friend. I can't wait, and to celebrate, I'm already parading this black and white av. I can't wait to wave the final version with pride. Finally Starnum will be visible in all his glory, heh.Femto wrote:Starnum: If you're reading this, that's more or less what your av will look like once I get around to actually doing it.

Arresty: I'd say the best way to improve your drawing skills is by drawing your ass off. Simple as that. I think I told something like this to Buzkashi some time ago, but it also helps if you start looking at stuff with different eyes. Like instead of looking at Berserk and thinking "This guy's artwork is awesome!" think "Why is this guy's artwork awesome?" or "How does he do that?" You're pretty much learning on your own by doing this, and once you're at a level where you think you can take things more seriously, buy books on anatomy, artbooks, go to museums, just soak everything in. Lessons are good, provided you have a decent teacher, and drawing from life is vital. Just stick at it and you'll improve with time. I'm still trying to. You've probably heard this a million times over, but practice makes perfect.
Buzkashi: It was bigger than the usual A4 I work with, I can't remember the exact size though. I remember I had to scan it in 3 parts, because my scanner goes up to A4 only.

Nice work as always Femto, and thanks for the advice as always.
I read books on human scale and anatomy when I am at my job at the library, I still have a loooooong way to go before I get any really good stuff done. Besides, it is just a hobby for me now.
Think I am going to take a brake from drawing at the time being.
