A Gentle Encounterby *Autlaw

Digital Art / Drawings / Fantasy

Another idea that got stuck in my head involving the Altaix. It still didn\'t come out much like I imagined it, but I got pretty close for now x)

I imagined an encounter between a kid and an Altaix in some sort of wasteland setting showing the destroyed world people live in. The Altaix know that kids are still harmless little fellows which don't know what evil and good is yet. The Altaix will never harm a kid. Here one is nearing a kid curiously and somewhat in a gentle manner showing now sign of aggression at all against the little boy.

I might redo this one someday as I want to get the scene right. The background was done with sketchup (for perspectiv and base shapes for buildings. Photoshop for adding textures and objects and the coloring / drawing of the Altaix and the boy.

Thanks a lot (: !

I'm glad that the emotion shines through, I tried to emphasize that aspect the most on this one :]

I've been watching this project for a while. I love this concept! I had been wondering about their size. I'm not sure if it was on a ref sheet or not (I usually just read the story). But I really like this, both for the encounter, and for the size comparison.

Thank you very much c: !

I think I haven't put it on their reference yet in a drawing, but the males stand around 2,10 tall. The females are a bit smaller

wow, this creature is beautiful! are they an open species? and is there a ref 'cuz i wanna more about them!

*Autlaw Nov 23, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

Thank you :] !

They are an open species indeed (: I have made a reference not to long ago : [link]

The reference pretty much describes the essence of the species (: I also put an intro story / background information about the Altaix in the describion :3

Is it very common that an Altaix would run into a kid, or is this a rare encounter?

*Autlaw Nov 22, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

It's a very rare encounter (: I just had that scene in my head were a powerful creature like an Altaix would encounter such a harmless innocent being as a human kid. I thought It would make a emotional scene somehow :] Though they really don't like the human beings in general, they somehow know that kids are innocent

Simply beautiful...I love those colors, and the level of detail on the Altaix is amazing!
