This feels like a bold enough claim that I should relocate the most recent iteration of the character to see how recognizable he is in this rendition.
Oh.
Well, I suppose that’s what happens after so many years of the Boards. Some of the earlier images just didn’t get hosted properly back in the day; I know I lost a few myself.
As for the artwork, is that a paint tool sai brush or a krita brush I see heavily used in the background? It’s hard to tell if this was meant to be some kind of celestial star trail or a swarm of small, glowing creatures migrating beneath the rocky outcrop. Terrus’s more vibrant portions have an airbrush over exclusively the feet and nowhere else, making it feel like his airbrush layer got masked to the rock layer by mistake.
Overall, solid A for effort and a B+ for execution. I’m assuming this character is meant to be a child/teen given the proportions of his body and face, but the added details make me more and more curious about his backstory. Now it’s simply a question of whether or not I can muster up the courage to venture onto either deviantart or tumblr…
