These drawings are high quality in their own right, being very DF-ish and humorous, I didn't notice that he would be finishing them tonight, and, being spoiled by Moogle's drawings, expected something like this.




Standing purely on their own merit, these are good, although I'm confused about the purple stuff on Melbil.

The "purple stuff" is bruise tissue on the mangled fingers and toes. I was presented with quite a list.

Dorf's Name: Thob GoldenMirrored
Relevant Skills: Legendary Marksdwarf, Adept Wrestler, Talented Ranger
Relevant Equipment/Clothing: Bismuth Bronze crossbow, Steel armor, Leather boots, Adamantine left glove, Green Glass Monocle(modded item)
Wounds/Bits ripped off: Right arm is completely gone
Anything else you feel is important: You know how every fort has its own crazy cat dwarf? this guy is my fort's crazy fox dwarf. I recieved a couple of caged foxes from the elves, and since Thob was the only one who 'likes foxes for their cunning' he adopted them straight away. They've been multiplying ever since, and he's always followed into battle by a wave of vulpine destruction (not sure that's even draw-able)

I'll throw my favorite dwarf up there for ya:

Nil Boltbreached
Relevant Skills: Legendary Miner, Mason, and Engraver
Relevant Equipment/Clothing: Rags (everything is XXrottenXX)
Wounds/Bits ripped off: Both eyes gone, with a neck wound that never really healed.

I always imagined him with a cloth over his eyes, a pick and chisel in hand, feeling the stone and, without seeing it, knowing how it should be shaped.  This is truly a great artist.

A bit of irony for you: Nil Boltbreached's head was breached by a bolt from a goblin ambush, hence why he's now "The Blind Artist."

This thread makes me sad, purely for the fact that I can't think of a dwarf who's anything more than a  :) to me.
I'm a bad... vague overlord thing?

You have to admit if we all truely did expect to see drawings like this they would all take in time frames of 1-3 weeks to complete.

By the way I will admit that it becomes a bit redundent to draw purple bruises when the dwarfs hands, and feet are just four circles.

Since he's not a real dwarf, I decided his clothes are decorated with finely crafted rope reed cloth.
