it's really epic when you kill an iron man(or bronze colossus, if you manage that) in adventure mode and it turns into a statue of you.

Maybe they have some sort of amorphous core
So they're like transformers now?

In the arena its random at least, I don't know how it works during fort or adventure mode.

Enertron was the power source of the Transformers, not what made them transform. I was just giving a hypothesis on why they turn into a random statue, in the arena at least.

Energon. Derived from the word energy. Comes in cubes.

If anything, DF iron men's gas is energon, not their metal.

Huh, that actually makes some sort of sense. Do iron men die if all their gas leaks out?

They probably look like animated iron statues of whatever statue 'drops' when they die.

DOUBLE POST, OH SNAP

This is a BLOOD MAN, one of the crazy new animals from down in the deep caverns. Seeing as how blood men are basically humanoid-shaped bags of blood, I put a lot of effort into making him look contorted and obscene. The veins and the scabs are all there for the creepy-factor. I wanted him to have teeth, but the raw files say that he doesn't.



Oh and spoiler alert. probably should have said that before I posted the pic

Awesome, looks like something you'd see in a Silent Hill game.

Given how easily they are killed in the arena, I picture them as humanoid blobs which vaguely resemble a giant amoeba filled with dark fluid and barely able to hold their form.

Theres some other grotesque stuff down there as well, perhaps even more grotesque than those guys.

I refuse to read the creature_next document until I a) encounter the creature in-game or b) hear about it on the forums enough that it's spoiled for me anway.

Anything You'd like me to draw? I mean seriously, I've got a ton of ARTIST'S BLOCK right now

 Might want to try something resembling the Vivec concept art, which I always found to be rockin'.

 I also want to raise a point on how much I love how you handle eyes. From the fantastical blank eyes of the fantasy races as opposed to the normal ones of the Humans and even the complete lack of eyes for demons. More rockin' concepts.

Fault, why not make an art commission thread in Creative Projects?

But then, life was also easier when I was running around here pretending to be a man, so I guess I should just "man up" and get back to work.

Sure. Though I'd have to post it in the engraver's guild, as it isn't really DF fan art.

thanks, Duke! It's nice to hear some appreciation for creativity.
(though I should try and focus more on realism and quality as well as on being creative...)

Maybe If I have more time on my hands... I'm kinda swamped with colouring webcomic pages right now.
