Sam Fredericks (left) and Orlando Gardiner (right) and the Wicked Tribe from Tad Williams's Otherland. As much of the book takes place in virtual reality, these are actually their sim bodies-- they look quite different in real life! The Wicked Tribe are a bunch of preschoolers (hence the pronounciation of the boys' names as "Freddicks" and "Landogarner") who fly around in little yellow/gold monkey sims.

Micron pen and a shiny gold ink which unfortunately, scanned HORRIBLY. I'll have to work more on adjusting it in photoshop in the future. I'm not sure if I want to color this. If I do, I'll either put this pen one in scraps or take it down altogether.

Somehow, honestly I don't know how it happened, I began doing semi-portraits of Otherland characters. This, obviously, and I have a half done T4b and a Paul. I want to do Dread, and maybe Martine, Azador, and Nandi...... We'll see.

Landogarner, please get in my pants. Also, I adopt monkeys.

Teehee. Monkeys would like you, because you'd be so annoyed at them after about five seconds. XD They'd find it hilarious. Also, Landogarner only gets in Freddicks's pants! :p

Too true. And I would put on a Freddick's mask because I am slick.

These two were probably my most favorite characters out of the entire "Otherland" story, so I am more than pleased to see them illustrated. Moreover, I think you have done a pretty good job with doing so, and with the Wicked Tribe, no less. I kind of wish that they were in color (save for the winged monkeys), but...I'll take what I can get. You've got a nice style.

For some reason I really like Orlando's expression, or maybe it is lack thereof. Although even by around this point I would have imagined him to appear more sickly than this, it's still a nice portrayal of him.

I like their eyes.

I'm going to check out more of your "Otherland" fanart now.

And you've done Paul as well? When did you draw Paul? Because I would like to see that one as well. And you should really draw Dread and Azador and Martine as well (they were a few of my other favorites. Hell, "Otherland" just had a pretty damn good cast of characters, so I'm more than happy to see fanart for it).

Haha, you are the first Otherland fan I've encountered. :D I guess I figured Orlando's sim would at least look sort of healthy, even if he couldn't do much...

I've been itching to draw all the characters... XD I drew Dread once, but didn't like the result, so I never posted it.

Likewise, which is much of a joy as it is a surprise for me, since when I go on my little rants no one really understands what I'm talking about. It's sad. So I'm going to keep an eye on your account. On my watch list you go.

You should draw them, or at least more of them. I would do it myself but...I don't have a whole lot of time right now. Otherwise, I would draw people like Dread. Dread makes me all happy and tingly.

For some reason I've been wanting to draw a picture of Dread and Dulcinea for a while. Argh.
