His name is Wander? I always wondered but yeah, that was a beautiful game. I try to convince others but some people can be so stubborn.

I agree. Alot of people find it so boring because there are no enemies to fight other than the colossi. My friend complains about the fact that you don't use the sword swing. Another complained about lack of a soundtrack, and another about the confusing story, and not knowing the character's names, later introduced as "Mono" the girl, "Wander the boy, and the preist's name was..... I forgot.

So many little things are wrong in their eyes, but wonderful in mine. No enemies or soundtrack makes it creepy, mystifying, realisitc and peaceful.

I didn't really understand the point of being able to swing your sword, and I have to agree on my friend with that, but nonetheless, it's a work of art, just like this sketchpaint.

Awwwwwwwww.... I've never played that game, but this character looks so beautiful and sad... ;o; It's touching. And the title is like the icing on the cake. You're amazing. I know I've been kind of repetitive with that, but I can't say it enough. xD;;

Shadow of the Colossus remains on of the most beautiful games I've ever played, and I LOVE how you captured Wander. *cling* He makes me SO SAD. . I really does look a lot like him, especially towards the end of the game. Though, I miss the determination you sometimes see in him. Nonetheless, REALLY AWESOME.

Totally faving this one. Might build a shrine around it. XD

Add my praise to the justifyably large pile.

A perfect representation of the star of my favorite video game of the last decade. The spirit and tone and feeling is awesomely captured. You also added a subtle hint as to the hierarchy in the game when you put the smaller-than-damn-near-everything-else-in-the-game Wander in the foreground, while the trademark-gigantic Valor stands dwarfed in the background, overtaken by shadow. Tragic beauty and hearbreaking devotion, all in one exceedingly well-done sketchpaint. Bravo.

There's something about this picture I keep coming back to... Apart from it being really well done (which I could say about all your pics) there's just something about his face, something... haunting, almost. Maybe this sounds weird, but I really love how you paint mouths, I've been staring at it trying to find out what makes them look that way Well done

lazardo [2006-12-17 03:04:14 +0000 UTC]

The one thing that makes this stand out from pretty much all of the other SOTC art is, well, the look on his face, combined with the washed-out natural color. It really captures the futility of the situation and the utter tragedy of the ending (which I won't reveal, though it is emotional without being emo. )

Pharaoh-Ink [2006-12-04 22:14:49 +0000 UTC]

I always loved SOTC. It was such a deep game for me. The graphics were beautiful, and the plot was saddening. I mean....Wander was doomed from the beginning, fighting a losing battle, only to die for his love in the end. I felt so bad when he finally realized he was being used. I just overall did'nt like how the game ended. I thought him and Mono would have been reunited together, not her being his mother. It's just not the same.

I also loved the music. It was beautiful.

Anyway, to get to the point, this is a beautiful piece of work. Wonderful job, my friend.
