Description So, had an interesting idea yesterday involving drawing ourselves on a fantasy mount, and truth be told, the idea of drawing people again won me over quickly, so I decided to take a good crack at it.

The beast I chose is an Uktena, a giant horned serpent of Native American mythology. Usually people go Nordic, Greco, or Far Eastern, so I decided to do something from somewhere a little different, and I think it paid off. It even gave me a kaiju idea.

I'll be pretty busy at school this week, so I don't know if I'll be able to really participate or not in the tourney, but it was fun to do nonetheless, and yes, that is me in crocodile-themed armor, because that's awesome. The sword is in homage to my last DA profile, but that's long deactivated and a story for another day. And that's all for now. Read my journal if you want to hear more about my contest.

Whoa, nice concept,although the sword looks a bit too big(unless the character has some sort of supertstrength)
but still the steed brings a deadly mix

I was just exaggerating with the sword, weapons play no part in the competition so I thought I'd draw something outlandish. Thanks much on the steed, though, it was fun to draw.

Very, very awesome...I'm not a huge fan of the jumbo-sized swords, but besides that, it totally kicks ass!

Wow, that's really, really awesome! I wondered if anyone would pick a snake, an lo and behold! And it's such a great pick-Horned Serpents are awesome myths.

Wow now thats an awesome steed! a giant red horned snake and a rider wearing Ragido armor......now thats just plain badass right there and i didnt even annex the huge sword into the equation lol. though i bet riding him is a roller-coaster ride all on its own. anyway really awesome job. you two are really going to be fierce competitors in the competition
