SciFi and Fantasy Art: Jerbit

Hey...boxers 'r kinda cute, hehe. (now I've really done it. All the monsters I ever knew hated cute. Mrr, specially Gith. heh) An I always wondered what magic looked like. It smells good too, come to think of it. Oh, and all the best pictures are done on unworthy paper. It's a rule of art. Just like the rule when painting you must get more on yourself then on the paper... You said the boxers are cute? Oh, that's worse than insulting them. He's gonna try and put the moves on you now. I'd invest in deadbolts. And a tome of protective spells. And pepperspray.

So, is Jerbit like a naturally occuring homonculus?Not naturally occuring. He was created by a coven of mages to ensure that magic would always exist in the world, in some form.

Baron Once bad then good then bad again then good once more and now bad again Beaver (Master of really horrible evil things) wore boxers! And I agree that all the best work is done on crappy paper. Did you know that everything I've drawn all (School) year was on type-writer paper in mechanical pencil?90% of everything I've ever drawn was on the back of a school assignment. The rest was drawn on blank paper I, ahem, "borrowed" from school.

Mumumu!!!!! *strokes her ultra smooth Bristol board lovingly* Don't worry Mister Pretty Paper.... *stroke stroke* I love you.... *mwah*... they just don't understand our special bond Mister Pretty Paper... *careful non-paper-creasing hug* AAHRUM!!! Anyway... Mehehehee... he has the "Stiff Upper Lip" look... when you say the paint outlines the magical things in light blue.... do you mean.... when someone enters a room covered in this paint... it identifies the things tht are magic? Or... am I completely missing the point?!?! (again)Hmmm... Stiff upper lip and the nose of a horseshoe bat. If a magical object is between you and the paint, you see a thin blue sillouette around the object. Think of it this way. The paint gives off a certain kind of radiation. The radiation turns into blue light if it passes close to a magic object. So no matter how many people were looking at the magic item, each would only see the halo of blue from their own perspective, and even if they moved, the object would still be outlined in blue. It's a tad complex.

By that reasoning, shouldn't his whole body be outlined in blue and not just the part in this picture that is in front of the blue wall? Eh, it matters little -- a winged creature wearing boxers just has to have some sort of dweomer thing going on.Only direct line-of-sight produces the halo. And it is magic, so it can't be completely explained using real science. The magical object doesn't glow or anything, just the paint *appears* to change colour. He's a statue, most of the time. One of a set, actually. One of two sets, to be totally correct. One in each set embodies each school of magic, with two that contain all schools, one in each set. The set that reflects the darker side of magic was fashioned in the images of imps, gremlins, kobolds, and such. The set that is more positive is composed of fairies, leprechauns, sprites, and brownies. Just spouting, sorry.

His boxers suk like shit!! FZZZAP!!! *the commenter has been turned into a large, steaming pile of blue goo* You may still be a large, steaming pile, but at least you're a large, steaming pile that doesn't smell as bad.

Actually, I'm a big fan of boxers on those of the male persuasion m'self, but... that's just me. What I want to know is what school of magic does he encompass? What's his specialty? And I like the outline aroudn magical things. Reminds me of a couple - well, more than a couple, really - stories I've read over time.Dang. I thought the outline thing was pretty original. Phooey.
Jerbitt encompasses all schools of magic. Each set of figures contains one representative from each school, and one that encompasses all the positive (or in Jerbitt's case, negative) aspects of magic as a whole. Jerbitt is loud, arrogant, whimsical, confusing, and totally, unrelentingly, absolutely uncontrollable. His counterpart from the "positive" set is a helpful, wise, thoughtful, "walk softly and carry a big stick" leprechaun.

Kewl! ^_^ u mean he can turn into a big gooey blue puddle like the dude in terminator 1?
