Aloy and Seyka from the Horizon Forbidden West Burning Shores DLC. Easily one of my favorite dlcs for one of my favorite games of all time!
I NEEDED to draw them looking at each other and smiling. They didn’t get enough time to just enjoy each others company before running off to save the world again! Also I’m just obsessed with Quen armor.
Probably needs a little tweaking but this is the first one I've ever done completely digital, which feels pretty cool! It's nice to be actively learning stuff.
I was thinking about the intersection of the shapes of rays and moths and thought a combination would be really interesting for an aquatic machine mount. The original idea was a manta ray/luna moth, but it ended up being much more eagle ray than manta ray.
My general idea for this thing is that it is faster in the water than a Waterwing which gives a potential boost to aquatic combat, but it's balanced by an inability to fly - it can make charged jumps that mimic a flying fish.
Sandwiched between layers of the wing membranes are fiber optic lights that mimic natural bioluminescence, providing increased visibility at night and in deeper water.
Elisabets machine is a Stormbird. Since the girls have Sunwings and Waterwings, I’d imagine Elisabet would want the biggest flying machine of all 😂. And the twins think she’s so cool for it.
Horizon Forbidden West machine headshots compilation 1/5.
I wanted to do a summary of my headshots (not including tallnecks, which had their own compilation already) coz I think they look pretty good en masse. One or two machines are technically missing from my collection (grimhorn and specter prime) but neither are available to snap post-game (and I'm not yet mentally prepared for playthrough #4). Hopefully you'll forgive me.
Anyway, here we go. These are in no particular order, but I did pair them up according to some strange connections my brain made.
