Uh finally finished


I worked it for pretty long, plus i had only 2 days to finish it. But you know, designing and ideas took me 70% of time and drawing only 30%!

So, here please read how i worked. first, i researched as much as i can about Guardians

first i caught interest on Gaia's Tree with red stone icon. And here i came with several ideas.

On lef, my concept of idea for Guardians are three Origin Guardians- the ancient legendary armored beasts (wolf, big cat and gazelle- and notice they are mainly ilustrated on Eos map). On right, a landscape how I imagined would look that unknow land where gaia's tree lies. I did it more in mystic and fantasy style, because tree was supposed to be important and begin miracle of the world- which lies in asiatic (i imagine, land of dragon has more asian style) landscape and has red roots because a gemstone lies under.

Since originaly she wrote in roots lies red stone which posses all powers of Guardians- to make more sense, i researched about precious stones (i collect them too ), Corundum is legendary origin stone which produced Ruby and sapphire. And can have red color.
Those Origin Guardians are ancient, its said when Gaia's tree cracks totally and dies (left side of crack represents darkness, right- light according to two Goddess in story), to protect corundum ancient Guardians are released.

Wolf, is based on rome mythic statue. Represents natural Emerald stone.
Big cat (puma) is based on asian style, and shows Ruby.
And, Gazelle is from arabic ornaments style. Has sapphire.


PS: lol thats my first time tablet BG drawing, sorry i had do it roughly because it takes me forever! Im not good in digital..
