Hello Tenno! (am I doing this right?)
I'm so happy to finally being able to show the work I did for Warframe - The Duviri Paradox! I had the pleasure of doing 3 illustrations featuring the one and only child-king and his ‘friends’! 😁
I had never played Warframe before (currently fixing this!) but I loved working on this project! Honestly one of my favourite jobs so far. I’m also very very happy that I finally got to do a little something for a videogame since it's something that I've always wanted to do :)
You can find these paintings in-game, usually inside open houses/buildings (like the Citadel, for example), and the Orowyrm one is on a cinematic near the end of the main quest!
it was inevitable as the tides, but it has come to my attention now that if i talk about how sexy Thrax was without specifying "thrax from cinematic masterpiece Osmosis Jones released in 2001" a lot of people get really confused bc they don't know who that is bc they're officially a generation removed from me at this point
rather than go "ugh kids these days" (like cmon don't be That Guy) or "ugh no i feel old" (I don't! guess I'm built different) i will ever so happily inform so a whole new batch of people can enjoy a something very unique and special to my heart that kicks fucking ass and hope they enjoy it too
and that a something is Osmosis Jones. especially the villain of Osmosis Jones. his name his Thrax. he is an lethal virus that is never fully identified (it's implied he is the Red Death, from the Edgar Allen Poe story, but real); other viruses don't recognize him, and he's so reliably stealthy and lethal he possibly hasn't even been properly discovered by science yet. he also only gets more lethal and dangerous as he infects new people, treating how fast he can kill his current host with fever as a PR he has to beat every time until he can cook your brain to death SO quickly after infection that he will go down in history as the single most dangerous illness known to humans.
so yeah take a look and appreciate what set the bar for my villainfucker sleeper code. they don't make em quite like this anymore. content warning for bright orange body horror. legit plays out like a scene in a horror movie.
first time using tumblr and ive been infatuated with osmosis jones ever since that fateful day I saw it free to watch on youtube
I never see people do art of these two acting like little goobers so I figured id do something silly
i have more osmosis jones doodles but idk if ill post them
also i dunno if the quality is shit or not? on some websites it is, on others it looks fine. if it is then yknow that sucks I guess.
also also fuck drawing thrax's face like what the hell is happening there my god look at his teeth what in the fu
The Beyonder looks like an industry plant Tumblr sexyman but not like how Vivziepop pops out her generic tramp stamps sexymen but like, Laurence Fishburne knew Thrax had potential as one but knew that he came out way too early, so he put in the work and studied the ways of the Tumblr sexyman to make sure that this one took off, he didn't just make a skinny man in a suit and top hat, anyone could do that, he made sure that this one had the flair, style and charisma, the real key ingredients to a sexyman, to succeed where Thrax had failed.
