OH. MY. GOD.

That second lady seems kinda... scary. Is she one of the nasty ones? She seems almost arrogant, or at least very confident.
Different from your usual Xylia style though, isn't it? I'm thinking almost Milo Manara...
Deci looks so adorable, I'd pinch her cheek but I'm afraid she'd stab me or something...

As for Claude... guh. Totally, totally hot!
He reminds me a little of Aragorn.

Also: just noticed the new banner, and it's Clocksworth! Awesome.

Hee hee heee......

Ya think?
(you should see the rest of the picture. Goodness me oh my.

I'm not going to tell you too much about Tychia right now. Going to be a little more tight lipped about this story. She'll be showing up in a while- hopefully around Halloween. ^_^ Bawha!

I didnt notice that Claude looked like Aragorn. That's interesting. I loved Viggo as Aragorn. I love Viggo. Claude is supposed to be kind of strange looking - Viggo is more classically handsome gorgeous hunky... I think it's the beard that's reminding you of Aragorn.

I thought maybe seeing Claude with a beard would remind you of someone else that would --- oh, Im doing it again. NO spoilin. No spoilin. Im not sayin nothing.

Bye bye

*drools*

I mean, uh... *hurriedly wipes drool away* Right. I can see Viggo a wee little bit in that piccy, but really I think it's the beard too. When I saw it though, I immediately thought of Errol Flynn for some odd reason, which then led to fantasies of Robin Hood. hehehe (sadly, a fantasy without chickens....) He doesn't even look like Errol, so I have no idea why I made this connection. Don't ask me. Biochem studying must have fried my brain.

Tychia looks awesome, and Deci looks like she needs some cute preppy guy to come around so she can hit him upside the head. BWAH HAH HAH.

... & loincloth as well... :D

for a second I thought he looked like Dr. Ambrosia, but now I'm not sure.
About Viggo- it's not just the beard, the eyes has something too!
Xylia looks so... smudged, & kinda snooty... I wonder if she has a memory from the past life? Maybe she's always mean to Claude, & he have to win her over every time! (boy, that's sounds hard- looking for her AND make her like you- every single life!)

About Tychia (how do you pronounce that? Tee-ch-a? like the goddess of chance in Greek mythology?)- she reminds me of Lucifer Morningstar in the SANDMAN comics. Blond & deadly. It's in the shadowy eyes.

I wonder how December will fit in the story- she seems so far from Claude pretty world... I'm glad tomorrow's Monday!

If it were me, I'd say Claude looks more like Dr. Ambrosia with the beard. Check the nose. =)

I'm not sure that's so much a snooty look as it might be a coy one. =)

It's actually TY-kee-ah. It is one of my made-up versions of a name based on a male name- yes Greek- which means "hits the mark" Tychia is a huntress of sorts. Yeeeeeahhhhh.....

She actually seems to me like a peculiar mixture of Halle Barry and the singer Pink. Rooooar. (Or if Tinkerbell was taking HGH....)

No more comments about Tychia. You will meet her when you meet her. ;-)

This actually made me laugh a bit, becuase I was researching sword fighting poses and Errol Flynn was one that I used. Ha. Ha.

Ha.

^_^

I loves Errol Flynn.

By the Chilli, Barb you have have done it again and showed us why we love your art.
I really like the piccie with Xylia, she looks so damn mischivius like she has gotten away with this great prank.
And Tychia seems to be an intresting character.
Deci looks like she has been told that she has to wear that frilly pink fluffydress when she goes to her grandma's place oh and that she has to leave the hat(?) at home.

As for Claude... guh. Totally, totally hot!
He reminds me a little of Aragorn.

I totally agree with this. When I first looked at it my first thought was 'oh an aragorn piccie' then I read S.I comment and realised that Aragorn has nothing to do with Xylia and that the pic was Claude. But as S.I said he is hot. And he can play Aragorn for me anytime he wants.

Claudes Aragorn look is partly dirt, partly beard and hair, but there's also just something in the eyes, I think...
*drool*
Ahem.
@Hagar: Yes, they do have a certain look in common! Or a feeling, maybe...

Why do I always end up in forums occupied by a population of silly and crazy girls (an a few stray guys like me)? :roll: Every time Barb posts a picture of some of her male characters you all go nuts. Then again, she does draw hot girls, so I guess it's no wonder if the men are twice as hot... :lol:

Anyway, I guess there is some resemblance to Viggo as Aragorn. And Deci looks like an annoying, tomboyish little sister... :D

Aww... poor Krozam... But then again- you are surrounded in lovely girls! You might learn something along the way about women!!! :wink:

Tychia is gonna beat me down and not even care about the blood on her boots AHHHH. But she looks so cool I don't think I'd care (outside of the bleeding and the pain).


Xylia is still just as pretty, but CLAUDE HI. HELLO UNSHAVEN CHIN. Oh my. Me like.

See, it got me sputtering broken sentences. DANGIT CLAUDE.

Sure, I've already learned a lot over the years. The question is: do I want to learn about crazy girls? :? Well, I do like to learn about human nature, so I guess I don't mind it...
