Tundara, Master of Otters

I'm not much of an artist. I doodle, and I fend myself when there is a computer with a big Undo button, but I don't feel I'm that great with the pencil.

However, back in 2008, after a huge campaign mainly driven by Tundara, Ice Melee finally got buffed. Sure, it was just an AoE fix and the single target damage sucked, but it was a huge victory for the then insanely anemic power set.

To celebrate the occasion I started to do something I rarely do: a piece of character art. For one too many distraction, I never finished it. Given this may never later get a chance to see the light of day in a place where it is relevant, I figured I may as well post it here. The piece is rough, I touched it up a bit in Pixelmator but mostly to minimize the pencil lines a tad and make the yellowish of the paper look white.

It's blurry, I have no scanner and had to take a photo with my phone, something I am apparently also not very good with.

Tundara has not posted in these forums in a few years, so if anyone happens to know him or how to get in contact with him, let him know so he can have his delayed trophy.


Anyway, here it is:


Tundara, Master of Otters

Love the picture! I imagine a Mako-like shark attack that instead launched gleeful otters.

A Freudian slip perhaps, the root cause of the delay?

Hmmm...I may still have some contact information lying around. I'll take a look into it.

I like this pic. Though I feel like she just threw the otter in the upper right. Still Otter Blast sounds like an awesome set, or at least very cute.

What's a Freudian slip?

Root for the (4 year) delay is mainly that I hated the inkwork and so never continued work on it. I moved recently and found a few art pads I had in boxes, this was among the lest horrible pieces. Sort of wish I never inked it, though.
