Must...find...pictures....

Of an erinyes or an alu-fiend...maybe even a succubus. What I'm trying to do here is get a good devilish-looking female type character...even the right tiefling would do..to get a tattoo of. I used to be into bloodwars a lonnng time back and I seem to remember the (Ill-fated) trading card game having a good picture of an alu-fiend...I don't remember how their erinyes looked though I think it was decent, and I remember I didn't like the succubus..

But if ANYONE has any links to (or has some good images of) those particuliar type characters -- we're not talking "I sketched it during my calculus class" type drawings, we're talking tattoo-worthy (it IS going to be a permanent addition to my body, after all...can't be too careful with such as that...) please post 'em as a reply...it would be ever so appreciated.

Btw, I'm obviously new to this board -- so nice to meet everyone. Smiling

Have you checked out some of Tony D's stuff? He did the trading cards... do a search online for Tony Diterlizzi

Tony D's work includes some, if you'll pardon the term, scorching hot tieflings. Most of them aren't up on his website, but the pdf's of the Planescape books with his work can snag you a copy of the pictures with a screen grab.

Or give me a few minutes and I'll link to a scan of the alu fiend and Erinyes from those cards.

I remember those. Boy, I'm glad I'm married now, and too mature to comment on what I thought of those when I first saw them.

I remember *exactly*what I thought.

And it was something along the lines of: "Blast it. Why doesn't he draw guys this way?"

(ooc: thereby revealing that clueless the character may be male - but his player very much isn't...)

It does say something to your credit as a gamer that I hadn't realized that yet. I didn't even find reason to suspect. Bravo.

Funny, I never cared about the gender of his subjects. When I first laid eyes on DiTerlizzi's work, all I could think about was the ephemeral quality in each piece. Everything he drew seemed to be on the move of the verge thereof.

Well yes - the man is an inspiration for art and artistic styles.... but I get jealous of the amount of nice cheesecake out there at times. Eye-wink

Oh thank you thank you thank you...these pictures were exactly what I was looking for. The erinyes and succubus are both better than I remember, but the alu-fiend is exactly the same...many thanks to Marauder for posting them for me. And for everyone else who replied to my topic with information. Smiling

Whenever I end up getting the tattoo (probably in the next 2-3 weeks) I will certainly post pictures. I'm thinking something along the lines of the alu-fiend look, but keep in mind it's not like it's going to be an exact replica or anything...the picture is just to give the tattoo artist (a good buddy of mine) an idea of what I want. And it won't be in a bad place -- on my right shoulderblade. I've already got a few tatts (six) and this will pretty much take one of the last two "decent" spots I have left on my upper body. lol...but I'll post them. Thanks again! Smiling
