The reason I asked:
**From Encyclopedia Mythica**
"Briareus
by Allison Kupec, Clarksville Middle School
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Briareus was one of the Hecatonchires, the hundred-handed ones with fifty heads. His mother, Gaia, was the most ancient Greek goddess and was known as mother earth. He also had two brothers. One of his brothers was Gyes; the king of Cydia and the other was Coltus. Briareus was thrown into Tartarus by Uranus, but was then rescued by Zeus, whom he then urged to help him struggle against the Titans. During that battle, the Hecatoncheires took advantage of their one hundred hands by throwing rocks at the Titans. "
In fact there are at least 2 mistakes there: Brireus should be "Briareos"
and Coltus "Cotys". I cant even make the relation between Gyes and somebody I would know of.

Yes, 2nd gen indeed. I didn't know there were comics with such an ancient Greek influence. Too bad I don't read them any more.

I think I've seen him before in an anime or something?
Are they cops and have to stop that guy in that computer thing under-ground? And he falls or something?
...sorry

Bria, you should have no trouble getting a job in just about anything involving drawing. Thats just my opinion, going on what I've seen. And when you do get some awesome job...put in a good word for me, will ya?

If you want to get kreegle to look, just PM him about it. I don't think any admins look in many forums except general disc. and in teh news.

Briareos, this is definetly some of the best fan art I've seen in my time at Vault-tec, heck it even rivals the amazing stuff from Moon at Vault-tec and the stuff I used to flick through over at Vault13.net before it became a porn site!
Seriously, I love your style. People who said they didn't like the later, asian oriented stuff don't know what they're on about. I think that it would be brilliant concept artwork for a Fallout game set in China after the nuke war.
But yes, beautiful work. Number #5 seemed to destinctly remind me of Dune by Frank Herbert, have you read that?

Great quality. Now go help Konami make their magic fighting 'Apocalyptica' game, 'cause these anime drawings don't look even remotely like Fallout artwork.
