Description
This is a slightly older piece but I always liked it. Creating cartoon versions of real Egyptian hieroglyphs was fun.Remember kids, tomb-robbing doesn't pay. You'll only end up getting your limbs forcibly removed by a cranky mummy.

Aww, he even has a little fez! Poor Fazir... 
Great use of lighting and color! This picture is a great example of having a base color to work from! 
You're fantastic.

Aw, thank you! 
Not only did I start with one base color for the painting part, I also tinted my pencil linework after I scanned it to enhance the feeling of the warm torchlight.

Awesome! I love the eyes on both subjects, one of trepidation, the other of ... "you're dead."
And the hieroglyphs ... is that hyena droppings right under the torch?
And of course the lighting is great!

I'm so glad somebody noticed that!
I swear that in my research I came across a hieroglyph that was (presumably) a jackal with circular dots trailing behind it. Maybe they're supposed to be footprints in the sand, but I like to think that they're jackal poop.
And of course, upon that determination, I immediately said to myself, "That one's in!"
Glad you enjoyed it!

The mummy looks awesomely scary.
And the bendy perspective on the wall is great too

That is so awesome!
The colors are very cool - and the walls with all the hieroglyphs are well done!
