Different sketches , I’am so SORRY i didn’t publish anything , but the next Tamatoa tuesday i have a suprised for ya’ :3.

Okay , first i have reading Ripekanga and since i read it i wanted to draw a scene and that :3 i don’t have many inspiration lately so this inspired me a little , i guess? -Ripenkanga it’s from  @raptor-moon and  @jadewolf-writes ,-

Tamatoa is the fucking king of Lalotai , hech yeah all hail Tamatoa .

Then we have Maui being hypnotized by Tamatoa’s biolumisncent..... i have to admit ,since a long time i wanted to draw that.

And we ended with a comic, sorry Maui even tiny toa knows that u ar an idiot but .hey! at least he think your the good kind of idiot.

Ripenkanga

It looked awfully familiar.

The little thing blinked up at him with big, glowing eyes. Maui smiled back down at it, his teeth shining a stark bone-white in the moonlight.

@jadewolf-writes @raptor-moon Oh shit, this ain’t gonna end good.

You know, I always imagined Aiata as sounding like Kate Winslet in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.

Huh!  I actually hadn’t seen that (not a Jim Carrey fan), but I just went and looked up some clips of it.  And wow!  She pulls a pretty good American accent!  I totally could see that as an option for Aiata!  I dig it!  :D

We tossed around the idea of Tessa Thompson with the accent she uses in Thor Ragnarok as a potential voice, too!  There were a couple others, but I can’t remember what they were. XD

Thanks for sending this!  Love seeing fun speculation and stuff like this! :D <3

Follow Me Into the Dark

“She came to me... a spectre of the night, silhouetted by the moon...”

Just something I drew for Tamatoa and Aiata.

Aiata - Threat Display

So, I was on a roll this week with the drawing and decided to draw Aiata in a full-body pose, too.  She’s very angry!  I pity whomever she’s about to hammer those claws and forelegs down upon.  They’re gonna get their telson whupped.

I based her aggressive stance off the behavior of actual coconut crabs when fighting.  They heavily involve their forelegs in their attacks, raising them in threat and then striking out with them often before ever resorting to their claws.

Aiata is an original character from the Rīpekanga fanfic series about Tamatoa and her coloration is based off this female coconut crab.

Another Aiata drawing! Did this one on my red-eye flight home to Florida last night. Touched it up a little after I woke up from my post-flight nap.

If you haven’t noticed, she’s Big Mad here.
