TRU: Natla and Amanda by *Razzek:iconRazzek:

Artist's Comments

Inspired by EleganceLiberty over on LJ, who feels the same way I do about TRU (it's dull and the graphics are super ugly; we both want more Amanda and Natla and feel that a game focusing on them would be more interesting than a game about Lara at this point).

Yes, this is meant to be loaded with subtext (Natla herself is nothing but subtext methinks :D). I couldn't help but wonder what the relationship between these two was like over the years. Amanda seemed to be Natla's puppet, but she was aware of that fact yet helpless to take control until the end.

That's the worst crying face I've ever drawn. >(

How could you go on living, knowing everything you do is a waste of time?
:iconignitus1992:
TRU? Is that the most recent one, or what? o.o

This is rather sad, even though I don't really get it all... meep =/

Much hate for TRU ending, too.

My advice for learning how to use color: Paint an orange. :orange:

Every time I draw Natla, I can't help but think of you. XD
:iconrazzek:
TRU = Tomb Raider Underworld, the latest game. Yep. :)

From what I've seen of her, it never seems like it's fun to be Amanda.
:iconrazzek:
I'm officially indifferent about the ending. It wasn't any worse than the rest of the game...and the rest of the game was pretty suck-tastic from what I've seen. >(

I'm afraid I did like the interaction in the end with Lara and Amanda, but that was it. I suspect I'm really just an Amanda fan now. :D
:iconcaptainq1632:
Ah, I wouldn't say the whole thing was bad, but there were several problems to be sure.

1. Redesign Lara's face? Bad idea.
2. Kill Someone Important? Twice? Bad idea.

The rest of the story was OK, and I liked the game a lot overall. It was better than Anniversary and a fitting sequel to Legends, at the very least.

The one where Lara blows up her house, or what? (Obviously this isn't something I'm very familiar with XD)

Yeah, that feeling kinda got across here too =/
