It be kinda cool if in your lore that the Manturai were not only mounts for an ancient civilization but also guardians of old temples. And now that centuries have passed, some continue to protect those temples from thieves, grave robbers and tomb raiders, while others have gone back to their wild side and have a greater knowledge of being stealthy predators.
I hope it is the wolf like drakes if it is I am so happy. I love this guy's art and the entire lore behind his fictional world. It is just so beautiful and I want it to be a game. ❤❤
I couldn't agree more but unfortunately making it again might limit some of the aspects of how these creatures might move in interesting ways or interact with the environment around them so I'd rather imagine instead of Taking My Chances with something that could ruin my view of these creatures
This was awesome! The manturai was such a cool idea, and the idea of orcs riding the barbarous drakes is so cool. Eventually once the world is more nil you should do a video designing all the races and factions.
Interesting and Fantastic Idea with Manturai, they look so Epic, Oriental, and Deadly! I Love the Barbarous Drake, definitely Badass and Powerful looking! It would be Awesome to see an Orc ride one into Battle! And Happy Smaugust! XD I hope we get to see more Dragons, Wyverns, and Drakes in the Future!
Oi sou brasileiro e conheci o seu canal a mais ou menos duas semanas Estava a procura de um canal que falasse sobre criaturas (míticas,mágicas,ou monstruosas), e encontrei o seu,agora ñ perco um vídeo Espero que seu canal cresça e fique maior e melhor do que já é.
Inclusive tenho algumas ideias: Vc poderia adicionar ao seu bestiario lobos terríveis(seriam grandes lobos negros com o pelo espesso e grandes caninos), uma espécie felina espirada em um dente-de-sabres, um mamute com presas de gelo (Que serviria de montaria para os trolls ou para os anões), sapos venenosos gigantes, algumas serpentes como a hidra,serpentes marinhas, serpentes emplumadas , aranhas e escorpiões gigantes.
This is just a suggestion, but a creature based off of the Leafy Sea dragon that uses its camouflage in dense jungles to stalk prey before creating and setting "traps" to catch larger groups of prey, or injecting the prey with a neurotoxin to later use the prey like an incubator like the spider wasp would be an additional challenge for soldiers
One thing that could be interesting could be to give the mantoids a second pair of arms instead of them just having four limbs or four pairs of legs so the mantoids could have a pair that they use as weapons and a pair that they can use to manipulate things
Id love to see a creature similar to a siren/mermaid. But instead of looking like ariel, it looks more like an angler fish. It resides in the depths of the ocean, rising to the surface when ships and boats are afloat above their territory and lure in the sailors to the bottom of the sea. Their captivating singing voices entrance the sailors into throwing themselves overboard. Id call them Quires (as it sounds like choir) id love to see if youd do this idea!!
. the colouration reminds me of Tyrantrum, odd seeing a mantis samurai as it seems like a thing i would have seen by now, nice work here . legit i thing BARBAROUS might be 1 of my favorite descriptors, such a cool word for such a cool design, awesome job
Can you make a snake like(skullcrawler inspired idea cause of course I’m a fan of the monster verse) Dilophosaurus(the real one with no frill or venom spit but large with a strong bite) with primate like arms(not so long that it needs to knuckle walk but long enough to allow some powerful movements like martial arts if you want) as a dragon with wings
Hello James, your channel was recommended to me recently. I liked the creatures you make. I had an idea for a hermit crab + buildings. And I'm not Brazilian either. If you're interested in making some monster with Brazilian animals, that would be cool too.
Idea for creature for u it is a mix of barberik Viking and a trap jaw ant they are about 7 foot 4 they live in hives like otger ants with one queen if u tame a queen u tame the nest
I was a little disappointed the manturai ended up becoming a two-legged creature, since I don’t believe you’ve done any truly insectoid or otherwise arthropodal creatures in this series so far, but I think the design ended up being more unique because of the design decision and was probably better off for it. I find it very interesting that the barbarous drake is a relative of both the behemoth and (I assume) the coastal drake, considering the behemoth is pretty mammalian and the drakes are more reptilian. I wonder what the evolutionary history of this world’s creatures are like, guess I can only speculate for now.
Oh, so that's what we're cooking tonight !? Samurai Mantis ?! Okay, bring it ! *starts shadowboxing* I'm ready and on vacation ! Edit : Locked and Loaded !! Let's f*cking go !! EDIT : Oh, only two creatures, this time ? Oh well, I choose to believe it means the next video will come faster !!
Good sir, I've been watching your vids for awhile and these dragon designs are so good I have got to ask, do you happen to be the lead artist for monster hunter?
Will do some wolf based creatures at some point. For improving lineart I would say the most important thing is to vary up the line weight (thickness). Bolder lines for the big shapes and smaller more feint lines for little details within the design
Hey Josh, I also am working on my own world but the issue is I'm not great at drawing anatomy and I want to learn but i don't have a lot of free time I was wondering if you have any suggestions on how I can learn quick
i dont see much artists that specializes on drawing creatures and monsters, im glad i found you
You probably already know of him but sawyer Lee is incredible
Describing the idea of the Manturai being an early game creature makes me want an Monster Hunter style game with these guys
So do I
Very much same

The Boar Drake looks like a Draconified Kaprosuchus! So neat!
A centaur like creature would be real cool. I love what your doing btw, super creative.
Thanks
Samuri matids.....THIS IS GONNA BE HYPE
Samurai* you forgot the a.
Mantids* you also forgot the n.
@@MaxReallyDoesntCare no offense but it don't really matter
Just pointing it out.@@Madcold56
@@MaxReallyDoesntCare ok and?
I can imagine the Manturai making sounds like those clicking noises The Predator has
Hadn’t thought about that but I like it!
@@JoshWhiteMonsterMania thanks
I hope it is the wolf like drakes if it is I am so happy. I love this guy's art and the entire lore behind his fictional world. It is just so beautiful and I want it to be a game. ❤❤
A samurantis Rex ! Genius ❤❤❤❤

@@gamesquad539 yeah I agree
Soup
Nothing much we were just having a short conversation
Please do the Bunyip, Kraken and Cyclops
cool concept for real never think mantis combine with samurai will be that cool creature
Really like both designs! But the manturai are particularly inspired, super cool idea!
Okay but a Mantis Samurai is SUCH a perfect combo im surprised its not been done before
that drake is dope, love the idea of variants on the same creature
Got get back to the forest Manturai jack.
I love Mantids!
Manturai, It's Unnecessary🥷🦗, Barbarous Drake, Looks So Good🐗🐲.
I love the Manturai designs, It reminds me of the Prawn Reaper from The Wings of Dawn game.
This was awesome! The manturai was such a cool idea, and the idea of orcs riding the barbarous drakes is so cool. Eventually once the world is more nil you should do a video designing all the races and factions.
These are so cool, I love the idea of dragonlike creatures not being based around lizards. That drake looks straight out of an orc camp xD

The new Scyther evolution looks good
I think it'd be cool to see some unique bugs

Leafy sea dragon based creature is something I definitely wanna do in the future
Pheinox,Lindworm,and Kelpie please.
Thats so freaking cool man! Keep up day grind bro.
Thanks!
Cheese is just a loaf of milk
Good point
I don’t like you as a person
… but could be in soup

Interesting
Now this is a truly awesome mythical creature, imagine this thing coming at you and slashing you or something, even its name is cool btw

make a Mace mantis
. the colouration reminds me of Tyrantrum, odd seeing a mantis samurai as it seems like a thing i would have seen by now, nice work here
. legit i thing BARBAROUS might be 1 of my favorite descriptors, such a cool word for such a cool design, awesome job
Thanks!
Hollow knight reference 🗣🗣🗣
Another entry!! I love your designs, and they have inspired me plenty too, good work :))
Thanks!
Ah yes, the ark approach. The only way to make a mantis look cooler is to give it literal swords. Very cool design
Episode 8, you say, but I see a fully developed title card!
Can you make a snake like(skullcrawler inspired idea cause of course I’m a fan of the monster verse) Dilophosaurus(the real one with no frill or venom spit but large with a strong bite) with primate like arms(not so long that it needs to knuckle walk but long enough to allow some powerful movements like martial arts if you want) as a dragon with wings
Amazing
You should make the different mantoid species different weapons, maybe one with two great swords, or one with some sort of axe arms
Evolutionarily the back spikes on the drake would mean there is something bigger that regularly ate them.
Please make a hedgehog+turtle+giant spider
Like so he can see it
⬇️
You should make a direwolf ni think that would be pretty cool
Do a roc and griffin hybrid please
Great so far! Love the intro!
But,... what makes a creature a creature, and not an animal?
The first creature seems a fusion between bisharp and scyther
You have made the plains raptor so I think like a Zebra buffalo would be cool that the plains raptor has prey
YES YES YES YES
Manturai reminds me of Scyther
We need an evolutionary tree
Hello James, your channel was recommended to me recently. I liked the creatures you make. I had an idea for a hermit crab + buildings. And I'm not Brazilian either. If you're interested in making some monster with Brazilian animals, that would be cool too.
I tought the barbaros in the Drake was a referance to the barbaroosa boar
You should make some smaller animals to fill those niches.
Yea I got a few in mind Im planning on doing soon
The drake kinda looks like Angurius from the old Godzilla films
Idea for creature for u it is a mix of barberik Viking and a trap jaw ant they are about 7 foot 4 they live in hives like otger ants with one queen if u tame a queen u tame the nest
😊
Still waiting for a desert drake

Is that the Darksiders 2 forgelands soundtrack 😅
Idk why, but the new narrator sounds like the narrator from transformers war for cybertron
hey I was thinking of a creature like a camel but with some details that remind me of a moose.
Does this mean that the behemoth is draconic?
Day 2 of asking for you to please draw a frog/toad and ankylosaurs mixture type creature.
how does the mantoid eat? gona be hard to pick up a body part with those blades for hands.
I think there are a lot of predators in your Fantasie world I would like If you do some prey but I also realy like the Mantis Samurai thingi
Man 1: what’s the name of your factory?
Me: JURASSIC PORK🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh, so that's what we're cooking tonight !? Samurai Mantis ?! Okay, bring it ! *starts shadowboxing* I'm ready and on vacation !
Edit : Locked and Loaded !! Let's f*cking go !!
EDIT : Oh, only two creatures, this time ? Oh well, I choose to believe it means the next video will come faster !!
could the manturai be mounts possibly?
A polor or brown bear like drake or dragon?
what app did you use for your map?
When are you going to make more episodes😅
Can you do another video of PokeMonster Hunter, please?
Good sir, I've been watching your vids for awhile and these dragon designs are so good I have got to ask, do you happen to be the lead artist for monster hunter?
Haha the artists that work on Monster Hunter are way better than me. That would be a dream goal though
@@JoshWhiteMonsterMania you're too humble good sir, very excited to see your fantasy world finished though, these creatures are spectacular!
Hello I'm just starting out in drawing, could you give me some tips?
John Eldram is saying you work with them on there creatures is that true or do you not know them
I am the concept artist for Eldrem, yes. (Its Josh not John lol)
Drake idea or race bipedal super croc with high intelligence 🐊
Hi, could you do a Wasgo or a wolf-like Drake?
Also, you got any tips to improve line art?
Will do some wolf based creatures at some point.
For improving lineart I would say the most important thing is to vary up the line weight (thickness). Bolder lines for the big shapes and smaller more feint lines for little details within the design
Looks more like a targ than a drake
Bro you can make like a marines cratures to expande the world like leviatan ir monsterof ness lake
Im font talk english this Is my first try
Who does the voice over for the new narrator?
Hey Josh, I also am working on my own world but the issue is I'm not great at drawing anatomy and I want to learn but i don't have a lot of free time I was wondering if you have any suggestions on how I can learn quick
I would just suggest watching UA-cam tutorials. There’s tons of great artists here who post top level content for you
Where did you learn to draw? I’m trying to learn to get this good
Also what are you drawing on?
Pretty much self taught besides some art tips and tutorials from other artists here on UA-cam
What app do you use to do your art, I’m very interested in doing this kind of digital art ❤
Procreate
2:21 is this am island on earth or is it is own planet?
Yea I’m curious as well I assume it’s earth just from a universe where’s there’s giant mantis Samurais
It's a fantasy planet, the fact he refers to it as the "world map" should tell you something lol
🗿👍
🗿🤝
Drakes? Ayo watch out he might take to kids
Jaguar creature Please I will sub if you make one I swear
Day five… SOUP CULT
Hay John . Got some news . Eldram just admitted he copies all of your ideas and slitly modifies them . I’m sorry for this
