#InkTomber2025 - Day 15 - Voncroycula, the Greatest Archaeologist Vampire

TR4 where everything is the same, only Von Croy is a vampire for some reason. You can't tell Seth possessed him because his eyes were red from the start😅

#InkTomber #TombRaider

A redreaw of the first cutscene from TR4, where young Lara peeks out from behind Von Croy in Cambodia. Only this Von Croy is shrouded in a long cloak with a wide, high collar and he has fangs. He does still have his canonical hat though.

#InkTomber2025 - Day 14 - Bats and Rats

As long as they don't attack, they're simply adorable little decorations ❤️

(The non-black version is here just to see their cute faces)

#InkTomber #TombRaider

Lara is very small in the middle of the drawing, she's running to the right on a flat ground that looks like only a straight line. In the foreground, there are rocks on the top and the bottom. On the top, two bats hang from the rocky ceiling and one is flying. At the bottom, three rats stand on the rocky floor. The rocks and animals and only as black silhouettes while Lara is black-and-white lineart.

The same as the first drawing, but the rocks, rats and bats are lineart instead of just black silhouettes.

#InkTomber2025 - Day 13 - Lara's Trick or Treat Bag

Of course Lara went trick or treating with her bottomless backpack😄

#InkTomber #TombRaider

Lara and Winston are standing at a table. Lara is in a skeleton costume (bones printed on the fabric) and she's holding her backpack upside down above the table. The amount of sweets gathering in a pile on the table is much larger than should logically fit in the backpack. Winston is watching it with a concerned expression.

I'd go with B, Boaz-Fly, because she's the coolest. Not sure she'd agree though😅

Either way, happy birthday Kristina!🥳

(And thank you for reminding me, I keep forgetting her birthday every year🫣)

Good, good 😂 (I love Karel especially with the double face)

I made colour palettes for my drawing project and I still laugh sometimes when I look at them😂 #TombRaider

A drawing of Kurtis, Lara, Karel and Morgau using only blotches of colour in approximate human shape. For example, only some of them have arms or a mouth and they have only one eye, apart from Karel, who has his Nephilim skin and eye attached to his human head. They look quite silly, perhaps a little creepy.

She crash landed in Himalayas, she was heading to warmer climates. The jacket was all she found in the plane.

#InkTomber2025 - Day 12 - Boaz's Broomstick Ride

Kristina finally got out of her lab to get some fresh air😊

#InkTomber #TombRaider

Boaz is sitting on a flying broomstick, legs crossed. She's leaning on one hand in the back, while her other hand is holding the brim of her pointy hat. She's smiling towards the camera. Her outfit resembles her in-game one, but her gloves are held by ribbons instead of straps, her skirt is a bit wider and blows in the wind and buttons are replaced with a string. The scars on her face now look more like veins or cracks.

Oh yeah that's fair.

Cammy's outfit definitely gave me a pause even as a kid (mostly because it looked super uncomfortable). Good for her that she wore pants sometimes! Well, even shorts would be more comfortable in her case.

Potkanka @potkanka.bsky.social · 4d

Practical pants still appear in TR3 in 1998. I know what you're trying to say, plenty of female characters had impractical outfits and yeah Lara sometimes too. But it often seems like Classic Lara is a scapegoat for this stuff while using inaccurate information.

Potkanka @potkanka.bsky.social · 4d

I agree that the picture is stupid, but they "let" Lara wear pants since the first game in 1996. Or if you don't count house clothes, then since the third game in 1998. She always had a variety of outfits, some with shorts and some with pants.

#InkTomber2025 - Day 11 - Shiva Slasher

Randy and Rory's last moments probably felt very much like a horror film. (Yes, I made Shiva walk on tiptoes so the shaking ground wouldn't alert them🤫)

#InkTomber #TombRaider

There is a hallway from left to right, with a turn going forward to the background. From this turn are coming Randy and Rory. One is peeking carefully around the corner to the hallway going to the right, while the other is standing behind him scared. From the hallway to the left, Shiva is nearing them on tiptoes with all six swords at the ready. The two humans aren't yet aware of the living statue.
