wow, there ya go. pretty cool idea, should make for some interesting pieces I'm sure. I'll take a stab at it this one, doesn't hurt to try hehe.

edit: gah, school works kinda piling up so I doubt I'm gonna have anything for this one :\ great work and good luck to everyone else though!

[trevor]

FINAAAAAALLLLLLL
" date 2259: planet: UW c238: this is only the second planet we had found with any sort of atmosphere in this system.
had i know how bad the first 3 years of terraforming had gone i probably wouldnt have taken the job. but 9 years later im still here
ive begun to feel less and less due to the strain of breathing this harsh atmosphere but because of my over exposure
im one of the few that can breathe unassisted in the open. i believe it is changing me.i have already lost my right arm, replaced by this clumsy electromag excavator. the ice deposits that i have been tasked to find are getting fewer and far between. i alone have been responsible for the last 6 finds but it still isnt enough. the public sees me as a hero, they have dubbed me the oxygen king
but i fear the deposits will run out soon. maybe 6 months to a year before we run out if i cant find any others
we are so secluded here i doubt evac could make it in time if at all. do i tell my people? or do i keep looking?
either way i feel we are doomed
no ice no oxygen no oxygen no life
i miss my children, my wife, i hope they understand what im trying to do "

[Serpian]

Hey, it's my first submitted CHOW!

He's married to the Carbon Queen.

"You don't know 'bout the Oh-two King? Larry, where've you been since the Big Ozone Collapse? His the richest freakin man in the Federation! Nobody thought he would make it when he started selling freaking OXYGEN, but then with the Collapse and all, the market was skyrocketing!"

EDIT: Reactions to suddenly appearing submissions.

Trevor: Cool!
Durin: Poor guy! I still have to pop in in your SB..
Fuuryoku: Wow, very special idea!
Eric Gerhard: Doesn't look much like a king, but cool nonetheless.
Faroresama: Poor Tom... "In retail", haha!

Oh, and completely off topic: what the HELL's this :nintendo: supposed to be? "Nintendo"? How is that nintendo?

[Piru]

Count me in!
From the description provided, I got the feeling that he is a torn character, ripped by his concience, pierced by guilt. I'm trying to get that feeling into my concept.

The Oxygen King: Aaron King, CEO of Oxxen Oxygen Harvesting Corp.

As CEO of the multinational company Oxxen, Aaron King has become the most powerfull man on earth.
His career made a rather strange twist of fate. If we go down the records, we find out that Aaron King was an ecology specialist, very concerned with climate problems, global warming and other signs of disastrous problems regarding the state our planet was in. His point of view was, that the whole planet was controlled by a few big players and he hated this profoundly. By the time that mankind had nearly destroyed it's own habitat, King had built out a vast network of laboratories and research centers around the globe in search for oxygen filtering and production methods, as war had contaminated most of the world's air.
This is about the time he made friends with the wrong people. They forced him into becoming the man he now is. The only true ruler of the planet, attached to the strings of others. Blinded at first, he now sees what has become of him, the only thing he never wanted to be. The terror of the small man, proclaimed king by a vast amount of suckups, but chained in his palace, an empty shell... thus living his worst nightmare.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v692/ChuckWadey/chow/ChuckWadey_Chow42_OxygenKing.jpg

In a deforested future, still powered by carbon, it became apparent that oxygen was becoming an invaluable commodity, much as water had been in the century before and oil in the century before that.

Anticipating the trend, Lord Javor consolidated his power by gaining the most direct control possible over that vital resource. Step one was a course of genetic and cybernetic alterations in which he converted his respiration system to expel O2. Step two was the eradication of every other oxygen source through the buyout and intentional drought of chloroplast farms. The bottleneck in oxygen distribution caused a global collapse of civilization and the die-off of everyone unable to reach shelter in his fortress. Tank hauling platoons were able to make temporary trips outside, working the fields for food production and extending Javor's power beyond the throne room, but for the most part he had to distribute oxygen directly to his subjects.

Now, in order to keep his tiny feudal economy running he must devote every minute to keeping his subjects breathing, either directly or by tending to storage devices. Soon, he thinks, he will give up and rest. As he slowly starves to death, he will take pleasure in the fact that no one remains who can dethrone the Oxygen King.

[sith]

you know, i never do these- and i really should. since i got about a week before school starts, count me in

[Simon Boxer]

My Wip...
http://www.thomscottart.com/images/oxygenking.jpg

"One hundred years it had taken him. One hundred years of sleeping, his feet in the ever more polluted earth. He had seen what was coming. he had seen that the air would turn to poison, and that the leaders that were would do nothing. there was only one terrible course to take. He changed himself, becoming both animal and plant, and over the course of a century he slept in a secluded valley, until he had grown large enough to stride the earth, devouring the poisons- now harmless to him- leaving the purified air for the survivors who now deferred to him as thier new anointed sovereign."

[Eric Gerhard]

This will be a lot of fun....
(edit)
Guys... I have finished, this is the final... Hope you all like, as I'm really loving all of your works.

Good luck for everybody.
http://www.gerhardarts.com/desenhos/ericgerhard_chow42_oxigenking.jpg

(edit) Ok, here is the description:

He gave his life to save mankind. In the 24th century, nuclear war had vanished most of the gases important for natural life on Earth. This great cientist knew that nothing could create and control a massive power of electricity to make oxygen. He turned himself into a living and concious energy core. He could now spend great amounts of electricity and control it without blowing him out. Through this act of pure love and desperation to save his so beloved homeworld, an enormous amount of the small rest of the world's population, bowed to his knees when he "asked" to be the ruler of the planet (most did because they were afraid of his giant power). Henceforth he'd be known as the King Oxygen.

[Faroresama]

no more WIP, changed my mind.

[trevor]

update above!
this should be a good round

[Eric Gerhard]

K, fellows!

I've updated my WIP!

[Faroresama]

Shiver me timbers, mate! Mayhap ye've had too much rum?

[Chuck,mate.]

trev - i understand now. :)

guys, it seems like i won`t be taking part of this one, after all.
too packed a Schedule. plus - i really can`t think right now of a GOOD
idea for an oxygen king piece.
sorry.

[Eric Gerhard]

Hey guys!

I've updated my WIP...

[Eric Gerhard]

[redehlert]

ok...since i'm gone on monday and have to frantically pack and do all sorts of pre-trip shite, i've slammed into my piece and am callin' it done.

cheers and good luck all!

[jackenstein]

Red, I can't wait to see the finished piece. It's very much like the concept I was going to go with, or mine is yours, I'm not sure which came first. Hopefully I'll be able to make this round.

[trevor]

woo hooo dave's in!
cant wait to see all the LMS stuf (even tho ive seen yours)
good wip so far
fix that damn grammar!!!!!!

[Wizard of KOZ]

DOH!!! Redehlert, it looks like ours are going to be very similar. Here I thought I was being so original. :^^;:


My WIP
http://www.landofkoz.com/Sketches/tree.jpg

[Jska]

Hey everyone - gonna give it another go... thumbs so far - I'm drawing and watching Adult Swim tonight heh :)

http://www.jskaconcepts.com/badaboom/dailysketch/092006jska.jpg

I miss my pens :(

(edit!) THIS IS MY FINAL - linework with copic multiliners on illustration board, with preliminary color block-ins w/ watercolor pencil and a final layer of gouache...

http://www.jskaconcepts.com/badaboom/CHOW/jska-oxykingCHOW.jpg

The story: The term "king" is really just an inflated and nostalgic term these days, granted to figureheads who have mostly corporations working in their guise. This "king" is one of the last of his species - a species that can convert the acidic atmosphere of this destroyed planet into pure breatheable oxygen. For this reason he was mutilated (as not to escape!), experimented upon, and shoved full of hoses so that his company "Oxygen King" can faithfully deliver oxygen to its customers.

Feel sorry for him, won't you?!? :P I wish I had more time for this, I would've spent waaaay more time on the background, etc. Good luck to everyone!

[surfacemonkey]

sketch WIP...

I'm picturing more like the baron off of DUNE... some rich politician in 2080 controls all the breathable air, and is therefore proclaimed king.

[Pesmerga]

I might actually participate for once. This is my first contribution (let's just hope I can finish it before the deadline :nohope: )

original sketch:
http://img73.imageshack.us/img73/3353/oxygenkingsketchtn6.jpg

previous update:
http://img234.imageshack.us/img234/3681/pesmergachow42oxygenkingwz7.jpg

Here's my entry. Unfortunatly, I don't think I'll be able to take it any further:
http://img165.imageshack.us/img165/6218/pesmergachow42oxygenkingya0.jpg

I guess I should explain the idea: This guy actually drains all surrounding oxygen. Everything he touches comes to life. But what good is life if you can't breath? Fact is, he's the only one that can provide oxygen. Either with his mouth, nose or any other gaz emiting holes. But of course he doesn't emit gaz (even when he farts, it's all oxygen!). So he's always kinda surrounded by life and oxygen, right? Yet he leaves a trail of death behind. Not cool.

I chose this very simple static pose to illustrate the apathy, the emptyness and boredom of his life. I tought a dynamic wouldn't fit in the context (unless he's expressing rage). With dying trees in the background, he's holding this beautiful over-colored flower in his hand and he's looking at it with very sad eyes. He's depressed cuz he knows that when he'll let the flower go, it'll probably die. So he keeps it near by. That flower is his only friend...

"For once -just once- I wanted to feel alive,
But I've never felt so empty inside...
Everytime I breed, I kill the air, I lose my hair.
I try not to move, I try not to talk, I try not to cry...
I try I try I try, but I cannot die.
A god of life? No longer am I...

I have become death, the destroyer of worlds."

[Wafflehouseninja]

WIP! Almost done i think.

[Johnnyhorse]

Finished!
http://i87.photobucket.com/albums/k151/JohnnyhorseCA/CHOW42OxygenKingFINAL-1.jpg
Desc.: As life became unsastainable on the surface, the only source of clean oxygen remained in the depths of sea. With harvesting operations racing for the most most plentiful sources of oxygen mining, the situation began to liken itself to 17th and 18th century sea pirating. Sources began to come too little, too late, and civilation made preperations for the worst. They dispatched one last effort into the deep dark sea. The Captain, upon securing the oxygen, remained true to the city's request. Unfortunately, the rest of the crew had other plans.

[Wafflehouseninja]

Placeholder... I've got ideas!

That's really value-riffic, wafflehouseninja. I used to frequent Waffle Houses pretty regularly late at night/morning, ya know... for your information.

thanks! Well im guna try and make it Value-Tacular b4 im done. and btw waffle house is an awsome place for late night sketch fests.

Trev: Your is coming out good. but im not surprised.

[Chuck,mate.]

waffle - fucking bitchin` piece! great values and character. can`t wait to see the finished bomb.

[Vulgar`]

Good luck with the topic. I await.

[Orifice]

ok im in, will probably be a half-assed one but nevertheless, im in. Of to it now then.

[Ostrander]

I think I'm gonna try and get in on this.
Here's a sketch.

posted another update in first post.. any crits maybe?

First things first work on the hand to the left. Also the lighting on the guy is supper strong light and the lighting in the rest of the pic is softer and more abient. darken up the pic or lighten the shadow of the dude.

[buck6455]

so the oxygen king here is my first post and really my first try at anything like this.

http://www.vainfantasy.com/art/buck6455_chow42_oxygenking.jpg

the way i envisioned him was as a lonely corporate type who is held hostage by his title. both the most important person on the planet and the most isolated. here he is standing at a window high in a oxygen corps main tower looking out over the atmosphere he controls. he has his own perosonal oxygen generator with him cause he's special.

[trevor]

wow waffle you just keep getting better
looks like you and i had a similar direction in mind man
although my guy is a terraformer/ miner guy

[Pesmerga]

Sweet one Waffle.

Buck6455: Welcome to CA dude. Nice piece.

I updated mine too. I still need to work on the legs, hands and background.

[redehlert]

updated and finalized my entry on post #29.
sorry i couldn't do more and i changed him up a bit...but the original was a bit too plain jane.
i may be ex communicado next week during my trip to lisbon! awww yeah. so, until then, happy ChOW!
cheers,

[Faroresama]

Alas, I can't finish this week's. college app time here and I'm swamped, plus I just stopped having fun working on my entry. Oh well.

[Piru]

First things first work on the hand to the left. Also the lighting on the guy is supper strong light and the lighting in the rest of the pic is softer and more abient. darken up the pic or lighten the shadow of the dude.

Thx, figured thos things out too, was working on a better integretad background, but will not have the time to get it properly finished, so I dropped out the background, you can check the previous wip HERE (http://users.skynet.be/durin/piru_chow42-wip7.jpg). Will repaint the hand if I have time to finish it, a fully loaded weekend you know! ;)

EDIT: Final

[Vulgar`]

Ah, I have a concept.

If only I knew how to draw...

[Eric Gerhard]

Ok, my friends. Mine is finished. Good luck to all.

Oxygen King
Final (crits are more than welcome)

Http://www2.hku.nl/~bruno/bruno/oxygenkingchow42bryno.jpg

-
In a far future, we as Humans failed to substain the ozonlayer. Therfore oxygen slowly started leaking into outourspace. The USA Area 51 tech.staff inmediatly started working on an ultra-secret oxygen-creating machine, providing fresh oxygen for all the Americans(in America). When almost finished, the 51 team needed one, final, hard to obtain part: Human lungs wich where capable of succesfully applying fotosyntheses. Not long after a poor Indian boy was kidnapped from his hometown, and transformed into an automobile- eh... Into an Ultra secret oxygen-creating machine. Later, he became known as the Oxygen King.

[Blue Severin]

crit: can't read your text very well Bryno

[Chuck Wadey]

I posted my art up top. Done.

I'll chat more tomorrow. Goodnight.

[trevor]

chuck you moved it!!!
ive been waiting all week to see my ass get kicked by you
repost it!!!!!

[Johnnyhorse]

Finished, updated above.
Can't wait (or anxious) to see the others finished!

PS. why is everyone's king fat? er, i guess they are kings...

[illy]

Alright. Here's my first shot at a CHOW. Don't laugh please. :D

http://ilyoungbang.com/images/art/illy_chow42_oxygenking.jpg

A mysterious black sphere appears. Silent and ominous. One man is drawn uncontrollably to it. Mental images cloud his mind... vivid pictures of earth's doom and the extinction of every living organism on the planet rush through his senses. He is shown the power of the sphere... the ability to sustain a source of oxygen on many other planets within millions and millions of galaxies. But he must give up everything he knows along with any remains and any possibility of a life in order to take on the task. The decision was made and the sphere took him in, strapping and bonding him to it's own surface. To distant planets they traveled, and soon enough, humans would colonize and escape extinction just a bit longer.

[Johnnyhorse]

Don't forget your description! Otherwise, we have no idea how your oxygen king works as a concept.
It's a good start. Only crit I have is that it really doesn't need the blue glow...

[xgabo]

My Contribution, comments welcome:

The Oxygen King

2084. After two centuries of unbridled environmental damage, the air we breathe became irreversibly rotten and poisonous. The atmosphere reached saturation so fast, not even the darker forecasts could predict the tragedy. Soon people started dying, their bloody black lungs vomited on the sidewalks. While governments pointed fingers at each other, civilization spun out of control.

In an act of desperation, scapegoats were soon picked, and exemplarly punished. Industrialists and factory owners were condemned to walk the wastelands tied to giant air purifiers which sucked the poisonous air into filters and returned it clean to the atmosphere. It was mostly a symbolic act, since the number of machines was not enough to clear the air in large scale. "Oxygen Kings" they were ironically called, due to their headgears similar to crowns. Wherever they walked, they were scorned by the people.

As the atmosphere became inhabitable, al that was left of humanity moved underground, or into giant pressurized complexes. One by one, the "Oxygen Kings" died, and the last of them was seen walking the ruins of what was once London. He chose to stay outside, convinced of his own guilt in a crime all of us had participation. People say he will keep walking the Earth while his machine still works; the last inheritor of the kingdom of man, monarch of an empty realm.

[Tyranx]

Xgabo, your picture doesn't show up, but I read your story, and oh man, so powerful...

[Supervlieg]

Jska: Thats looking promising

Wafflehouse: Nice b/w. Great job. I would love to see some color on there though.

Bryno: Back with a vengeance! Nice pic man. Maybe a bit too dark? . I would love to see some cyan highlihgts in the lung parts though. And the crown is a nice touch, but looks a bit out of place since it doesnt reflect any blue surroundings. Give it some blue reflections man!

Chuck Wadey: Your Photobucket image has been removed. Which sucks, me wanna see.

[xgabo]

Tyranx - Glad you like the story. The image shows here for me, anyone else having the same problem? let me know so I can fix it.

[AndrewLey]

"Sustaining what little remains of the tree of life and guardian of its offspring, the Oxygen king represents the source of mankind’s suffering and its futures only hope."

Awesome entry, xgabo. You too Andrew, I love the intermingling of the classic armour with futuristic technology. Chuck, your entry looks fabulouth, but it's lacking a description. Will one be provided?

[Jska]

Eric - THANKS! I might actually FINISH this time too!

Added my WIP, it'll be done by midnight!

[crazyace31]

here is my version of "The Oxygen King"
http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n166/crazyace31/oxegen-kingchow2.jpg
“The one Scientist who thought mankind should suffer their fate, was the only one who knew how to save it. He developed plans that could be used to build a device that creates the oxygen man so badly needed. He refused to give these plans to the people because he didn’t believe in saving those who had caused the destruction. However, the people retaliated against the scientist, stole his plans and built the device, and as a sort of punishment imprisoned him in it. The machines life source is the scientist and so in effect the scientist never dies, but at the same time he is never truly alive. As a cruel joke he was given the title ‘The Oxygen King.’”
