Description
Download for fullview. B>Ffffinally some reference for the big yellow bird that is, yes, the creation god. I mention Creator every now and then and maybe some people know who is he, but... Yes, another of the mere two gods of their universe. I hope all necessary is mentioned in this ref... Curse his fur collar though, I need more practice to try make digital fur with a mouse. |p
Random: Creator is actually my oldest character still in use, created in February 2000. So maybe he deserves his god status.
Btw, that glass work thing really exists.
Chaos!

Ooooooaaaaaarrrrh, a god OC! I love that creation story.
So THAT's what the postcreated are... Sooooo badass!

Does anyone else think this kinda looks like Ninetales (the Pokemon) turned into a bird?
Ninetales is my favorite Pokemon though, so that is a great complement
Anyway, this looks fantastic!

I only saw your art for the first time the other day, and while I pride myself for trying to look through all the pictures of the people I watch, I didn't see that until now. I could see how people thinking that might get frustrating, sorry

Not clearly frustrating, but boring in a long run. And usually people don't like when other people compare their characters with something else that doesn't even look the same.

Ah, well now I know. I originally hoped that I was providing a sort of unique perspective on your work, at least based on the other recent comments, but I'll find other ways of doing that without comparing it to something else
(It only makes me like Creator more though, if I still privately think it looks like a cross-species reinvention of ninetales

Creator really does have a pretty design.

It would be rather normal place without a bit too creative creation god and vicious destruction god. |p

Creator!!! Chaos!!! It's great to see these two finally get info sheets-- they both really deserve it. Imma put down thoughts on both of 'em in this one comment. Saves time!
Now, these two god-characters are very interesting. They have simple yet unique designs, which is great because a cluttered design takes away from the character's meaning. I think I like Creator's the best. When these two hold their wings at rest, are they always spread out like that? Or do they tuck their wings under, chicken-style?
Onto the characters themselves, it's an interesting creation myth! There's a lot of uniqueness to the fact that Creator often creates things that break the laws of physics. Does it ever create things by accident? I'd imagine that that's how Chaos arose-- one bad thought and suddenly you've got a DEADLY RIVAL. 
My critique (look! you're getting a crit!) is that the creation-vs-chaos god concept, especially in light-vs-dark form, is a bit tired. Blurring the line between the two, even a little bit, would make it more less formulaic. Perhaps they had some form of reconciliation at one point, or there's some redeemable quality to Chaos besides "evil evil evil", or so on. 
Overall, great work on these info sheets. They were a ton of fun to read. C:
I love the tribal corner and centerfold decorations, by the way. Did you do those yourself? If so, would you be willing to help me with one, a la a commission?

(Yet not that complete info sheets that you make. |D)
Not sure about the wings, since both birds have rather un-birdish anatomy. Wings spreaded, folded, used like hands, gods know how they work. (Oh man that was bad pun.)
Oh yes, often. It's the problem at being creation god, must beware what you think or it becomes alive. Chaos...one theory is that she is the answer for the question "can god create so big stone he can't lift?"...can he create something evil and stronger than himself. Well, not stronger but equal one. [I'm not sure yet. These birds are not the most talkative.]
That leads to your point. I have mental struggle between "it's supposed to go like this within all clichΓ© rules" and "this is boring, make some DIFFERENCE". <_> So far only development has been on Creator's side, making him less perfect as he broke his own rules and that's bad at least when you're the creation god (if I compare to classic alignment system, he has fallen from lawful to neutral good). So yes, something still needs development. Or one awesome idea.
I have made Chaos' ones (by hand actually, that's why they're not perfectly geometrical if you look close...I've also used those same style borders in some in my pictures) but used free tribal brush set to Creator's sheet (I was going to do decorations by myself but at that moment I got feeling that all tribals look the same when you've seen enough them, I could as well use some other ones and save time plus I don't feel like I'm copying somebody.) ... I may change them if I get a good idea or feeling that NOW I'll make my OWN tribal things no matter they all look the same anyway. |D

Yeah haha, being a creation god must be really crazy-- mortal like US can grasp it! For example, if you're a being of omnipotence and PURE CREATIVE ENERGY, how would you know what colors to make things, or what shape? It sounds really simple to us, but gods are probably really chaotic things that spit out random objects all the time. (as in Creator's case)
Best of luck to you finding more development, though. Sometimes ideas like that come with time...
Aaaaah thanks for that though, I saw the tribal borders and just fell in love with them. Tribal art is incredibly hard to learn.

If somebody asked from Creator how to make a living being from scratch, he would probably explain how important is that everything is in right places. I have thought it like that to create a lifeform you have to know EVERYTHING how to get it to work and how important is to build essence and memory if that being appears as adult when it pops alive. So it needs at least creation god to think all that "just randomly" and make even senseless things to work. Creator must think more if he wants make new beings that don't mess everything, if something unwished happens, he can't just swipe it out but have to create something else to do that.
Is that a challenge? |D I don't see tribals especially hard, but I've not really made them because something whispers "overrated". ...
I have a tablet that I got for free, it's old, cheapest model what is found, dysfunctional and at the moment 2500 km away in Finland so yes, I use a mouse. (And I've never cared to buy better tablet since I don't do digital art that much...all I do, goes well with a mouse and photoshop pen tool [that I use with a mouse].)

I was wondering if you'd ever make proper refs for these two..!
Creator, such a good dude.

I'm slow BUT everything is finished some day...! B<
A bit too good sometimes.

But isn't that what good gods are supposed to be? Too good?

I've always wanted to see you make something like this, yaay!

It was about the time I guess. <_<

Wow, it's so nice how you designed this thing and Chaos both. They're essentially birds, but their pose is both anathomically correct as well as human-like. I also like those glass-glyphs, so artistic.

I love the bit about blindly loving everyone until the end. That's a beautiful quote right there. Anyway, his design is very beautiful. It's simple but well put together

His love is also somewhat sad thing, I'd say.

Seems like it, but it's beautiful because of the sadness.

Sehr hΓΌbsch
Aber ganz ehrlich Chaos gefΓ€llt mir um einen Hacuh besser :S "Creator" ist so simple und einfach gehalten, dass mir das aufwendigere "Chaos" eben wie geschrieben besser gefΓ€llt ^^
Trotzdem beides sehr hΓΌbsch :3

Danke. Aber was ist "Hacuh"? Deutsch ist nicht meine Muttersprache und mein WΓΆrterbuch kennt das Wort nicht. |>

I'm really sorry for it...I didn't know before that it's not your native language..>_<

She means "hauch" which means breeze or breath, but it means "a bit" as "ein hauch".
π: 0 β©: 1
Alright. |p (Typos in text are bad for somebody who doesn't know all the words at all...)
π: 0 β©: 1
welp, I probably explained it bad.
Hauch - breeze, it can also be breath but that's rare
ein hauch von/um einen hauch/etc. - a bit
Just like the english words "pretty" and "put" can be more. 8D
Yep, she probably should have checked them.
