"My custom made figure depicts a crucial (and one of my favourite) scene in Lara Croft's latest outing when she's discovers Thor's gauntlet in the Med Sea Underworld. It stands at around 6inches tall and was so much fun to make!"

Julian Wilson
"Well, clearly this is inspired by TR1 the lost valley. I went through many phases of concepts, I was originally going to create a scene of Lara in the hand of MIDAS, however things just changed and this is the end result, a very heavy gif.
I wanted to have it a video and add sound however that wasn't working, so I decided to let people imagine the music and Lara's "Aha!" discovery sound.

"The Story is from Revenge of the Aztec Gods by Katie Fleming"
All of the lights in the plane were flashing red. Signs lit up everywhere saying DANGER! DANGER! The plane shook violently as Albert struggled to keep in control. Lara tried to hold onto her seat as the plane jerked her from side to side. The beeping was getting louder and the pressure increased.
“WE'RE GOING DOWN LARA!” Albert yelled, his voice full of worry. “YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO JUMP. GRAB A PARACHUTE NOW!” Lara did as she was told. She fumbled to open the small compartment, which held the parachutes. She pulled one out and secured it to herself. She saw Albert doing the same. The plane was now starting to shut down, and the back of the plane was on fire. Lara took in a quick breath and flung herself out the door. At first she fell at an incredible speed. Then to her relief her parachute opened, and she dropped safely to the ground.

Jessica Gray
"The picture shows the scene in TR Underworld where Lara finds her mother. I did wind up adding clips from TR Legends because of how I interpreted that scene. When I look at Lara hesitating, I imagine she is having flashbacks. I
added the flashbacks I thought she would see--her mother kissing her, the plane
catching fire, her mother pulling out the sword. I also added the portrait you see in Croft Manor and the drawing Lara did to show what the family was like before this tragedy, and what was destroyed. I imagine all of that going through Lara's head at that moment right before she kills the Amelia thrall, and that is why it is such a dramatic moment for me (though incredibly depressing)."

"A short bit of writing, recreating the moment in Tomb Raider Legend, when Lara arrives in Japan to speak with Nishimura."
Most of the light came from the four large, translucent panels that extended up towards the ceiling, casting their pale glow about the room—a green tinted bloom pressed against the dark windows—and what was left of the place was lit by the several little bulbs hung on the walls: perhaps four, in total. Maybe they would explode, with a bullet.
It was enough, in this light, to squint from the top of the stairs and glance down to the bar, just across from which there stood, bare arms inclined at the waist, hair held up in fancy up-dos, white and gold dressed women stood before their cautious male partners, dappled with flitting spotlights, not quite pleased to be there.
“Lara. Got a call from Nishimura.” Zip, through her earpiece. “He's in his office, so he won't be mingling. The bartender will hook you up with him, though.”
“Ever predictable.”
Lara descended the stairs and began towards the elderly man stood serving drinks, passing as she did a blonde woman who pursed her shiny red mouth in her direction, before turning away, and looking—with a kind of lost, confused expression—at the darkness of the retreating corridor to the left into which her fading interest graded.
“Good evening. I believe Nishimura-san is expecting me.” Lara said, at the bar.
The man looked up, away from the shiny wine glass in his hand.
“Ah, Lady Croft.” He placed the glass with the others by his side. “He is in his office down the hall. I will let him know you are coming.”
“Thank you.”
The man did not move; she assumed he would use some kind of telephone to contact Nishimura before she entered. And, so as not to arrive too early in his office, she turned around and took a quick look around the relatively tame party. Lots of television screens; held to the walls on thin metal frames; they would probably fall without too much convincing. Two corridors, one to the left, and another to the right: both would contain the full blast radius of a hand grenade and funnel the explosion backwards quite a distance. The bar was long: accessible from both ends. Easy cover. To its left, near a plush seating area, stood the woman from before: her hair pared neatly at the sides, where a man had pushed a stray flower through the band of her headdress—probably gathered from the vase next to the pyramid of wine glasses in which stood a bunch of mostly pink roses, gilded with light from a nearby plasma screen so they appeared tinged with blue and sometimes yellow, but were always looking slightly out of place. A thorn stuck out near the crest of the stray flower's bud, Lara noticed, as the odd lady looked at her again. She felt uneasy, and so headed off down the corridor to which the barman had directed her.
Through her handbag, she fingered the but of a pistol. She thought there might be a confrontation, later. It never paid to arrive at a party empty handed. Though, she wouldn't find a use for the phrase until a little later.

"My piece is taken from the second cut scene of Tomb Raider: The Angel Of Darkness. Lara and Wener argue and Lara finds that someone has killed Werner. Was it her or someone else? I love this scene as it leaves the same question throughout the game. Who killed Von Croy? I think it is also a great introduction to the game as it throws Lara straight into the danger of being a fugitive on the run."
Murder On Her Hands
by ~Naids
"Help me Lara; I need you to get something for me"
The thunder rolled continually as Werner Von Croy said these words.
We were sitting in his cold apartment. I could feel that there was a bad atmosphere to the place. It felt like someone was watching us, but I ignored my instinct and tried to listen to Werner.
I didn't know wether to trust him or not. I hadn't forgiven him after the incident in Egypt where he hesitated to rescue me from a collapsing tomb, but I was interested in what he needed assistance with.
"Go on" I replied.
Werner got slowly got out of his seat as he spoke. His voice suddenly went very serious. "I'm tracking five Obscura paintings, for a client called Eckhart, but he's a psychopath." Werner's voice shook as he said these words.
Werner did seem scared, but the memory of the Egypt incident kept haunting me. Was Werner just trying to get me to finish his dirty work?
I was still mad with him, and I wanted to show him my anger.
"Why should I care?" I said in a rough no nonsense voice.
Werner walked towards me as I went to get out of my seat, preventing me from leaving. Anger surged through me even more.
A note of fear struck in Werner's voice. "Because I am being stalked!" Werner pointed towards the large circular window of his apartment. "People are dying out there!"
I finally got out of my seat and on my feet. Werner backed away from me, looking spooked.
"Handle it Werner" This was Werner's problem, not mine. If he wanted me to finish his work, he would have to think twice.
"Lara, please" Werner started pleading.
I gave in. He seemed very scared and frightened and I couldn't face what might happen if I didn't help him out. But I was still angry with him.
Werner ran to his table and handed me a piece of paper. "Look go and see this woman Cavier, she can help." Werner really sounded desperate now.
I turned around and said "I'm going"
Werner followed me, still looking frightened. I turned around and pushed him onto the seat he currently sat on. I still hadn't forgiven him for Egypt.
"Egypt, Werner. You walked away and left me." I lent over him, anger showing in my face.
Werner suddenly was holding an old fashioned pistol. I had no idea where it had come from.
Werner cried desperately. "Get out! Get out of the way!"
Had my words really upset him that much?
Everything went black. There was gunfire ringing in the room.
I heard Werner grunting in pain and his body dropping on the floor, his gun clattering to the ground.
I got up and saw Werner's dead body on the ground, right in front of the round circular window. The room was suddenly darker as I kneeled to the ground and rolled Werner's body over. As I rolled him over, blood stained my hands. Had I killed Werner?
I looked at the blood on my hands horrified. The Police would be here anytime soon, and I would be a suspect. I had to go and find these Obscura paintings for Werner. I had to get out of here.
It was all a blur, because my adrenaline was pumping through my body. Next thing I knew, I was running through the streets of Paris, trying to get to this Cavier woman. I needed to find her, but as I went to turn down a street, my thoughts were interrupted by a Police van blocking my way. I had no time to think. The Police had opened the back of the van with their sniffing dogs jumping out aggressively, barking at my appearance. I was suspect. I looked around, trying to find an escape.
I saw a nearby door I forced it open and was inside some sort of apartment. With no time to think I ran up the stairs in front of me, with the dogs trailing behind. I ran to the right of a long hallway after climbing the staircase. All of the doors were boarded with wood. There was no way out. I had an idea. There was a window which looked very fragile. With no escape route I stoped in front of the window, blocking my face with my hands so there would be no damage. The dogs were bounding towards me, barking furiously.
They jumped towards me, knocking me backwards causing to smash the window.
I fell out of the window, landing on a pile of garbage and onto the concrete. I grunted, feeling the pain.
Something was missing…
I looked up at the window I had smashed and saw one of the sniffer dogs holding my beloved brown backpack in its mouth, both the dogs barking at me in defeat.
I ran into an outdoor hallway, making a right turn and running outside onto a staircase guarded by a gate which was looked.
I jumped off the wooden railing and landed on the wet cement getting up off of my knees, I got to my feet and looked ahead. I have to find a way to get to Cavier's apartment.

"'Lara grabs Mjolnir'
Scene taken from a cutscene out of Tomb Raider: Underworld. Sketched with pencil and paper and than scanned and colored/shaded/highlighted using Adobe Photoshop CS3. Northern background taken from a trailer of The Elder
Scrolls V: Skyrim and edited further with lighting and such."

"Its from Tomb Raider III The Lost Artifact where when the wolves attack her in the first level... I imagine myself that I see this image while the game is loading showing this image instead of the newspaper and the sea-dinosaur (The original image)... So hope you'll like it... Its my best shot to draw"

"This piece was inspired by the final battle between Lara and Natla in Tomb Raider: Anniversary."

"My scene is the T rex Scene in The Lost Valley from the first Tomb Raider game. I have a 65cm ball jointed doll, painted as Lara..I thought it would be fun to put her in a Lara Scene. Her whole costume was hand made by me..."

Anika
"I built this entire room and Lara using The Sims 3. It shows the scene from Katie's story, A Strenuous Escapade, when Lara is trying to get past the
lasers in the storage room. I changed a few things so you can identify it. I know the lasers shouldn't be on and you can see the heat detecting pad, so pretend they aren't there. You can also see the crates on top of the pressure pads, the lighter squares. I know the area should be bigger, but I needed it
to fit nicely into one picture. I used the photo editing software that came with the game, Nero Photosnap, to change it a little. Now, if you look closely, it resembles a painting. Please ignore the green plumbob; I couldn't take it away."

"This is a re-imagining of one of the scenes from TR:TLR when Lara is being helped by her friend Jean-Yves in Alexandria. I decided to do this scene because I always found Lara funny when she carelessly puts her boots on Jean's desk without giving too much thought to it. With this re-imagining I really tried to keep the dark, Egyptian atmosphere that his office captured in the game.
My work was 5% made in Paint and 95% made in Photoshop. I like to call it a collage, because it combines various textures and objects taken from the internet, which were later seamlessly incorporated it in the atmosphere and overall picture with the use of shadows and various other effects.
o This is the scene I re-imagined:

"Memories of Nepal"
From Tomb Raider-Legend. Lara in Nepal at the site of the plane crash, remembering her mother.
Pencil/Painter X

Wilkins D. V
"A classic moment from Tomb Raider II: After navigating the Ice Palace, Lara uses the gong to shatter the ice and collect her prize. However, she unwittingly releases the Guardian creature from its prison, who blocks her only escape route. In order to make it out of Tibet alive, Miss Croft must use her wits and skills to take down this abominable beast. Talk about the worst snow day ever!"

"It may not the most memorable scene around but Tomb Raider to me has always been about Egypt and Mummies. It's from TR1 and Lara has just picked up the Ankh only to be ambushed by a Mummy. How does Lara Respond? Pump it full of lead of course!

tomoraider
This drawing is from Tomb Raider Underworld, from the end. It's when Amanda leaves the room in Nepal and Lara says: ''Goodbye mother, rest in peace.''
