Mali Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Good stuff man, although it needs more T and A... Like Eshaine said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icor Posted June 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Before I go to the insanity of shade, color, and detail, I'll show the base. This lineart render is considerably more clean than the render I did on the first one. The lack of hair doesn't seem to detract too much either, I kinda like how it turned out. =D Eshaine, I need feedback mostly from you so I can edit it as I go to make it as accurate as possible. EDIT AGAIN: Damn, I just realized that Eshaine put emphasis on "clothing"... as in, structured clothing that is more symmetrical. Hmm... Oops. I still have the mannequin though. Changing the attire is actually pretty easy after you've got the figure done (yes, I draw her naked first). EDIT: Mudder: Birthday Boy is not dead -- just temporarily deflated. =D ANOTHER EDIT: That's the portrait I think I'll use for Raar'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattamue Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Re: Unfortunately, I don't have his description. bio raar Born at: 1pm, Fifthday the 45th of Order (Winter) 574 PC. Aged : 285 (Right-handed) Description: An enormously powerful and stocky dwarf stands here, looking at everything and everyone around him with an incredibly surly and grouchy eye. Nearly every inch of him is covered with armor, all of it spiked and jagged, to better mutilate and rend the flesh of any who might dare oppose him. The armor about him is so thick, it seems to make him seem double his normal size; it is possibly even thicker and more jagged than the legendary heavy plates of the crusaders! What little exposed flesh of his remains seems to have the texture and the color of the rocky mountains themselves. A pair of massive spiked gauntlets are worn on his hands, with all sorts of needle like barbs sticking out from it; simply shaking hands with this dwarf would result in multiple puncture wounds! Each hand grasps two enormous axes, the each of the axe-blades larger than himself! The edges are as sharp and jagged as the rest of himself; truly, they are the mother(s) of all axes. His eyes burn brightly with a wicked, combat-ready gleam in his eye as he glares at all his surroundings. Truly, a massively short specimen of great power.

Raargant Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Great pic, but....more rage! More madness! Raargant's the guy that repeatedly beat the crap out of his own Knights for contradicting him on the merits of beer, then demoting them, then promoting them two levels, then demoting them so they were right back where they started . Not that I know much about drawing, but I imagine Raargant as having a more furrowed brow and an angry glare, with lips curled up in a perpetually maddened snarl. Mattamue, thanks!

Archbishop Monk Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 I don't like either drawing of Anume. Both lack the core of what I believe to be her main defining feature (at least to me). She's missing a cookie. Got to have the cookie in her hand! And maybe a bottle with a skull and crossbones in the other hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icor Posted June 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Anume Final One of my cleanest renders yet. I gotta move on to others though, I've spent about 10 hours drawing Anume over the last three days, Lol. I hope its accurate [enough]! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raargant Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Damn. Nice. Freaky nice. A darker background might be in order though, just as a thought, to add a hint more gloom and menace? Now I'm really interested to see your interpretation of Raargant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Implementor Anume Posted June 17, 2008 Implementor Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Very nice! (You have too much free time if you spend that much time drawing me ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icor Posted June 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 I was gonna put a lens shadow around the edge, but I tried that and ... I dunno, trying to stick to the concept-board look. That way I can focus on character design and not get hung up on backgrounds. =P Raargant and Korropant/Verch are next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigPapa Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Not enough free time!! -Really great work though, it will look most excellent on the Website. I think we skip Raargant and do Isadora, then Dilorry, then Elesa, then Palwen, and well, more womenz. If you do end up doing Raargant, more bulky,armored crazy dwarf, less gnome.

Icor Posted June 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Female figure drawing is a lot harder for me than drawing males. =P Which means I need more practice with females, but it takes longer. Isadora and Martineius are comin' up though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deykari Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Wow, that is incredibly impressive. I am no expert but I really love the style of those, very professional. I'm having a sneaky-peak on your DeviantArt right now. Dey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icor Posted June 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 You guys don't gotta look through all my crap if you don't want, I just wanted the staff to know if that they use these images they'll still be uploaded elsewhere. I'm really, really tired of drawing today... Raargant's is taking longer than I thought. Articulated armor and weapons are time consuming because you have to tweak perspective so much to get it right. This is what I have so far. Imagine another mother of all axes in his left hand sort of wedged into the ground. Edit: That's kind of annoying, my image host re-sized it on me... if its at the resolution I'm working at, it looks a lot better. Whatever. Its not done anyway. Raar', lemme know what you think needs changed/added right away so I can do it before I start coloring. Once coloring begins, I stay in coloring, lol. Another Edit: ... I think I'm actually going to take some free time and play the darn game. Lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raargant Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 No pressure. Get some rest. The drawing looks very nice, but the one major comment I would like to make is really one word: BULK! It might be the resizing, but he looks like one of the 'scrawny bastards' Raargant loved to mock. I envisioned Raargant more like the Juggernaut, body shape/bulk wise, except shorter, and with really brutally spiky armor (which you drew very nicely). I do love the facial expression you drew in particular! As with the body though, 'bulk' up his face, please, and make it 'stockier'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icor Posted June 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 Okay, sounds good. I'll widen up the plates and put a crazy head-ornament armor piece in. Everything's in proportion now, so if I widen stuff up, it'll automatically make it stockier by throwing the proportions .. off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mudder Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 Yeah, I always pictured Raarg being fat. He definitely has a beer gut! And I liked the original Anume best... That last one, whoa! Just freaky. Never hitting on her again with any char. The woman needs to comb her eyebrows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes; his class was, in fact, 'Battlerager', and his title was the 'Most Wild Battlerager'. Except he was bigger, uglier, and nastier than any Salvatore battlerager...
