Here's a little thumbnail sketch of the first idea I had. Basically a "David vs. Goliath" type of situation. A huge demon has stormed the great hall and slaughtered everyone in his path... The last and only survivor is the would-be prince. The demon attempts to strike down the prince and gets more than he bargained for.

Not sure if I like this idea or not. I have a couple other ideas swirling around in my head. I'll try to flesh some of them out over the next day or two between work.

Comments, suggestions, etc... Are more than welcome.

Thanks,
M

Scratched that first idea... Working on something with a much more complex back story now. Here's a head concept for the main villain, "Kahh".

Suggestions are always welcome. :)

I think maybe a more dynamic composition would add a little more visual interest. Like, maybe have the camera lowered and looking upwards? That way you could really play with the scale difference between the demon and the prince (maybe the demon is so huge, parts of his body are obscured by atmospheric perspective? :P) Or maybe zooming out some so you can see more of the architecture and the dead bodies.

Anywho, looking forward to seeing more sketches :)
