Good character

but You have to remove that conic sans text because it spoils the image.

...but I agree about the text, and would further state that using the Warcraft logo detracts from your image immensely. Sure, there are many fans of Warcrafts out there, but for the rest of the world we'd rather see your character for who HE is, and now who Blizzard has inspired you to make him.

Basically, for every Warcraft fan there are two or three Oblivion/Guild Wars/Whatever Other Game fans who despise Warcraft, and won't look past the logo you're using because Warcraft fan-art is rampant on the web. It's like when The Lord of the Rings movies were coming out, and every third image was "inspired" by the movies. How come those artists weren't "inspired" by the books?

My point is that your troll looks great as a standalone creature, and no reference to Warcraft, Lord of the Rings, or any other generic fantasy media is necessary to show off your hard work. You were inspired by YOURSELF, so take the credit for your own inspiration!

I think you did a great job of capturing the essence of the Troll Shaman while extracting some of the WoW "cartoon" look and incorporating a more "realistic" (for lack of a better word) feel.

I really like the detail on his gear.

Thanks.
