I did this for a contest where you had to redesign a classic game character. I chose the Prince of Mindenhall from Dragon Warrior 2...

edit: by the way, here's the original design, by Akira Toriyama:

im totally bemused as why this hasnt got more replies, the first pic is sweet, so much so that the second one detracts from it.
the details on the guy could be treated differently, the sword the metal collar and his glasses, jewellryetc would have sharper changes in values and more highlights, i think u like to keep the values secondary to the line in some cases and not others.
saying that the pic is so strong on so many fronts, the background gave me a 'woah' moment, and they always deserve a reply ;)

The only thing i donīt like from your awesome drawing is the orange outline of the character, but iīm not familiar with that game Dragon Warrior, perhaps itīs a kind of glowing aura as those Dragon ball superwarriors megacosmic stuff? (by Akira Toriyama too)

Your colors and backgrounds are always great.:thumbsup:

charlie brown - Yeah I see what you mean with the values - though I'm pretty happy with the sword. Cheers :)

Pancreas - yeah a few people have said that about the outline. Let's call it an experiment that wasn't a complete success ;) Oh, and try to give Dragon Warrior a go, it's a great game!

Really nice! :thumbsup:

No need to say anything about that strange outline anymore i see. Why did you fade the end of that piece of cloth on his chest. Maybe i just see that the wrong way, but i is a bit strange.

I hope i don't offend your work by waying i like the background most, especially the castle and the boat. I didn't play the game, but i don't see how that young girl's face in the sky fits the picture there. Maybe it's part of the storyline?

Nice work anyway :applause:
