[amon_g]

Wow! I really like these concepts. Reminds me of R. K. Post's work. :thumbsup:

[BgDM]

Beautiful concepts. The Stilt Jockey especially grabs me as one kick ass character.

I, for one, would love to see these in a game. Would be fantastic.

Again you have amazed me with your work.

BgDM

[digitalshaman]

great sketches there, would be some cool characters for a sick and twisted Fantastic... six Thing :beer:

[Hexodam]

awsome :D

[CGmonkey]

Really nice Hawkprey!

Let me model one or two of the models, just for fun! :D I just quit my job and I'll have 2 - 3 weeks before I begin studying again..

[CnexS]

looks good, is it suposed to be a storybased game or a onlinegame?

[Titan]

kick ass hawk...I love it!

[Invader Zim]

As always, great work Hawkprey.:thumbsup:

Are you in the gaming industry at the moment?

[anieves]

very nice work, The first one reminds me of the Zeus station in the FF movie.

[McSpirit]

What kind of game would it bee? about the same as american McGee's Alice ??

Would be great to see sometime.

[unicron]

I think they look pretty good!:thumbsup:

When I saw the first one I thought of the zeus cannon from the Final Fantasy movie like anieves, but it's still cool. I really like the Hatchetman.

Did you hand draw these and then scan them in for a little photo manipulation, or just draw directly in the computer... or did you just use traditional means and scan when finished?

Keep up the good work:D

[YounesOUHBI]

Really interesting... good work!

[hawkprey]

well I guess I drew the Zues cannon in female form. ahahhaahha

Wasnt even thinking about it.

all of these are done in straight photoshop. 5 pixel brush just keep flipping between black and white.

Here is a couple more I just did.

No idea where she came from.............. hopefully not FF...ahahha

.... and I needed some basic gimps who are just mean as hell and die real easy. Lots of gibs and screaming when they get shot.

[abonora]

Really COOL style man!
Awesome contrast in all of them

[deLt]

LOL i think you need new cooler names for those characters ;)
Good stuff though!

[SkyNet]

amazing work! I love it!
I've got a c00l game scenario in mind but i don't think
any of these character could be in it :)
:beer:

[CreativeM1nd]

The concept art looks really good! Remind's me some what of the 13 ghost characters, just more action filled. I like it. Cant want to see how they come out in CG.

[Nosalis]

really good sketches. Have you send them to somebody ? I think you can work as game designer, .. if you haven`t work as designer already :)

[Biped]

Cool style!! love gatlin girl/stiltjockey/ and gun maiden, reminds me a bit of silent hill 2. :buttrock: :buttrock:

[erilaz]

Great stufffffff:buttrock:

You're not a Jhonen Vasquez fan by any chance are you?:D

[kr3ml]

Now that is creative !

keep up the good work ! :thumbsup:

[Konstruct]

jesus man,

thats some creative sh!t.
I know if I was working on games I`d hire you on the spot. good luck with that btw. front page and all, you might just get your self a job or two.:beer:

[Nighthawk]

:applause: I love your style man!!:applause:

[RockinAkin]

VERY impressive work.
I love the B+W hard line pen style you have.

Keep it up! More! More! More! :beer:

[reiv]

Good ideas and style. This pics remind me Tsutomu Nihei works, author of the manga "Blame!".

[Prs-Phil]

great, just great. I love the fatblossom and the kark ass.
Different to your usual concepts but just as neat.

[Nerfherder]

I saw these posted on Conceptart.org. They are really
well done. The rough style really brings forward the serious attitude they all have. Very non-quake/unreal wich is rare these days. The sad part is that no matter how good the models are in the end, the stylishness you've come up with is probabaly impossible to translate into polygons. Really well done!

[Nek]

Fantastic! I'am already your fan.
Atmospherically your artwork reminds me Blame! and Noise by Tatsuo Nihei.
(His great artist and storyteller. You can grab scans from http://www.omanga.net, but don't forget to buy official releas when it's out)

[Reezeex]

professional level!!
What are excellent work you did!!
you are so cool

[Larsen]

Excellent work man !

Atmospherically your artwork reminds me Blame! and Noise by Tatsuo Nihei.

That's exactly what i was thinking when i saw the pics, that's fabulous !

I must save those pics NOW !

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[olijosman]

Fresh and interesting designs!;)

[Cyborgguineapig]

this is some wicked stuff here:buttrock:

[jonestation]

Nice work.
remind me of Yasushi Nirasawa.
I like your
style

[Saio]

Great concept and style - keep it up.

[zedsdead]

that hachetman rocks! have you worked in game design before/ now?

[Schwinnz]

OMG THAT IS SOOOO COOOOLL !!!!

:beer:

Was listening to The Ramones - Blitzkreig Bop <--:buttrock: when I first saw them and it fit so much with the style !

Do you have any larger rez of these ? I'd like to print them and make some posters !

:thumbsup: :wavey:

[Refulgo]

went to see u´r homepage
one word .... WOW
one more .... awesome :applause:

[ShinChanPu]

Awesome strong concepts! Do you have someone with colour?

[BlueCougar]

Looking Awesome Hawkprey.

For you others that say he should get a job or become a professional, he is! He's been working at Legend Entertainment for awhile now. Go to his website and check out his stuff.

[hawkprey]

Thanks guys

I am so happy that people respond to these even though they are very rough and dirty.

Makes me want to do more. Unfortunately I am going on vacation today so it might be a week or so.

I think I need to do some riding beasts or something. I am still trying to think of a twist that will make them unique.

ideas?

[Nek]

cybernetic centipede formed up of parts
every "part" can walk independently forming whole monster when it's needed.
oops... looks like some anime stuff
ok
ok
let's add a brain capsule to the each part
I prefer not to see the typical "brain in the jar" thing but some spherical armor with beatiful seams plugged in the "part"
and a master part with human (or humanoid pilot)
controlling the whole beast.
The pilot can beautifully hang between "control part" antennas.

[sherban]

oh, poor Hawkprey....
going away on vacation ;)

j/k
amazing designs. Very powerful. Simple yet full of energy.
Hope you'll have the same energy when you come back.

:beer:

[mattregnier]

All I can say is I want the action figure of the hatchetman :D that is unbelievable design, keep up the great work...

[Jungle_Tintin]

:buttrock:
Very good work, it's very 'pro' :thumbsup:
I want some more !!!

Keep doing stuff like that :applause:

[lazyphoton]

Fantastic concepts, if you are looking to go to the next phase and maybe even create a prototype let me know.

Love the hardcore style and the spirit B&W brings to the drawings.

[andrewj]

man i love your style to draw. can you tell me how you learnt to draw that way? did you read any books or have some grat help for me? links tutorial etc?:applause: :applause: :applause:

[Expired-Coupon]

These are fantastic, and you have a style I truly envy you for. If I could draw at all.

This'd be a game I'd buy, for sure ;)

[ZVAN]

wow, look at that... did u guys see the art of metal gear solid.. wow, as good as that! u're superb!:applause:

[agreenster]

Your work is excellent.....

I could see some of these concepts turn into something like this (http://www.cgtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=76066&highlight=effigy)

[ufo]

I have been a comics asistance about 3 years in Hong Kong , now I am learning 3D . I really love your style !!! If your style can transform into 3D model , it must be great !

[policarpo]

I love it I love it I love it!!!!

Man...your style just rocks!!!

[wesware]

Great work!
Very creative and fun.
Slightly demented and evil.

[Joril]

Amazing, such originality is hard to come by these days.
Has anyone volunteered to model one of these yet?

[JPPLAY]

I would love to model one of these but I would want to work closely with the artist so I got his feel and image that he wants.

Im quoting myself because the guy who modeled the above link (a cgtalk member) should be the one modeling these characters...

[MajinPunisher]

These are just totally freaking rocking.

Really inspirational, makes me want to leave the office early today and just do quick sketches.

The exagerrated horrific style reminds me a great deal of concept art of the Quake games.

Great job, really dig the over exaggerated proportions, Gatling Girl and Stilt guy in particular.

Huzzah.

[cougarpride]

Really fantastic concepts! I hope your dream comes true someday... :applause:

[mehdianim]

Great designs, very original!

[d4rk]

Hatchetman brings back memories of this game I use to play along time ago. Forget the name, was like Twighlight 2000 but with cyborgs (it was on paper) we used lego figures for game pieces. Anyway I had a character that used to axes and was called Hatchetman, and I would just bring him out when I was bored to PK all my friends...:D LOL!

I'm a fan of yours, these images remind me of Tankgirl for some reason. But I like 'em they are cool! Makes me want to go break out my ink and pens, but I suck... so I won't...

[rayz]

wow...... these are good concepts, i'd really want to see this guys in 3d. it looks awsome :beer:

[nina]

Your stile is amazing, and your character design is really good.
Very inspiering!

[ehpawk]

hawkprey is a pro, easily one of the top 5 vifeo game concept artists out there. nuff said... give us more hawkprey... you have a large enough following why dont u try and do a mod/get a game published?

[enzodiac]

i've actually been looking at some of your earlier stuff before and i must say i like it ! This is the same top notch concept art. I wonder do you use a wacom ? if you are would you like to tell me what software you use and such ?

I've been trying to fix my wacom but i cant get the sketch feeling to it...

[davidSingha]

Very cool concept!

cheers:beer:

[Blair]

Excellent stuff truely beautiful work.

[hawkprey]

Hey thanks guys....... I am so pumped to do more of these.... unfortunately I am on my way to Antigua for a couple weeks of vacation. MY wife wont let me bring my Wacom damnit!

Cant tell you how excited all this response makes me.

You guys rock....

I will have to answer some of your questions when I get back in town.

Later
Jay

[blasphemy3_d]

All I am gonna say is that I wouldn´t mind to take some of the character you have done and bring him form paper to vertex man.
Pilot and Hatchetman are my fauvorites!

Congrats!:beer:

[Ian0303]

It is rally a good disign
I very like !!
hope someday can play your game
:beer: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[catbert]

holy shit. it's a cross between the gothic "alice" computer game, percillia queen of the desert, and the holocaust. i love it.

[igorstshirts]

Good use of black... Very balanced, nice work... (Some Hellboy influence?)

[malcolmvexxed]

When I talk about what deserves to be front page and what doesn't this is the kind of imaginative stuff that I think should be. Varied design maintaining the consistency and general themes. Great stuff.

[b1m2x3]

ok that looks so freaky. TRULY like a bad dream on paper.

awesome sketches :beer: i wish i has your skillz. :D

[Phugative]

Taking these beyond the concept stage would be a blast, I'd love modeling the STILT JOCKEY as a low poly or even a high poly, it lends itself to some really sick detail ideas. Nice Work!

[GnilihLiu]

I like the men
~~that's cool:applause:

[foreverendering]

hawkprey,

i've been a fan of your work since i first stumbled onto your site. everything you do is an inspiration.

[bluecult_reaper]

Those sketches rock man. If you released a concept book I'd definitely already own it. The style of these reminds me of the way Clive Barker draws. They are all very graphic and energetic. They'd make great tattoos too!!

The thing about a game is...would it work. I can't really see some of these characters in color or moving. They would definitely lose their elegance. I'd love to see some of the characteristics influence some new game characters. Hello? ID?

Keep it up, you rock.:applause:

[urgaffel]

And I loved them all... A mod with these concepts (or a full game if possible) would be so sweet... Well, it would be more of a TC, but still :) The concepts makes me want to model them, and apparently I'm not the only one. You're definitely on to something here Hawkprey :thumbsup:

[laber]

They all are really great! Excellent stuff and exactly the style I want to reach. You`re my new hero :)

[stevecullum]

You might want to check out 'The Art of Simon Bisley' for some further inspiration to your character designs.

[Aelius]

He he, brill! The Gun Maiden has to be my favourite in a perverted sort of way:D

[illOgic]

i say go for it. the creative drive, and inspiration is all you need. you could do full blown concepts, lay the game out, details etc, and market that. Im sure a game company would jump all over it. original game designs are extremely hard to come by, especially ones that are as dark and twisted as this one seems to be. If you went all out, like some of the concept work you have on your site, you could do it.

As far as the chars, wow. the look, different weapons remind me of maybe a sick "gladiator" type game or enviroment, or maybe like a "running man the movie" type scenerio. certainly wouldnt want one of them after me. :)

anyways, wow, i would love to see the progress. :)

[yade]

I've only been on this forum for a week or so, but I'm already a huge fan of your work. :D

Thanks for giving info about how you drew it, I love the sketchy and dark style of your work!! I'm also a huge fan of Blame!, I guess, so that helps. *chuckle*

I'm amazed at your creativity. Where do you get it from?? What's your secret? :D Some evil little demon on your left shoulder, or some innocent fairy in the potted plant on the window shelf? ^_^

Have a nice vacation!

[hawkprey]

Hey peoples

Made it back from vacation. I was astounded to see how many people responded to these. Goes to show if you do put your heart into something people will appreciate it..... thanks

Spent the past couple days working some new characters I had in my head. I am still having a blast with these.
anyhooo.......... hope you dig

[catbert]

WOW!!!! AMAZING STUFF!!! :D
i suggest naming the unnamed girl sylvia :)


although i like the robots least, because what i liked about your drawings is the sick'os that were NOT robot / heavy shield stuff we see so mjuch, theyre still great. i love the alien-esque last thing :)


i also love the white-knight thing. you should try doing a religious theme - a sort of post apocalyptic crusaders army, or a totalitarian goverment. that would rock.

[Titan]

beautiful work....awesome..I really like the unamed girl and the grenadier!!!
what are you gonna do with these man?

[Incrediblah]

haha. fart blossom......ahhhhhhhh
awesome characters.
