DWIII - 2D - OmeN2501 - The General

#1

Hi there!

 So I decided to aid our troops in this war with my human Invoker "The General"  Hes  Artifact is extremely powerful Black Horizon Lance. It has Demon lady lock in it, which provides almost unlimited amount of dark energy to power up the artifact. Only problem is that demon lady, Yarii, is a bit...well... "unstable". Mood swings, kinda bitchy, high maintenance, blood thirsty and so on and so on :] She loooves killing so General has to let her out from time to time and let her be a bit messy ;P I got complete story for this couple so let me know if you wanna hear it ;]

 As you can see Black Horizon Lance is truly multi purpose device. Basicly the artifact can create black holes for a limited period of time. You can us it as standard magic device with demon lock inside, you can open demon lock and let Yarii cover your back while you casting spells. You can detach demon lock completely and leave it open for Yarii to hold this ground while you doing something else (you can eve throw demon lock with Yarii inside into places you cant access yourself!) 
 While demon lock is detach you can still use lance for spellcasting, thou energy is drained from power armour (details soon).

Also, since Generals is skilled gunsmith (his hobby ;]), middle part of the lance was converted into powerful rifle. It can stop most of enemies without using magic, but if you need extra gun power you can, with help of power head (if its attached) cast darkness spell on bullets. Finally you can attach Power head and Demon Lock directly (that’s actually original Black Horizon artifact… but that’s another story ;]) allowing Yarii to cast spells herself, thou its only for extreme situations, cuz Yarii is a bit… well. did I mentioned mood swings? :smiley: God only know what she could do ;]

 Anyway - let me know if you like the idea. I was trying to do something different than creating weird armour shape and huge sword. I like designing multipurpose things that can be used differently in different situations ;] 
 Coming up next are Generals "Power Armour" design "Levels of spellcasting" and "Managing Yarii" ;]
 Any comments are most welcome

Hi there! Nice start! I like the relationship you discribed between them hehe. Really cool sketches, only downside is that at first glance it doesnt look very intimidating or dangerous, then when looking closer sure i could imagine it very well but still. It could be that the staff doesnt look harmful at all… Maybe just work on some details that show they have really bad intentions :)… I think you’ll figure it out, looks like you know what your doing!

Welcome… Good luck!

Well since hes Invoker I don’t think he should look badass while hes not casting any spells. Next concepts will be about spellcasting, and you will see how this lance is morphing and can rip planet in half ;] With magic Its not only about physical appearance :stuck_out_tongue:

#4

Yea i totally think you can pull that of ;)! Ill check back for it… One last correction to my suggestion… It would be cool if there was something about the staff itself that gave a hint about the demons and wickedness inside.

#5

really like the design so far, but it feels a little too high-tech…

#6

I was aiming in some high-tech leftovers in design since it is mentioned in subject descryption that magical world presented in Dominance Wars 3 is descended from tech world

#7

Happy to see you by our sides Marek!
Smash them faces into the ground buddy!:smiley:

Great this weird & unstable demon living inside this lance!
Excellent start and storytelling
Some handy staff by the way!

Happy war Marek!
:beer:

So I made him a bit more badass, maybe a bit more retro, thou I still want to keep him a bit modern to hint that there was once technological society. Also his lance is a bit bigger and scarier… I hope :stuck_out_tongue:

Let me know what you think ;]

hi! good looking concepts and the blue prints are very useful to explain the artifact!

good luck

#10

this concept is awsome !

but the man doesnt looks like a general… more like a pirate

#11

Really cool concept! When I watch him I just get the feeling he should have something on the head, maybe not on the pic where he has hair. But the second one, I can immagine a turban or something :stuck_out_tongue:
I like the first sketch more though!

#12

I see so many cool 2d entries on cgsociety :).

I like the head in the last one, but the shoulder armor doesn’t fit somehow. It has too many sharp edges.
