DWIII - 2D WIP - Warlord (no name yet)

#12

Love the concept!

#13

Greats volumes and lines … as usual with ensemble studio artists.
Give him a big pet with big teeth !

#14

awesome character so far, and i really like the shading in his arm, though i think it might look more interesting if he(?) was turned just slightly more towards the “camera”

also, and maybe it’s just me, but i think he looks like a Milo, dunno why…

#15

Sketch number 2… not sure how I feel about this one but will keep going…

#16

Looking really nice. Both images feel a lot like Blizzard concept art, and that’s a very good thing.

I really don’t have much constructive to say at this point, so… Keep pumping out concepts; I want more eye candy. :twisted:

#17

well i definitely dig your first one more, but this one is still pretty rocking.

#18

First image totally rocks. It looks like a potential winner to me.
Just one thing, I kind of like when there isnt too much of the good stuff, but I think you might need to do “more” of him. If the guy was a random enemy in a game, you would need to make a boss-conversion of him in order to win. Symbols on his armor, crown on his (/her?) head.

Btw, he would also work very well with a water theme, looming over the pond watching his own reflections. Plastic-wrap kind of skin or fishscales. Perhaps too much warcraft?:slight_smile:

#19

I love the stylised proportions of the second character. Makes him have more attitude. However, I do like the helmet and also the magic spear thing of your first concept. Maybe you can combine the two?

#20

very beautiful your concepts man. I liked the second.
good job!

#21

They both look great. The first one has the feel of an Invoker while the second feels like a Warlord. Nice work so far. Goodluck!

#22

Thanks so much, everyone, for the compliments! Finally found a smidge of time to do another…

So here’s an idea for a male Gorgon-Invoker type guy… thing…
He acts as a protector of the relic.

#23

WIN! love the latest one!!
great style, great pose and the fact he is a creepy snake monster puts it over the top for me…

#24

I like the 2nd concept. The one with all the streamers off his back. He looks a little unintelligent though. Maybe a bad ass mask would hide that. All your concept look good though. Cant wait to see which one you go with.

#25

I Think The Last One Is The Best It Looks Bigger But It Needs Some Armor

#26

Thanks!

I agree he should have some armor but I wany to keep it as minimal as I can since he relies more on magic than might.

I’m also gonna change the relic that he is hanging from to something more branch-like so that it doesn’t look like he’s hanging from a lamp post. :stuck_out_tongue:

Not sure, at this point, which I am gonna go with…

#27

I had started a really quick color concept… will make those changes mentioned earlier in the next pass…

#28

Another revision to the Gorgon Invoker…
Added some armor and some strappy stuff and changed the relic to a tree-like thing…

#29

i like the new additions. the head being more upright makes him seem more imposing.

#30

Great designs and colors!

I really like the personality in the mask/face of the first character.

#31

I like that a lot better. The artifact being a tree makes him feel that much bigger, I almost think you could push it even further though.

That rules.
