Title: New Delgon Sketches
Post by: Carcharoth on January 22, 2011, 11:11:57 am
I've been thinking about the second Twilight book recently and one of the big jobs is having images of all the different characters and troops. I thought you guys might like to see what I've been up to so far, so may I present sketches of Roban, a strider and a derakeer. Roban in particular was a real challenge to get looking right. Let me know what you think - I hope you like them!

Gotta say, I heartily approve of all of these, though the Strider the most. Any chance you'd make one in that pose?

Very nice!!  I say hire this artist.  ;)

I especially love the Derakeer and Strider. 

Now, there are some things I would love to see next:

1. Some sort of battle scene (I know, it's not that easy to do, but that would be awesome!).  Roban smashing a Grishak with his club, while having another in other hand.  And a 3rd Grishak there ready the strike from his distracted side.

2. Fubarnii in color?

3. Delgon architecture or landmarks.


Keep up the awesome work Mike!

Ta for the comments. I agree that I would love to see all three of those things! The first challenge is to get a suitable drawing for all the different units in book 2. Once I've made some decent progress on that I'll start playing a bit. I would love to do a proper fight scene (a simple picture of a devanu fighting a knight is something I've never quite managed, but really want!).

I've got a few sketches of Delgon architecture that I'm not sure I ever shared. I might start a new thread for those...

Some day I will do a character strider in that sort of pose, as well as a repose of the basic model. Some day.

Here's another one... a couple of standard Delgon soldiers.

have to say I am liking all of these mike with the exception of the strider picture... it just sin't doing it for me. Better to leave them out of the book i think, and to stop casting them.
