Here's a concept sheet of various elements to consider, establishing more the size I would like the champion to have, playing around with his sword, I like the wide blade sword but a thinner yet more Claymore-ish style might look more elegant. Still not sure if I like white or black dressing monks, probably going to use both. Also probably going with the uncovered torso rather than armor, has a more barbaric look to it and can make a higher contrast with his white skin and black clothing and arms/ legs armor.
More updates on the Illustration, working a defining still elements, decided for the glowing sword and red masks to add touches of color that contrast with the pale skin ,monk´s cloths and black armor. Being a fan of Dark Souls myself I like the armor textures it uses often, dirty or charred and ridged.
Nice going so far. Are you going to make the rock that was presumably holding the sword a little more impressive? Maybe some kind of dark altar or something?
Hello there, Thanks for the feedback! Of course, not sure what look to give it, was planning in some big stone made of petrified white bodies, just like you said, way more impressive and magic. Will be posting more soon
Very cool! Are you going to do some design variations or is this going to be the final design? I'm looking forward to how your champion turnes out! Cheers!
Thank you! Thinking on maybe add some ornaments and runes to the garbs, so I might jump back to some garb design variation and sword hilts as well, I got carried away with the development of the final illustration because I wanted to play around with the mood of the image as in elements distribution, rough color palette and pose, while it is a stiff walking pose I wanted to create that movement feeling they just arrived and the champion is just pulling his sword out.
Worked a bit on the cloth area to try some sketches over it for more ornaments and markings, one more cosmical and one more demonic, just some ideas. Also tried some hilts, not too flashy or ornamented, I like swords simple and sharp
Really liking the Designs so far Keep it up!
Thanks a lot!
Some more developing, recicling ideas. and experimenting.
man, that is looking fantastic. love your concept as well. really awesome art!
Thank you very much!
Some more detailing and fixing some pose issues, some pale tints added as well.
dyam this is super epic !!!
Thanks a lot man!
Woah, he looks like a bad ass dwarf white walker! The red-faced monks are a great addition as well. Your winter/ice setting gives the art a great ambiance which I think is really fitting. Nice work!
Thanks for the comment! Glad you liked it . I was looking for hi contrast between the enviornment and the black/dark grey and red colors, and a dark fiery abyss seemed too cliché so I opted for a white/iced abyss.
I think it is a great choice😀😊😊
Another update, playing with sword color and working on detail here and there, fixing some shadow issues, I'll keep you posted
Updated final the images on the first post of the topic, just in case I´ll upload the final illustration at the end of this topic as well.
I had great fun making it.Good luck everyone!
