Hey guys,

The contest sounds really interesting, so I will try to take part too.
I am not sure, if I will be able to finish my work, because I am doing work and travel in New Zealand for the next 4 months.

About my character : I will definetly go for team fantasy. What else ?!
To everyone who takes part, have fun and good luck!

So after i tried some things and noticed that there are so many many many ways for the genre fantasy to do a character, i decided to give me some guidelines. (hope you can read it.)
I did 3 different Races here (probably for an mmo).
tried to give every race their special attitude( obviously only the girls atm )

i am looking forward to your feedback/critique.

nice start! out of the 3 races I think the wild ones are the most interesting!
maybe you can push their uniqueness further.. maybe they grow up with a single beast that they tame and become partners?

since you'll only get to work on 1 character class, it might be better to show the entire race's personality in your concept/illustration. (in which i think beast taming race would be bad-ass!)

looking forward on more progress cheers!

thats a good idea i already thought about doing something going in this direction.

and yeah you are right, that it might be better to show it of later, but i had so much fin with it the i decided to try to a little bit in this step too

moritz_cremer 2016-12-28 20:12:55 UTC #5

I decided to do some armor sketches for every class before i decide which one i will choose.
so here are some for the male from the city.

Steve_Kim 2016-12-29 06:53:51 UTC #6

nice! my favorites are 1 and 3, in my opinion 2 might feel a bit sci-fi. between 1 and 3 I would argue that 3 has a stronger silhouette and it fits the concept of what you're going after. cheers!

moritz_cremer 2016-12-30 23:26:07 UTC #7

thanks for the feedback!
but therefore i really liked the idea of the tamer i lost the motivation for the other ones
so here are some ideas for the possible armor for her.
tell me what you think about it.

moritz_cremer 2016-12-30 23:50:32 UTC #8

and here some face and horn/helmet !? variations. also real quick.

Steve_Kim 2016-12-31 01:04:52 UTC #9

love numbers 4,6,10,12. keep up the good work man

sanguine 2016-12-31 04:16:03 UTC #10

I really like the look of those designs, the armored knights especially. 3 is my favorite:)

moritz_cremer 2017-01-05 06:41:33 UTC #11

thanks of the feedback.
So i know now exactly what kind of character i want to do.
its a beast tamer, who connects to their tamed beast with a life to life connection ( if one dies the other one dies too) with a glowing crystal the tamer inserts to the beast.
and depending on abilities and the kind of the tamed beast, the abilities of the character changes too. ( even the appearance )
my character will possibly connect to a cheetah.
and i named her Lynn.
here are some sketches

Steve_Kim 2017-01-05 07:27:54 UTC #12

cool!!! I definitely like the claw weapon more than the dagger knuckles or the dual blades, it syncs better with the cheetah beast However I do think that the tail on the character is too obvious and almost a cliche? but thats just my opinion hahah. Awesome stuff, cant wait for more

galaad1800 2017-01-05 14:39:41 UTC #13

I like fully armored models
But she may have one arm/hand naked, for the beast to smell her, but the other one heavy armored for mounted battles.

I don't know if my sentence is correctly written ^^ (I'm French )

moritz_cremer 2017-01-06 07:10:34 UTC #14

@Steve_Kim thanks For the Feedback. Yeah i already tryed something Else instead of the tail but i was not sure so i Ended up with the clichee tail
Unfortunately i damaged my Hand while working so i am not able to draw the next days ...( Rolling on the Floor Crying)

@galaad1800 that's a cool idea i will try it and look how it works.

Steve_Kim 2017-01-07 09:49:02 UTC #15

@moritz_cremer ouch, sorry to hear that. Hope you'll get better soon!

borjengoh 2017-01-07 14:41:11 UTC #16

Like the concept and design of Lynn, and I love the color scheme. They look so unique The claw makes a lot sense for this character tho

moritz_cremer 2017-01-13 04:53:21 UTC #17

i took the design a step further.
let me know what you guys think.
i replaced the tail with the hair somehow

Steve_Kim 2017-01-13 07:28:01 UTC #18

nice! i love how you resolved the tail looking really great, cant wait for more man!

moritz_cremer 2017-01-13 23:16:36 UTC #19

i thought that nr 1 is too armored for a character who is supposed to be fast like a cheetah. so i did some with lighter armor.
what do you think?

bloecher 2017-01-13 23:30:06 UTC #20

a lot of nice designs here, i like the belt of 3/4, top of 1, shoulder armor of 4, leg/hip cloth of 2
