Rhallin is a tiny spell weaver that uses an enchanted deer skull as a conduit for his devastating magic... and has a cute woodpecker living in his shoulder pad. Here's where my character sheet and illustration.

Amazing concept design and magic idea, Interesting character and face, I'd love to see more, especially the body design! Keep it up looking forward for updates from you!

I just have to say that if it goes in the right direction and it is as awesome as it looks it is going to be... damn , i fear for myself and my champion

Khulim 2016-12-23 17:23:11 UTC #5

Thanks! I'll be working in my sketchbook today to experiment with some more designs

deer skulls are really pretty. Luckily I was able to find one in the woods near my home, but i'll be giving it to a friend so I'll have to remember the details haha (it's sitting in front of my work area so I think it steered the direction of my concept).

Hopefully I'll be able to go in the right direction

I've been playing around with Rhallin's personality. He now has an undead woodpecker friend that lives in his bark shoulder pad and his snake has a collar with a heart on it. I also made him an artist (not a very good one) that makes really bad charcoal paintings on his clothes (like his loincloth). tips and suggestions are welcome

Really interesting character Khulim, those small pieces of armor are perfect for his character and his powers. The way you represented that he lives alone with his companion is fitting as well! Keep it up man I love where this is going!

Thanks for the feedback . I thought that having a cute little zombie woodpecker would be a a great way to give more character to Rhallin.

Here is the coloured character sheet of my concept of Rhallin right now. I'm liking where this is going. If anyone has any suggestions i'm open to them.

The weapon is a bit weird looking, how do Rhalin use it? Would be interesting to know

Khulim 2016-12-28 15:36:12 UTC #13

It is used more like a staff. Here is one concept for the illustration

sanguine 2016-12-28 19:26:07 UTC #14

Ohh, that looks so epic!! I need to see this finished!

@sanguine @Kreyhardt Thanks for the ongoing support and opinions. It's appreciated

So here is my next composition. When going over the theme of the ART WAR I realized that Rhallin is too relaxed to show him as a powerful fantasy champion. I have created a new dynamic pose that brings his serious side while also adding comedy from his animal companions. I think this portrays his dangerous side which is needed in this competition. crits are always welcome

here's where my colouring is at right now. Still haven't decided what to do with the background

rgdraw 2016-12-29 00:09:46 UTC #17

Really interesting idea ! Can't wait to see more !

Khulim 2016-12-29 03:18:00 UTC #18

thanks!

I've been experimenting with the background. I feel like the space in the middle is a little empty. I'll be trying out new things with it, but I figured I should post the process right now.

Really cool power, his outfit suits him very well too. And now that staff is frikin awesome, he kinda looks warlock-y. My only concern is the perspective is a bit off, and the lizard at the right seems a bit off pose too, it's just my opinion I hope I helped in some ways though
