Finally, i was able to put together the first pack of thumbnails. But still not satisfied with them :frowning:

I've tried to organise my thoughts about the character:

  • Stylish in the outside and rotten on inside
  • Heavy head piece
  • Chained mask
  • Main colours: Purple+black + the colour of the magic
  • Twins? Two form male and female, like Loki
  • Coat or cape: nice cover, but the inner part is rotten flesh

I'm not finished all the three version but i couldn't wait to share with you the new ideas :blush:
The board should be updated because new inspirations have come up, like this Xerxes (300) like outfit. Golden panties, jeeej! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: :heart_eyes:

I'm happy. With these three variations i've taken the next steps. :blush: I can't wait the next weekend to get more time to paint...

Mixing the outfit variations is the best part. And after that the colour variations :smiley:

What do you think about them? I try to move forward to a really extreme character, so i'm really appreciate any kind of wild suggestions :wink:

Thank you! I definitely keep the bones as decorations, and pimp them some nice necromancer carvings. I can't wait to work on the details :smile:

So i've been reworking the costume ideas:
