Nice backstory, although to me it seemed to lead to being a hero :sweat_smile:
Costume no.3 seems to have the most defined silhouette, so I'd keep iterating on that one. :grin:
Keep it up!

Thank you, yeah at first I wanted to go hero. But I thought what could be more sweet a villain that has no morals, he’d just be empty, being controlled. Theres a few easter eggs in the story. A devil in disguise, a tainted heart. The true villain is the Astral that lost it all. ^_^

4th may be interesting too.
Good luck !

Thank you, Ill see what pops up when finalising.^^ Appreciate the input.

As you can tell I'm feeling 3, 4 to me had a younger feel, almost like it's still a kid and not quite ready for whats to come. Really appreciate the input ^^

Well I'm no moderator but I feel this does reach inappropriate levels, which collides with the guidelines, so if this one has to do with your final illustration I'd suggest against it to avoid any potential disqualification. :relaxed:

It doesn’t, it was just an illustration to show pieces of the past in the story.

Such a cool background story, you can make a whole universe out of it!!

About the comp, may be it will look different with color and more polish, but the dragon looks as important as the main character in your picture, if that was the idea its fine, but you can try pull it backwards or make the values have less contrast.

Looking forward for the next stage!

Finally Done, I’m having a few problems submitting with the crop and that but I’ve updated my top story to contain these images.

So grateful for all the amazing input and comments, it’s been an amazing journey for me. It really helped me grow as an artist. Thank you guys, really appreciate it and hope you enjoy.

That is some unique style you have for your illustration !
The character sheet is really nice as well ^^

All the best of luck & I really hope to see you in the next Artwar !

Thanks man, wish you all yhe best. What will you do with your initial first character i really like him too.

@aeguilrod - Thank you man, I didn't start the same time as everyone, But I did what I could with 15 days ^_^
@innocent - you're right I really love an artwork to have a little texture, I always feel it adds that authenticity, i may be wrong but I do enjoy it, surprised you noticed :smile: you have a good eye.
