The piece is looking really solid, i love the ominous vibe you conveyed, i would love to discover better his features in the sheet, perhaps it could be the most challenging part to give him compelling designs throught his aetherness, LOVE it sick job!

nevs38 2019-01-02 18:02:39 UTC #103

Bro... Thank you immensely for your kind words. Really meant a lot!

You are absolutely right... It is challenging to work around the overall design. Much of it is a clash/mix of certain elements. ; solid, vapour/mist, foliage..and a bit of magic. All connecting to nature itself... Much being a part of it.
But I will need to try and simpllfy it in the sheet or maybe add extra elements that gave me those ideas...more so... Help build this character.

Let's see which route to take.

Once again.... Thank you so much.

Atatatata... Maaan.. Every iteration of this thing just kept getting more Evil and more Unstoppable.
How's it gonna be defeated I wonder

nevs38 2019-01-03 11:58:53 UTC #105

Bro you gave me goosebumps LOL

But in a way ... i'm glad it's giving you a feeling of sorts.

You know what ... it cannot be defeated. It's the dark side of nature itself. Unless or only if the wrong ( done by mankind ) can be reversed... Then yes ... "STOPPABLE" but not defeated.

This is exactly why i took on this piece. It just had to have a message.

matiaskandali 2019-01-03 12:11:59 UTC #106

It really gets your message across. Awesome Work!

nevs38 2019-01-03 12:15:03 UTC #107

Your encouragement means a lot <3
Thank you so much man \m/

Pressure is on .. and i hope to do the best i can with the final image.

Cheers haha

Don't worry that was just (bad) joke ^^
Although...yes I did it too many times in the past...we're both wise men of course now xD

nevs38 2019-01-04 08:02:00 UTC #109

LOLL XD omg XD

But i'm still making stupid mistakes though XD
don't know when will i ever learn.
Hopefully in due time.

But yes ..... i'm trying to be patient .. taking some time off .. so that my mind is cleared.

mr_dessin 2019-01-04 08:09:26 UTC #110

Don't tell me about it...mine are huge mistakes sometimes (and sometimes I only notice them on/after deadline xD)

nevs38 2019-01-04 08:32:28 UTC #111

hahahahah XD
I swear that is crazy XD

However .. come to think of it though ... it does happen with a lot of artists out there.

Let it be ... we're with you all the way

Nev, watching this come together has been a joy buddy. Its so clean and direct, so vivid and detailed. Something near impossible for me to ever achieve with my loose and crazy style, which makes it all the more enjoyable to see. The whole atmosphere is frightening. This just keeps getting better an better. The hands are just brilliant. I saw an earlier post with a human soul being wrenched out, which was epic. Is it still there? If it is apologies, its just harder to see now. I can kind of make out a human object but its not clear to me. But apart from that your work is inspirational buddy.

nevs38 2019-01-04 15:30:50 UTC #113

Bro.. Thank you so very much for your words. Emotion is really important for me. And it has to be based on something.. Whether bad or good. I hope that this piece helps people understand somehow... What is currently happening in this world.

Dont ever think that you can't achieve something.
Once you put your mind to it.. Things will fall into place... Everything will be at your fingertips.

For me.. even now... I'm still learning. So much to explore. It's crazy.
We're all in the same boat bro.

As for the soul element....thank you for pointing it out. I will fix it immediately!
I was too caught up with so many things... Didn't notice it until now.

Bless you Arron! 🍻🧡And have the most amazing New Year!🎉✨⭐
Thanks again!

I've been lurking in your thread, you've put a lot of work in this and it shows. I can't wait to see how it ll turns out. I'm more into concept art than illustration, so I'm looking forward to your design sheet :D. Keep at it man!

nevs38 2019-01-04 19:06:51 UTC #115

Hehe Thanks a million buddy!

I have to admit... the concept sheet is getting little tough. Most of the visual explanation will be in there. Hope it'll be just as good as the final illustration.
Keeping fingers crossed.

julians_jam 2019-01-05 16:03:55 UTC #116

damn thats a cover illustration. good job!

nevs38 2019-01-05 19:51:17 UTC #117

Really feels great you saw it that way.
Thank you so much buddy! 🙏

This is a very incredible piece, man! Just scrolling through all of the posts was quite a ride, lol. Awesome stuff!

nevs38 2019-01-07 03:03:11 UTC #119

Bro thank you so much!
I swear man... This seriously has been a crazy ride. Just few days to go... And numerous fixes, tweaks.. What not XD lol
Praying the final piece will be just as good.

nevs38 2019-01-13 06:34:00 UTC #120

This is it guys ... I've tried my best to keep all important elements within the cropped region. My head is racing on this last lap :\

But for now ...here's the final landscape version.

Now onto concept sheet finalization, write-up and little fixes on the main piece .. which will be the actual cropped (portrait) version.

God bless you all for helping me come this far.

Wishing each and every one of you the very best of luck!
