Hey lovely community!
This will be my art war hero in scene:

The style will be stylized and handpainted mostly. I plan to add titles on the book covers - parodies of famous fantasy novels like Sword of the Wings, Larry Otter and A Judge of Barbs and Tulips (ha-ha).

I will live stream most of the process: www.twitch.tv/enalya
Next step is blockout out the character and sculpting

I hope you like this old know-it-all!

Quite uncommon approach. I do like overall "warmth" of the scene. Will keep a close eye on this one.

@RKurczewski Thank you! I was kinda tired of all the same looking female heroes

UPDATE - high poly sculpting

Keep going @enalya ^^ Im realy curious about this one, id love to see it finished and you have a great concept idea!

RKurczewski 2017-02-11 17:48:24 UTC #11

I think there is something weird with his sideburns, they do not "blend in" like real hair do. Wouldn't it be better to sculpt them out of the head and then paint?

enalya 2017-02-12 12:22:39 UTC #12

@skylarc88 Aw thank you, you really inspired me with your entry ^-^

@RKurczewski Good point, I think that will be solved in the hand painting phase!

enalya 2017-02-15 21:19:56 UTC #13

UPDATE - high poly sculpt done, on to retopo!
