Some researches I made! At this time, I try to find an interesting concept, but I'm lost! x)
I try to find a good shape!

Here, I start add some details.
I think I will do a sort of Ocean Mage with his Ocean pet, but I don't know if it's interesting. x)

I like the gestures. I think the concepts cool but it needs more variation in the costume or clothes. Considering this is a character design contest, I don't think one piece of loin cloth will make a character interesting or unique enough. Maybe put some jewelry or a belt with some design to give him more of a backstory.

Yes sure! :smile: I will work on the clothes/costume, add an armor and a weapon (because it's war ofc) you're right! At this point it was just a little research to get into the challenge, to find ideas. :smile:

This is so cool! I love your style * ^ * Can't wait to see more!
(And judging by the name, I'd say you're a fellow french too? :smile: )

Thanks a lot!! :fire::+1: (And yes I'm French x) )

You're welcome! (Yeah! French team!! )

I like the fact that your outlines are, how do I describe it, smooth! and loosely! I love anyone with a good line skill! the initial looks very cool, with a owner/pet idea.
I suggest use the water element symbol as some sort of a texture or designs, u dont have to just put it on their forehead :grin:

Thanks a lot! :fire: I just love lines!
And yes, I think I will include the water element symbol on their clothes/armor, weapons, because on their heads it's very strange. x)

Some design researches before starting the final image!

Awesome! He looks badass! Great work! Curious to see the illustration :smile:

@rgdraw Merci beaucoup! :smiley:
Hi everyone,
I realized that there's just a couple of days before the end of the challenge, so I need to hurry! Here's the beginning of my illustration!

De rien!! :smile:
Awesome!! Very dynamic!!
Only thing I would suggest is that his head looks a bit too big to me, otherwise, it's amazing! Good luck for the final push!!

@rgdraw Merci! :smile:
Yes I think I will change a lots of things, I see a lots of little mistakes everywhere! x)
I hope I will end it in time!

De rien!! :smile:
You can do this!!! :smiley:

Here's a WIP, I hope I will find some time to finish it! I'm so stressed, I don't want to give up...

You're making good progress. I love how your champion is shimmering with a golden glow. Good luck finishing it! ^^

This is really looking great !
Your colours are super soothing and harmonized and the composition is so cool.
Go go go : 3

The stress could be a great boost too (of course not too much :sweat_smile: )
All the best of luck !!!

@tj-works @rgdraw @mr_dessin Thanks a lot!! :smile:
Here's the final image, I can't work more on it because I don't have enough time these days, but anyway, here's what I did! Hope you like it and thanks everyone for your support! That was so motivating! :smile:

Here's a quick overview of the researches! :smiley:
