@mr_dessin Don't say your usually wrong bro. It's your opinion. I appreciate the honesty. Thanks a lot for the feedback. The first to designs are distracting. I really love design 3 as well. I probably make the sword bigger(like Guts sword) but I'll test some composition first before I do that. Thanks for the feedback as always.

@gil-ascher Thanks a lot for the feedback. Hopefully I can make an epic illustration as well.

Awesome job! No 3 is my favourite so far. He really looks intimidating now

malcom 2017-12-26 21:31:01 UTC #23

That's good to hear. thanks for the feedback.

WOW! You've definitely improved since the last Art War.
I like where you're headed with this. I would recommend breaking the silhouette more. You've got some good shapes on the helmet and shoulders, but the rest of the armor seems to be a bit smooth.
Good luck!

It gives me a realy cool dark templar - starcraft feel, mybe its a good place to serch for references! Also, in the new sketches, the third one looks really consistent!

@glubglubz Thanks a lot. Glad to hear so. Thanks for the feedback as well.
@racnos thanks for the feedback and suggestion. I will check that out.

I love those thumbnail sketches. I'm looking forward to seeing some painted concepts:) Nice work!

evehartman 2017-12-28 21:11:15 UTC #28

Great artwork so far, would love to see you progress towards the final character!

malcom 2017-12-29 16:50:43 UTC #29

@sanguine good to see you again. Color version coming up
@evehartman Thanks for the feedback. Hopefully I don't disappoint.

malcom 2018-01-02 01:13:02 UTC #30

WIP....Feedback always welcomed.

Tesat 2018-01-02 01:33:13 UTC #31

Looks great! Has an old cartoon villain vibe keep it up!

rgdraw 2018-01-02 14:56:58 UTC #32

Interesting work so far!
And cool to see you're still here this year

mdashow 2018-01-02 16:31:17 UTC #33

Looking good! Feels very Tron-like (not a bad thing at all! ) Nice simple shapes here make for a distinctive silhouette and visual theme. What if, instead of a sword, he had a mace with the same shapes from his shoulders echoed in the spikes on the mace? Just an idea...
anyhow, looking forward to seeing where you go with it. Good luck and have fun!

Mocart 2018-01-02 17:34:17 UTC #34

looks quite cool so far ! just noticed that the triangle at the chest is totally off the perspective.

malcom 2018-01-02 18:10:01 UTC #35

@tbrk thanks a lot. I was kinda going for that vibe. one of my main inspirations comes from darthvader.
@rgdraw Thank you. Good to see you again as well.
@mdashow Thanks for the feedback. A mace might be really cool. I'll try concepting some ideas. I think it can add a cool fantasy flavor to all the sci-fi-ness of the character.
@Mocart I see it now, I'll fix that. Thanks for the feedback.

malcom 2018-01-07 07:56:26 UTC #36

Been away for a little while on this. Added some weapons for this guy.
Feedback always welcome.

Illustration sketches coming later this week.

joycew-art 2018-01-07 12:39:39 UTC #37

Ohh I really like the colors you've given him, curious to see what the final illustration will be like

evehartman 2018-01-07 13:04:25 UTC #38

The contrasting colours of purple and orange are great! I do feel that the weapon is a bit "bulky", if that makes any sense. The design is great though

Tesat 2018-01-07 22:01:45 UTC #39

nice weapon

malcom 2018-01-07 22:59:50 UTC #40

@joycew-art I'm curious as well. I have a few ideas i'm going to try and post here as soon as I can so stay tune. Thanks for the feedback.
@evehartman Do you mean that the weapons are too big for his character? Anyway thanks for the feedback.
@tbrk Thanks. Glad you liked it.

Gotta thank @mdashow for the weapon suggestion. Seeing it with the character looks awesome.
