Thank you. You are right about the refection. I did a quick crappy version of it.

Damn I love the end result of this character design, how long did it roughly take you to finish it ? Are you gonna continue this series with a few more characters, teammates maybe ?

malcom 2018-10-03 19:54:50 UTC #386

@castonia It took me roughly 3 weeks spread over 7 weeks. Still some minor adjustments I need to make but it's finished.
I did have a plan on more characters. I was thinking this Wizard guy would have 4 guardians accompanying him. Just not sure of how I should approach the look of the others.
I'm thinking maybe the others are mages as well or summons for a hero character to battle against.

It sounds super exciting , I can't wait to see what you'll think of! Are you gonna keep the color palate and the style ?

malcom 2018-10-03 21:40:55 UTC #388

I will try to keep the same style. I'm not sure on colors at the moment. I'll work it out some how. I'll probably keep the dark purples/blues between all of them, but, having some other color to help each character stand out on their own.

Nice work these days man. I really like that chinese-style girl. keep it up!

malcom 2018-11-12 21:53:30 UTC #397

@sanguine thank you. Now I'm waiting on you to put out more art. Of course when you have the time. Or to see what you do for the upcoming ArtWar 3.

Anyway here's a sketch

I already love her! I really like her expression and pose. She actually seems alive, if that make sense. She looks pretty interesting design wise too.

malcom 2018-11-13 00:55:56 UTC #399

Glad to hear. I'm really bad at expressions so I'm trying to improve at them so I can breathe life into my characters more. So yeah I get what you mean about when you say "she seems alive" The default look is getting boring.

Damn, you're always working so hard and making lots of stuff! It's really admirable!

sanguine 2018-11-18 16:55:44 UTC #401

Love the face on this newest piece. And yeah, I've been focusing a lot on other disciplines, and most of my recent art has been pixel art for my own game dev stuff. I'm going to start my Art War III entry soon, maybe later today, so hopefully I can come up with some more personal art after/alongside it.

malcom 2018-11-19 19:28:15 UTC #402

@joycew-art thanks a lot bro. I'm going to try to find time for some art outside of artwar.
@sanguine Glad you like the face as well. Ima try to fit in some personal work while doing artwar as well, but, it might have to wait into after its all over.

castonia 2018-12-02 09:24:30 UTC #403

That last character is so cuuute, so much personality!
