Description
2007- A player illustration for Achaea. This one depicting Aurn, of the Bard class and Horkaval race. After doing Aviolana, and really detesting having to "ruin" the image with the skin, I scanned it in before adding the texture and then again afterwards.
These illustrations are based from written descriptions and thus often contain odd components such as the bird on his shoulder or the graveyard setting.
Grass was a challenge here, and in retrospect I think I should have blurred it out some and put less emphasis on singular blades. Light reference used for clothing folds, my daughter modeled pants for me (I like that part the best of all) and I had looked at pictures of instruments, weapons and birds.

Excellent portrait! Love his expression. And it's really a shame to marr the beautiful face.

Very well done you have great skill , Im not sure if I like the cracked skin or not , Im glad you kept the original. I tryed to respond a second time on your last post but it wont let met post two comments on the same piece , that makes it kinda hard to carry on a conversation is there any kind of instant messaging here ? any way I guess I started drawing in grade school , little things I think the first was star wars ships then in JR high I played a roll playing game and started drawing monsters and characters from the game and that led to art classes and sculpting up through high school , I have to say my real improvment came after I graduated, from work I did at home. As far as how long Ive been drawing ,thats kinda hard to say a had a few years there when I drew nothing at all so best guess , Humm Im 38 now so id say a little over 20 years off and on . If you dont mind me asking were are you from?

my focus want so much on the grass though. so its good. you get decently smooth images and tones. Either the paper i use or something, it looks gritty on page so i have to soort of blend it. Making it blurry. Who knows. I'm just getting into this detail stuff, and from the looks of it... i got a ways to go yet. Haha. good job
