Ah thanks a bunch Tygerson, really happy that you like it! I was aiming for that with the arm, glad you noticed. Could be cool if I took it a step further and twisted it more.

Thank you man, fixed it now! Going into a barbarian frenzy, so everything will have a beard from now on. (maybe!)

So I got myself an intership at a bookstore which is the reason to why I have posted slowly. Some stuff to fix. Stressed out over it so I had a sweet 3 day migraine!
Didn't want to miss the Swamp elder challenge but I didn't have time to finish it. Twas cool to try and work on two pieces for two weeks. Learned some things about distributing time, and failing at it! :P

Here's a dudebarbarian guy with scary spells



A thingbarbarian with a fiery soul



A icebreakerbarbarian with icy touches



A normalbarbarian with plastic muscles



Study of a face for the spellsword, couldn't get the colors right in the piece. Too much cold and desaturated colors.



Here's where I'm at with the Swamp Elder piece, not sure if I want to continue or not. Tried a different approach to sketching it up. Went with full silhouettes and no lineart. I've tried it before, but it's sort of a gamble it seems. Didn't capture much of an atmosphere.



With the spellsword I went with lineart, but the problem here is still getting rid of the lines. But for me it works so much more fluid with the planning and the idea. There's not as much roadblocks. Except for finding good references to study!
Way more happy with this and will find time to finish it.
