Bjulvar's Sketchbook

Thanks man I appreciate it! :D

Yeaah totally in love with it! The OST does an awesome job of portraying the atmosphere of the game. Have you checked out the design works book? They have an awesome philosophy of having a NPC's armor set as the main characteristic, instead of having a unique face with common looking armor.

Haha that's the point I guess! Something stupid/serious is always funny :D

So since the Khans of Tarkir expansion for MGT was announced I'm very tempted to do a portfolio/fanart piece more geared towards it. I have been wanting to do a MGT-inspired piece for a while now (Spellsword Barbarian was a test if I could do something cool with the card dimensions)
Starting with studies on mongolian armors and applying them directly with different designs. Big thanks to Forrest Imel for his video about studying habits. Needed to hear that.

Morning gestures, soon moving on to more Hampton



Virtual plein air, though I didn't use google maps for it. Just and old mobile phone picture I wanted to paint. Still not used to clouds, sooo more of those!
