DWIII - 2D - Tully - Nehushtan: Undead Summoner

Tully

Got a preliminary idea here. This isn't gonna be exactly where I go I don't think, but it's a sketchy jumping off point. Something dark with glowy bits looking dynamic and badass. This guy has a glowy necklace from which he draws his power-- though to be sure that isn't exactly obvious here. I think he's been corrupted by it over a long period of time (a la Gollum and his precious). I have a couple other ideas rolling around in the ol' cranium, so hopefully those will add to it too

Not doing 3D this year, I think -- I know I stand a much better chance of doing well in the 2D category (which I really want to do) and if I tried both I'd stretch myself way too thin.

You'll have a nice chance in the 2d category considering that you're one of the first to enter the 2d side it seems.

Wells

that is fucking awesome

indian_boy

@aesir: err.. no. shes the first on the 2d side that you've noticed lol

but yea.. er.. wait.. lemme figure out how to phrase this... er...

WOAHMOTHAFUCKINATHATSFUCKINCOCKSUCKINAWESOMESAUCEJUICENESSTOTHEMAX!

EarthQuake

Cant wait to see what you do here tully, we all know the *real* reason you and mop placed 3rd last round

WickedFingers

That's really nice. It looks like his limbs got blown apart by a warhead or something.

peppi

Awesome start Laurel, can't wait to see more!

Emil Mujanovic

This is going to be sweet, I'm loving the direction already.
Good luck.

struve

gorgeous, ummmm yes

stalsby

looks interesting! can't wait to see it in 3d flesh!

Slipstream

Portents of the awesome that's to come? I think so

tokidokizenzen

Wicked.

dur23

Tully is the win.

Joseph Silverman

Awesome stuff. Looking forward to updates.

Tully

Updates!

I've decided he is an ancient Lich, survived the apocalpyse by means of his magical doo-dad.

Just been doing a bit more development on the character -- before I was thinking it wasn't quite interesting enough to be able to be a serious contender, though it had some elements I liked. The images I've done since have just been trying to nail down more interesting, non-conventional proportions for him. It's getting closer, though not 100% there yet. I want to keep the light-emitting orifaces. He's got a blade that I'm thinking for the moment is some sort of sword or slim axe (or...sword axe--maybe :O)

Irreal

These are really great. In fact, so great, i'm actually quite depressed now.

Rens

i second that ...

JFletcher

loving every bit of this so far, looks so freakin' evil

Waz

Nice work Tully, great incorporation of the team colors.

vahl

nice, I like the more unique proportions of the more recent drawings

Valandar

*sits in stunned admiration*


...wow...




...just wow...


Of the various art pieces in your second post, I like the third guy the best - the tall, lanky nonhuman with the spear thingy impaled through his torso.

r4ptur3

now imagine if these were going to 3d ><

seriously, awesome work!

Xaltar

Damn you vader, now I wish we were alowed to model other peoples concepts

Nice stuff Tully, looking forward to more

wizo

An anorexic demon with green glow is definitely the kind of creature that gets my blood pumping. Bloody awesome.

Arix

Very illustrative. This should prove to be a really dynamic and atmospheric 2D piece. Keep defining some of his details, the silhouettes are really strong so keep goin! Awesome job.

super_villain

Like the overall look and proportions. Really like the closeup of the head in the bottom picture.

struve

Still like the red guy the best. The helmet in the last sketch is cool too.

katzeimsack

sketch 3 looks great, eventhough it looks like a protos

Mongrelman

Gah, at least do some bad ones to make the decision easier.

Though I love them all, the flamey mouth man is still my favourite, though may work well with the spear from 3.

Tully

Thanks guys Another!


Katzeimsack: Ehhh, kiiiinda. In his general porportions you're right that appears to not be a million miles off, but with what I've got in mind I doubt anybody will draw too strong a reference from it in the end. If I even end up going in this direction for sure -- still not totally certain.

He's still gonna be able to spew magical firey stuff from his mouth, since I quite liked that. He's just not doing it in those particular drawings.

stalsby

Nice updates! Looking sick!

gavku

That second piece is really ace. Has a very sinister feel.
