Hello, everyone. I've always been a fan of the warcraft lore and I consider the final boss of the last expansion to be one of the coolest villains ever(Mainly because of the arc that's been built up over several years and how much it has evolved which you rarely see in games). Here is a fan art piece of him I made. I hope you like it;
If you can't see the images then visit my artstation page, I've uploaded all the images there as well;

Edit: I can't believe I forgot this. I'd like to give a big thanks to my friend Hai(Haikai) for being a tremendous help throughout the making of this character(as usual). Thanks again, Hai! You're a master!
I added a couple of texture flats as well

nice presentation too! I'd love to see some textures
Seriously the best thing you've wver made@!
Grats man!!
Maybe you could have overlapped some of the armor parts (especially those Chains) but nonetheess, awesome work !
@Dustin and Strkl: I agree with you. The chains, along with the rest of the geometry, have unique UVs because I needed to color them differently(there is a gradient on the chains which might not be very visible but it's there). I would never had done it this way if it was to be put in a game however as it would probably not be very cost effective.
@shotgun: Thanks, man! Long time no talk. Hope you've been well!
@Jacque: Thanks a lot! Wow, I was actually just kinda happy with how this piece turned out but I guess it IS my best piece
@Kaarna: Thanks! It's actually hard to tell how long this took as I was working on two other characters at the same time. I started with this one around April or something... Not really sure I DID however take my time with this character though which is something that's pretty important for portfolio pieces
Here is another shot of the scene;
I'll see if I can put together some wireframes of the scene.
You've just shown that Warcraft can go way more realistic and still keep it's charm
Had a quick peak at your portfolio as well. Great stuff man, I'll be keeping an eye out for your next pieces.
One thing though, he could use a Beer Stein :icon60:
Really next level work for you. Awesome to see this type of jump in quality.
Great detail, balance of forms, silhouette, lighting, just awesome all around!
Fucking aced.
Now do a Sha version? ;D
Also might be time to update your Avatar with a Garrosh, huh?
