Wrathful Deity - Uncharted Fan Art (Concept + Process)

Retcon

Super excited for Uncharted 4 so I do some fan art for it. Including my process as well. Let me know if you have any questions or critique! Higher rez on artstation:

Cool process.  Thanks for sharing.

Re: composition.  It's obviously favoring the cave mouth (that's my "first read"), but if meant for marketing for Uncharted...I'd prefer Drake closer to the foreground and larger.  Same pose, but more evident he's in the scene.  Right now, he's kinda disappearing in the middle ground if you didn't give the context for the piece. Also, he's pose could be interpreted as offering something to the cave head instead of holding a pistol.

Pretty good execution otherwise.

Ah yeah, I see what you mean. I guess I didn't want to detract too much from the face. Played with the idea of having Drake in the mouth, but it wasn't reading as well. As far as him offering something to the temple, that would be a cool story, hadn't thought of that. Tried to make him look cautious like he's approaching danger, maybe could be better communicated. Thanks!
