As Zwebbie said. Nicely mixed generic warlord style to actual evoker. Cheers
both- i agree on the shoulderpads and the legs. this is more of a quick thumb to get out the overall feel of him. there will be LOTS of revisions to come. but yeah, that will help for the next round of doodles
THANKS
Yeah, gavin this doesn't really strike me as "your" style quite yet. it's just not weird enough for you.
Push the fatness more. MAKE MORE SKETCHES DAMMIT!!
upload fool!
thoughts...ideas...crude uses of the word gay all accepted.
gay!!
on a more seriouser note
i love the idea man. Are they demons are norms still?
Just a question did you discard your trusty old sketch pad for a wacom tablet?
JK loving what you have so far can't wait to see more!
ok, here is my raptor guy around 12 doodles later. with these i started a couple versions before my last post, then just kept tweaking and evolving it. each time i try out a different idea on the same or last iteration of the creature. and it evolved from that...into this one
crits...comments... BRING IT. NO, SERIOUSLY, i want some ideas tossed around here.
JAH LOVE
here is another version of the invoker that is also playing around in my head. i havnt dropped the guy from the first post yet
im gonna take both of these ideas for a while before i pick one
Bonier back maybe? Extending down the tail?
This thing runs at high speed? Maybe a thicker tail at the end to help itself throw it's balance around.
Where are its sensory organs? how does it navigate?
no, im just going with the shape right now. the rendering is just noodling as i figure out what im going to do on the next iteration. next stage is going through each main part and figuring out all those happy little things you brought up.
here is a little glimpse of the process
GO TO BED ADAM!!
i like fat things.
The thing kind of reminds me of the way people use to think how the T-rex use to stand.

but that's just my first look and you might have posed them or want them that way. If so cool, and get a darned scanner!
gonna explore ALOT more. not really feeling any of these all the way yet
make it fatter
and less gay
THANKS FOR THE COMMENTS GUYS. HIIIII JEFF
played with the idea in my head a little more last night while sleeping. gonna drop it down to 2 of these little dudes, dont really want to deal with trying to cram 3 dudes in here. going to make them stalkers that use shadow magic to teleport around. so its like fighting 2 little nightcrawlers. this doesnt matter too much to you... the audience, but this way you can see my thought process a little better on the next batch of posts
THANKS GUYS
since i got that shadow thing in mind these guys should reflect that right?
thoughts...ideas....other concerns about daily living
thanks zcorpion, im digging the direction so far but not sure what im gonna do for armor and such. i might go with an aztech warrior them...we will see

the bugger can project it's jaw forward-- skip to about 20 seconds in for the good stuff:

wake- those things are wicked arent they. im not sure if im going to go that "wicked" with it. although that skin would be lots of fun
So that being said. I grabed ur recent painting and went to PS with it. I simply masked it out and started to push it around with liquify. I was just changing the major shapes and perportions to see what other vibes I could get off slightly tweaking 1 piece. I also stitched on a few of the heads you previously drew to tie in some of your earlier work.
I did this in hopes you would take the idea and it tons more of it yourself to explore more ideas in a quick and painless way. Rather than painting a whole piece to find out its not exactly what you were after, and starting anew. Hopefully this will keep you from noodling too much on stuff that simply isnt important just yet like anatomy.
Another thing to roll around in your head while your doodling is..... The outfit, and accessories tell equaly as much about the character as the figure itself. Try not to just focus on the figure and play dress up later. You will probly find yourself just beating an idea into submission to make it work but it wont be as great as you really wanted it to be. each step of the way can be broken down into shapes and pushed around quickly to try different things before rendering out lighting, shading ect ect ect.
Your doin great man! cant wait to kick tons of ideas around next weekend in dallas with ya.
Heres my ghetto photochop =D
btw....did that dude just rip on me and I not even say anything??
stimy- i like the feel of the middle one a lot, im starting to lean back toward more upright though. i think the big back like that would play well into the shell like surface on parts i was talking about.
here are some doodles ive done this morning
aight, im going for a bike ride
and the details on his back could be for a good opportunity for some badass detail.
so my votes on the first one.
ok, here is a new shot, ran with the guy on the right of the last post for a bit. im liking the tribal and the frilly thing a lot. i just need to kick up the gnar
