Ive wanted to do a Lord of the Rings, meets Samurai, meets Final Fantasy style character for a while now. I have some free time so I said what the hell. VERY ROUGH work in progress (most of it will change as I go): Im doing something new with this one. I've roughed out the body with basic shapes and am now finalizing and…
Something I have been wondering about... I have always been told that "Everyone wants to be a character artist." and that it would be too difficult to get into that part of the industry without some serious skill because there is soooo much competition and so few jobs.

Not sure how that works since wouldn't the target be the pirate bay themselves? Anyway so i Google'd about the block and was baffled to see…
Hey all, I'll try and be brief (cos I have a habit of writing too much). I've been making a Tyranid Fleshborer (for those uninitiated in Warhammer 40K, it's the gun held by this guy: http://www.fightingtigersofveda.com/fbtermie.JPG). I wanted to make an unusual gun, so I went for this Tyranid one; the short explanation of…
