Description I was feeling nostalgic, so I did some World of Warcraft fanart.

Big thanks to Starlitdragon for injecting me with a good doses of inspiration, especially when I feel down.

<3 Barontieri & Linda Bergkvist, especially their brushes!

EPIC...love his eyes and the kickass designs of his blades and shoulder armor. I'd love to see a drow or hermoine try to captured this elf, mahahaha! >:3

My my, you have improved soo much. I love the layered background that gradiates from dark to light. A rogue with a scar I feel bad that I sort of know what equipment that rogue is wearing from Karazhan Raids.

the scar? shoulderpads. I imagine such work-hazards can't be avoided when big spiky shoulder things threaten to impale ones face at any moment. ^^

thank you for the compliment! I enjoy doing dark ambient pictures a lot

it will probably be the last time I ink something in manga studio, though. as much as I love the pen controls, the lineart tends to look too hard edged unless I begin at an extremely high resolution (and shrink it down). ah well.

I'm proud of you, keep it up ^^. Since I bought Mom's home a year ago it's been pretty busy as usual organizing my life (I've got so much room in the house now but it's still a mess since my habits are from living at a computer) and within a month I plan on producing some art...even it's scribbles..har. I picture clothing, texture, and form will be my focus.

I donated a little money to Drowtales and I know I haven't been around these few years because I had to get over some issues. I'm just glad from what I see, you've done what you've set out to do and I told Bast from Pirks-n-Quirks(no longer around) you're an important part of keeping Drowtales alive and kicking.

Take care

Thanks! I'm not very good at drawing weapons or armor at all; the 3d shapes are always difficult to picture in my head.

wait, I thought neither you or kern played any MMO's.....or are you just drawing despite not playing, I'M CONFUSED! (but anyway very nice pic)

chocolate-rebel In reply to Naur [2007-09-14 23:00:21 +0000 UTC]

We don't play any MMOs, that's correct.

In my case however, I was highly addicted to MMOs for many years until I stopped 2 years ago. World of Warcraft was one of the last, I think. I had a level 50-something human paladin, and 30ish level human rogue.

So yes, I'm drawing fanart despite not playing it. XD

Thanks a lot
If there was a moon that big, it'd probably crash into the planet-- BUT! this is fantasy, and physics is replaced with magic.
