of course rogues are smug in and of themselves, it all has to do with that stun, stabby, stabby, die thing I guess.

Dude this is really cool just it need a little bit more atmosphere, like a soft light gradient over the image, vinete effect, deep of field, bokeh light at that it. that is my only comment to get you artwork  to the next level. cheers keep the great work.

OMG I LOVE the composition of this piece! I also like the colour choice very much! The only thing that would bother me may be the slight inconsistency of the drawing. By that I mean that the characters drawn are very detailed but the background might be too simplistic to fit with the characters. I mean, that's just my opinion. I know well that adding too much details in the background is bad too, but I think in this case it may be a bit lacking. But please don't take my word for it, I'm far from being a great artist and I myself struggle with backgrounds anyway ^^' But just remember that this is a very amazing piece of art!

Haha alright alright. But you're right, the bg characters are a bit lacking compared to the rogue. I tend to be a bit lazy when it comes to backgrounds and I have to work on that

Hello, I'm here on behalf of ProjectComment .

As a former WoW player and Wacraft fan I like this piece a lot. Gnome rogues are the Alliance counterpart to Goblins so I can definitely see where you got this scene in mind You've done a good job on the gnome and the armor as well. WoW armors aren't the easiest to draw. So many details. I agree on a previous commenter about the throwing knives although the change doesn't need to be that major. I'm also seeing a bit of something on his right arm. Perhaps it needs to be a tad bigger or then more raised? Right now it kind of falls somewhere in between when it comes to perspective.

As for the pursuing mob I like the faded details. However I think the troll is a bit too small. Also the tauren might be better off with a 2 - handed mace. I know they traditionally held tree tunk - kind of weapons in WC3 but they were far larger and longer but I can see why you decided to go smaller as a big tree trunk would cover a lot of the details. A hard choice, definitely.

As for the color scheme I think it's very well put together. After all, Durotar is pretty much just red/brown. However maybe you could try upping the saturation at some points. Especially on the gnome since he is on the fore ground. Things tend to get cooler in color the further they are from us so maybe the BG could use some bluish gradient?

All in all this is a very good and very detailed piece. I often dream about drawing scenes from WoW but I honestly can't do anything like this for ages. So really, very well done! Looking at your gallery I see that you work very very hard and it truly shows. Keep up the good work!

Thank you for this constructive comment. It definitely gave me the opportunity to rethink few things. It is always good to have someone to look at a piece with a fresh pair of eyes. Thanks

You could also push the poses on the characters to exaggerate their motion The overall aesthetic of the image is great though

I got to say first off loving the design of this guy. Just stylistically and in concept. 

A gnome as a rouge makes perfect sense. Nice and small they get into those hard to reach places and loot folks blind. More than that it allows for a frankly devastating piece of facial hair which justs adds a certain cherry on top. 

Outfit wise I like how he looks like a badass. This here ain't no beginner this guy been around a while and he has got a sense of rakish style from his cap to his knuckle dusters.The use of black, red, silver and gold was a solid choice as they really blend well together and tell us all we need to know about him without even reading the title.

Critique wise you may want to watch your proportions as all his throwing knives look slightly too small for his big hands. I could be wrong on that but I feel the handles should be slightly bigger, though I love the little gold skulls on all of them.

I do like the background as well with the three unique pursuers chasing him. I do wonder what led to this moment but its great to see some individuality in the faceless pack. 

Overall its a solid piece with a few technical issues, lighting being one and the aforementioned proportions but a solid concept and great muttonchops.

Thank you very much for a constructive comment You're not the first to point out the size of the knives, so yup, it is something that'd have to change. And light? Well, I still need a lot of practice on that field, but I keep pushing it! Thanks again
