Description Here is a colored rendition of a panel from the "The Return"comic I did last year. I liked the picture of Stabby in the lower left panel of that comic and always wanted to color it in. I recently had the chance to do it. I had some inspiration on some backlighting and rim lighting from fellow Deviant artist Ionen .
I have mixed feelings about the background. I think the blue highlights on the background look like worms! Oh well...

Pen and ink
Colored in PhotoShop 7

Hehe Tallum and its combat thong The blue glow is ok I would't worry about that but I think the armor could use some sharper lighting to have a more metallic look, now it looks like it was made of clay. Nevertheless I'm happy that Stabby's back

I always loved the armor in Lineage 2 for that... awesome protected chest/breast plate... and underwear!

I love the background, and i haven't consindered it as "warms". The color of the armor remindes me a lot the set Heavy Crusader (S grade). Also, the blades look more like Damaskus for me.

Yay for Stabby! I haven't been in L2 in a while. Although the Kamaels look nice. Although the one-winged angel, I keep on thinking of that FF-VII song. XD

Odd, they didn't look like samurai duals to me. At least from the shape of the blade and hilts.

I can't remember what my Bladedancer has. Gah.

No worries. I haven't played L2 since I tried it last year for the comic contest. Been having too much fun in WoW.
I think I had half-assed the swords in this pic when I drew the original comic page.

Excellent stuff! I had particularly loved that panel as well, actually. I'm absolutely loving the shading, gives off almost a brushed feel. And also, isn't Tallum heavy more dark green/black than brown? *stabbed*

Komikino In reply to biggestsonicfan [2008-09-25 06:25:42 +0000 UTC]

It's more blackish than brown... at least from the reference pics I have. I colored an earlier version in which I made it brown and just stayed with that.
