Description Been working on this icon to use as a cover for my WoW fanart gallery, and to use as my new DA icon.
It's obviously the previous one that I've been working over again, to make an improved version.

Because I feel like I still have a lot to learn about values, I started out making it in black and white, as you see here.
I tried to work on texture of curly hair- something I think is damn hard, but as it's part of Eliakim's appearance, there's no way around it: Edgy face and soft curls! 
Likewise I've often struggled with the Night Elf eyes, as they glow, and in lack of know-how I usually  ended up making two white, flat dots. It wasn't actually a look I liked, but had no idea of how to make them better. This is my new attempt!

Next step will be to add colors, and in the meanwhile I'd like to get all the constructive feedback I can get!

I thought you quite playing warcraft? Other then that I love the greyscale and his look is ever so charming and up to no good at the same time. Or I could be wrong. I like how the fangs show, as night elf models have that. The shading in his hair is something I can never get right so thumbs up for that.
