Description Round Two of and I had to draw Artorius's profile, including expressions and information on his personality and physical details.

I hope this suffices.

Artorius Revana is my character.

The four temperaments at the top aren't emotions. They're supposed to be different personalities different people could have.

Wow he looks very strong! It makes sense for his occupation though. Nice job on his expressions too.

Well I think it my just be your style but he doesn’t look very realistic. It might be good to look at some references from real people and see if you can tone down some of the shapes of his muscles and make them look closer to real life.

That’s all I’ve really got though, and it might just be a style preference. So it’s up to you.

Ohh if he doesn't fight to the death, it's explainable why he looked to fierce in the Guess Who task but he isn't truly blood-thirsty. And now I see how he can be that determined fighter and also gentle and reserved. I see you named his emotions after the four temperaments theory - I found that a bit strange so now I'm curious, what kind of temper predominates?

MartmeisterPaladin In reply to HelevornArt [2018-09-25 17:35:05 +0000 UTC]

Usually phlegmatic, if I am honest.

Akaszik [2018-09-23 07:46:41 +0000 UTC]

Oh, a gentleman gladiator? To be honest I don't know what it mean. Please, tell me if he must kill others in an arena? - If so, he's scary killing-machine, and if no, then he would be an amidable sportsman.

Also, why is he two and almost half meters tall? Does he come of some other species? How tall are his arena oponents?

MartmeisterPaladin In reply to Akaszik [2018-09-23 11:42:38 +0000 UTC]

No no. The gladiatorial bouts are non-lethal. Expect lots and lots of bruises and wounds, though.
As for his height, he has gigantism and underwent extensive surgery and physical therapy to compensate.

A gladiator? That's so cool!!  Reserved and Gental, not things I would think a gladiator would be.

MartmeisterPaladin In reply to UnaOwens [2018-09-18 21:30:02 +0000 UTC]

He doesn't like scaring people outside of the Arena.

MegaMaeve [2018-09-17 15:12:48 +0000 UTC]

So he is a gladiator, right? I definitely would not want to face Artorius in battle; this guy is beyond massive. His expressions belie his gentle nature, but at the same time, he just doesn't stop being intimidating. How come he ended up as a gladiator, and is he much larger than an average person from your story? (And an odd question: are those muscles natural, or did your world develop techniques to enlarge him like that? Science-fiction opens a lot of possibilities after all.

MartmeisterPaladin In reply to MegaMaeve [2018-09-17 15:31:07 +0000 UTC]

He is, indeed! As to how he took it up, he was raised by a woman who owned and ran an Arena, where his parents had worked before they disappeared. As for his size, he actually has gigantism, and underwent extensive surgery and physical therapy as he grew up. The muscles... you could say they were a consequence of said therapy, in addition to his training.

MegaMaeve In reply to MartmeisterPaladin [2018-09-19 09:35:56 +0000 UTC]

That's pretty cool! It's interesting he was trained to fight ever since he was a kid - I suppose his physique really helps him during his battles (either for the sake of overpowering or intimidating his foes). Did he ever want to be anything else but a fighter, or did he never think about a life outside the Arena?

MartmeisterPaladin In reply to MegaMaeve [2018-09-19 11:03:16 +0000 UTC]

He is also remarkably agile as well for his size! As for life outside the Arena, it's doubtful he did. He was surrounded by Gladiators from his first months. By the time he could walk and talk, it was all he wanted to be.

Torag1000 [2018-09-17 08:29:32 +0000 UTC]

Was he always this big? I don't imagine this being his natural body, is it?

Hmm, do you want critiques? Just say no after I give my say on this and for the next set of artworks I won't critique.

The expressions are shown good. I understand each one of them. I like them. But some people might not understand what choleric, melancholic, phlegmatic, and sanguine is. I would put it in either artwork or in the description, giving an example of what they mean.

The artwork seems very... basic. Maybe it feels that way because I'm more so used to drawings that show lot of shadows and lights. Like I see some of them there, but not really enough of them. Unless you're not going for that kind of artstyle, just keep on going with this. Also, is the bigness of his body parts supposed to be exaggerated, like those guys in Warhammer 40K?

Overall, good job.

MartmeisterPaladin In reply to Torag1000 [2018-09-17 11:19:01 +0000 UTC]

In-universe, yes.
Fair enough. I just wanted to be clever about the expressions and yes, his musculature is meant to be exaggerated.

Yep! A second heart was surgically implanted into him to compensate.
