Description (c) 2009 Nick Egberts

Yet another entry for the oft mentioned artorder blog: [link] The assignment was to create 3 armour variants of one character. I went with a ragged adventurer that I posted before (so i cheated a bit scince your not supposed to use old stuff), the other variants are the same character gear for battle and one for war. Really liked this character and I delighted in revisiting him.

Nice variations. I like that you made subtle changes to the surroundings in each one as well.

I like it a lot. It shows a lot of control to draw the character so exactly each time. I really like the variations. The battle and the adventure are a little close to each other, but the war is more nicely obvious. I also enjoy the subtile differences in the backgrounds.

Long time no see! Glad you apreciate it, it didnt fare to well in the compo i made it for, so i needed some apreciation. I guess you're right about changes not being big enough.

cheers,

Nick

Great concepts. These have a very traditional feel to them, in regards to the media. I think maybe the watercolor has influenced that a bit. I really like the idea of combining traditional and digital. It's difficult for me to combine the two, so I really respect and admire your style.

Thanks kim,

I always seemed to really digg the idea to combine the two. Atm moment i am reconsidering my aproach. The result of this aproach is that i end up with lots of half/semi finished watercolors/paintings. For some reason that bothers me greatly. I heard Ralph Horsely say on the NM podcast, that he always tries to finish a painting, even if he knows hes gonna paint over things digitally. Food for thought...

Cheers for the compliment. Means a lot,

Nick

Great concept and coloring. I like the different types of armor for different situations.
