Description My final image of my Necro series of portraits!

I don't know how long this one's taken me? Maybe four hours total?

I'm quite happy with the details but feel I could have gone for another dynamic pose.

StugMeister In reply to DNecro [2009-10-07 18:22:37 +0000 UTC]

I don't play Necro anymore, but when it first came out I played Delaque. Then I went onto Escher and then Squats (A citadel journal gang)

How's about you?!

Elsepth [2009-07-08 13:12:21 +0000 UTC]

This... it's somewhat familiar. I can't shake the feeling that I've seen this or something very like tis before. Strange.

The right leg(left, from a viewer's perspective) seems a bit off. The spikes also seem a little unwieldy - useful, maybe, but I can easily see them getting in the way.
The equipment is great too, though personally I would carry a few more grenades... eheh.

Keep up the excellence.

Cheers Elsepth!

I suppose the punk/goth girl with boots and a gun is quite a generic image?

Yeah, the boot spikes are just an image thing - most of the stuff in GW's 40K artwork is totally impractical!

Looks good. I think you did a great job on it, it's done well. One criticism is the face, it's odd looking, and appears very flat, especially compared to the rest of the painting.

Pretty impressive depiction on gang of the House Escher, which is a group of gangs in the Hive Primus of the Hive World Necromunda. The house is controlled by its female members since the male Eschers are considered inferior specimens due to a genetic deviation. As such, all of the members of House Escher are female, but this should not lead to underestimating them since they are fast, agile and deadly fighters. Female refugees from the spire of the Hive such as "Mad" Donna Ulanti and Yolanda Catallus who become bounty hunters and occasionally partners to Kal Jerico are often associated with House Escher.

The borders of House Escher meet the ganglands of House Goliath who are seen as as brainless by the members of Escher, due to their frequent display of their muscles. They are often called "Meatnecks". When a group of women lost a fight against Goliath, they formed a community deep in the underhive of Necromunda.
Their relations with House Orlock is traditionally good as they treat their wives well and relationships continue to improve as the present leader of House Orlock is married to a woman from the Ulanti family from the spire.

sorry man, it's seams that I'm just critisize you
it's almost true
I really love you technique and vehicles art but human body is you Achilesse feet

Her pose is awkward but the main problem is her face
May be it's just a quick sketch but eyes, nose and lips aren't ok

sorry, just want you be better

Don't worry about it sir - I always welcome crit as long as it's constructive.

I did have real jip with the face - I don't do female art all that often. I think I spent so long trying to make her look non-masculine in her facial features that in the end she's ended up looking a bit odd...
