Here's a digital painting of Cadegund I've been doing over the last few days. I've just been getting really excited for this game and I felt the urge to draw a character. I don't think I got everything accurate from the concept art.

 

I hope it's ok that I post this here, and I hope you all like it.

 

Love it! Forms are solid and it has a nice read overall. Strokes are nice and chunky too! I think I see some painter brushes in there, was it done with painter + photoshop? Congrats on a fantastic piece!

Hey thanks Prestidigitator! You are indeed correct, but mostly painter. I take it you draw too?

I was thinking "I hate fan art..." when I opened this thread, but damn, that is pretty good.

Staples kudos to you sir, it's great and at least ten times better than the concept art. I particularly like her facial expression and the cut lip. Having said that, in my mind's eye I envisaged her hair to be more flame-red / titian than 'flaxen' but then again that's the great thing about art, you end up making these decisions based on prompts and characters.

 

Watch out, though, that gently tapered breast plate will get the PC Taleban that camp on the fringes of this forum out in force as it in some way suggests the gender of the wearer

 

Minor criticism... that ammo pouch looks textureless and too boxy. It needs some love.

Awesome man.

Thanks a lot everyone.

 

Monte Carlo - Really good comments! Looking back at the pic I thin you may be right about the hair. You're totally right about the pouch. It was the last thing I did - no excuse though. Funny you should say that about the breastplate. I saw a version of the concept art here with the breast area very pronounced. The Obsidian guys didn't change it did they?

Awesome. Thank you.

Thanks a lot everyone.

They did, and all for the better.

Thanks a lot everyone.

Yeah I think they did. And amazing artwork bro like Rostere I was expecting Fan Art (in an excited way, I love Fan Art)

Oh, I thought the one I linked to was the new one. The one Osvir linked to is the one I prefer and that's what I was going for. Did I succeed? Here's a pic with the gun removed.

 

Nicely done sir!

Hey, early fanart that doesn't suck! Pretty damned good indeed. Do moar!

 

(damn, I so do wanna do some PE fanart, but somehow life decided I'll be painting for work all the time and won't have a free weekend till Christmas. So, do moar, you rock! :D )

 

edit: the Deviantart link in your sig does in fact go to your blog.

Oh damn, thanks Merlkir. I've changed it. I checked out your stuff too. Fantastic stuff. I'm going to have to pick your brain sometime about getting into the business.

I'll try to do more. What should I do next?

Brilliant work! Love the battle-wearied warrior priest shining through. Her face is exquisite.

It's gorgeous, holy molly

Thank you for the kind words guys

That is a great picture in it's own right, and as standards for fanart go, it's absolutely stunning!

 

Damn, it almost makes me want to get off my own lazy butt and draw something, even though for some reason I'm several years out of practice,

Wow. I mean, err.... wow. You did all that from a concept and the dungeon actiony group pic, huh?

 

Here's another bit of fan art from a little while ago, more on the humor side: http://forums.obsidi...c/60820-fanart/

 

Edit: Oh, yeah, and as MC commented, I'd expect red in the hair. Very nice as it is, though.

eeexcellent

I think this character is supposed to be blond, the red in the wallpaper is from her soul spell light.

Excellent work Staples! Love the art!

 

 

Though she kinda looks like a dwarf, or maybe it's just me.

I was thinking of the reddish highlights in her hair on the concept art...

very well done

I like your fan art a lot better than the concept sketch tbh, I wasn't really feeling her character at first, but I think your picture really helps me to imagine the characters personality. Good job dude.
