Joukehainen Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Nice job on the hair colour. The jaw and chin are a bit too big IMHO. Or perhaps the cheeks are too straight. The angle is gently bottom-up, the jaw-line is going to look more pronounced as a result. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High Octane 881 Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Man I keep coming back to this thread to find something i DON'T like about this piece of art. So far....no success. 1 Do not criticize a fish for being a turtle when it is, in fact, a fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenup Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 The angle is gently bottom-up, the jaw-line is going to look more pronounced as a result. It still seems off to me. The head just looks too big/heavy, compared to the body. I'm assuming it's the jaw's and cheeks' problem, at least from her left side. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that the proportions are a bit off, the body should probably be bigger in relation to the head or vice versa. But Staples has done a stunning job regardless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWestfall Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Very cool indeed. I'm more fond of the reddish tinted hair - it seems to fit with the fire-priest thing. I, too, get a Brienne vibe from her - which is a good thing, IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommonOddity Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I'd have to second kenup's assessment. The jaw and chin are slightly pronounced. Looks far more masculine than feminine. Face of a valkyrie, some bottles of testosterone later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lolaldanee Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 even better with the reddish hair i really like the aura of authority that she got too 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jezz555 Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 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. Compared to the concept art, this picture is a lot more "b**tch you don't wanna mess with"! Honestly, I prefer Cadegund looking a bit more feminine, but I guess we all interpret this stuff differently. Regardless, Staples' rendition is a sight to behold. au contraire, I think the original picture is much more masculine, and sort of tougher/more matronly looking. this one to me makes her look younger and more confident/brave as opposed to butch. but yeah as you said, different interpretations 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staples Posted November 14, 2012 Author Share Posted November 14, 2012 Thank you all for the critique and comments. Mr Sawyer even thinks its cool; that made my day. If I'm honest, I haven't drawn many females and I wanted to get out of my comfort zone. I wanted her to be tough but not totally masculine, but hey, this will help me in the long run.

Hormalakh Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Personally I like the fact that she's "masculine." It shows her being stronger than the regular female. Wearing a plate armor and being a general badass... 1 My blog is where I'm keeping a record of all of my suggestions and bug mentions. http://hormalakh.blogspot.com/ UPDATED 9/26/2014 My DXdiag: http://hormalakh.blogspot.com/2014/08/beta-begins-v257.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sacred_Path Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I found the original Cadegund more aesthatically pleasing, I think it's the face/ jaw here that makes her look masculine. But this here endows her with some personality, unlike the original pretty-girl-with-gun sketch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niarei Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 She looks perfect, imo. She has some character, she is not just another supermodel fantasy chick. 3 Pillars of Eternity Twin Elms and Celestial Sapling and Torment: Tides of Numenera Crystalline Dimension, Before the fall and Bloom original fan art music.

Hormalakh Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 (edited) She honestly looks more human than a lot of the other fan art sketches I've seen out there. "Fantasy chicks" that look like barbie dolls.... I never understood how that worked out. The Sagani concept sketch was the same way too. Very human, "flaws" and all.

Ieo Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Considering even the official Sagani art--the first IWD-style pic (moar plz), group dungeon action shot, the Polina concept--are all different, I think we can cut some slack between this fan art and the two official existing Cadegund pieces.
