Guild Wars 2

I wish I could just sit all day and work on them, they’d look a lot better :/ Thanks for the praise Thal!! I was in such a goofy mood when I did the last 2 on here…I almost wish Anet would make my beer promoting guy and have him hang around Hoelbrak selling “Raven’s Best”. I’d hit him up everyday!! lol

The spirits of the wild call upon him. But he rarely answers.
When he travels, waypoints pay him.
He once had a staring contest with the Eye of Zhaitan, and won.
Asura call him a genius.
He is…the most interesting norn in the world.
“…I don’t always drink beer…but when I do, I prefer Raven’s Best.”
Get that Thirst Slayer my friends!

The trouble stemmed from the conflict between my compulsion to avoid pain, and my compulsion to complete my insect slayer achievement. This won’t end well….

Well done. Well done I say!

Just a quickie character shot. Enjoy. Btw, the colorized norn pic is coming soon!! Thanks for all the up votes!!

And just for giggles, I did this on my tablet.

The sylvari have their ‘dream of dreams’ given to them from the Pale Tree…well, the norn have a dream of dreams too, given to them from…

Super quickie here, just had a thought I found amusing. Don’t judge me too harshly, I know its not one of my best.

“…Step right up and check out the latest golem model from my new ‘Prime’ line!!…”

“Gotta collect them ALL!”

Would anyone like to see another tale illustrated? Let us know in the comments section.

Hahaha awesome.

Today an asura head in custom head dress.

Very nice. Do you plan to color them?

In-game stuff. Just depends on what you’d like really. I’m always negotiable. Just mail me the details and some reference shots.

…and here is my attempt at Ms. Jory.

I was hesitant to do this one, as I doubt my ability to capture all the beauty that IS lady Kasmeer Meade. But, I gave it my best shot. Perhaps someone at Anet will invent a way for my character to marry her…..just putting it out there….

Didn’t have enough time to do as much as I’d have liked. I may revisit this one. After a nice week or so off, I’m ready for a couple new commissions. Room for 2 only, so first come first served. In the meantime, here is the beginning of “Elemental Attunement”. Enjoy.

My suggestion, find the artist who’s style appeals to you the most and just ask them.

Finally done with my projects, and no commissions to do at the moment, so, I took advantage of ny mini lull to do a quickie portrait for myself!! So, here is my warrior, just a head shot since it was still done during my lunch break. Should I put him in armor and paint him? Thanks for looking…enjoy!

Why not just call it a carcass of karka?

Antara.3189:

I think of “bushel”

Growing up on a bay, everything related to seafood (besides fish) was always in bushels. Bushel of Crab, Bushel of Oyster.

Karka probably have some good meat too.

Which bay was that? Representing the Chesapeake bay here!! Only the best karka carcass here!!

I don’t know yet, results to be posted in the chronicles of Tyria podcast next month.

Today we have another charr. Hope you like him.

If I can get enough ‘likes’ on this pic, I’ll scan it in and do a full color rendering.

edit here is my value rendering…just started the background, and of course I must still color it, but, its almost done!

edit Final rendering

It was confirmed by Colin, that the “Fall of Abbadon” would INDEED be pre GW1. That simple fact alone gets my vote.

Keep ’em coming!!

Hi all! something a bit more polished than usual today. Just finished this for a contest, and wanted to share it.
Title: “Memory of an Apple Vendor”

Too true. But…its the closest looking to a stormtrooper.

So far, I hadn’t done any attempts at Zojja, even though she’s one of my favorite NPCs. That being said, here is my first attempt at her. My piece is titled: “Krytan Covergirl, Zojja…easy, breezy, asura”

Lol maybe we could have your engi dressed up in SE gears get mistaken for another famous sith lord by him…

It’s also possible that Cobiah’s exploration was just a case of a kid being a kid. The continent could have been completely closed to foreigners, except for the docks for the purpose of loading/unloading goods, and, being a sneaky, thief skill having youth he simply slipped past the guards and explored what he could unbeknownst to anyone.

Hahaha, maybe Logan’s head?? Lol. Good to see ya back Rouven!

Right?! Like, right in front of a fireplace, maybe a smoking jacket, a glass of scotch and a leather armchair…(sigh)if only I had more than an hour. Maybe I’ll work this one up fully….hmmmm

Had some extra down time today, so, I present to you Charrlistair Cooke, celebrity host of Meatoberfest Theatre.

It’s a great step forward from the last video, which was also very entertaining. Look forward to seeing more.

here are a couple.

his videos are fun.

Thank you kind sir!!!! :-D

If you read the total of that_shaman’s post, you’ll also read about the upcoming kites. This is most likely a kite design, not a new champion.

Definitely a question better posted to the lore forums. But I believe, only 1 Sun and several moons. My only reference would be the legendary scepter. See pic below taken from the wiki.
Hope that helped.

Well, I love to draw, have a lot of free time at work, and there are still so many things I’d still like to draw! Haven’t even had too many chances to get any digital stuff done. Working on some bigger things but may be a bit before I can put any of it out. Thanks for continuing to check out my stuff!!

It’s a book reference. I won’t spoil it for you, but its in chapter 1…the reason that is.

Well besides the mechanical pencil at my job, I really like Manga Studio, and, of course, Photoshop.

Great to hear that, always mesmerizing, voice again! Still hope you get around to the bashing song. Til next time!!

Just edit your original post, select ‘more options’ then add your next screen.

Good morning! And thanks for giving me something to do, I hope this helps. I am including a step by step process of how I go about sketching an asura. I kept it very basic and left in my guide lines to show you what I did. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

I apologize for the roughness, but I just got up, and need coffee.

A great question, and one I’ve often wondered as well. It fit in GW1, as they were pretty much all there was, but now, seem seem much less “godly” and instead just more “powerful entity”.

It’s been awhile now since last I contributed anything but comments.
Today’s subject: Thief

I may as well put my info on here on the off-chance that someone actually WANTS something of mine, also to bump bump bump the thread!!

1. What type of work do you do? -Both, though I prefer to work in tandem (sketch/scan/polish)
2. What are your rates? -I’m negotiable, depends on the amount of work required
3. What are some links to your work? -See below….or search these forums.
4. What materials/input do you require? -Obviously screen shots, but listing things like favorite colors/activities/quirks etc can help make for a more personal piece.

I’ll come on and try and spare you the torrent heading your way. Search this forum and you will find close to a dozen posts like this. Please refer to the replies there as to why this just….isn’t the case.

Lately, there has been a growing number of posts concerning art commissions. I felt that with this, and the increasing amount of people looking for, or requesting commissions, the topic deserves it’s own thread.

If all those offering commissioned work could reply below with the following information, I believe it would make things easier for everyone. Also, by consolidating everyone into one thread, you won’t get lost in the pack or need to constantly “bump” your thread. Another thing, is that by simply editing your reply, you can show your status (i.e. currently accepting work or not)

Also, if potential clients could PM the perspective artist and please leave this thread for artists postings.

1. What type of work do you do? Digital? Traditional? Both?
2. What are your rates?
3. What are some links to your work?
4. What materials/input do you require?

Really hope this catches on! Thanks for looking.
