Description So I stuck to the palette, almost. What can I say, I'm not very good at following rules.
I'm sure you all recognize the reference. This was hard, horrible colors and I think I did it the wrong way but still.
I uploaded the big one so you can zoom in and see the flaws.

Oooh I hadn't seen this one before! Very nice. I love fanart that is mixed with abstract style.

Aaw, thanks! I'm not a neat artist. I detest drawing more that the (for me) necessary details. I like the motion in this one.

wrong colors???? the first thing that catch my attention was the use of the colours really neat combination and the deep expression in his face really suits all the atmosplere of the colors i think

olivegbg In reply to Fayerin [2014-07-05 12:46:22 +0000 UTC]

Heh, not the wrong colors, but I approached the problem in a wrong way. I took the palette and tried to squeeze it to match my way of drawing, which obviously won't work since I work with opposites. I should have made a lineart. Still I'm quite happy with him.

what you meant by saying " with opposites" ? awww i never made color Β palets in my paintings i'm a litle lazy i awalys start with some color i like an dpainting and play LOL i should organize more my paletes too i guess the color paletes that i feel more need are for types of skin tones i saw a good one before there » fayerin.deviantart.com/art/rad…

No no, it's like this (according to colorism) every light has a shadow that is the exact opposite. Imagine winter and snow (since snow is white and cause no interference) The sun is low, what is the color of the shades? -Blue! not grey or black -blue. It's the same with a face, only more difficult.Β

awwww i never though that way really interisting for snow i would make blue or violet shading if in sun set

olivegbg In reply to Fayerin [2014-07-05 20:05:39 +0000 UTC]

Snow is just a good example because it's white. If the surface has another color you must take that into consideration.Β

Ooh, I think the red gives it an intensity deserving of him. As always, his eyes are superb! But I love it all. The magical glow in his hand is really neat. Β Love it!

The screenshot was very green so I decided to go opposite. I like Dorian already but I am concerned about his magic. From the shots it seems to be the erratic ones and the way I play I desperately need a good (great) healer...

awesome work!
i think the palette is offering colors that YOU can mix and edit the way you want as long as you stick to using them only!
anyway this is a great great WORK!
love it

Β I noticed that most images made for these challenges were lineart using the selected colors. I thought initially that I would do something similar but I was not ready for that

Gosh! I hope this means that you like Dorian. I hope this means you are attracted to him. I hope this means you are absolutely, totally, fully obsessed and in love with him.

That all you can think about is painting him.

That would be a dream come true! <3

Awww. To be totally honest I wanted to do a character I had not painted yet and the screenshots of Dorian was much better than those of Blackwall. But when I was painting him I read up a bit and a snarky Mage is just my type so who knows. He was easy to paint as well and had a good interesting nose so yes I think there will be more!

I kind of guessed (hoped) the Blackwall character would tickle your fancy (because he looks gorgeous!). But so delighted to see you tried your hand at Dorian. I'm fine with any tiny thing from you. I just had a fan flail moment. Back to lurking. ^^

I'm not saying I will totally forgive Bioware for killing of Duncan&Riordan after three cutscenes but making Blackwell romanceable would temper some of my wrath. And I'm growing quite fond of this Dorian fellow as well. Please keep fan-flailing, in fact I encourage it! Kramar!

Well I needed Google translate for that since the only word I know in Polish is 'tak' which means thank you in Swedish so it was pretty hilarious when I shared desk with four Polish programmers and could not help thinking they were very polite. Great guys, we still keep in touch from time to time.
