Description suddenly I can color in digital after using SAI. GET IT NAO. it's amazing.

yeah it's a minotaur as you can find in the greek mythology. If you want to figure out more about this, go to wikipedia: [link] I always tried to draw one that looked like from the video game Vagrant Story but that thing is maybe two times taller than a human... lol So I just stuck with a "traditional" minotaur.

I didn't intended to be too detailed on this one and decided to keep a rather sketchy look. that picture looks kinda like a mess anyway lol
It was quite fun to experiment around with the layers, like I used erase tool on the reflection/lighing on the armor, that makes the layer behind show through (hard to explain by words but you really should try it out yourself)

That drawing took me maybe up to 5 hours or something without the post correcting and stuff. I just started with sketching and it came out so well (better than I expected anyway). I'm so happy ;-; lol


PLZ DO NOT STEAL. MINE. D:<

Damn, that looks nice! It does look rather rough and sketchy though. Nice design, good proportions and figure. The pose seems familiar though, I can't place it but there is something about it. Is it me or does he not have a claw on his pinky finger?

SolidSake In reply to Scuter [2009-12-22 14:48:00 +0000 UTC]

thank you! glad you like it.

Well, when I did that drawing the pose seemed similar to me too lol I can't really say where I got it from though...

the small claw is supposed to be hidden behind the finger... maybe it's not as clear lol it's rather badly displayed

thanks for the comment and sorry for the late reply! lol at the moment I'm trying to catch up with the comments and such

You're welcome.

Maybe one day it'll come to you, until then it's a mystery.

I see, well, this is a very rough sketch.

I'm not surprised, we all have things to do, especially around this time of year.

Scuter In reply to SolidSake [2009-12-29 00:37:12 +0000 UTC]

You may be right, there are tons of sword in hand poses for posters and things of the sort in Lord of the Rings ads.

Very cool!
Sketchy look looks nice and I loooove the way you have colored those metallic parts! Looks very shiny and realistic.

Facial expression is also cool, he looks very determined!

thanks for the comment! and I'm really sorry for the late reply and all, I'm crowded with messages and deviations x.x I shall have a look at your gallery soon tho, ok?

Agaave In reply to SolidSake [2010-01-01 13:15:35 +0000 UTC]

No problem!

Take your time, my deviations are not going to anywhere from my gallery. Unless I start to dislike them and delete them... but that's not probably going to happen any time soon.

hehe danke nochmal. Ich versuch's halt so hinzukriegen, dass es halbwegs gut aussieht, und dass Metall spiegelt finde ich auch ein wenig spΓ€ter heraus. >D
