Artist's Comments
My first submission of the year.
This is for *Tasastock's contest. This piece started out as a full figured piece, but due to the deadline of the contest and me being so bad at backgrounds, I turned it into a portrait. It is supposed to be a representation of a D&D character in my current D&D campaign. I will probably submit a few more of these character pieces in the upcoming year. I couldn't come up with a real background so just did the one you see in about 45 minutes today. This piece was done with Photoshop CS and a Wacom Graphire 4 tablet. All digitally painted, using [link] as a reference. (The reference pic is Mature Content, so be forewarned before clicking on that link.) By the lovely  . Reference for the hilt of the sword comes from a pic by  , who has lots of fantastic stock for D&D type characters.The pattern on the armor reference is from a pic by  .My many thanks to these stock artists who provide their talents for our use. They enable me to do what I do. As always advice, critique, suggestions, etc. are welcomed. Things I need to work on especially include lighting and using contrasting colors to add life to my paintings. Anyway, thanks for taking a look. |

I think the colours and the background work just fine. I think I would crop it slightly tighter though. The space at the top is possibly too big.

Gotta crush on a pretty pistol,
Should I tell her that I feel this way?
You are right about the cropping. As soon as I uploaded it and viewed it I realized I'd forgotten to crop it before uploading it. I've gone in and cropped it some now. Thanks for pointing that out.

I have several stock artists that I've been meaning to get around to drawing as well. Sometimes contests motivate me to get a pic finished.
