Mystic Warlords of Ka'a Art

Since I haven't posted in a while, here's a whole bunch of work I did for The Big Bang Theory: Mystic Warlords of Ka'a
Not crazy about it, it's old and there was only around a day to do each piece so it was rushed. But it was a great learning experience and I like to show work even when it's not my strongest, that way I get to show my artistic journey. Anyways enjoy!

Here's another illustration I did for Mystic Warlords of Ka'a https://www.facebook.com/mysticwarlords?sk=wall

Definitely not crazy about this pic Oh man I wish I could show you some of the freelance I've been doing lately but of course with NDA's it'll be awhile. But alas you get to see how I improved over time and you get to take part in my artistic journey

Ok so right off the back I wanna say I hate these pictures. But as promised I'll show you the work I did even if I didn't like it. These pictures suck on a number of levels but we're all growing as artists so it's just another stop along the way to improvement. Anyways, created for Mystic Warlords of Ka'a [link]

Camouflage Cloak

Here's another illustration I did for Mystic Warlords of Ka'a Link. You know as I look back on them I always think, man this sucks! But it's a learning process. I do wish though that I would have had more than a day to work on this piece. Oh well! Enjoy!

The Beauty and His Beast

It's finally finished!!!!!

So for those of you that like to keep up on this sort of stuff I finally finished my "A Taste of Things to Come" picture!This is without a doubt the most intense piece of art, digital or traditional, that I've ever done in my life!

This was a great learning exercise and I have to thank the amazing Derek Herring


for pushing me to go beyond my typical paintings and really render this thing out as tight as I possibly could!

Sadly this piece took forever to complete, mainly because of school work (oh Maya and 3ds max, you do take up so much of my time don't you, oh and then there was the TMNT vs Zombies storyboard). Nevertheless I finally finished it after a month and 50 hours to work!

One of the main problems I had for completing this was that I redid the dragon's head 3 times! yet it was good and it worked out to the best of my abilities in the end.

As far as the picture goes, I had this idea that this warrior night elf was rescuing her imprisoned dragon. I envisioned the dragon as being a lich dragon and having a rock like quality to his scales, not the typical lizard scales you normally see. I wanted it to be very large textured protrusions so I hope I nailed it

I'm still nowhere near where I want to be but I feel like this is the first piece that I've attempted where I've gotten close. There's a lot more to do but I'll get there eventually!

Hope you enjoy!
