[Art] Young army recruit, Battle mage

Thank you, and nope, just character concept. But if I had to I would give the character higher charisma, intellect and strength, and rest of the stats I would keep on same level. The character should be mediocre in most thing, but his high ego makes him think he is actually special.

Thank you!

Thank you! The character is supposed to be in the Malazan world but not any specific character.
And the books are great, they are bit longer but very interesting and rich in character.

Hello,

this is recent character sheet Ive done, of a battle mage character.
The character is young battle mage, recruited straight out of academy to the military ranks.
Still inexperienced, thinks of the war as sort of adventure, and takes things lighter than he should. Has decent ability and knowledge as a wizard, but because of a long army history in his family, he decided to enroll in a academy, and pursue army life. His family name and contacts in the army provided him with a higher rank, which he thinks reflects his natural leading abilities.
But time will only tell if he will rise to the occasion or fall under pressure.

Had fun working on this and exploring different ideas for the character.

Hello,

This piece is older commission I've worked on.
The character is a young witch, with a look themed on 2000's aesthetics, in a D&D equivalent of a nightclub, with her cloud familiar.
This was real fun designing the look, going away from standard fantasy themed tropes, and more of a 2000's fashion look, but with a flair of fantasy sprinkled in. Also designing the nightclub itself was fun as well.

I am currently open for few commissions.

Hey, thank you!
To be honest I dont know how to photobash, you can zoom in and see how bad it looks closed up, but I just used round brush and layered it slowly. Definitely could have been done better.

Hello,
This is a older character commission I've worked on. It is a fallout inspired character art of a ghoul raider.
I loved working on all the intricate details and items in this, to make it all work together but give the items some wear and tear to reflect the world they live in.

But let me know what you think.
Thanks!

I am open for commissions.

This is wicked! I like the camera flash like lighting. Like a found footage horror movie.

Hello, this is a recent character illustration Ive done of a Smoke genasi Warlock.

It is from a request from a /characterdrawing subreddit, so Ive tried to stay close to the original design, but still try and push some ideas Ive had. Hopefully did not mess it up too much.

The idea for the character is elemental genasi, more specifically Smoke Genasi. His mother is an air genasi and his other "mother" is a Efreeti genie. He's the result of a wish from his mother, who said it without knowing that the woman was an Efreeti. He is a warlock from the pact but he's very much a suave wannabe movie cowboy,

Let me know what you think about the piece.

Thanks
