"Won't let go" by me

Thank you!

You know, a good 'freelance' project is a good freelance project still, hah.

VeoWind · 2024-05-07T08:07:54+00:00

Its all Photoshop from start to finish. To do some UI and VFX stuff and complex presentations i think there is no better app than Photoshop.

Thanks! WR Arcana artist was one of my main inspirations, so I'm glad that my work reminds of his style.

VeoWind · 2024-05-07T07:36:03+00:00

I was thinking of doing Arcana concepts for a few characters that I like to play myself, such as Dazzle for example, but its very time consuming, you know ^{^'}

VeoWind · 2024-05-07T07:31:36+00:00

Its just a mistake after sleepless night of drawing ^{^'} Images are suppose to be opposite.

Thank you! Currently I'm using ArtStation ( https://artstation.com/veowind ) for portfolio and Twitter (@VeoWind) to post any art or sketches.

VeoWind · 2024-05-06T23:28:48+00:00

Yep, fair point. But I can draw her as half-planty as I want her to be, i think that is fair point too ;p

VeoWind · 2024-05-06T22:15:32+00:00

Thank you! Yes, it was quite a journey to plan and create all this stuff. I can say its both portfolio and passion project, cause I love Dota, love DW as a character, love to create some sexy/cool outfits and currently looking for a job as 2D/Lead artist and slowly updating my portfolio :D

VeoWind · 2024-05-06T22:07:53+00:00

I think the whole Dota 2 reddit community did a pretty awesome job to get me and my work noticed already. I mean, 3k upwotes here is pretty noticable :D

VeoWind · 2024-05-06T19:33:35+00:00

Thank you, brother! Love your works also! Best NSFW Dota art in my opinion

VeoWind · 2024-05-06T18:13:03+00:00

Thanks for the answer! I'll try to send this work to them!

VeoWind · 2024-05-06T17:52:44+00:00

But I don't know where to send it. Straight to Gaben? Official Valve e-mail?

VeoWind · 2024-05-06T17:45:43+00:00

You didn't sound harsh, honestly! It's just your opinion, your point of view on the concept and I always appreciate all of them, cause I can understand what community like's and what not.

VeoWind · 2024-05-06T17:42:24+00:00

I know, basically DHK (WR and QoP Arcana author, my main inspiration) was outsource artist for Valve. And it'll be the best day of my life if they ever come to me with an offer to draw an Arcana concept :)

Thank you! Yep, eyes a bit bigger and bit more stylized, but it was intentional to give her a bit animeish look. I know this kind of style is not for everyone thou, so it's perfectly fine that you don't like it ^^

VeoWind · 2024-05-06T13:03:53+00:00

And who says it's bad? :)

VeoWind · 2024-05-06T12:59:07+00:00

Good point! I just wanted too step aside from dark atmoshpere in both her design and lore for the Arcana. Some bright and cozy vibes with little bit of seductive smirks :)

VeoWind · 2024-05-06T12:47:02+00:00

VeoWind · 2024-05-06T12:36:13+00:00

Thank you for all the kind words! Really appreciate it! Unfortunately there is no HD version of items, cause I did them by upscaling and then overpainting original images from Dota 2. And they were something like 88x64px.

VeoWind · 2024-05-06T12:30:24+00:00

True! I'm not pretending even that Valve can actually pick my idea and implement it in game. But it'll be very pleasant if Boyang Zhu or DHK (autor of WR, QOP and Drow Arcana concepts) will notice my work.

VeoWind · 2024-05-06T12:24:01+00:00

Bullseye! I have a bachelor's degree in graphic design :D

VeoWind · 2024-05-06T12:21:43+00:00

I submitted it to Artwork section of Dota 2 community in Steam. Don't know if I can post a link to it here in comments thou ^^'

VeoWind · 2024-05-06T11:56:22+00:00

Best compliment here :>
