Sketches



Hey guys, I recently got my first officially paid illustration job for Warlord CCG. These are two quick value sketches I did for the card I was assigned, no reference obviously, but yeah, just trying to see which one people like more. Thanks!

I'm not sure. I personally like the first study better, because the second feels a little too symmetrical. However, the position of the hand seems to be not interesting in the first, either. Hmmm. Overall it comes to simply just being a personal choice. The first-I believe, needs to be persued more.

i'd have to go with the second one. much stronger body language makes for the more dramatic card.

this is a TOUGH one but i think the backlit pose on the bottom makes it seem like he is a much more powerful character. it's very much in the pose and gesture, but also the notion that the driving storm behind him is only going to charge everything upwards. it's a little more terrifying (to be on the opposing side)

First off congrats! Second I'd go with the bottom one for its more epic pose and feel.

I prefer the backlighting and pose in the second one for sure. i'm a big sucker for high contrast light though. and nice going on the getting the job! definitely post pictures of the printed card when you get it.
