Artist's Comments

This is my first completed marker illustration. I used several Tria markers, each a shade of gray. The blue was added in post with a soft light layer in photoshop just to make the image a bit clearer. Im sure there are plenty of perspective problems with this one. Thats what i get for drawing while sleep deprived. The sword is imbued with magic runes to compound its abilities. His armor is made from dark dragon scales, which are difficult to pierce and even more difficult to collect. The dragon skulls are trophies of sorts. He harbors skulls of small demons imbued with dark magic. I suppose he uses them as vessels through which to channel some form necromantic incantation, etc. Yeah that sounds like it makes sense.

Very nice work.

To slash at Phoenix is to slash at flames; an act of futility.

Very good desing and coloring. I'm always impressed with markers work. :)
I don't find any real trouble with perspective, perhaps there's something a litlle strange about his left arm, but that's all.
Blue eyes could have made him even more terrific.

Woah, shit. When did you pull that off?!? You did that pretty fast - last I saw it was a doodly little sketch. Excellent, sweet muffin. Excellent. :heart:

And as for your description, you sound like a fat pimply little nerd who needs his inhaler after getting too excited about his new special magic card. Fucking geek. ;)

The essence of the vessel is the void therein.

Holy shitballs, thats awesome. Killer design, very origional. Very cool how you manage to get different tones and shades with the gray. That second bit of blue light looks outta place though.

Groovy :eyes:

You have awesome command over markers in color, shading and texture.

Perspective problems? Nah, I don't really see any; anatomy is dynamic in that sense, as it's not a stiff architectural pillar or some such. I think the only thing is the left arm could bend or break at the elbow a bit more. But honestly, the blue tone breaks up the image nicely, and actually takes the eye away from anything going on perspective wise with that arm. And... I like how you are starting to craft more stories around your illustrations.
