Artist's Comments

Prints available on Zazzle from $10


Monster design is fun. =) I've been playing around with the idea of monsters with some form of disability. This one's blind, but can locate things when the lights from each of the eye symbols in the rock lock onto a target.

Lots of reference to Mayan and Incan art styles in this one.


Time: About 10 hours
Tools: Photoshop CS3 & Wacom Graphire Tablet

Critiques


:iconsub-z:
Epic i the first word that comes to mind when looking at this piece!! :D It had a real strong 'concept artwork' feel to it all and would not look out of place in a future game as a boss fight scene! The art direction is superb as the mayan/inca look is definitely evident everywhere; the monster, the warrior and even the environment. The moody yet bright lighting adds to the whole atmosphere of the scenario and the bright lights emitting from the eye symbols give the whole piece a mysterious feel to it!
Only minor niggle is the monster seems to be a little too static after having just lain a heavy blow to the ground in an attempt to hit the hero. Just some sort detail on his body showing effort/movement could have helped. Ah well, it doesn't matter much because this piece of work truly is amazing, farr better than anything i could ever do!

throughout life I realized many important things, but the most important is that maturity is learning to face your problems with a positive attitude and confidence in yourself.

Advanced critique!? Are you messing with me??

Lighting is good in terms of direction, good smoke effect on the debris, good earthy tones.

Though I am a little confused as to where the lasers are going on the far left. Are they pointing at the warrior?

Shadows on the far lower right are somewhat uneven with the golem, but it does fit the shadows of the scene more. There should be more overlap in that.

I like the smash point and the direction the debris is flying, though the debris itself looks too blended, it needs a bit more depth I think.

Well, I hope that's a good enough critique for you.
