Kasager: Arco de Luz Photo-Paint September 2006
Decided to try a different painting technique, a bit more suggestive impressionist realism. It turned out okay I think :/ This piece is one that I plan to enter into Blizzard's WarCraft contest, but if you know about my Sorche novel (which this piece was originally intended for), then you're familiar with this character remake.
Kasager Vagont wielding his signature magical bow, the Arco de Luz (meaning Bow of Light) which was forged by his adopted father, Parcis. The Arco de Luz generates various elemental arrows (fire, water, earth, wind, light, and dark) and combined with Kasager's inborn speed, fires them in rapid succession. The bow can also morph into the Sword of Retribution, which carries the same elemental abilities.
Put in many evenings on this one and a lot of detail.
Pretty happy with most of this piece, but think I should address the right hand, lighting on his face, and perhaps balance out the composition with some more blue. What do you all think?
