Is a forced shaving considered a rape in dwarven societies?

Well, no. It's called "Beard Murder" and one of the most vile offenses known to dwarven law, only second to disobeying a production order.

I thought shunning a Beard was the second vile offense?

[RedWarrior0]

No, that's third.

It's been too long since I've posted something here!



This is a more sinister elven warrior - his armour is supposed to look as though it were designed in the style of elvish garb but manufactured by humans.

I'm using a different colouring style for this as well: less pillowy gradients and more stark shadows.

[Meanmelter]

How long it take you to do that?

[Fault]

about 20 minutes for sketch and linework, 45 minutes for adding colour.

why do you ask?

A rather dark coloring style. Nice.

Something about him reminded me of Virel from Gurren Lagann.

whoa, yeah  . He was based on him, actually. He was even going to have sharp, filed teeth if I drew him with his mouth open.

I was kinda going for a medium between my style and the colouring of "sin city", I.E. all colours are desaturated and darkened, except for red, which is made very vivid.

The contrast in the color change actually makes him look less detailed by far, methinks. It has an aire of "MS Paint was used in making this". Which isn't a horrible crime against the universe if that's what you like, but I think it makes it more cartoony looking in a way that is slightly detrimental.

[Fault]

hmm. Perhaps I should add another layer of shading (use shadow, midtone, highlight instead of just shadow/highlight)

[Duke 2.0]

 Another shadow layer would be helpful. Just to grant some sense of volume that the desaturation sucked out.

[Sensei]

That wouldn't hurt. The metal mostly looks fine- it's most egregious on large, curved things- like the shading on his exposed body and chest-bands. The loincloth thing also seems off.

After reading this fantastic tale, i was inspired to do some painting.

wrong:P sin city is pure black and pure white, with the ocasional colour. sometimes miller uses red, but i've seen yellow and blue also. blood is usually white.
