That's pretty cool, the picture kinda reminds me of one of the multiplayer maps in Halo (Valhalla, is it?).
In other news, I trundle onward in my efforts of world/game building. This is a war-mage, a type of warrior who uses his strength and magic to turn enemy strength on itself. Overall, I'm decently happy with it, but the hood/mask/magic look rather poor. I'm going to come back to those later.
Nice-looking mage! The whole tribal(?) mask theme is very interesting- is that a part of the backstory? A feral tribe, who made use of what they could to survive, and after discovering magic, used it like any other tool or weapon? In any case, the image is thought-evoking.
(But yeah. The magic could use some work.
)
Oh, and my picture's got nothing to do with Halo- not purposefully, anyway. I've never played the Halo game in question.
Dude, dude this is awesome. However, the thing on his back reminds quiver much more than a gun. However, it could be a quiver for a gun!
About fading, I think you should leave it all black, because it looks awesome like that.
I posted a sketch on a similar theme recently, though it is much worse than your work.
Heh, thanks. Is that a... Robotic/armoured WWI Wehrmacht soldier...? Because that's quite cool.
But, in terms of criticism, try not to spend too much effort on things drawn on paper with squares on it, it's not actually worth it
(Looking at it now, compared to those mountains, is it a giant steampunky mech? A steampunky mech filled with WWI german soldiers? Dayum. If that's the case, that flag is the most exhorbitantly overexpensive flag created since some dorf made a fractally engraved flagpole made of adamantite detailing the entire history and future of the world. In other words, that's a damn big flag.)
