    mjasnowski, Thanks man! good to see those are well visible

    cheo36, Thanks buddy! here it is!

    Noro, Thank dude! Yeah i fixed the chin, but didn't add more stuff on the blurred silhouette because that would take some focus from the character itself, wanted to keep it pretty simple

    Kherns, Hey thanks! Yeah it took me a bit to finish it because i needed to finish other jobs first, but here it is!



    And studies Lightning/mood studies (5-10 min each):



    So friends, I'm done with the recording process of this illustration, just need to put it all together and heres a question for you:

    -Would you prefer to see a video process with OR without voice over? I'll talking about whats going on and some tips about working for tcg/rpg dudes.

    Thanks for taking a look , Crits and Comments always appreciated!

      You did amazing job John! I really like how it turned out and those studies are great as well
      I Can't wait for the video, I think voice over would be greatly appreciated by many here but I don't mind if it's just a video, don't want you to waste so much of your free time, keep up the good work!

          Hey John,
          pretty awesome job, mate!!!!! Like it a lot!! Just some suggestion (if you don't mind)…
          I think the shadow areas could be a bit darker compared to the ones from Mr. Greenskin himself. Sure thing thing that the darker areas one the dude makes him more pop - but I think an overall darker shadow mood will make it more "matching". Well - hope you know what i mean
          Other than that - its a pretty AWESOME work.
          And I think the video would be nice with a voice over - some sexy whispery voice
          female voice prefer
          Cheers

            Great sketchbook man!

            I love the little orc!

            I do agree with malo, (not that i'm any good at this stuff though) but if the sky behind was darker it would create some great tenebrism in contrast with the bright green skin. maybe make him pop more. keep the fireballs though!

            just my 2c

                  whoa this looks really better, great update on the catapult.
                  If you don't mind John I have some questions, I'm not sure if you'll talk about these in your video so I ask here.
                  When you work for a company ( like AEG) do you send them psd file or just png/jpg?
                  In what resolution your illustration should be?
                  And last question, how much time you got to finish one illustration?
                  Sorry for bothering you and asking these stupid questions
