Dominance War IV - Kaeil

This is the starting sketches of my Abomination character for Dominance War.

I said it before, I still thing that it needs SOMETHING to make it more menacing, instead of being a simple creep.
Most of the entries I´ve seen rely on some kind of artifact for the character, which IMO brings a lot of charisma to the guy. No saying that you should do the same, but try to find something to make this more unique.

Yea I haven't really worked on personality yet, I was going for concepts for what I wanted the creature to look like because I normally struggle with this when I get half way done with the painting normally so this will be helpful material for when I start to evolve the character... Basically this is more or less a features sketch, the features I would like the creature to have. By the way I will start some concepts digitally today.

Ok, cool. I´ll wait for the digi then :)

Whew, I have not used my wacom tablet in a minute. It seemed like everything I tried to do on the tablet sucked sooo I need to warm up a bit and take it slow. Right now I am coming up with head concepts. I will upload them when I am finished.

New stuff, experimenting with positions

that head looks too big / like the WoW's pit lord...
Anyway, seems like you're doing well with your concepts, but it's too early to give any really constructive criticism.

New concept with arm variations

The chest area looks really boring, but it´s getting there. I like this concept more than the old one. I´m not sure about the colors, maybe when you get further with the drawings it´ll be easier to say. And try to do something with the mouth so it doesn´t look like a vagina.

Update, got a concept I am happy with and started coloring.

Looking good

thanks man

very nice man,, seems a little lifeless tho

update.. I wish I had more time, work has got me coming home late and spending time with my wife is cut down so I haven't had the time to work on this as much as I would like to.

Eww, pus bleeding from his palm?
