these are some consepts i did for a so far unnamed project that is in early development.

these are the Ivory Orcs. at least, these are my first impression of the word. kind of a druidic norman sociaty, a bit like the normans where like during the time of the roman emprire.

heres a scetch of somekind of warlord, with diffrent colors of beard to try out. nitice all the 'Ivory' decorations.

heres a scetch of an elder. he looks a bit like a druid at that time, doesnt he?

some scetch of a youngster, with more hair but no beard. also a lot less buff as the warlord.

and last but not least, a concept of a fel elf sorcerer, these dudes will be red skinned, and have dark clothing styles with lots of purple and gold, kind of undead clothing style really.

note, that these concepts where the first to come to mind when seing the name. now i kow the discription of the ivory orcs, i noticed some diffrences: they want them with white eyes, i made black, and they do want something around the age of the roman empire, but they want the to be moe like the actual romans themselves. wich, come to think of it, can be quite interesting.

Normans? Or Romans?

Hmmm... I would say that they look too peaceful for Romans. Romans were belligerent and overall not very nice... but they did have lots of sex.

The elder looks kind of like a troll... I don't know why... but he does.

Does anyone else think that the youngster looks like Orlando Bloom?

Humans and elves are evil... especially that guy... he looks like he likes to torture people.

I would say go for Gauls instead of Romans. Or go for the look that Hannibal's troops had. Rome works much better as an antagonist... they are the evil empire after all.

i dont have that much to say about the matter, and the folks will be quite original, so be the romans aggressive or not, the way i draw my ivory dudes will be peacefull...

and the ones drawn here are more nordic, i'm still working on roman bversions ^^'''

thise are concepts for a game egg is brewing, btw. its gonna be called 'the grove'^, i cant say more, becouse we are still discussing the rest of the features/races/thingies.

Great job on fel elf :D

Orcs aren't that great, but still good.

Good job, soldier.

well thse are all out of own intitiative... send egg some pm, he got some UBER artist to make his concept arts... and i can promise you this artist of his is a lot better then i am.

and the game is in very early concept stage-- we ar not even thinking about units or heros yet, we are tweaking the races and what theme and magics they will be using. once that is settled, we will start creating heros and units.

Does the mod still take place in Warcraft?

Ivory orcs say no, fel elves say yes.

no, it does not take place in warcraft...

other races are:
fel elves
ivory orcs
vampyres (spelled that way diliberatly)
and a mystiriouse, so far unnamed assasin race.

time for a little update...

this is a little dude, part of the assasin race. he is an alchemist, and always carries around a big keg with lots of toxens and poisons in it. as a stabbing weapon he uses a big needle, wich he can also fill with toxins, for a temporary deadlyer stab attack. he would be fast. the rag around his face is supposed to protect him from toxic fumes.

Hmmm... He reminds me of that pic you drew of Vig0r...

Nice... but this sounds weirder and weirder as I keep hearing more about it.

woot a post from DA and a massive amount of posts from Erwt.

I saw your sig icbm, and honestly, i fell prey to the same disease effecting all the other nonposters, School work. I just took my US History AP Exam last friday and had to read a 550 page book in one night while writing another paper on another subject. Next week i have exams, so i won't post a ton, though i will post more than i have the last 2 weeks.

The concepts look good, but with Ivory orcs, when i imagine them i almost imagine creatures with the features of reg. wc orcs, but caucasian. If you really want to differenciate between the two universes, that difference would be huge.
