I really like the framing and all the details you put into the character's design great job
Clash of the minds
Share
At the molten fields of Vul'caan, the last remaining shaman of our ancient race is locked in a legendary battle of the mind against a futuristic mechanical.
This is my illustration for the AncientVsFuturistic challenge of the month by Jazza.
In this illustration I have gone way beyond my experience and almost everything was a challenge. Anatomie, expressions, rocks, lava, different light sources, metal, outfit design, cracks, background, clouds.
My idea was to make something other then a battle of strenght. To mock this epic battle theme a little, I decided to make an epic fight of the mind by means of chess.
I spend around 35-45 hours at this. That includes studying and trying different things. It was a love-hate relation and the relief to be finally done is high.
Djoresh responds:
I am glad you liked it. This is slowly becoming my style now, though I am not sure if I want it to be this way. I also viewed your entry for the challenge of the month, good luck in the competition!
This is a really creative take on the challenge.
I liked the overall tone of the picture and how you kept the background and the characters pieced together.
I hope you will become one of the finalists, you deserve it.
Djoresh responds:
Thank you very much for having a look at my drawing and write this kind review. It makes all those hours of trying and failing worth it.
