Sargon of Akkad - Online Persona

Share

Another character design/reimagining of an online personality. This time, of Youtuber Sargon of Akkad... fuckin' bastard had half the work done, just by using a bronze bust of a Sumerian king as his persona.

This piece in particular, however, was done as a way for me to try out to do video art for one of the man's new platforms; and I probably wouldn't have done this at all, if a colleague of mine hadn't incentivized me to participate, by taking a paper sketch I had done last week and use it as a basis for this illustration.

And after two previous pieces I've done, this illustration has also confirmed to me a method to balance linework with painting, instead of hard shading, so that's a plus. Now I just need to learn how to do decent lineart. xD
