        This came to me in that twilight phase right before you fall asleep but aren’t quite awake.  I’ve always had a fascination with wings, so why not make them out of coral?  Of course, they’re non-functioning in the sense of movement, but there’s just something…. ethereal about it?

          I like how you just keep shooting ideas out. I’m getting thrown off by all this holiday craziness too. I really like your coral wings idea. Are you going with a soft coral because what was going through my mind was that it would be hard for your creature to move through the water if the coral was hard. I don’t know, just a thought.

            Colored Humanoid 5.  Went a little heavy on the colors but this humanoid is going to be lazing around coral reefs, so why not make it colorful.

              The whole gang.  I thought the humanoids should have companions, and that would help influence their design.  Critiques are welcome.

              Top Left: Traveling over large stretches of foodless terrain, The Stalker silently hunts prey.  Next to it is The Stalker’s companion.  It hunts with The Stalker and can provide shelter in emergencies.

              Top Right: Beautiful black scales that refract the light into a shimmer of colors, The Temptress is not all she seems.  Next to it is The Temptress’s companion.  Its gold-like fins attract the attention of prey, which are then ambushed and eaten by The Temptress.  It can travel long distances to search for food.

              Bottom Left: A very small and fragile humanoid, The Concealed hides away in her Companion, caring for it as it cares for her.  Her Companion latches onto rocks or sturdy outcroppings and helps catch food for The Concealed.  The Concealed can also hide in it if needed.

              Center: Strong and lithe, The Fighter creates weapons from the molted bones of his Companion.  They battle others of their kind for riches and status.  The Fighter’s Companion molts its bony structures in rotation providing The Fighter with a supply of weapon shafts as well as fights alongside its Fighter.

              Bottom Right: The Environmentalist is a very slow moving humanoid that takes care of coral reefs.  Her companion helps her check the health of corals.  A helper fish for The Environmentalist, it is small and can get into places The Environmentalist can’t.  It has feelers to get into those really tight places and is extra flexible for those weird predicaments.

                Nice job! I really like the backstories you have for each of them. It’s cool that you made The Concealed’s companion look just like her. It looks like it acts as a camouflage if she needs to hide. 👍

                  Hey!  It’s been a while.  This past weekend I took part in the Global Game Jam, and here is some of the art from it.

                  You can check out the game here: https://globalgamejam.org/2018/games/news-splash

                    First sketches of my half-elf Hexblade for the Weekly CG Challenge.  This challenge’s them is wizard/witch or a magic user of some sort.  Hexblades are essentially warriors who use magic to enhance their combat.  This will most likely go through iterations, but I thought the challenge would be a good jump start needed for this project I forgot about.  Critiques are welcome.

                      Laying down some color.

                        I like this half-elf woman. The purpleish color scheme brings to mind a night elf from WoW, if you’ve ever played that. I’ll keep checking out your iterations as you post! If I had any suggestions it’d be to experiment with some more poses, or maybe curve her torso just slightly more upright to counter the extreme forward lean. Idk, maybe it’d make it a little more dynamic, add a little more rhythm to the figure? Not sure how much of a difference it’d make but you give me feedback so I figured I would try and return the favor!

                        Edit: also I kinda tilted my screen to line up more correctly with a ground line and wasn’t sure about my comment anymore lol

                          Hey!  I appreciate it!  And those are all valid points.  I kinda just grabbed a quick thing as the contest ends in roughly 3 days and 7 hours, which is what this is for.  But this in’t the final iteration.  I’m definitely not happy with it, but I’ll hammer it out each iteration, I’m sure.  I’ll be skating into the finish with this one lol.

                          And once I am able to scrape enough money together, I’ll take a look at that site you suggested!

                            Trying to stop thinking about the details so hard, but I get so excited…..

                              Well, missed the boat on the Weekly CG challenge, and then I hurt my drawing arm while exercising, looking for a job, so my personal projects got a little dusty.  Oh well.  At least I’m dusting them off now lol.

                              Never messed with a secondary light source, so this is fun to figure out.

                                It’s been a while, and that’s because life happened.  But now I’m back, and I have some more updates!

                                Hashing out this piece I’ve been working on for a while.  It’s my character for DND.

                                Kilyn Corvidae is a tall, blonde haired half-elf with purple eyes and mocha skin.  The daughter of a blacksmith, she never wanted to pursue the same trade as her human mother.  Her father is a well known dancer in the village and the surrounding lands.  Since her father travels often to perform, Kilyn dances while he is away to better connect with her father during the down times of helping her mother fix farming equipment and militia gear.

                                Visiting the local library run by her friend Roscoe, Kilyn asked if there were any books on different dance styles.  One style spoke to her dream of following her father, a style that blends swordplay, arcane arts, and graceful dancing: Bladesinger.  She devoted all available time learning the ways of the Bladesinger, scouring as many books as she could.  Despite doing the best she could, she could never quite reach the level of Bladesinger.

                                One day, there was a call to adventure in the town.  An adventure like this would be the perfect chance for Kilyn to bring her dancing to the people and be known just like her father.  Maybe she’ll find a Bladesinger to teach her what she was missing, too.  Before leaving on the adventure with her friends, her mother gifted Kilyn with an elegant longsword forged in her fires.  Her father gifted a beautiful set of blue and purple leathers fit for a dancer.  Donning her new equipment, she hugged her parents one last time before venturing forth.

                                Dropped in some eyes and finally got a hairstyle that works.  Faux hawk for the win!  Nose feels a bit rectangular.  Have to fix that.

                                I’m hoping to get this and a side view done for the August classes.  There’s a week in there, I think Week 3 where we can sculpt whatever we want, so I want to sculpt a bust.

                                  Added some details, thinking about Kilyn, her culture, and her personality more.  Time for a side view!
