I love this piece. By he way, Storn, we're "E.N. Publishing," not EN World Publishing.
Oops. Nuthin' like getting your client's name wrong. So-sorry about that!!!
and I've even used En as a scrabble word...sheesh
Movin' along, nuthin' ta see here!!!
Well.. that ain't exactly true. There is hopefully plenty to see. Here is a commission of an electrical character for a superhero game for y'all to look at:
Move over Death Tribble... there is a new oddball requester on the loose!!!!
A local friend, for some reason I still don't know, wanted a picture of a Shark/Chicken/with one Dog leg.... and well... here you have the Sharkogken!!!
I'm not sure whether I want to laugh or flee in terror.
I say flee in terror. But I don't know whether I should flee in terror from the dreaded 'Lesser Dog-legged Charkin' (The Greater Dog-legged Charkin obviously having more than one dog-leg) or from whatever mind dreamed up this abomination.
Storn. . . your friend scares me.

Meh, to be fair, I tend to look whenever Storn posts something new. I just don't comment so much, because there's just so many synonyms for 'Awesome' before it gets tiresome.

A shark, that has eaten a dog that has eaten a chicken. Then you bake the whole thing and serve it with yams and marshmallows.
Is there any way in which you can explain how she came up with this concept, or is it just one of those 'you had to be there' kind of moments?

Oh. This one was so much fun to do. This was commissioned by a loving wife for her husband's xmas gift this year. Full oils. His very, very first character, who happens to be star wars. After getting the description, this image leapt to mind immediately, dunno why, sometimes that just happens. Sometimes I have to find the image while I work it out on paper/canvas.
I'm not using names here, because I don't like to without permission. I do know that they have perused this thread. Which is why I couldn't post this until AFTER xmas!!!

It's my very own Admiral Jorenh Zorak; indeed, my very first RPG character. Totally awesome. He's even got a vibro-rapier.
I love it!
Thanks, Storn! And thanks to Liz for arranging the whole thing in secret!

My pleasure. It was one of the most fun commissions I've done in quite some time!
My previous drow picture inspired two more. One is for a modern-mystical campaign. The other is more typical fantasy. Maybe y'all can tell which is which, cause I ain't tellin'. <g>
The next guy is my own character, who I used to play in Red Dragon Universe (aka RDU) game. This is Crusader, originally Intercept, who took over the mantle of the original Crusader (an NPC). In published Champions Universe canon, Crusader is the capt. America analog. Bit more to the character than that... My concept started as can I do a power armor character who is interesting to me... and can I make a cape work as part of that skill set. (The cape glides, with very quiet air compressed jets for a very stealthy power armor).
Death Tribble so kindly comissioned me to do this, of my own character, for both me... and Neil, the main GM of RDU.
I've been very busy with my personal life (not even in my hometown at the mo') and sicker than a dog with the flu. But I have managed to get some artwork done in sporadic spurts.
First up is a "were"-agent. For a friend of Death Tribble's.
And then a couple of superheroes.... one sorta Sandman like, one sorta like Silver Surfer in the notes from the patron.
If you have commissioned something from me, and haven't seen it yet. Please email me at Storn.Cook@gmail.com. I've had a computer problems, that have influenced my mail situation...requiring me to have tons and tons of emails to sift through. My schedule is clearing up in March, for those interested in commissions themselves.
Here are couple of more commissions. The first is based on someone real, Virginia Dare...although the campaign has supernatural powers and the like ala Solomon Kane... and speaking of which, not intentional, but the 2nd one reminds me a bit of Solomon Kane if the dude was 20s and well-adjusted.... which Howard's Kane is definitely not well-adjusted. <g>
Very nice indeed!!! You should really add some of these to your website!
Yes I should. I hate updating my website. I used to have help doing that.
This commission was really something of a fun challenge. Here is a Forgotten Realms character, a cleric of Olidammara. The god of rogues, scoundrels, the Laughing Rogue God etc. The trick here was to walk the line between some kind of clerical order, an affiliation. And to still make the young man kind of roguish.
The chain, the magic rapier were asked for. But the patron also asked for napoleonic styled cartridge case for a sling... and that I think was the key. I sorta went 1/3 Napoleonic uniform, 1/3 3 musketeer uniform, and 1/3 typical rogue in shirt, bandana, goatee and pose-attitude.
