Warforged Necromancer (Finished!)

[DMAC]

Working on a commission of a Warforged necromancer and his clockwork toad familiar. Here are the pencils so far. I'm planning on adding more trinkets and there'll be some sort of magical effect around his outstretched hand in the color version:

Looks wonderful as always DMAC

I like the warforged toad (war-toad? forged-toad?)

The fingers look a bit too organic for my tastes, but the rest is great.

The drawing is excellent. Altohugh I don't think I fully appreciate how a Warforged could be a necromancer. But the drawing is damn nice

Toadforged.

And as usual, it looks amazing.

...I had a character in my game exactly like this. His toad wasn't clockwork, but other than that - identical.

Very nice piece. Can't wait to see the finished product.

Demiurge out.

 

[Angel Tarragon]

Very cool.

 

[Kryndal Levik]

Awesome as always.

Thanks guys.

Here's my second take on the pencils. I wasn't totally happy with the first version. Nothing crazy, but the pose has a little more energy to it. Some small details like the vertebrae aren't quite done but I'll fill them in when I finalize my lines.

The client asked for a couple of minor changes like making the skull on the staff human and tearing up the fringes of his robe a little more.

Pretty much finished with my pencil rendering. I drew the toad on his own so that I can position him however I want in Photoshop:
