Description More GW-related work. Just toying around with a scene involving one of the Elder Dragons from GW2. The setting is at the Xaquang Skyway, high above the roofs and slums of Kaineng City.

GW = Guild Wars, an online MMORPG. And I appreciate the feedback.

It has a nice story and good gameplay,although alot of peopel were disappointed in the fact that Fable 2 lacked a final boss fight like Fable 1 did.

I didn't really have any particular one in mind. Just wanted to play with a design of what one might look like.

The style of the building reminds me of a futuristic shanty town, making me think this is set in a steampunk universe. In any case, it looks great.

Hey, I thought this looked like Xaquang Skyway! That place is a pain to get around for vanquishing and stuff X-x Absolutely awesome piece here ^^ I love the design for the Elder Dragon that you chose, too It really does fit in with the Asiatic setting.

Also, don't you just have to facepalm at the fact that the DD suggester completely missed that this is Guild Wars 2 and not Ancient Asia?

Changinghand In reply to Stormsworder [2010-07-22 21:05:50 +0000 UTC]

I guess they just didn't know what "GW" stands for. In any case, a big thanks to them for adding this.

I thought this looked a bit like Kaineng City. Looks like I was right.

Definitely can't wait for GW2 to come out.

This is AMAZING! The texture of the roofs' material is just stunning. The colors, perspective and point of view really enhances the atmosphere of the image and really makes it more dynamic. I also love that you placed the tower with the lanterns in the center. That was probably the best detail for me ^^ Congrats on the well deserved DD!

It's very rare to see drawings of samurai using a kanabo, which was a weapon they used, so while it's not the main focus of the piece it still impresses me to see someone moving from what people who consider more traditional. Kudos and great job.
