Description
Personal commission I did for a friend of mine, we had been talking about me doing a couple of pieces for him from a while back and this is the first of two (possibly more) pieces for him
Β The premise was straightforward, he wanted a large monster facing off against a smaller humanoid, possibly a knight, so I ran with that idea. Β Tons of fun to work on, I learned a couple more small tricks here and there hehe.

The monster reminds me a bit of The Wailing Host from second Darksiders. Awesome work man.

I get the impression that this sword isn't big enough, more importantly why isn't he wielding it with one hand?Β
More importantly, why isn't he wielding a huge ***** sword in both hands?! XDΒ
Why stop there? Carry a bigger sword in his teeth. In fact, carry three swords in his teeth, hands are for bitches!Β

This picture gives me a lot of vibes.
One of these vibes is the feeling that the sword is way too big to be properly handed in just one hand.
I doubt it being practical even 2-handed.

Probably but that doesn't really matter

Just to let you know, if things follow a reasonable logic, it can support the immersion.
I do not talk 'bout realism, it just needs a logic.

1. The sword is glowing so there is magic affecting it.
2. How would you conceivably defeat a TITAN without a giant unrealistic sword?!
3. Magic generally trumps logic in EVERY FANTASY DESIGN EVER.
4. Our opinions differ.

"ITS MAGICCC!!1!" is the worst excuse ever.
Even magic can follow a logic in the universe it exists in.
Also, if your target is that huge, do not try to outsize it with your weapon.
It makes you carry more weight, it reduces your sight, a pistol-bullet ain't dangerous because of its size but of its speed.
I am not saying "GET A FUCKING GUN!" but i am thinking of light and agile weapons like normal swords or even daggers.
If you can barely lift your weapon, you will not be able to make enough kinetic force to make contact any harmful.
I too could wear a fucking hammer but i would just gently tickle a target with it instead of crushing it.
(Unless the target is so smol and fragile that just laying the hammer on it is deadly.)
Also shields are a problem.
If your target is able to vaporize an castle with a light-powered punch, do not even try to block it with a silly shield.
Try to dodge it instead.

Perhaps in color and motif? I haven't had a chance to play too much HLD, there are big things in the game though, yeah?

Can you please not advertise that on someones art? Not trying to be rude but, no one really like advertisements on art.

That is a truly formidable piece of art. The titan certainly looks massive both in height and bulk.

Thanks

No problem. And i dont blame the titan for being so grumpy.
Being woken up way earlier than you originally planned is never fun.
