I grew up in Eugene, Oregon. There are a lot of old paladin-turned-shamans around who hit the winter magic a little too hard during the 60's and are perpetually stuck with there.

I like to hit as many targets as possible in a single pic. That way, even if the pic isn't very good I might just luck out by hitting upon a personal connection. For example, someone might say: "Hey, that looks cold, I can relate to being cold." or even "Hey, I'm a dwarven ex-paladin-turn-shaman who likes casting spells/cooking stew in the dead of winter! That really hits home with me."

The characterization of your little magic man is amazing (sorry about my term XD), you manage to convey so much and it makes this an amazing piece ^^.

The snowflakes and the details on the armor are my favorite parts.

Thanks... those are my favorite parts too... Plus perhaps how the colors turned out. I'm not as happy with his hands or the wand/stick/thingie.

Oh yes, I know what you mean about the colors. And I can see how you wouldn't be satisfied with the hands. I think they turned out well enough, but our standards for ourselves are usually very high.

This is a great picture!
I really love the dynamic feel of the character and contrast between the weather and the magic.
If you're ever in the mood to draw other people's characters...let me know. I have a sleuth of fantasy characters that I'd love to get drawn.

Thanks a lot... I appreciate the support.

I don't know that I'm reliable enough to be counted on to draw anything. Most of my stuff is done on a whim (when I'm bored). If you don't mind me taking a long time (or possibly never getting around to it) I'd love to hear your ideas. Send me a note with your ideas and if I get inspired I'll post my interpretation(s). (With full character credit to you of course.)

I will do that.
I have character sheets, So I'd probably just send you a few of the more interesting ones.
Just so, you're more compelled to doing it.

Really? He just looks cold. Like he's cooking soup.

He's an ex-paladin-turned-shaman who is cold and cooking soup too... magic soup.

Truly, you are totally right.

Magic soup is delicious.

All those magic rabbits popping out of magic hats have to go somewhere.
