Description
Yes yes, the deadline was 30 minutes ago so now it's finally safe to post.This was done for Blizzard's 2010 Christmas Card Contest, where the brief was to use their characters in a fairly festive situation. Now, its been almost 3 years since I touched Warcraft (fucking addictions...) but it's still very obvious they have one of, if not, the best art & design teams in the business at the moment, so any excuse to shamelessly steal some of their designs is well met. Not to mention the prize is one of a very tasty persuasion.
The borders I nabbed from an earlier christmas picture: [link]
Personally, there are a shit load of things I can see on it now I want to change:
There needs to be a greater variety of hues and values
A greater variety of edges; lost, soft, firm, hard, etc.
Compositionally I think it would have benefited from a greater sense of depth.
Lastly, I wish I'd have worked on a bigger canvas to allow greater detailing of the Horde kiddies.
Materials:
Wacom Intuos
Adobe PhotoShop CS5
Time:
Total = ~10 hours
