Description

This character is based on an old concept I did in 2017. I wanted to paint it, but at the time I couldnt paint that well and the concept was one of the first things I drew on my drawing tablet (Also just drew over a reference I found, but nevermind).


A little bit more about the character:


The character is suited for an postapocalyptic world like Metro 2033 (Nuclear wasteland, survivors living in russian underground subway tunnels called Metro).
He is a lone wanderer and collects every kind of junk he calls 'medicine'. In every pocket in his coat he tries to stuff this things that he wants to sell. Just interested in the money he 'helps' people with his unprofessional doctor skills seeming like he didnt even was a doctor before the bombs fell. His dark and dirty coat has stains of blood on it, which may be the reasons why he always wears an odly shaped mask. Many say that he brings more death than the most illnesses together and the most try to avoid him, but people with 'medical equipment' are rare and some dont have another option left...

The funny thing there is a Metro 2033 book written by an Italian writer called "Roots of Heaven", which does have a somewhat similar type character in it.

Because of the theme of witch doctor, it reminds me of assassins creed. That's actually the first time I came across this topic. Cool work

I always liked the doctors in Assassins Creed.

Thank you for your feedback

This is a strong image -- nice! Was there any particular inspiration for going with this look?

Yeah, there was some kind of inspiration for this look.

In the concept I did in 2017 (you can see this in my gallery) I used a historical old image of an plague doc as a base.

I also tried to fit the character in the world of Β΄Metro 2033` giving him this very shady feeling most of the characters have.


Thank you so much for your nice feedback

Oh my, this looks so so good! You've improved a lot since when I first saw your art. I should probably get back into digital painting, haven't done any in months.

You should at least try, because you have
A lot of potential.
