A nice drawing for use with an awesome skin.

that looks more like a Hylden from the "Legacy of Kain Defiance" game

Thank you. The creature concept is not my idea, it is TDR's. I just made the icon for it to fulfil a hive member's request, and then decided that I liked the skin so much that I'd put a bit of effort in to create an icon with a little more character ( ie. I think it is based on the unbroken model so considering the face has no animation I thought I'd open the mouth ;P )

You can search the skin forum for TDR's Ice Demon if you'd like to compare it's likeness and/or use them in conjunction... I didn't link the skin directly because it's up to TDR's discretion to whether he wants his work associated with this or not.

Perfect, just for my needs. I'm using the skin of this icon in the campaign I'm making. +rep

You should put a direct link to the skin, it's a very good skin.

If you made this all freehand, not by schreenshoting, then I give this 5/5, looks excellent

+rep (will give +rep when I find out is this a freehand or just screenshot ^^)

 

[Discipline]

well no it's not exactly freehand... I used a screenshot as a base for proportions and then did a painted layer over the top. I don't think screenshots of models look good as icons, they need to be hand drawn to fit in with the rest of warcrafts icons. At the same time tho I wanted to keep it looking as much like the model as I can, and it's much faster and more accurate to work off a good reference layer. If you check out the skin you'll see it's more then just a CnP

Very very nice! I love it. Did you use a tablet?

(woot 200th post)

 

[Discipline]

No, just your standard 3 button microsoft mouse lol.

I keep my left hand hovering over ctrl+z (undo) the whole time when I draw anything, because it's hard to get the perfect line when you draw with such a crappy mouse. I just persevere through it tho, and with enough quick strokes and ctrl+z's I get it looking how I want

 

[Big Dub]

lol, same with my icons. A whole lotta oops. Gj with this one.

 

[shamanyouranus]

Looks like a naga

WIN!

Lol, nice job. Could you make an icon for my Root Elemental? ^.^

 

[Jack_Sparrow93]

Good job! Looks great! Even more great if all was freehand
