Darkfall conceptual painting

I started this piece quite a while ago at work. It’s simply a conceptual 2D painting that was made for no other purpose to experiment and for use in misc. relation from PR to decoration etc. The picture shows 3 of the totally 6 races of Darkfall, the MMORPG-game I am working on fulltime. The girl is an elf, the guy in the middle is a human, and the short dude is obviously a dwarf. Some of the elements are based on 3D objects made by other members of Aventurine S.A.

All elements are copyrighted Aventurine S.A. and can not be used in any other purpose.

Painted using Photoshop CS2 with a Wacom Intuos tablet, and some elements based on 3D renders of actual in game objects/environments.

This painting was more or less a test, so I decided to keep it simple. I like simple composition anyway.
I don’t have a story behind this piece, other than it has got a more modern fantasy theme than normal from me. Perhaps this shows a cheerleader doing her side-job?

The descent

I wanted to make a painting that would fit my other painting named “the ascend”, but make it with a slightly darker expression. Still wanted to keep the same calmness and feeling. Painted during 2-3 evenings using Photoshop with a tablet.

I like dragons, so sometimes the urge to draw one comes uppon me. At first, I wanted the girl and the dragon to do a graceful dance of some kind, but since thats quite tricky to nail I went for a simplified approach. I guess he is a some kind of silver dragon?

Reference for the girl.

The ascend

The ascend

This is a really old piece, but it was an important painting for me as it kind of kickstarted me into making more digital art. I started off making some clouds one evening. The next evening I made agirl. I had no things planned out for this at all, and simply combined the two of them just to try, and added some sparkly stars. Painted during 2 evenings using Photoshop with a tablet.
