Prehistoric Gnome

This is the entry for tomorrow's concept tuesday, the way back machine.

As you may know, there's a weekly challenge on the ArtOrder Blog in which me and Joyce have been participating recently, this time we decided to work together on one proposal.

We thought a of a prehistoric gnome who is beggining to understand the arcane forces and illusions through the observation of fire, manipulating it to compose simple shapes and objects. The gnome itself was blended with a porcupine for a more primitive look, the hair was really inspirational.

Prepare Yourself!

This illustration was done as a test for the Chilean TCG Mitos Leyendas (myths and legends), I wanted to work on a sexy woman, the game has a tendecy towards that kind of image.

I tried working with different colors this time, John Howe's book helped me a lot, it's always nice to look at some illustrations before doing any work, it's helped me a lot and I can look at things differently.

The drawing was made by my lovely partner Joyce, I specially liked the perspective on the sword, I think we make a great team.
