Tyranx's New and Improved Sketchbook +3 vs Lazy --Updated 03/09/09

**Tyranx** · September 17th, 2006, 07:28 AM

Thought it would be a good time to start a new sketchbook. that old one was starting to stink.

Hey guys, here is my WIP for the Blizzard Art Contest. Just thought I'd post it up here and get yours guys' thoughts. (its an entry for the Diablo 2d Enviro)

And some steps...

I am still debating whether to have it blue or brownish grey.

I'll continue posting updates throughout the day.

Woooo. Looks damn promising! Cant wait to see an update

**j a k e** · September 17th, 2006, 07:31 AM

Coming along awesomly mate, really like the flying creatures around the castle. No crits from me yet, great work.Thanks for starting a new SB too

**asoir** · September 17th, 2006, 07:36 AM

I think the blue works better for me, keep it up

**Fozzybar** · September 17th, 2006, 07:39 AM

lame!

haha, you know that i love it

**rawwad** · September 17th, 2006, 07:58 AM

Hell good start! Looks really great, i love big scenes

**Diego** · September 17th, 2006, 12:06 PM

**Spats** · September 17th, 2006, 12:17 PM

I love it

No crits. Can't wait to see this finished!

Keep rockin'!

**skullsquid** · September 17th, 2006, 12:21 PM

Huzzah, recognized the place instantly, really nice mood tyranx. I'm sure you'll add some fire and brimstone to the atmosphere. First version is more appropriate to what the original palette in the game was.

Cheers.

**Tigermilk** · September 17th, 2006, 01:21 PM

great start on yer new SB.
have'nt really checked much of your stuff out before, but damn, this is singing sweet.
Keep at it!

**Tyranx** · September 17th, 2006, 04:54 PM

Thanks guys.

Another Update... I'm gonna go with the brownish gray, it fits better within the Diablo world I think.

**asoir** · September 17th, 2006, 05:00 PM

Diablo? I don't remember this place!
1 or 2?

**Tyranx** · September 17th, 2006, 05:07 PM

yeah, I made it up, but I still want it to feel like it belongs in the Diablo world.

**Tyranx** · September 17th, 2006, 09:33 PM

Another Update, its comin down the the wire!!! Eeeee!!

If you got any crits spit em out!

**andy5** · September 17th, 2006, 10:03 PM

These are good, hope to see the finished product. I'd love too see some fleshed out human characters from you in the future.

**j a k e** · September 17th, 2006, 10:31 PM

Lovely.

**koppa** · September 17th, 2006, 10:41 PM

**Tyranx** · September 18th, 2006, 01:55 AM

BAH!! I finished, but I can't upload it ;(

**j a k e** · September 18th, 2006, 02:05 AM

Really like the composition, and the white winged creatures emerging. Great final product. Nice and quick too heh.

**Mitchell** · September 18th, 2006, 02:07 AM

sweet. Great stuff tyranx! I have one crit though, for some reason the left side of the picture doesn't really seem to mix with the right side for some reason. I love the lighting on the right side, but it seems as if something is missing from the left side, I can't even really pin point it, but it just doesn't feel completely unified as a peice. Sorry if that didn't help much haha, but either way, it looks very good! I'm digging the composition.

**Tyranx** · September 18th, 2006, 03:15 AM

Jake - Thx
Skeiff - your right, I was in a rush and a cut some corners, I like my 2nd to last update the most, but it was a bit ambitious, given then amount of time I had left. ah well.

**Robert.B** · September 18th, 2006, 04:43 PM

damn these are intense!

**frostsnake** · September 18th, 2006, 05:19 PM

great job!, your second post looks also cool with the mountains in the background showing more, makes it more calm.

good start on your new sketchbook

**Tyranx** · September 20th, 2006, 02:49 AM
