The project I have been working on for so long is finally "submit-worthy", which I started about a month before last years christmas.
It was drawn digitally from scratch, using no references than my imagination on Photshop 7.0 on my laptop, done in my freetime and late evenings when I was actually supposed to do my homework :D I haven't really got to finish it detailwise to perfection, since my laptop couldn't handle the big size I worked this baby on, 2678x3627... it really crippled my laptop. Adding the last details was too long loading process to do under one evening.
However, my laptop screen differed from an usual monitor, so I delayed it for a long time before getting the colours right. (Sorry about that)

For people who have the same laptop as I, Dell Latitude 100L, you can go here for better colours: [not submitted yet]

The long project was fun and learning. But it eventually ended up eating up my tablet pen, so I probably have to buy a new one in the near future. I like critique, so go ahead and make use of your heads if you are commenting!

Not enough detail...?! QUI3T, F001! :P I think the detail is great, and I'd only suggest improvements on the posture - the legs don't quite seem right to me, the whole pose could be a bit more expressive, I feel. It looks ok, it just doesn't fully make me think..."MINOTAUR! FETCH ME MY SWORD, BOY! ... boy...?"

The posture is rather off, I know. It's just that I made a outline digitally starting with his head (bad idea) and then worked my way down, colouring it in a cel-shaded manner, then added fur just too kill some time. That's when I couldn't really change it without a whole load of work. Right now I think he is scouting, for when the outline was done, I intended to make him more of a ceremonial guard. Not a kickass über killer like we all like to see them. (Therefor your "...boy...?" statement, I guess.)

But I'll take the posé into consideration next time, thanks :D

Holy mother of wow!

This is.. damn. Major improvement from the last pic I saw from you. I'm glad you've got the hang of using Photoshop. *hugs*

Hehe...:giggle:...
Took me a while to get it done, so I had lots of time honing my PS skills and get it done :P Thanks!

grymt snyggt!! du måste suttit riktigt länge och jobbat med färgningen..använder du ritbord eller? gillar starkt yxan och du har fått fram helt rätt färger och textur på klövarna. hela bilden får mej att tänka på WoW.

go here: [link] and enjoy :D

Jo tack! Det tog en jäkla lång tid att göra, bilden var som sagt...uh, tja, det står på beskrivningen hur stor den var i pixlar. Det mesta gjordes med 1pixel stor pensel med typ, 10 färgtoningar av typ sex olika färger på ett ritbord...:faint: Pennan är allvarligt nött nu då den jag fick i födelsedagspresent var ganska kass. Och tack för att du gillade yxan, jag hade ett sjujäkla sjå ett tag att göra en som passade :D

Åh jo, jag började faktiskt med projektet med en recension av ett tidigt Beta WoW när jag började den kvällen. Dock fanns det inga bilder på taurens, bara vilka raser och typ en Night Elf som recesenten använde. Fast själva temat på bakgrunden tog jag från WoW...*Host*.
På tal om WoW, spelar du själv? Jag har haft den där 10 dagars grejen av en kompis (dock trodde jag att man kunde fortsätta spela på den sen, men nej.), så sen på fredag ska jag in och köpa.

Wow...like in W.O.W...hehe. It turned out great! Men Markus, du ljuger ju...du använde din stationära!!! Shame on you!
:icontriggerman:
Eh, eller inte! Jag gjorde bilden på lappen, och sen så fixade jag färgerna (bara inställningar) på station. Mµli!

Thanks for the comment :D
