Tribal Archer

Tyler — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 23:58:01 +0000

In my abundant amount of spare time I’m designing a tribe. This archer concept was created with 5 broad ideas in mind:

Wooden Mask
Bone Weapons
Tattoo/Markings
Warm Climate Tribe
Animal Armor/Clothing

I tend to keep my lists short because then it has less boundaries and more room to grow. The list was made after a couple of body shape sketches and from then on I tried my best to make the archer fit the bill.

In the future I’ll be creating a few more character concepts of what some other classes and types might look like, so if you like this guy, stay tuned!

I’ve just recently started doing all of my sketches and cleanup in Sketchbook Pro 2010.

It’s AWESOME!

SBP is especially good for either a Tablet PC or a Cintiq, because it’s specifically designed for use without a keyboard. It also has a pretty impressive ellipse tool that allows you to make perfect circles and still retain line quality. It also doesn’t hurt that it’s got an all access, 15 day, non-consecutive Trial Version! This is a MUST have for 2D artists in the digital realm. Go now, gentle readers, and enjoy the wonderment of the only reasonably priced product autodesk has to offer.

I need to create more categories for this blog… I think I’m defeating the purpose of them by only having two. That said, I just got a pretty sweet fold up easel! Hopefully I’ll get into a traditional/tactile painting in the near future, and I’ll have something to put in a new category!

On a separate note, I’d like to direct all 7 of the people that visit this marvelous website to check out the very skilled Devin Taylor. His pencil work is phenomenal, and he firmly believes that he is Batman.
