Dweomervore
Forgotten realms; Waterdeep - internal illustration. Acrylic, approx 6" x 7" Original artwork for sale; UK£150. Working on Dungeons and Dragons you are often asked to interpret and create images for new creatures. Although you are given a brief there is often a lot of freedom allowed for your own interpretation. This is one dragon-like critter I was particularly happy with. He might appear cute, but he's pretty vicious! The D&D internal illustrations are usually presented in a 'vignette' style. This means that the image doesn't go all the way up to the edge of the frame, or box, that most images go into. This image is an example of a vignette. Whilst this vignette isn't especially elaborate it does allow for the silhouette of the figure to stand out strongly. However it can also mean that there is little context or setting for a creature. This is why I added the helmet. Not only does it add more visual interest but also provides some scale. Asssuming the wearer was human this makes the Dweomervore quite a small beastie, but perhaps vicious enough that the helmet is from one of it's victims.... |

P.S- All your past pieces had so much detail but for some reason your grand attention to detail really struck me with this one...individual pebbels(which i can imagaine would have been tedious to color) and even the single bolt that is falling out of its hole. bravo!
