Description "Ambush? What ambush?"

Apparently goblins aren't too good at setting up surprise attacks. Something must have tipped the gnoll to their position. Any ideas as to what it could have been?

Watercolour, ink, casein on Twinrocker 200 lb. CP watercolour paper.

And is quite a dramatic change indeed
Even I notice a small change in my dinosouric backside. Even if it sometimes looks like I'm going backwards instead of forward..

Taclobanon In reply to ??? [2009-05-06 13:14:34 +0000 UTC]

Looks cool. I really like the composition. The texture used is effective in giving solidity to the figures, and the the color values really give the illustration that sense of depth.

I like it. I think it would really be enhanced it there was a bright spot of light for contrast, like the sun peeping through the clouds, a torch, or a magical light particularly near the knoll.

NP. I may not be great at doing dynamic scenes myself but I've read enough theory (and comic books) to see opportunities.

umbrafox In reply to ??? [2009-05-06 11:54:55 +0000 UTC]

Great job man!
I like how the earthy realistic colors contrast with the highly stylized depictions of the characters.

My only things are that the back arm of the gnoll seems a little awkward somehow, and that the foreground goblin on the left doesn't have a focal point for his eye. i.e I would think he'd be looking at the gnoll. But those are really minor nitpicks. This is really great

Oh, and if I was the gnoll, the big skull pinned to the tree with a spear might've made me just a bit suspicious lol

GH-MoNGo In reply to umbrafox [2009-05-06 13:46:35 +0000 UTC]

Yeah I see what you mean about the arm. The eye of the goblin was another sticky point; I tried pointing it towards the gnoll but it just didn't work.

Yeah I think it would make anyone suspicious!

HoundGrey In reply to ??? [2009-05-06 11:35:05 +0000 UTC]

I'd say it was the blanket hanging from the tree branch, but that's just me, very awesome work there! the expressions and the colors make this one really work!
