#2 Challenge: Gorion
Deadline: Friday, 23rd March
Post your piece in this topic!

Don't you think it's ridiculous that there is almost no fanart of Gorion, [CHARNAME]'s and Imoen's tragic but heroic father figure? This is something we must change! Gorion has no official portraits, so once again our challenge gives you a lot of freedom and room for imagination.

Just like last week, medium is free! We already saw pencil sketches and drawings, sprites and computer drawn and colored art. Fear not, potential participants - anything goes, as long as it's your own. This is not a contest, nobody wins and nobody loses, so you don't have to be ashamed of your supposed lousy drawing skills!

Last week we had well over a dozen participants - I'm hoping that Gorion will get atleast as many illustrations!

EDIT: Thank you everyone for participating! This challenge is now closed but comments are still welcome here.

Okay all - time to start submitting to the Gorion challenge! I'm really hoping to have some time to do a sketch of him this week - Gorion is one of my favourite characters!

Uh. Yeah. Like I said. MS Paint.

Here's an old one. Notice some similarities between BG and another popular series...?



That thing on Gorion's face is a beard. A... very dense beard.

[berelinde]

Um.... right. Is that the time?

Ahahahahaha. Awesome.

With Charname as Luke. Hmm. Wait. Ooh. Intriguing. Yes. That's just so interesting.

[vilkacis]

No. I mean, yes? Uh. Maybe? Wait, I'm confused now.

Ahahahahaha. Awesome.

Thanks.

Something like that.


(Wait, should I mark this post for spoilers?)

I think most know by know both links.

[SConrad]

This one just cracks me up.

[berelinde]

OK, that one's genius.

[IronOx]

I always thought of Gorion to be that old happy-go-lucky-because-Im-powerful kind of wizard. So here's a pretty sprite. Btw, the above two comics are too funny XD

[Rabain]

This is my first test using my very first drawing tablet (arrived today)...witness the awesome art skillz:

Hi all,

Well here comes my view on Gorion, it is tiresome to paint with the mouse. I dream for a day when I can afford a tablet wacom. But the beauty in drawing is that no expensive tools is a must to create a image. It should be enough with just a simple pencil and a paper.

Hi all,

Well here comes my view on Gorion, it is not really completet yet due to it is tiresome to paint with the mouse. I dream for a day when I can afford a tablet wacom. But the situation is as it is for a poor artist.

I made bmps also so he can be used in game.

Wow - that's mouse drawing? o.o Awesome job.

Poor Gorion. He looks like he has a black eye.

[Menelanna]

i thought the same thing but i did not want to be the first to say it. other than that it looks great!

[vilkacis]

I have... no excuse. Let's call this an alternate universe timeline, shall we? "What if... Gorion had rolled a natural 20?"



I'm a horrible person. xD

[flysoup]

Indeed he has a black eye, old and weary and worried on what is to be. No actually it is due to that it isn´t finished yet. And don´t be afraid to mention such things, I wont bite you.
