I really like the first version of that high elf, it's very clean and the coloring is neat.  Plus, his face and hair are detailed and quite pretty~ :rolleyes:

The second one certainly has a more interesting and compelling background, but I feel like the vague-ish coloring job sort of took away some of the fancier details.  Of course, you were aiming for a more dramatic look, soo...  That said, the lighting & texture on the staff in the second version are really professional-looking and gorgeous.  Posted Image

Thanks for the constructive criticism and you have some good points. Anyway as you said I was looking for more 'drama' in the 2nd edition. But as you mentioned the coloring is a bit vague-ish. I am more used with 'comic' influenced art. Anyway I darkened the image and added some more light sources to increase the drama, also added a warmer filter tune. I remember many of those icewind dale portraits that had a lot of black in them and light sources working very well in contrast creating a dramatic mood/feeling.

Here is the 3d and final version of my friends request having him portrayed as an High Elf. It will surely take weeks before I ever portray a point-ear again ;)

Best of the lot if you ask me. Like the lighter colours and general look and feel of this one.

I also think this one turned out to the better compared to the others. I used my own style in the 3d piece and felt more secure
in what I was doing.

The artwork of comics should be used more often as a learning tool :)

Here is yet another teaser of the Bhaalspawn prologue. Remember that the current teaser pages that I have updated doesn't come in chronological order. I come up with idead as the progress goes on. They will be in order on the upcoming website though ;) I wonder when the site is at due? Have patience my friends and many thanks goes to the person that actually struggle with the construction of the website. Until then the teasers will keep coming at you :) Artwork/Script: Michael Script/Script edit: prune 1

Here are the version of the previous page with black shadows added. I know that many of the shadows doesn't makes sense when it comes to 'real' terms of light and shadows. I go for what I think looks cool mostly ;)

And here is another teaser from the upcoming Bhaalspawn webcomic. Remember that the pages haven't been updated in a chronological order. Also many pages haven't gone through the visual improvement edits yet. The older updates are not grammatical corrected nor visually improved. All those issues will be corrected on the upcoming website. So I guarantee you a new experience there both visually and the script.

he Bhaalspawn webcomic is up running! So if you are a fantasy geek or just a bit into pointed ears and bearded stocky females then head in to bhaalspawn.com. Artwork/Script: Michael Hansson Script/Script edit: prune 1 Baldur's Gate is a bioware copyright and Dungeons and Dragons is a Wizards of the Coast copyright. We will try to update at least once a week. The webpage will be developed further in the future. But for now you can at least read the comic. So my friends bhaalspawn.com is the place to head to from now on :)
Thank you all for the feedback and encouraging words. You have all helped to inspire me and to make me develop!

Good speed!

Hi friends,

I know that sundays is the mentioned update day of the Bhaalspawn webcomic. But I couldn't stop myself from updating in advance. So what are you waiting for, quit reading my ramblings and head in to: http://bhaalspawn.com/ for the latest page or read from the beginning if you are a newcomer.

Good speed and safe adventuring/
