The reason being, as I need all of your help to chime in and share each of your opinions, on the work I’ve been preparing, for Blizzard Entertainment’s Annual Blizzcon Art Contest (http://us.battle.net/blizzcon/en/blog/10174611/Enter_the_BlizzCon_2013_Original_Art_Contest-6_7_2013).
The contest requirements is to essentially create a piece of original artwork/ design that resides in one of Blizzard’s acclaimed franchises: Starcraft, Warcraft (World of Warcraft), Diablo etc.
My entry is based upon the illustrious universe of Starcraft. The premise of my entry, is that I’ve been illustrating a scenario and conceptualising the idea of a fallen Terran Marine, who has been captured by the Protoss and surgically reformed by them, with the purpose of learning more about humans. What the Protoss end up creating, is a hybrid marine/ protoss humanoid creature, to serve them in battle. But it attempts to break free from it’s confinement - a suspended animation chamber and tries to escape from it’s captors by force.
My illustrations basically portray different viewpoints and moments of this short story I’ve concocted. Please keep in mind, they are also in a compositional/ developmental or “thumbnail” (Term used to describe artwork, first produced at a smaller ratio size, for the purposes of simply mapping out/ giving indication of how an illustration will be presented on a larger scale canvas) state, which is why they are not fully detailed and are loose sketches.
All I’m asking, is for you each of you, to simply take a moment and post (vote) what numbered illustration you like i.e. #1. That’s it! Or even better, I would greatly appreciate it if you could each include a reason with your vote that way I can understand where I am hitting and missing viewers’ interests with my works, so I can keep on improving. I’ll indeed inform you all of the one I’ve decided on, in part my judgement and which compositional piece receives the most votes. This will then kickstart the process of me refining and rendering one of these illustrations, into a beautiful piece of artwork that I can hopefully wow the judges with. The competition’s deadline is on August 23rd, so once they’ve posted the results I’ll notify you all here.
In due time, I’ll post the complete Journal Ambience #14 blog posting, once I’ve finished preparing my recount of what has recently been happening and what to expect in the near future.I would also like to welcome all my new followers/ friends and thank each one of them for their support. In addition to those that have been supporting me. I’m sincerely grateful.
Until then I await to read what each of you think of my work and hopefully you all won’t have to wait too long for JA #14?
Thanks.
Note:
My apologies everyone, I forgot to post this entry here, at the same I posted it on the conjoined Marc Forza Design Facebook page.
