I almost want ot start playing Guild wars just for the uhm..

the .. charr? the kitty people. Anyways, love the pic.

looks like an old cave painting!

Wow...You're trying to apply to Arenanet? That's like my dream so I can meet my favorite artist.
Love the Charr~ Charr engineer yeah!

I'm going to assume by your gallery that your favourite is Kekai? I'm a Daniel Dociu man myself. That guy is so damn cooooool!

I really love Kekai's character concept pieces but Levi Hopkins and Daniel Dociu create environments that are tremendously appealing.
But yes, Kekai is my favorite artist because every of his piece appealed to my emotions and is also the artist who made me strive to change my style completely and discontinue my anime style.

would be awesome to meet kekai

I love this style. So emotive.

Oh my fucking god.
Oh my sweet mother fucking god.
This is my favorite thing you've uploaded yet. It's so moving. It's raw, it's forceful, and to be honest it's making me emotional. I don't know if it's the loose lines, the dynamic poses, the fluidity of movement, or that facial expression and body language. I think honestly it's just the fine application of technique, messy chaos in a controlled way. The simplified highlights that underlay a solid grasp of anatomy, the contours and the shodws, miniscule details eaisly lost in the first look over but experienced and explored by longer and deeper examination.

cannot wait for guild wars 2! i've been obsessively building my hall of monuments lol

This..absolutely..kicks my ass! I want it.

This is just beautiful.

nice, it kind of looks like he's using the guitar emote lol

Two of my favorite things, Charr and Dervish :P

Always wanted to see art of these guys, thanks!

Is this Traditional or Digital?

Yes.

It's a graphite & coloured pencil sketch with some Photoshop on top of it.

I very much enjoy the way you used blur in this piece--it looks like a combination between oil-painting and eraser rub.
Did you use Photoshop for that particular effect, or was that a form of traditional-media sorcery?

I actually didn't use blur—it's just a brush on a low opacity. I pick colours from the original image and reinstate them in layers to keep things from looking too predictable.

Interesting. I'll certainly say that it adds variety, and in my humble, science-practitioner opinion (as I'm no artistic grand poobah), is rather reminiscent of the style the ANet team seems to enjoy plying in art.

Love the movement on the background character

Big scary beasty!
