Ok..nothing special - jst thought id make a quick
sketch of how i think the humans should look...
Could do with some obviouse fleshing out.

Anyway, i prefer more traditional western artwork..
your not gettin no manga crap from me :/

That's a pretty good drawing, I'll be submitting a concept of a human that is more armored than that in a few days.

Looks sweet as always Mat (a bit to much LOTR for my taste but still verry cool).

No haven't done anything with it i have been slacking... well not really been slacking but well bussy with real life, i hope i will have more time beginning of next year.

It's a nice drawing, but a little plain. Try for something that looks sort of like a thief with an oriental-feel. (For example, a combination of a gi and a moderate amount of armor - something creative looking with an appropriate theme but not out of the realm of the ordinary perse.)

I draw moderately well, but not well enough for conceptions.

Thanks for the comments guys..
Yup your probably right pascal - bit too Lord of Rings.
But then that is more classic fanstasy - im a bit worried
about going to far in the WarHammer/WarCraft direction.
(Human tanks with weapons bigger than the planet)

Also + no offense to oriental folks - im sick of
eastern influence...everything looks like a
bastardisation of west/east cultures...jst look at
any modern fantasy games :/

Ok enough moaning - i will probably try to add a
little eastern influence if thats what people really
want :/

Thanks again :))

In other words, make him look like a thief but not the typical black-hooded, crunched over type you always see everywhere else. Eastern clothes just look a little like that (hence the suggestion), since they can be almost fancy but good for everyday use as well. (Don't really make him look like a complete Chinaman.) :p

I was trying to get armor around a cloth outfit yesterday and it never looked too good. Good luck. :-/

yup..i see what your gettin at now..
jst - i seem to most of that manga influenced
stuff :/

..might have a go at your idea l8r..ive jst created
another concept(very rough) - Gothic Human.

Probably not going to be that popular either..

thanks for the feedback :)
