First of all - I'm sorry veeery much for delay, my internet was down for one day. but I'm here now, so.... HERE WE GO!!
This week we try to paint more complex action scene. The scene should contain two characters of your own design from the last speed challenge. BUT since there weren't many entries, I'm going to give a description that you can use.
"Twins - XXL and Tiny"
Race - humans; occupation - mercenaries.
XXL - warrior; 2 meters 26 cm high ( don't know how much it would be in inches ;) ), very broad shoulders, muscular, wears dark, metal armour, has leather clothes under it. He's smarter than he looks - has thick brow arches, small nose, strong chin; fights with double sword.
Tiny - wizard - 1 m 20 cm, has a small belly, but he's very agile. His magic is very powerfull, he can also fight with a long dagger, that is attached to his belt. He wears a simple, hooded robe and very ornmented belt.
When they fight - they work as one, due to their telepathic bond.'
You can use this description or not :) It's up to you, it's here to help you.
The main object of this challenge is to paint an action scene. Try to stick to the description that follows.
"The "hell" got unleashed."
'The temple was dark; the light beams that fell thru the windows placed high above the ground gave little light. But enough to show the silhouettes that surrounded them. Twins were trapped. This time they won't escape so easily - orcs DO remember their mistakes and this time they were prepared, even if they waited for four years. Orcs guarded "The Eye" - sacred shaphire, that the darker it is, the stronger it shines. Twins stole it once from the same temple - as the contract stated - and gave it to duke, collecting great sum of money, but orcs' agile thief stole it from him.
This time the doors were reinforced from the inside and when the mechanism closed them, the options got very limited. XXL was very calm, as he always was when the thing got very bad. His eyes were slowly and constantly changing the target, searching for weak points in orcish armour and remembering them. He also was very aware of the surroundings, the rubble on the left, the broken column two meters away, the long two rows of the good ones - good cover. There were many of them, but that's even better - one third of them will die from their own strokes. XXL smiled, glaring at the monk standing in front of him. In the meanwhile Tiny prepared the "Fire-Breath", now stood calmly and moved his fingers as he shaped the mana construct for the next spell. He was the first to notice the attack - one of the guards didn't hold his nerve, yelled and attack.
The "hell" got unleashed. The fire ball and double blade moved in great speed to meet their first enemies."
I want you to paint the scene when they stand preparing to battle, the moment of the first attack or a couple of moments after it. The main object is to play with the colours and the lighting.
The prize for winning this AND ANY OTHER challengeis Texture CD of your choice.
Deadline - Sunday the next week 22:00 GMT + 01:00
Have fun. Any questions/comments - please post :).
