JB - Hero - Muc cel Mic

[J.B.]

steampunk hero saves the day, poac:dance:
Hello, it would be to bad to not give a go for this cool new challenge so here is my little hero by the name Muc cel Mic ( an old childrens storybook title ) he is a monster hunter that will save the humanity by the evil giant farting dragons, oh yeaa, and he will have a stupid companion allso that kinda screws his sneaking plans, i'l get more in the story when i got new ideas :D, until than here is a concept and a sketch, at the begining i was thinking about a mongolian type of warrior with a golden hammer, it woulded be cool to say IT's HAMMER TIME and smack the monster in the head, so i end up with a steampowered armor, and i think an electric hammer or so ( i'l think about this more, if you got any ideas feel free to post them :) )

Hey JB! Long time no see ;) Love your "childlike" designs, they always fit nice with any story! And it seems you have improved your painting skills, this is very good to see!

Keep it up man! =D

[Brazucka]

Lovely!

[M_Cederstrom]

That cut... He kinda reminds me of a younger Thor. :D :haha:

Awesome character and composition JB. Maybe you scale the dragon up a bit. I think the greater size difference between the hero and dragon would make it even more humorous.

i second that. :D

[J.B.]

thank you guys for all your feedback
@resenhista - you will see more of my childlike designs because i work in children books illustrations for about two years, thanks to my lazy buddy Hammering3D :o
@zanman thanks for the advices, i'l surely try that
work is going real slow since i'm working on 3 books atm so when i get a little time of my own i draw a little more to the scene, so here is an update, thank you all again

[hammering3D]

:crazy: who's talking lazy :ufo:

[M_Cederstrom]

nice update. :D

[aby arty]

J.B. will soon be called KEREM BEYIT LITE !! :D

[J.B.]

:D what does that mean?
Edit:
ahahah i just did a google, i would love to paint like that guy :P

[aby arty]

yeah me too !! XD

see my avataar , its kerems steampunk dragon. :D

[J.B.]

another update, though i have to change one of his legs to look corect... i just realise that

[AbdultheNewt]

This is wonderful! I love the texturing you have going on with the dragon. Can't wait to see it all come together.

[J.B.]

some changes, i have changed the little dude's head position and the helmet, i use this reference (http://www.instructables.com/files/deriv/FE8/CIB7/FQWVUQ9N/FE8CIB7FQWVUQ9N.MEDIUM.jpg) for the helm but make it with metal and stuff...

[zanman]

Wow...J.B looking awesome thus far..

[J.B.]

tadam :)

[washka]

Wow nice one! Care with the spine spikes.
I like the concept, it's funny, and don't beat the teddy with the hammer! :)

[AbdultheNewt]

Beautiful! I had originally thought of doing a more cartoony image for my piece, but didn't think I could pull it off as a painting. You, however, did so brilliantly. Nice work.

[M_Cederstrom]

wow awesome work. :D

[Resenhista]

Haha now this is amazing JB!! Excellent work! Great design and colors...poor dragon, he'll be slammed lol

Awesome work =D

[noundo]

yee, cool! i really like the mood of this picture, it makes me smile)

[aby arty]

sweet!! but wheres the dragon's i pod and left over cheese burger ? :D

[J.B.]

thank you guys :) and thanks for the advices, i'm noting on a paper... so "no slamming the teddy bear on the face (maybe on the ribs it leave no marks muhahaha), dragon would be smashed on the face (we need someone to clean the place after), crazy characters and fat dragons make people smyle ( good to know in future drawings :D), where's the dragon's ipod and left over chese burger...(damn when did you see me taking those, i thought no one was there... damn)
thanks for the great feedback guys, i'm thinking to darken the scene a bit or ading some bright colors in some areas... but we will see :)

[L3XICON]

love the style :D great work. fits the brief perfectly, tells a story without words

[M_Cederstrom]

J.B. did you give that dragon sleeping pill's? :D After the burger.

[hammering3D]

Ohh come on guys don't spoil him :D he will become more lazy that he is ;P

Actually I think I will inform PETA about this thread, this is not the right way to treat an dragon.

[rocneasta]

if i would take up on your painting and try to recreate it - they would call it slow as **** painting, instead of speed painting

loving the detail and overall feel

slight detail, dragons left upper arm should be bigger, when compared to the right arm that's passing below his head to his left side - when you compare those two, either one should be enlarged a bit, or the other downsized, but due to positioning i guess making one bigger is easier

[J.B.]

they where out of big tedy bears so i had to make him one little arm lol

[M_Cederstrom]

Ohh come on guys don't spoil him :D he will become more lazy that he is ;P

Actually I think I will inform PETA about this thread, this is not the right way to treat an dragon.

I agree get peta number. :D

[hammering3D]
