I almost spent more time on the background than I did on the central figure. I did up about 4 different backgrounds before I settled on this one. The problem was that I was making the backgrounds too complicated and ther were swallowing up the elf when I really wanted him to stand out but still ‘fit’ in his background.

In the end I was happy with it as I didn’t rely on a outline like i usually do and and I painted a dude for once…even though he is somewhat effeminate. Hard not to be when you’re an elf.

I did one of these pictures up last year for a charity event called "Mosaic for Mental Health" that is held yearly in Halifax by CMHA to help those who have suffered from mental illness. Here’s last years: http://dorkwerks.com/blog/seeds-of-jubilation/

A Tiefling Warlock by the name of Drake. Tried to push myself to complete the whole char and not just the upper half like I usually do. Still got a bit lazy on the lower half but that’s the way it goes.
