Artist's Comments

Decided to try a different background painting technique, a bit more suggestive impressionist realism. It turned out okay I think :/ This piece is one that I plan to enter into Blizzard's WarCraft contest, but if you know about my Sorche novel (which this piece was originally intended for), then you're familiar with this character remake.

Kasager Vagont wielding his signature magical bow, the Arco de Luz (meaning Bow of Light) which was forged by his adopted father, Parcis. The Arco de Luz generates various elemental arrows (fire, water, earth, wind, light, and dark) and combined with Kasager's inborn speed, fires them in rapid succession. The bow can also morph into the Sword of Retribution, which carries the same elemental abilities.

Put in many evenings on this one and a lot of detail.

Kasager: Arco de Luz by =liquidd-1 is a powerful elf rendition. Beyond the impressive outfit, the bow is incredible with all the details and how it is strung. The entire image lives up to the strength of the elven legends. (Suggested by ~freelancah and Featured by `Aeires)

Woo! Nice! Good to see some more of the entries being put online! ...I'm working on mine also--I wonder if everyone and their brother's going to be entering this for WoW...?

Anyway, really stunning work! It's certainly a departure from the usual WoW fanart you see! I really like the lighting and the camera angle especially...the piece has a lovely atmosphere to it. :D ...and that bow! Beautiful!! Great detail work!! I must take lessons from you on how to paint gold...very well done.

Good luck in the contest!!
