Amon Ad-Raza
First off, I’d like to thank http://dribbble.com/crozer for the invite, means a lot man.
400x300 isn’t that big, so I had to crop this piece quite a bit. To see the full image: http://howietzer.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d474jo5
Now for some history:
So I’ve been trying to get in with some game companies for like the past 5 years, lol. Of course I really sucked back when I first started so I can’t really count 3 years of those attempts.
This piece is some fan art I did recently of a war game called “Warmachine” owned by Privateer Press. They have an RPG called “Iron Kingdoms” as well. Overall they produce some really awesome stuff.
I started the piece on their forum and did updates as I went along. This was an attempt to get the moderator’s attention, which worked but not as well as I had hoped. The posts can be seen here: http://privateerpressforums.com/showthread.php?74827-Amon-Ad-Raza-%28WIP%29
Technical info:
This piece is primarily Photoshop. I did use some photos of fire I took back in the mid to late 90s. I illustrated the machinery in the background as well, except for the gears.
I’m happy with how it turned out but still waiting patiently for acceptance.
