A recent commission done for the Everquest guild , The Syndicate. Once again they made me try something challenging and new which i haven't attempted before. Nice but time consuming. This time i had very little space to work upon since he wanted it on one sheet to cut the cost.
This is obviously inspired from a warcraft3 poster, some of the characters as well. Well that what he wanted, not much complaint about it except for the dark elf. At first he wanted me to draw Drizzt for the dark elf, but that kind of bothered me to use such known copyrighted character in there. Even though he authorized me to make another dark elf, he insisted on the dual weapon and scimitar, saying that every dark elf in Everquest are like that. Whoever work for Everquest at doing concept art should be fired and they should hire someone more original *shake head* Anyway. Enough ranting. Enjoy the pic!

There's lots of praise to be said for this piece--the movement is amazing, and you can practically taste the action and tension! You've managed to put in a lot of characters without making it look too crowded.

Very nice work. =)

Looks wonderful Kern. I've always loved your art and the coloring here is awesome sweetie. I don't play Everquest myself but if it looked anything like what you've drawn here I'd be nuts for it. ^____~ Great job but then again I think your art is awesome period. *hugs ya*

Bleh, stereotypes. Well you can't really complain too much about what your commissioner asks you to draw...they pay you, after all. This is defiantely one of your nicer CGs, a lot of action in it, and I really like the lighting.

Not all dark elves in Everquest are dual scimitar wielding, at lease from what i've seen of the game. That and all EQ dark elves are blue, not black. Which is why I dont really like EQ dark elves, dark blue elves just look weird to me. What's that minotaur thing in the back? That doesnt look like any of the races in EQ.

Anyway, very cool pic.
