With my entry:

"Sylvanas stands on a rocky pedestal in New Agamand (post-cataclysm), surrounded by her loyal, reanimated minions with mementos of her past both held in her hand and placed near her feet.

Sylvanas is an icon of success, strength and perseverance from impossible odds, and her story is intertwined with my own family story. In this painting, Sylvanas reflects my parents, who overcame great odds to come to America after being chased away from their homeland. From the strength and support of others, my parents are able to give me the future they never got to have.

Although Sylvanas bears mementos of her past, she recognizes the need to move forward in order to lead her people toward prosperity."

Might of the Forsaken Progress 5

I was really excited about posting videos of my progress today, but iShowU recorded the videos in a strange frame rate that After Effects did not like, so Handbrake is rewriting the FPS so that After Effects can read it tomorrow.

Did a lot of touch ups on the characters' faces and added an undead mage, pudge, and started a banshee.  I think I put in about 4 hours of work today (actually only about 3 hours 30 mins according to videos), but I was also watching a lot of Spider-man and Chinese dramas while drawing. xD  It was a productive day, I think.

I worry about Sylvanas not being the center of attention in this piece, but she'll be fine once I merge all the layers and play with lighting and color.  Right now the pudge is a bit small, and the banshee is a bit big, too. :P

Might of the Forsaken Progress 4, and Video of the Val'kyr

I finished Sylvanas' armor today and added a val'kyr based on the WoW 3D model.  I'll probably redesign the Val'kyr's model a little bit since that 3D model's armor is lol.  I also bought the iShowU program to record the making of the bad Val'kyr!  The video is too big though so I'll make it smaller next time.

Might of the Forsaken Progress 2, and warm-up

That bow is so difficult, and I'm sure the angle/perspective is off, but I'll fix it later.  Sylvanas now has 3 minions!  I also did a portrait practice...I need more practice on those.  I might also draw the other WoW races--I need to.  Perhaps I'll do one for a warm-up tomorrow.

Sylvanas Fan Art, "Might of the Forsaken"

I started this Sylvanas fan art and I plan to give it this "might of the forsaken" feeling.  I've never drawn her before, even though I think she's one of the most well-designed characters, ever.  This is something like 2-3 hours in.

She's only got two minions so far!  I thinking about adding a Val'kyr, but I'm not sure where I'd put her.  We'll see, I suppose!
