Art pre-production. Week two.

This week David started to focus on the main look of the Durno´s character. Chosing the best from any thumbnail, he´s right now defining the visual identity of this race. Durno is the richest country on the Skara World; the warriors of Durno march into battle with golden armors, carrying a shield and a short sword. The main town of Durno is Jotheim, realm´s capital. Clan Adler reside in there, formed by the sons of noble rulers and citizens.

As you can see, we show you just the shield (too early to start sharing more concept sketches). David is trying to draw a very fierce warrior, but his armor and weapons reveal his aristocratic origin. Durno´s warrior are typical average characters. If what you want is a balanced fighter, strong and with good defensive skills, this should be your first choice. We thought it was a good idea to start the project developing this race for that reason, we could propose the average character and conceptualize from that point the larger and slower ones, or the smaller and agile ones.
