A painting for dsc85/Tegon and geldazane/Bronzewing. Another gaming themed one, like the older Fallout one, this time in the world of Horizon: Zero Dawn. The two are set to take down a big catch. (Dinosaur is loosely based on the Thunderjaw of the game.)
This one was a ton of fun. Similar to the Fallout one in my own goals as well, as the last time they commissioned me, I tried harder to jump my quality a tiny bit. So I played with some dappled lighting, a bunch of mech parts, and textures I don't generally tend to employ a lot. I'm proud of the result~ I haven't played Horizon myself, but I really want to. Especially after getting to look at concept art and gameplay of the game for this project.
Have some music!

Critiques welcomed as always! (I do know my mech/pespective is a little off in parts. Need more practice.)
A Sergal riding a mecha-dinosaur..............I mean, really? Can art get any better than this???? :D
I think my favorite part of this piece, though.........it's the camera angle you gave it. A slight tilt really gives this a cool view of the action! :)
The original thumbnail was very straight-on. But I figured, since Tegon is meant to be leaning his shot to get a better angle, and Bronzewing/geldazane (I don't actually know his sergal's name...!) is riding the creature... A little bit of a lean helps that action. It was a little tough figuring out the landscape due to it, but I feel I managed pretty well.
And thank you!! Hopefully I continue to go up from here~ I feel there has to be better stuff! But for now... It may not be humble, but I'm gonna say I agree -- it doesn't get better than this~
Very nice work! Brings back memories of Horizon for sure; such a great game. I especially like the red glow and the "battle damage" effects on the mech itself.
Ahhhh, good! I'm glad that comes through. I haven't gotten to play it myself (no PS4), so I could only work from footage or concept art. Tried to use elements of the game to help bring back the feeling of that game... Then again, I mean, robot dinosaurs. Let's be honest, that basically sells itself, the work was sort of done for me, eh?
And thank you!! <3
