Bad Teeth, Worse Attitude – Cave Troll

[Peithetairos]

I am happy to present my entry to the 18th quarterly contest. I worked hard to achieve a nice contrast, using texture, complimentary colours and value. Another focus was the cavern base and the water and splash effects. I am happy how he turned out, but comparing him to the top four trolls I also know that I need to push myself even more. I guess that is what it is all about. 

 

 

 

Given the metal version is NSFW I include some links that show him in his full glory.

This is quite good.  I love the spittle and splotchy skin markings.

Very nicely done! The splotchy skin turned out really well!

 Much obliged. I was hoping to add some more interest and I think it worked.

Much appreciated. The drool effect was new to me, but worked out well. The freckles will definitly turn up again on other monsters. An easy way to add some interest.
