This is 'Geth'. One of the characters from the new 'Dragon Below' trilogy in the world of 'Eberron'. A book I just poured through in 3 days.

I know this is probably not the right forum for this, but I felt inspired and I figured I would share. Enjoy! :whistling

Oh, and I know the pose is all messed up ;)

Wow. I came into the thread expecting the drawing to be below par because you mispelled his name "Geth" as Gef, but I must say, I'm REALLY impressed by that. I love it. The face is hard and powerful, and you captured his Great Gauntlet excellently. Keep on doing Eberron art! You don't take requests, do you? heh. : )

Honestly, I really love it. Keep up the good work, and keep showing your Eberron Art!

Yep. Geth's a shifter with the beasthide trait and uses a 'Great Gauntlet' and a sword in the book.

I hope he does Singe. Fireball mage! RAWR!

The pose doesn't look messed up that much. It just looks like he's really angry.

Keep up the good work, and post more of them if you do them, please.

That is an excellent piece of art. Now I just need a scanner so I can post some of my twisted little ideas. Not that I'm as good as you but what the hey.

Hehe I can't believe I called him the wrong name. That's just too rich. Shows you what happens when you stay up way too late and post while recovering from a few drinks.

Heh. I'll forgive the mistake because the art is so go. Do you have anything else you want to share?

Ok so tonight I was bored and started playing with my painter program. I'm no where near and expert, but hey if you have fun doing it then where is the harm.

I decided to fix my pencil drawing I originally posted on here. Little did I know that painter would mimic pencil lead so well. I just need to get used to it and these drawings may look more crisp in the future.

Well here's the update with all the suggestions taken into consideration. So I did hear what you had to say before, I was just too lazy at the time to go back and mess with it. Now here is the edited version with a smaller head and a shirt that doesn't hide him so much. I could do more to it, but this will do for now. Enjoy! :D

That picture is excellent! Please some more.

BTW, where are the stats for the 'great gauntlet'?

Did anyone come up with stats for any of the character in the book?

There's probably a rule in these forums somewhere where it prohibits the discussion of books, right? Otherwise, I'd like to talk about this great book...

Yes, we aren't allowed to speak about the book, but we are allowed to make stats and mechanics from things from the book. I would be curious to design the gauntlet as it is an armor and a weapon.

So i'm pretty new to this message board thing. I've replied to a few messages here and there, and posted questions of my own.

That's a cool piece you've got there ogreboy. Could you inform me of HOW you posted the art? Did you post it on a site and just link it? If so how did you do it? I'm fairly computer literate-especially with text/copy/pasting/downloading and such. But I would like to share some of my own artwork as well.

Thanks.

Yes, I uploaded the image to my porfolio at www.photobucket.com , and then I posted the link to the picture. Photobucket is free and it's fairly easy to use.
