Comicon 2011 rears its super head and I'm in!
I've postponed the previous character in order to enter the competition over at gameartisans.org
If you're not familiar with Gameartisans, it's a community of game artists and animators brought together on its forum to take part in competitions and post up pieces of work. If you are an artist of any form I would recommend checking it out as there is some amazing talent on show!
I had entered the competition before but never finished. This was due to my lack of expertise at the time however and I return this year with every intention to complete the challenge.
This time round in the character art category, we are tasked with creating a known super hero or villain originating from a comic and setting them in an alternate universe.
There have been some great entries so far including my friend Dan who has entered the concept category, where the same rules apply, and opted to create a Renaissance Spawn. It looks great so far and I'm hoping that Ubi Soft see it and ask if they can use it as a playable character in a future incarnation of Assassins Creed!

For my personal entry, I am envisioning The Punisher in Medieval times as a black knight

So far I have put together a reference sheet but I am currently working on a concept that I hope to have complete by the end of today. Here's the reference sheet for now but check back soon for further progress!
