I could not resist the excitement of the Thief 4 news and did this piece, hope I'll have time to do some more Thief inspired artworks
Nice!
Nice work
That's glorious work, Dominus!

Ooh, Nice work! I like it. Buildings are a bit tall in the background, but otherwise its very nice.
Erm. What Thief 4 news? Where? What'd I miss? *looks around frantically*
Pssst, Elentari. And good to see you on the boards, again.

You are very talented. The second painting is great.
Ooh, thanks, jtr, I missed that. Still a bit vague to get too excited, as far as I've read so far, but any potential is progress from the definite 'no' we've gotten in the past.
Yay! Glad to hear.
New nice work by Scourge http://scourgesoul.com/viewart.php?id=94&mode=huge
Wow! That one has some interesting things going on.
At first it looks like a hazy forest setting, then it looks more like softened H.R. Giger, and looks like how Karras might imagine himself in the Builder's Paradise before he joins the Master Builder.
And sorry, Kin. I looked at your pics after the most recent offerings. I like your technique! And yeah, the golden trees really pops! Are any of those interpretations of actual places?
Seeing the quiver of Garrett in Dominus's (in fact Domini) great picture, I remember that none of the original artworks show Garrett using his bow correctly. Most of the time the arrow is on the wrong side or Garrett appears to be left-handed. Being right-handed, the quiver should in fact pop out over his right shoulder then, which it doesn't in most of the artworks either.
Yes all paintings are real places
Very good!
Thank you
Dominus, .....holy cow thats amazing !!!
7 hours, hant and something in the dark)

AWESOME pictures dominus and first_keeper!!
dominus: you really get a sense of movement out of the pic and the colours are spot on.
first_keeper: brilliantly textured, vibrant and bloody creepy! hehe
That one looks cool, too.
However – and I know I'm a grinch – people like me who have to do with bows, armour and historical stuff are easily distracted by little mistakes in the artworks. I already mentioned the arrows on the wrong side, here I recognize the strange bow tips, but these heavy shoulder protectors one can see everywhere are also ridiculous because you slam them into your own face once you raise your arm. They work for cavalry, this much is true, but for foot soldiers they're nonsense (and never appear at least in secondary sources like the Osprey books). Vambraces are in fact similarly rarely found and the fact that T1-Garrett's quiver is somehow riveted to his tunic is probably the most ridiculous thing ever.
Here's some older thief related stuff I made in the past year or so, mostly speedpaintings. I might be persuaded to do some commissioned art as well, as long as it's just inspired by thief and not breaking the IP.
Larger version, as requested
And a gay haunt, obviously...
wow! great stuff, redface! :]
good eye for colors...
Ah, finally! Really great, I like City pictures most of all.
Gorgeous work, redface.
