Dreamphaser Posted October 25, 2012 Hello people, This is my very first post on any doom related forum. I created this account to show my art ( also doom related ) to all of u fanatics. Making this image was a distinct pleasure and a real challenge. I only took the ingame sprites as a reference and i tried to make it as true as possible to however i always experienced the hellknight. It's not perfect and some may have a different feeling about it, but i hope u still all enjoy the image as much as i did making it. Perhaps in the future i may make more if i'm in the mood :) http://th06.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/i/2012/298/6/f/hell_knight_from_doom_by_dreamphaser-d5ixo30.jpg The same and more art can be viewed here at my DA page or blog : http://dreamphaser.deviantart.com/gallery/ http://dreamphaser.blogspot.be/ 0 Share this post Link to post
Krispy Posted October 25, 2012 Awesome! That looks like something I would buy from a gallery! As a word of advice, though, maybe tone down the veins a bit. 0 Share this post Link to post
ComicMischief Posted October 26, 2012 Nice work in your gallery in general. Watched you, I'm 'Jayextee'. Hi. :) 0 Share this post Link to post
Evolution Posted October 26, 2012 Kickass! I really like the see-thru veins (or "connected gross stuff") in the neck, and the feel of malice this beast has. 0 Share this post Link to post
Sarcose Posted October 30, 2012 Nice. Instantly recognizeable to a DooM player as a Hell Knight/Baron. I like the veins, personally: the intense veins and the exposed/outlined tendons in the back of the neck really invoke the DooM feel. 0 Share this post Link to post
DoomUK Posted October 30, 2012 That's insanely good. One of the best Doom-related pieces of artwork I've ever seen. As a side note, one can only hope this is the kind of concept design id are using as a platform to build Doom 4's aesthetic on. 0 Share this post Link to post
Maes Posted October 30, 2012 I see you went for the doomesque bovine/baboon hybrid short-snout representation :-) I prefer it over stereotypical goat traits. 0 Share this post Link to post
Dreamphaser Posted October 30, 2012 @ Maes : yeah i wanted to stay away from the facial characteristics that are shown on the original cover. i always felt that ingame they had a shorter nose rather than the elongated one u see on the cover. well it will always remain a personal impression. glad u like it. 0 Share this post Link to post
MacBeth Posted November 1, 2012 Very cool dude, I really like the lighting and the texture of the horns and skin. :) Of the two why did you choose the Hell knight and not the Baron? 0 Share this post Link to post

NiTROACTiVE Posted January 21, 2013 That Hell Knight looks awesome! You did a great job with it, and you should also do the other monsters as well. 0 Share this post Link to post
RyRy13 Posted May 27, 2013 This is so cool! I wish I could frame this and hang it in my room. Art like this is almost inspiring. People like you have so much talent and I admire that. 0 Share this post Link to post
Butts Posted June 10, 2013 Thousands of words of praise can't do justice to art that good. Well done. I prefer the "baboon" style face rather than the goat face. It looks more... mean, or evil or something... more aggressive I guess. 0 Share this post Link to post
