The Sanctum

I’ve been talking on and off for a while now with my good friend Charles – who is a professional artist – about the idea of doing a custom portrait for a character from my Sanctum of the Archmage saga. We’ve recently agreed to go ahead and try this out with Orion, and I thought I’d post (with his permission) his first sketch to solicit some player feedback.

Keep in mind that this is a preliminary sketch, and that he’s already working on several changes that we’ve discussed to better fit my image of Orion and his personality. The main ones will be to shorten his hair, and to change his pose and expression to be more direct (looking right at the viewer) and less threatening.

Here it is. If you have thoughts or suggestions, let us know what you think!

It’s official: I received word last night that my Master’s Essay has been approved! Now all I have left to do is to visit campus on Monday to shepherd the paperwork through the Registrar’s office, and I should be all set to graduate in January.
