Howdy folks, and welcome back to another art piece featuring one of the heroes that makes up Cora’s Champions (and friends).\u00a0 Today we’re looking at the stalwart-yet-tortured Megit, a paladin who is on the cusp of losing their faith.\u00a0 We once again collaborated with Valence to bring the character to life, having used a portrait that we’d used earlier through another artist, Lunarvvrens.<\/p>\n

Lance started us off with a pretty basic sketch.\u00a0 We wanted to show off the equipment that Megit uses, so you can see some vague shape of his hammer, and his shield here.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We put a bit more polish on the sketch next, and you could see that Megit is a paladin who has a tremendous force at hand when it comes to his equipment and his armor.\u00a0 The shield is plenty big, the hammer is hefty, and his armor looks mighty heavy.\u00a0 It should be nothing for a warrior of conviction to handle, but he’s doing a good job with it, it seems.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Valence actually gave us a third sketch, because he wanted to make sure that our symbols and sigils were presented effectively.\u00a0 That’s because, as a force of one of the gods of Tellest, Megit needed to wear his faith quite literally on his chest.\u00a0 He also has it emblazoned on his shield.\u00a0 The Tellestian god Animus is represented by the tree of life, which you’ll see in this sketch on both of those pieces of gear.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

With our first splash of color, we also get a bit of polish, which really helps to sell you on where exactly this piece was going.\u00a0 Megit is a towering force, and now having moved beyond the sketch phase, you can see the fierce gaze that he maintains.\u00a0 Truly, this paladin is almost always one of the first to enter the fray.\u00a0 Dave plays him so well, and is always a quintessential force in bringing the roleplaying elements of the game to the forefront.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And here we have the final look at our mighty paladin.\u00a0 Though he’s questioning his faith, you’d never see that internal struggle from here in the artwork.\u00a0 With a bit of shine and shadow, Valence brings this character to life in a way befitting of our player, and we could not be happier with how it turned out.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As of this writing we are finally in the planning stages of trying to get the Cora’s Champions campaign back in order.\u00a0 It has been a long time because of the pandemic, but we’re ready to roll dice again, and I have been working my butt off to get plenty of things prepared for a glorious return.\u00a0 Stay tuned, and we’ll have more to show before you know it!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
