"Orcish Warlord" by Tsune D. Orozco Toda

*Sums comments up under one picture* I know I say this everytime I comment on your pictures, but you have no idea how good it feels to see that one of my favorite artists in the Wood is active. Not only active, but making great leaps and bounds in improvement and techniques. In each of these pictures here you can see a change; whether it's how you captured the lighting, emotion, or depth in the picture.

The 'Orc Warrior' picture is probably the favorite among your most recently uploaded. The fire in the background looks realistic and even the light reflecting from the Orc's face and armour looks like something from a photograph, not something digitally manipulated. The muscles and the tendons as well.. He looks as if he has enough power to break a man's hand with just his fist.

In the 'Holy Crusader', "RETREAT!!!", and "Lethal Blow" pictures, you can really feel the emotion going on: anguish, pain, honor, boldness and urgencey. Like Maya said, it looks like you hit pause from an action movie. Very, very superbly done.

Lastly, your 'Orcish Warlord' picture is done beautifully. Very smooth, and very professional. Those Orcs look very much ready to slay some humans, and you've set the mood well with the look in their eyes. I saw this at the Lucid Raven site I got to see through a link on your page. I was hoping you'd put it up so I'd get to comment on it! Again, the lighting is captured perfectly and you've got the depth really well.

You've left us all with a sense of envy over your impressive works. It's very good to see that you're making something very successful with your art. We all hope very much to see more!

I love it!! Can I join the raid? Are we killing Humans!! *quickly grabes her spear, bow and helm. Then jumps in with the group* Awsome work and im not just saying that becase I am a orc.. *chuckles* Realy I love the feeling, reminds me of the days we would raid human villages and towns in Ultima Online with my Orc clan!
