This huge orc is supposed to be a part of a bigger drawing of mine. Although, I am now quite sure that I'll never finish it since it's so, well, smudged and dirty.

Your poses are great and I love the realistic technique you use. This is what I imagine a real orc looks like, as opposed to the more cartoonish styles I see most often. It is a bit dark, though...scanner problem? Keep up the good work.... ~Celt

Hmm, I can't agree with you on that one, it doesn't look like real orcs would 12. The original Tolkien orcs were rather short and not this muscular. Somehow, modern RPGs changed them and turn them green. (I HATE green orcs for some reason).

If its fantasy, maybe its just how he sees the orc? I personally dont feel fantasy should be set so tightly and structured...hell its fantasy! ^_^ I really like your picture. He's a big scarey monster 12

I can't really speak for Icetec, but uh... The lord of the rings comes to mind.

O.o @ ice...
Where did you read that orcs are small and cowardly?

His hands are a little big stiff and his back looks painfully twisted around.

I like this drowing. Maybe this orc doesn't looks like tolkien's ones, but the traditional orcs from popular tales (at least here in Galicia) are big and muscular, like this one. That's why I love this kind of orcs, they make me recollect the tales I was told when a little kid.
