The Infinity Blade Fan Art Thread

[Lazare]

Being a long-time Infinity Blade fan and an iPad sketchhead, I've been doing a lot of doodles around the game. And while I'm proud to say I've been named Epic Gamer of April by the fine folks at the Team Epic Gamers community, I think there's a lot of talent out there that deserves the recognition as well.

The official Facebook page of Infinity Blade II does have an album dedicated to fan creations - some amazing ones, by the way - as well as the Team Epic Gamers deviantART page, but I was surprised that we have no such alternative here at the forums. So I thought I'd cook up one thread to accommodate all fan art, making it a great place to appreciate the works of all the artists showing their love for the game, and maybe do so ourselves =)

I'll be scouring websites like deviantART to find and link new fan creations as often as I can. I'll post them separately with a preview, and also add their links here in the OP. I want to keep this thread active and alive because I've come across tons of amazing IB-themed stuff that I think you guys should totally see. Any suggestions to how all this should work are welcome! =)

To start off, I'll link some of my own stuff; I'll be adding in new artists and fan art regularly, but I don't want to spam too often either. I'll find a pace and keep this topic running for as long as I can, and I hope you guys enjoy it =) And feel free to post any Infinity Blade fan art you happen to come across or create!

Amazing Infinity Blade fan art by Orathio on deviantART. Check it out!

[synge32]

Can we make requests? Here are mine!

1. Opening scene in IB:Awakening, when Siris comes swinging in on the chains and slices up some lame Daerils.

2. Siris using the "Pattern's of true swordsmanship" in IBA (similar to the above mentioned, he slices up numerous Marrow Fiends at once, I think he's in a small riverbed as well)


3. Any scene from IBA


LOL, just thought I would ask! Great stuff Lazare

[Harry-Son]

Requests would be awesome, but you are an awesome artist Lazare.. so this should be right up your street!!

I would love to see detailed sketches and drawings of various weapons / armour sets (not necessarily drawn on Siris etc).

Really exited to see what you would say to a few requests!

Amazing Infinity Blade fan art by Orathio on deviantART. Check it out!

Fantastic!

[Lazare]

My initial reason for this thread was to collect and organize IB fan art from various artists, I don't like having so much attention on myself all the time, that was the point =P But I don't know, if you guys want, I can consider a few requests. I have an incredibly busy schedule though, I usually draw in sessions of a few hours every two or three days, so I can't promise quick results =P So I don't know about requests just yet. I appreciate the wish though, it means a lot that you hold me in such regard. I'll keep everyone posted on that =)

In the meantime, more awesome fan art!

You're the best we know! Everybody always loves the champion!

Fantastic art work to look at here. Very very talented indeed.

[Lazare]

Harry-Son, I'm really REALLY humbled by your words =) thanks.

And now for something special, a very good friend of mine and a founding member of Team Epic Gamers, arukun14 has got a fair share of kickass Infinity Blade pieces. Definitely visit http://www.arukun14.com/ to check more of his stuff out!

Awesome!!! I have a kick ass new wallpaper!

[baincardin]

Great Lazare!! Now we can refer you as an "Art-Archivist"! Great start to share an artwork pieces by all great fans of IB universe. Sincerely, I'm in deep enthusiastic on your great artworks of IB that featured in IB Facebook. I'm trying to do a simple sketch on IB-related things and it's really fun! Great to have this thread in this forum.

[baincardin]

plus an excellent 5-star for this thread! yay!

[Lazare]

Thank you everyone! Here's an amazing piece by Mark Loertscher that has been featured in the IBII Facebook album!

[Lazare]

A bunch of awesome Infinity Blade sketches by Sean N!

[Lazare]

I don't want this thread to be just about drawings, "art" entails so much more than that. With that in mind, I wanted to showcase this gorgeous God King papercraft from deviantART user lubre53:



Incredible stuff. By the way guys, I've changed how the first post works on artist features - I'm either linking to galleries or single pieces now, just so the artists themselves are properly recognized without a clutter of their work which I'll post separately anyway. It'll give the post more "space" and, well, an organized feel. I think so anyway.

[grantnoe]

Lazare, talk to RedWhite&Blade about this sculpture; he has connections to this person!

[synge32]

Lazare, talk to RedWhite&Blade about this sculpture; he has connections to this person!

I LOVE this sculpture, it is so realistic as well, but I wonder what the GK was doing in those bushes?

This one is funny as well . http://epicgames.com/community/wp-co...53-d4cgzj1.jpg. " Impudent child! Open the bathroom door this instant !"

A little something from me again. I threw this together in Photoshop while pondering what a great movie Infinity Blade would make. Nudge nudge, Hollywood! =D

Lol! Art-Archivist! =D Let's see if that sticks.

And thank you for the kind words. Feel free to share your sketches with us here if you want =)

[timmy1114]

Amazing talent lazare.

[Lazare]

Much appreciated, timmy =)

More pencil art! I'm loving this Iron Guard by Oxide23 on deviantART:

[Paul202]

I was wondering what some iPad artists here use to create such wonderful masterpieces. I was looking at an app called Procreate, and it's reviews are very positive, but I would like some input from the community before trying it out.

[Lazare]

Paul, I have heard nothing but the best about Procreate, but I haven't tried it myself - too much emphasis on pure brushpainting, and I'm not really that kind of person. I use Sketch Club, for several reasons; for starters, its toolset is HUGE. From vectors to pens to custom brushes plus community-made ones you can download, it's bursting with various ways to draw. It also comes with a handy record feature which allows for some quality speedpaints, I've tried it a few times and it works like a charm. And last but not least, it is integrated into its own little social network of sorts, where you can share paintings and get input and feedback from other Sketch Clubbers (that's how I like to call them =P). It's fun.

Not sure how it stacks up against Procreate in the general sense though, so I suggest you check out the reviews for SC as well and then decide what suits you most. Hope that helped, and good luck!

[Paul202]

When using sketching apps, would you reccomend using a stylus? Is so, which one?

[Lazare]

I definitely recommend a stylus. I myself use an Acase 2, but I've heard many great things about Wacom Bamboo as well. So take a look at those two if you want to go for a purchase anytime soon, I personally can't draw two straight lines without a stylus =P

[Silversabeast]

Lazare, we are all very fortunate to have one with your talent in the community.

[Lazare]

Thank you, I'm in turn very fortunate to be a part of this awesome community =)

And thanks everyone for the 1000 topic views! Glad people are enjoying this.

[gr00veh0lmes]

c'mon guys. What about rule 34? :0

[Aussi3]

c'mon guys. What about rule 34? :0

Rule 34 ?

[Lazare]

No Rule 34 from me, sorry gr00ve. =D feel free to post if you come across any though, I guess... if it's within reason. =)

Aussi, you can Google it if you want, it's a pretty simple concept in the Internet :P

[Lazare]

Ok, I guess there is no "within reason" when it comes to 34... gr00ve, can I ask you to remove that? Let's just keep this topic clean. =P my personal views aside, this might not bode well with general site rules either.

[gr00veh0lmes]

Done.

I really did think rule 34 was a joke. I didn't expect that. Blimey, what's the world coming (haha) to!

[Lazare]

Indeed, gr00ve =P and yikes! Forgot a bit about this thread. Let's revive the fan art awesomeness!
