Evil Wiz


Evil wizards had already been haunting my dreams long before Saruman a la "Lord of the Rings"; . I was addicted to the 2D computer game Hocus Pocus some 12 years ago when i was a kid. So herez a speed sketch/painting of an evil wizard I did today for warming up.. Hope u guys like it

:) i like the dude... the flame effect and the expression on his face... but somehow i cant relate it to what you would visualize...when i imagine an evil wizard drawn by Kish i expect it to jump outta the frame and cast an evil spell on me... what i mean to say is.. play with ethnicity... evil wizards need not always be flowy beards and staffs... think of non-anglacised versions... facial tattoos like the maoris...ornate hair like the afro tribes...elaborate costumes like the wizards of the orient... not Jaffar-esque but something outta the ordinary... something that would stop you in your tracks.. i have a vague picture... but not quite clear... i am not talking about wizards a la amrish puri in indiana jones... but something a lil more unique... u getting what i am saying??
LOVE the colouring... especially the way the flames reflect off the strands of hair and the angular features... this could back fire but how about dreadlocks or braids? :S
