Very nice, nice, colours and shading.

 

Though your anatomy could do with work, to make it more realistic. Hire or purchase a good drawing book that focuses on anatomy. You'll be surprised how much your drawing will improve.

 

Or for this pic, just find a good skull reference image.

I did use a skull reference image, but just by itself, it didn't look scary or anything.

 

I do need to learn better anatomy drawing though.

I like it...love it actually. It has an old storybook horror quality to it that I prefer over what was seen in Thief.

 

Whoever does the model for the Haunt, they gotta try and copy that skull as closely as they can.

Wow. Yeah, I love it too. Well, the face anyway. It looks almost mummy like.

Maybe it's not its skull that looked wrong to me then - probably just its shoulders.

 

Hey has anyone thought about this - what are haunts? Skeletons with clothes on, some kind of ghost, or some kind of zombie with mostly flesh and just the skull showing?

 

Cause they look like they are totally skeletons, but their clothes are filled out, as if they have flesh on the rest of their body.

 

If they were just skeletons, they'd look ALOT thinner.

You bring up a good point Domarius. I think it would be really cool to see a Haunt being almost completely skeletal...with rotten old clothes and rusting cracked armor.

Yeah, and why do they use swords? If they are dead Hammerites, shouldn't they be using hammers?

[New Horizon]

I heard an explanation for the swords somewhere, can't recall the location, but it had something to do with them being ressurected by...less than holy means. The Hammer, being a holy symbol, would most likely repell them. I think that was the reason for them using the swords.
