I am wondering this myself.

Very impressive!

[wassermelone]

Holy crap davi!

That is just plain inspired!

this priest's daughter likes playing with his sacred headgear.

brawstake: nice! the priest, anyway, not sure about the girl in there though. she seems a bit too 'french tart' to me. :)

all the best.

[smithb7]

I finally got a new webspace, so from now one, my dsg posts should show up... Stupid geocities. I hope this doesn't seem to reminiscent of earlier posts on this thread. I couldn't think of much to do uniquely. This is more just a practice of comic book style.

Wow.. Great stuff today! keep em comin! :D

[illcap]

I'm gonna paint this.

More of a mummy than a priest. The best I've seen so far is MIKE's... nice job.

didn't finish as you can see :o

Just something simple, a break from BW.

illcap: I hope you do, It looks good.

MIKECORRIERO: Good one, he looks very priestly,
but why is he holding a christian cross?, It's confusing since you
have a description of the eye of horus.

[skvv]

oddly enough , i saw a thing on the history channel about 2 hours before this was posted and it said that all priests were bald.

[Skank]

just a quick mention, egyption priests regularly plucked, and or shaved every hair on their bodies....EVERY hair...

kinda freaky..

wednesday: nice feel to it, good job
mikecorrio: wow that absolutely kicks ass! great effort into developement!
brawkstake: awesome posing!
davi: unexplainably cool. :)

i went bonkers on this one, spent a good 2 hours on it ( i know shame shame), but I've never been able to do anything anime style before, but I think this was a nice step (again i know anime shame shame) so here it be:

inspiration from a song: juno reactor - god is god.
**UPDATE**

Slapped on a coloring job that I thought fit the style.

really great stuff today
nike - something very fragile about the hands
davi - wow
mikecorriero - the cross really doesn't belong, but i still like it
beatnik - he's got character;)

[SABRE]

HI GUYS, HERE ITS MY EGYPTIAN PRIEST, SUMMONING TO ANUBIS!!!

http://img6.photobucket.com/albums/v19/SABRE/egipt_copy.jpg


WELL...

OU REVOIR.........................

[Idiot Apathy]

Yeah on with the funk, as in man I really messed around today. Bear with me, I may be working really odd in the next few days, time to experiment.

Based off a real Egyptian priest's sarcophagus-

Wanted to show you a bit of a close up, just to see how funky it is-

http://img3.photobucket.com/albums/v13/Ragnarok27/upclosesample.jpg

Photoshop today, messing with a homemade brush and some texture that was lying around.

Looking great everyone! Adios, the idiot.

[Justorama]

Drawn in pencil, scanned and cleaned up, coloring now. any pointers on paiting stuff in photoshop would be great, i feel like all my stuff is always partially transparent...maybe its supposed to be that way.

@davi: wow great concept!

[Wystro]

I liked doing the research for this topic *hugs Google*

http://sparkles295.tripod.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/egyptpriest.jpg

[WildSpruceMoose]

Alrighty. I was subconsciencely inspired by Hunger_Artist I suppose. I went a bit too sloppy for my liking though. I was trying subtle introduction of red into greens etc. I don't think it really worked much :(
I misused some of the brushes near the ground too, but here it is. I had to participate tonight no matter what :D

[Wundergeek]

First time in a couple days I haven't been too drugged to sketch something. I used reference for the costume.

http://www.pbtteam.com/dump/egyptpriestsm.jpg

mike: You blow my mind, man.

davi: You can do that while sick? I envy you.

illcap: love that pose

wednesday: Says so much with so little...

phantom_head: looks a bit uncomfortable. :)

justorama: why am I reminded of easter island heads?

wystro: obviously we used the same reference. :D

good stuff!

[Rho]

http://home.comcast.net/~dbowen113/29by12by03.jpg

Eh. I got too involved in the face and didn't leave enough time to do the head dress. Used a mirror for a ref.

[davi]

Thanks all, the texture was done with painter8 papers. I actually only used a single paper for it, you can find out how to make papers and you can also download my papers here:

http://www.conceptart.org/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=15746

and yeah i was sick... stomach flu.. I think all the naps i had have made it go away... at least to a degree.

[bkmini]

here's my priest. I've been doing a lot of guys holding staffs lately, so my priest is an ass-kicker with a sword.

http://www.bradkurz.com/priest_sm.jpg

this was also my first experiment with painter. Do you guys notice any change in my painting style? I think it is a little looser...

Anyways, great work today everyone.

Glad you're feeling better, davi.

[tumbra]

Hope my link is up. I'll add some color later.

[asbestoshazard]

Looks like a lot of neat stuff...mine's really just a sketch I fired off in painter; seems kinda...cartoony? I started mish-mashing a bunch of concepts together.

http://asbestoshazard.com/art/sketch%20031229%20priest.JPG

Davi :: You never cease to amaze...especially creepy and very mystic
MIKECORRIERO :: Amazing attention to detail
Railboy :: Looks good and dead, good achievement
Wednesday :: Like a jackal? I like the contrast in color.
phantom_head :: Again, love the contrast in colors
SABRE :: He looks almost drunk in mystical powers, that open...laugh.
Rho :: The cracked stone looks great, like an ancient relic

[scumworks]

really good ones today, though I must say scrolling down the page, davi's gave me quite a shocker! DAGM GOOD!

[sushiboy]

I started posting in the DSG a while ago, but only did 4 sketches, I'm deciding to start up again because I won't get better at any of my art unless I practice so.... here's my egyptian priest:

http://home.graffiti.net/sushiboy:graffiti.net/art/egyptian_priest.jpg

It's fairly plain, I'm really not used to painter classic at all, kinda n00b, but I like it. Nice work everyone, there is a lot of eye candy in this thread!

[avalos]

davi-- nice results with the paper technique, quite intriguing
bkmini-- yep, sure looks like an "ass-kicker", good work
Rho-- I like the textures, both foreground and back

Did not delve too much into the priest aspect; at a lost today (spent most of the time making a cake).

no reference,

A very bland posture of a funky priest :boring: ... just trying to keep up this dsg

I love yours davi, man that saweet...

Okay, let's try this again. Had to change to a different image server since the one I usually use is down for maintainance.
