I dont know all of Anet's official artwork to say Nith's is just a copy though, since it does resemble the typical balthazar pose found on his murals and statue.

@Nith47: Thank you for following the rules on using reference images. Eheh,well that too maybe,but my conenction really sux so it accidently posted same message 3 times -.-!
And if nith47s drawing is not original becouse balthazar is in the same pose as the statues,if thats what you mean,then i guess mine (which im working on,ok will be working on ) is not original too couse he aswell stands with longsword in his hands...
...but i must remind you longsword is essencial for balthazar as manual says...tradition

No there is nothing wrong with your piece. Continue as you've been doing. While using a point of reference you have made something unique. Your entry is perfectly valid.

gah, thats no good, shouldn't worry about beating anyone, just do it for fun and to show off how you picture grenth (or any other of the gods)
i really enjoy seeing all the guild wars fan art that people do, i love that people care enough to devote such time and effort to art that we all as a community can appreciate

NinjaKai
Anything prior can stay as is.

^_^ from guild wiki:
"Lyssa is usually portrayed in her natural state; a pair of twain, intertwined goddesses, no illusions or glamours involved. There are stories of young men stopping to gaze longingly at statues of the beautiful goddesses, only to forget themselves and die of thirst while simply looking on."
Remember guys... don't forget to drink!

Im posting a preview of mine now so nobody says i jacked greyf0x's idea ;D

"So you see Lyssa #1, when I put on the balthazar mask, that means I'M the daddy"
"Awww but Lyssa #2, you're always the daddy, Why am I always stuck as the ivy wearing one!"
Funny, I was originally thinking of a different pose, in which they both shared one wierd double mask thingy, but I decided on a more classical style pose, after drawing inspiration from the mesmer statues in game.
*changes web page, because the thought of the big scary beard mask on two lovely ladies isn't nice*

Lyssa is my favourite godess too,but i got nice idea for balthazar and i enjoyed drawing him so i decided to focus on one drawing...and i decided balthazar.

Now I need a background, somthing... goddly
Mistical miss
argh, I get so owned on photoshop -.- definately going to be watercolour..
as for the background, something not too clear, perhaps shades of the halls of the gods (end stage tombs/ doppleganger arena) or something purple, to match the picture ...
