Slagar the Cruel

Okay finally finished this. I decided to try rendering out that redesign I made the other day. This ended up taking a lot longer than it should have. For one, I accidentally did most of the painting at a small resolution and had to up-res and repaint a lot of it. I keep doing that for some reason. I also had a lot of trouble getting the lighting right. I was thinking of the sun too much as a spotlight and forgot about how much ambient lighting would be around him. I also tried adding some heat waves to the background, but couldn't get them to look noticeable. Hope you guys like it!
