Hi #PortfolioDay! I'm Kianga and I create fantasy 3D art - most of my personal art involves my #charr warband from #GuildWars2.

Tiny warrior (he'll be fierce and strong one day!)
A very smol Kianga, for the prompt "nurture" from my patron Tabra. Thank you for your support! π§‘
A Frost Legion version of Kernas Schi, based on a previous sculpt. Less fluffy, but still handsome!

"The charr have a tradition with whiskey that's almost as old as that with war - the former is much more pleasant though! I recently had the privilege of visiting one of our finest breweries, Fifth Legion Whiskey in Lion's Arch."
Scene for my patron Warrick, based on the prompt "tradition" and referencing a short story he wrote a while ago. Thank you for both! π§‘
"Need a head bashed in?"

I had a lot of fun modeling the Genesis hammer, Garro's signature weapon. Thank you Tabra for the commission!
3D bust of Ranok from the fantasy visual novel "Far Beyond the World" by Kael_Tiger on Twitter.
I love Kael's art style and characters and wish him all the best for his project - check it out here: https://echoesofarcane.itch.io/farbeyondtheworld

It was a pleasure working on your charr, thank you for the commission! π§‘
Well, this has been a year.
Thank you for the kind support and encouragement, and I wish you all a happy new year 2021! Please stay safe and healthy!
One of my favorite moments in battle is gliding down from high above - gives you a whole new perspective on the battlefield.

For the prompt "perspective" from my patron Warrick Ashblood. Thank you for your support!
For the prompt "Wintersday tree" from Coffee Kitten: Don't just decorate the tree, BECOME the tree.
Kianga and Bruce wish you happy holidays - and thank you for all the support and encouragement this year! π

It was a real pleasure working with his design, and I hope you like him too! Thank you for the commission!
Credit for the Binding of Ipos book (original design by ArenaNet) goes to my partner Keeya, who let us use his model for the rendered scene:

Blood Legion Armor - Legionnaire Outfit
A full set of Blood Legion armor for my charr warrior, based on a custom design by Wilderwuff (guildwufftwo on Twitter).
I don't have much experience with armor modeling and design yet, and having concept art to work with has been invaluable. Thank you so much, Wuff!
This is for the legionnaire rank; there will also be separate outfits for the soldier and centurion ranks.
"If you think I can fight, wait till you see me dance."
Reeva was chosen in last month's Patreon poll. Took a bit longer than intended as I'm still struggling with female charr faces, but after seeing her painted I think it's reasonably close? Hope you like her!

Peak Performance
An experimental scene - I find it refreshing to try something stylized once in a while. With Kianga this usually means VERY RED. πΌ
Animation commission for Tabra! π€
Unlike my sculpted busts, Garro has paws and he's not afraid to use them.
Sculpted bust for Sayna Jaye of her wonderful soft gentle giant charr, Teklau Darkwrench. Thank you for the commission! π

Significant Otter! π¦¦
Thanks to my partner Keeya for the final otters - those little buggers took forever to collect.
A trained warrior isn't just a formidable opponent on the battlefield, their banners also inspire alliesβand they're great for parties! π
