CG Hub Drawing Jam, The Joust

Deadline: 28th of May 2012

The Joust!
Jousting is a martial sport where historically two riders on horseback run at each other and try to knock the other off with a long stick (A lance if you are picky like that). But what if Jousting was...done on dragons or camels...perhaps on mice by fairies. Any which way for this jam we want an action shot of a joust in challenge. Pull out all the stops, perspective, motion-blur, lens flare...ok maybe not lens flare but you get the idea.

We don't mind what the riders are, or the steeds but they should be running at each other with the intent of knocking the other off with a lance of some description.


Ok, So this will be my first drawing Jam. I already have an idea based on some drawings I completed a while back.

Ok, so this is the sort of look I want to go for. Not sure about the wings yet. I may complete two sketches, on the ground and one in the air. The riders will have an armoured Mass Effect look to them, but I also want them to seem Medieval. The next step is to find some reference images of Jousting.

 I want to keep the Medieval look to my drawing, but change it to make it look much more modern and biotic. I also want to have one of the riders flying off his mount from an electronic pulse of energy from the other rider. Sketches and Ideas to be uploaded soon.
