Here he is, the man, the myth, the narrator – Anvilhead (TM) himself. This is the original design intended to be turned into a small tabletop bust of one of the more colorful characters in the Metal Messiah graphic novel.
I wanted him to be larger than life, but essentially demon king of the heshers. He speaks in an on-again-off-again olde-english prose and has a penchant for hyperbole.
I wanted him to seem like the kind of guy who’s cool but gets a little TOO excited.
Did the linework using Adobe Illustrator, but the lines are a little too crisp for me. I don’t think this looks bad and might make it’s way into avatars / stickers / logos but the process helped me determine to do the rest of the book in traditional media!
