Artist's Comments

Did this for a friend. Started out while I was working a convention, got bored and he said "Hey, draw Orko." Then when it came time to color it I tried something new, this is one of my first attempts at digital painting.

Whoa, wasn't expecting anyone to actually see my stuff, let alone leave a comment so soon. Thanks! Well the " digital painting" is new to me, but i've been playing around with photoshop for about 7-8 years now.

Oh Orko! I remember him. Long time ago... :)

Killer picture!

Cheers!

Is he a goblin?

Heh, I can see why people always confuse him with black mages.

I love Wikipedia:

Orko is a "Trollan", a race of beings from Trolla, a world in another dimension. Trollans wear red robes, red hats, and hide their faces behind scarves. Apparently, in Trollan society, showing your face to each other is considered an intimate act, similar to humans sharing a kiss. There is a production drawing of Orko without his hat, in which he looks like a little blue elf, but it was never used in the series.

Honestly, Orko was always the comic relief. And I wanted to portray him in a much more powerful way as if he had aged and grown in strength through years of study that turned him slightly darker than he was.

I really really like the pic, by the way. Super cool.
