I do like the staff, but the head of it is very confusing. At first, I must confess, I thought it was a gasmask. \then a horse. I assume its a sort of Seahorse design?
I cannot claim to be a fan of the cape, however. It looks too thick, like its made of jelly as oppsoed to fabric. The lefthand shoulder piece is also very simple and doesn't mesh well with the heroes natural curves.
All in all, its not a bad set, but here is plenty of room for improvement.
edit: what i meant was they are not easy to read as a set

Another important thing is to make people understand what is going on in the set.fer exemple take each piece separatly and think why you make it like this,what does that means.In this case i have no ideea what you aimed with the staff,is like a wierd sea horse ,with flat white spikes behind him? Also the cape is so thick ,you can't even tell is a cape if you wouldn't post a pic with rubick wearing it.The shoulder got a silence image ,but rubick don't have a silence at all.This is what i mean,try to make thing a bit clear and imagine the whole thing as a regular player that don't do items,think why would you want to buy that set? it looks good? it's an interesting ideea? both?
For begining i highly recomand you study other artist work,to see how each person addapt their style to the game and after try doing stuf in your own way.There are thousand of good 2d artist that you can leard from and if you beggin with a good concept ,with practice you'll get the 3d too,you just need to make things properly
curious prime omagus set:
omagus prime. head
oamgus nomad. back
omagus ultra. shoulder
omagus carousel. weapon
your feedback is very important. thank you!
However, the head, whilst still beign a lovely design, still doesn't fit Rubick IMO. But, I'm willing to let that slide.
The main problem is that the set doesn't feel cohesive. What's the running theme? What ties them all together? What does a transformer style head have to do with a seahorse staff and silence pauldrons? None of it seems to work together.
about the scepter: I made the first version as a mix of lizard horse and seahorse, second version has normal maps. looks more like a horse. I did the seahorse variation just for request. I'm still not sure wich one to use or even try a new sci-fi revamp on the horse head.
I tried to repeat elements along the set parts to bring more coherence. still not finished with the shoulder and not sure if I can use this staff or make new one...
