Berserker of Arkhan
One of the characters I was tasked with designing was one of Arkhan's minions, a berserker barbarian. Heavy inspiration was taken from Conan the Barbarian. He is one of Joe Manganiello's original characters
I worked with Joe to design him for the adventure, as well as for a special set of miniatures for the game.
Project: D&D Baldur's Gate: Descent Into Avernus
For: Wizards of the Coast
AD: Joe Manganiello
The final design, with warpaint heavily inspired by Conan the Barbarian
The character is a barbarian minion, faceless (in that there are probably many of them, all wearing a dragon-skull mask)
