I was mucking about on photoshop the other day and came up with theese. they were all done in no more than 30-45 mins and where just straight off the bat, nothing more than doodles to kill some time really. dont really like this one but they're all good practice I suppose.
I quite liked the way this was going and will probably do a proper paint along the lines of this one day.

Just added a bit of colour. Dont know why he's wearing jungle camo while everything else is black and white, he sticks out like a sore thumb. Maybe he has come through the jungle to reach his target, yeah thats it.....

Theres parts of this picture I really like. It dont really show up on here but I tried to paint the skin and the material textures and they came out alright.
added a real quick background.








Interesting character 2.

Been working on an interesting character. The inspiration for this chap came from some guy I saw on my way home walking through town. The guy in question was, for want of a better word a "chav" but he had a sort of swagger and attitude that was crying out to be transplated into the body of a disheveled, drug addled rock star. So after a few sketches I painted the portrait below which I'm not completely happy with but it gets the attitude across ok i reckon. I then went on to paint the full character. I quite like this image. From these images I have started to sculpt the character. its still a work in progress but i think its coming along ok.
