Artist's Comments

It's a dude with a helmet... FOR A FACE lol no

Sure must be hard for him to see with that bronze-y thing hanging right in front of his eyes though. Maybe he's blind and doesn't care.

...Yeah that's totally it. I'm allowed to make this up on the spot because I totally made him up on the spot a few hours ago and I can do whatever I want with him AH HA HA HA HA HA yup.

(Markers make me a bit loopy. But DAMN are they fun to use. Scan doesn't do this one justice x1000.)

Texture is from `tExTuReMaTtIc :B

That looks great. Really great.


I've been wanting to buy some markers for a while but they're a bit pricy.

The shading on the metal looks really awesome.

Markers have a tendancy to do that. It's really bad when your sense of smell dies on you and forget that markers give off fumes until you start to get light-headed.

Yeah, that's the trouble with them... I love markers and the effects they can achieve, but for the really nice blending effects, you need to get a LOT of them.

If you want to try markers out, I'd suggest starting with one of the cheaper brands-- Promarker or Touch. Just get one or two of each primary hue (one dark and one light), plus maybe a couple of skintones if you know you'll want to colour people, and practice for awhile on simple drawings that you're not afraid to muck up. That's pretty much how I got started. (:

Why thank you. (I only used one marker for the grey portions ._. I'd meant to go over it with a second one but I TOTALLY FORGOT because it looked okay with just the single coat. .....Wow I totally didn't even realize that I'd forgotten until just now)

IN OTHER NEWS I think I passed that point at least two hours ago <_< >_>

I think a second coat would have killed it.

Ahahah, I always have that happen. My sense of smell fails on an epic level. It's worse when you're using rubber cement. Go open a window! De-marker your head.

Open the bloody window, Thane, or else your brain will die by marker. I think that's slightly ironic, death by your medium...
