fangirl4eva [2010-11-21 02:35:35 +0000 UTC]

I like the poignancy and darkness of the quote and how you used the orange glow of the fire to highlight the main character of the story. Great work!

He looks alot like an american actor. The guy who plays Chandler's new roomate for an episode of Friends (the psycho). Great painting BTW.

EPIC. Love that, kinda makes you think about what happened around you in history on the spot where you go camping.

Like, in Tennessee, I will never go into the woods or on the old battlefields at night... too many angry spirits.

eh, was probably painted too roughly and too quickly.
It's a rather sketchy meaningless assignment piece.

The colouring and the amount of detail in this is amazing! I love the one live fella's grin, it makes the picture so surreal. Was the guy on the bottom's head taken off or something? It kind of looks like it.

where could I find info/ preview of it?

I can't find anything about it on Ebay, Amazon, Wikipedia, Google, Yahoo, Altavista, Dogpile.

If It's not on any of them, I've lost all other information sources.

I love all of your work dude but I can see that your anatomy skills are kind of lacking. I am not saying that I am the best or anything I am far from it but I have taken enough classes that I can kind of tell that you could really benefit from some life drawing classes. I don't want to to be offended or anything I just want to get better and improve. ^^
