Hi man, glad you like!

Not photobashed, I'm not proficient enough in photoshop to do that   I thought it was pretty obvious it's actually just one photo I painted the characters upon. It's a fun exercise trying to make the characters match the pre-existing lighting.
This was at first triggered as a "quick" sketch for the WSG over on PJ. I initially only painted Guile, and then felt the need to add some kind of storytelling. I had an idea of the scene I wanted to portray, so I looked up a bar in google, and used it as a quick background. I then manipulated it, adjusted Guile ( ie repainted some parts) so he fitted the lighting of the scene, and then I painted in the rest of the crew. I've started doing that a little as an exercise: trying to integrate new elements in existing photos. This can be done in a stylized or realistic way (like a matte painting), in all cases it makes one understand a lot about lighting. For instance, there's a french guy called Didier Cassegrain who does these great images of cartoony women inside mundane photos, it's really cool.
