So, which interpretation of the upside-down cross should I use?

Great line work. And the coloring job gives it a really cool look.

Yeah, although, come to think of it, I don't know a dentist who would come near him...

*shoves her face into the monitor* .....yyyyyyyep. I see the inspiration.

Lemme see here...

I like the technique here. It almost has a "just-complete-enough" look to it. Or something...

The pose I'm not so sure about. It's clear that he's leaning forward and resting his hand on his face (or maybe even vice versa. hee hee.) ... but the other arm seems to be...missing. But maybe that's just because he's got it back? I'd think it'd look a bit more right if his shoulder were a bit more up, so that maybe it could trick us into thinking his other arm is laid across his lap?



I dunno. XD

VanHeist In reply to Doomfool [2006-04-25 05:17:37 +0000 UTC]

maybe the pose would make more sense if he was wiping something from his face, like blood or something. i ran over this one in the mirror as i went and the front arm mostly works but yeah....the back one....it gets kinda lost in the shuffle and makes things a little awkward. The whole pose is kind of a slack, gangly off-kilter shoulder pose which is tricky to pull off.

thanks for the good criticism

Sweet, i wonder what he just saw to pull that expression.... a small kitton....a cosplayer....only he will know...
Love his face, reckon you could do with a little more detail in the hair, but i'm obsessed with hair so thats just my preference.

aren't we all god's children? of course, some of us are whipped and beaten and sometimes orphaned or disowned, but....okay, crummy analogy. i've always taken the more "realistic" theory of vampires, that they probably don't give a damn about crucifixes or garlic or any of that stuff. A golden cross necklace might just be a fashion statement, like it is for so many regular humans

that and it's upside-down. he may be trying to make a different statement altogether

SWEEET!
He looks pretty nasty and with an ugly ugly temper. I liked the colors you used on him, these blues and greys fits very well endeed, I tend to paint them..humm very white, maybe I'll try blues next time
The backround looks awesome and the way his nose is done and the notorious line on his upper lip makes him look even more feral or animalistic than normal vamps... pretty interesting.

glad you like i loved the feral look of some of your vampires and wanted to make something the same. but i also like an amphibious kind of undead blue for the color...it seems appropriate for something that slinks around at night in the dark....big eyes and slimy pale skin

JadeGL In reply to VanHeist [2006-04-25 06:39:24 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, you're right about the color concept. Is pretty similar to a coversation I had with a friend once about how vamps should smell, I was of the idea they shouldn't smell preciselly... fine.. more near to smelling of blood and this because on Anne Rice books vamps doesn't smell.. I can't agree with that XP

You have a real knack for getting the eyes down pat. They truely are the keystones to the personality of the charecter.
