Description
Please full view'Metal Gear Solid 3 : Snake Eater' for the PS2 is prolly my fave game at the moment, so it's to be expected that I'd wanna draw up some fanart. I was expecting I'd draw Raikov, but no I ended up drawing Snake himself.
My first time colouring in photoshop CS, as opposed to 5.5 which I usually use. I feel more comfortable with 5.5, CS is weird and awkward and I hate it >= P However, I love the way you can make your own brushes, with different angles and stuffies^^ The skin pores, hair some of the leaves and even the crosshatching on the cloth, were all brushes I made specifically for this pic.
Originally, I'd drawn the whole of the background in full, sharp detail; So it was a shame when I finished and realised how wrong it looked, and that it needed blurring.
That's the Woodland facial camouflage he's waring, not me attempting to draw some kind of weird lighting effect. I hope it doesn't look like that

An absolutely fantastic effort, but were you paying attention at the end? That guy isn't Snake - that's the guy from whom both Solid and Liquid Snake were cloned (see MGS2 for clarification). Awesome game, and an incredible work. Don't let my pedantic ways distract you from how great this is.

Thanks for the compliments^^ But, big fat _Spoiler_ there (and following) for anyone who hasn't played the game yet ; But he is still Snake, even if he's not the snake we know from MGS1 and MGS2. His codename in the game is still Snake, you could say he was the original Snake, and that Liquid and Solid are just clones.

Really nice effect with the custom brushes you did! Mayhaps you could use a combination of 5.5 and CS - do most of hte piece in 5.5 and then import it into CS to do detailwork and additional brushwork. I would think since they're both photoshop versions that you'd be able to take an older version into a newer one

Thank you ^_^ Yes, I've been considering that - I think I may do that in the future if I can't manage to get to grips with CS. With this picture, I really wanted to try to bully myself into learning the newer software, so I didn't want to cave in and return to 5.5.

Holy cow! Ive never even played the games, but this is just..... awesome! ><;
I actually like how the background blurs as it goes into the distance. Kinda like.. how you would look at something, right? The background isnt as in focus :3
I almost wanna play that game now... >.>

Thanks ^_^ You really should, it's an awesome game! Although it takes a bit of getting used to when you play a Metal Gear game for the first time, and people who don't like it are usually the ones that give up after just a few hours; so if you do get it, stick with it, it's worth the learning curve.
