Description
Full-view for details.Created from sketch to finish in Photoshop7
Ive been dying to do a sci-fi monster piece for a long time now and this one has elements that ive been trying to incorporate into a composition for a long time.
I glanced at a few photos of various abandoned factories, camcorders and CDC biohazard suits for accuracy's sake, in addition to several close-up stills of a couple 80's horror movies used to get the expression I wanted for the foreground victim.
Thank you in advance for coming by my gallery - comments are always welcome.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did drawing it.

Im glad you think so, thanks!
Ill help in anyway I can, just ask.
What I cant offer are shortcuts and fancy tricks. I work hard, I work for a long time, I sacrifice things in my life so I can draw.
Dedicate yourself; honestly ask yourself if your willing to hurt to get better, if your really willing to sacrifice what it takes to get better.
When everyone else goes out on dates, plays games and parties are you willing to stay home and draw your ass off?
Ask yourself those things and then youll know where you stand and what to do next.

tis very awesome and has a scary feel to it
just one question - how come does the camera show a picture of the monster and the place being flooded with water when there isn't any water there at all? Is it showing what the men can see, but we can't? Or something all together different?

Theres no water in the scene my friend, thats an interrupted signal and static from the camcorder getting whipped around.

in the screen, it doesn't show any water, it's just that distorted effect like you see in some old tv's or when the connection to the monitor is not ok

The guy in the suit looks like Tom Hanks. Is that intentional?

I don't know why I never favorited this, I love this piece. SO creepy!
It reminds me quite a bit of playing 'Dead Space' at night, by myself, in the dark, listening to the main character's breathing as he walked around and tense thinking about the next mutant to jump at me from the shadows.

Ohhh, I have this game, albiet it still shrink-wrapped from christmas because ive had no time to play it, I hear its really scarey and awesome so im looking forward to it!
I love that you get a creeped out vibe from it and that it conjures those kinds of memories, thats an incredibly cool compliment to get, its all about creating that immersive experience for me and to know that I succeeded is really inspiring, thanks very much!
