Description
Well ya, what the title says. This is the version of the image I did on the computer, it started as an test and turned into a LOT of work, it was worth it though. I used a real anatomy chart to get the position of the veins, they didn't look good any other way.This image was about 10 layers before I compressed the base color and shading. the texture for everything is on a different layer.
I was hesitant to post this because of the amount of work and detail I put into it, but then I realized that this image is only 12.5% of the original image wich was well over 4000 pixles high and put my computer through hell everytime I saved. It was 160mb in PSD format. the image won't save for web at full size, my PC wich has a gig of ram still can't handel the whole thing.
anyway, I also stretched the legs out when I did this one, they seemed stuby so I lengthend them.
the details look better when it's big, and this is going to be printed on big paper.
Tell me what you think, I spent a long time on it.
P.S. Jpeg had the colors for breakfast, even though it was on 100% quality.

Thats quite good. I would say his wings were a lil off though, as they look too muscler and can give off a first impression that he has four arms. Oo; His stomach looks a lil disfigured too, but thats IMO. I still say its a great pic.

Thanks for the comment. His wings are supposed to be muscular enough to be able to fly, so I bulked them up.
His stomach looks off? how so? I'd like to know so I can fix it next time, but if your talking about the bulge between his legs, thats actualy part of the muscle structure for his legs. his stomach is higher up

It just looks odd. I cant desribe it good how to fix it though. It just looks a bit weird from that angle.
