Description
CommissionThis is 'Attacks-First', one of *LINCARD1000 's sci-fi reptilian/demony Vanguard characters. He's attempting to flee from a bunker subject to attack from an orbital particle cannon strike of some sort.
These guys are really cool, and you should check out *LINCARD1000 's gallery and read some of his writing because he can describe what's going on here far better than I just did.
character/species belong to *LINCARD1000 (Title also his courtesy!)
edit: black bars gone, thanks for the crit. I also came to find them distracting.

I love the details work on this, the picture looks very dinamic, and the light/shadow effects are just amazing.
Also love the burning cloth on the creature, so realistic.

This is unbelievably, I'm fascinated by all the minute details and your precise brush strokes. I stare at your work forever sometimes trying to figure out how you do it, but it never comes to me, lol. I'd love to know what program you use and where you get your brushes.

I actually posted a walkthrough for this one ~ [link]
Some of it is brush detailing and some of it is the texture coming through Most of the info on it is in the walkthrough, though I now use adobe CS4 instead of CS2. Some of the brushes I use are linked in there too. Tho I have some I made myself that I use, but they aren't all that fancy.
Thanks for the kind words!

Whoa, this picture is insane! I love the way you shade and color, you seem to have created the perfect setting with your style here. I'll definitely have to look at his gallery, because this picture is really intriguing

Now that's what I call having a very bad day, lol!
Even Michael Bay couldn't possibly dream up action and artistic quality of this caliber. The best part of this is the dynamic color contrast between the reptile, the particle beam, and the exploding bunker. It's about as close to perfection as it could get. Simply stunning!

This is seriously epic. The attention to detail of the action in this is staggering, gotta love those fiery effects. The perspective is amazing!
I love how you drew the claws, deliciously wicked.

I have no idea where to even start with how mindblowing this is.
Following your art for a few years as a lurker, I have to pop up and let you know you've improved in leaps and bounds. Leaps and fucking bounds.
The perspective here is incredible, from both the way he's running toward the viewer and the light bursting through the clouds in the backdrop.
The painting and attention to detail is to die for. No matter how long I stare, there's more to find. Now that's a return on your investment. shitty pun, perhaps
Beautiful work. You are quite the inspiration and you better become a famous concept artist someday.

There are so many superlatives I would like to lay at your feet for this illustration, but they would fail to convey my absolute delight with the way I feel about this.
Remarkable work, surpassing my expectations by a wide margin. Thank you so very much for this - it is simply magnificent <3
One very happy, satisfied commissioner here - you've really done my beastie proud with your own unique touch, and for that I thank you.
