Description An illustration from earlier in this gallery. I was waiting for someone to call me back, but it didn't happen. This is what I did during the time I was waiting.

You know, sometimes I really like to do this silhouetted artwork. It's very different from my usual hyper-rendered stuff you'll see at [link] but it's very fun. Whereas my recent deviations on here have been all Photoshop, "Defeat" was done with brush and India ink a few years back. Now it is colored. Voila!

Some people have said the robot doesn't fit because of the difference in styles between him and his oppressor. Personally, I like mixing styles. As an artist, you can draw whatever you want. You can have Super Mario in a triple threat battle with Spawn and Optimus Prime if you want.

In fact, maybe that will be my next doodle! Buahaha...

I agree with what you said about artistic freedom.
I personally try to spread my artistic-ness into a broad range of styles.

On a side note, i thought that the angle of the "oppressor's" visible eye made him look sad or remorseful. I don't know if that's what you were going for or not, that's just what I thought.

i think the robot fits ~ it's kind of neat to see a robot suffering --

the only reason the robot may seem out of place is because he's so completely colored -- maybe shade his arms more? or not, i think it's damn cool as is.

Others said the robot was too cartoony to be included in this illustration. I don't have a problem with it at all. I may have to warm up the colors on his one shoulder, though. I was using yellow highlights, but somehow I got a weird bluish spot. Oh well, it's just a sketch.
