I'm having a hard time trying to figure out who's hand that belongs to at the bottom (we all know the middle-finger one at the top is Todd's XD), but that other one ...x3
I've stared at this pic for at least 30 minutes and I can't tell if it belongs to Kyle, Ken, or Roxy XD

I'm fairly sure my intention was that it belongs to Kyle. However, based on it's placement, it might as well be shared between Kyle and Ken, which sound pretty cool.

Yeah, it does sound pretty cool that way, especially since the Twins are practically 'linked' together. .It just sucks really bad that there isn't much backstory on them, and they are my favorites.
(And proves I'm a big fan of SP series as it is)
Now that I think about it, there aren't too many pics of Gigadeon (or the Twins) on DA O.o, and that's just sad -_-. It really needs to be more of them.
Okay, I'm off topic now ^_^;. This drawing itself is strikingly amazing and so 3D It actually looks so real. What program did you use to make it and how long did it take you to create such masterpiece?

I used a combination of Zbrush, 3ds Max, and Photoshop. Overall, it probably took me about 3 weeks of work.
I always love to choose topics that nobody else really touches. Gigadeon was the prime candidate.

I see. I used to use Photoshop to draw my CG style drawings, but I haven't done it for years and I lost my touch on drawing, unfortunately. And 3 weeks sure sounds like a long time X3, but I can see it was worth the result of an amazing picture here~
Are you gonna draw anything else soon?

This picture is an entire 3D scene, so it took that long to complete because I had to model and texture every little thing you see.
I don't really have any plans to work on any other Scott Pilgrim stuff in the near future, but who knows, inspiration could strike.

Oh Mon Dieu! This is amazing! Gigagideon looks even more powerful than he ever was before! (Even though he's the same :3) Excellent work on the 3rd-Dimensional modeling & perspective! It looks real!

And, also, thanks for the DA Point! I have now reached my arbitrary point pool. It is time to celebrate.

Now THIS is epic. I've played through the game many times, and you did a spectacular job recreating this scene! I can't stop imagining the epicness if that game was actually in 3D now...

was this made with digit models, and if so do you still have them?

If by "digit" models you mean 3D models, yeah, I still have them. [link]

I have an obligation to tell you how amazing I think this picture is. I'm a big fan of the Scott Pilgrim franchise, and this pic sums up a lot of the emotions in that series really well. Thanks so much for sharing it with us!

nice pic, really eye catching. hate to sound ignorant here, but i haven't played the scott pilgrim games or read the manga, only watched the movie. if this is the second-to-last boss, then who's the last boss?

GaryStorkamp In reply to stiffbonez [2013-01-02 15:10:43 +0000 UTC]
Thanks.
This is a subconscious boss fight. A symbolic, conquer-your-fears situation.
The final boss reverts back to a real fight with normal Gideon. [link]

Yeah, I believe the developers of the game were fans of Akira. [link]

Wow!! This turned out really cool I love the way its all white/pink and fleshy and the textures really pull it together as one creature with cloth and skin. I see the way you did a play on the game's "do it for love" and the fact that its for a charity marathon haha. Great work!

He's much more intimidating in this interpretation than he ever was in the game. Heh.
If you like comedies, stylish movies, and video game references, definitely check out the movie.
If you liked River City Ransom and awesome music, check out the game.
