I'll take all the support I can get! There are a lot of great pieces (my boy made a particularly strog showing, not to mention your kickass pic ), so I can't count anyone out at this point. But congrats on your win, and thanks for the props.

nabichan [2008-03-27 18:37:22 +0000 UTC]

Very nicely done! I wish I could draw the male figure like you do. My men look like little girls. Was this done using traditional media, or Photoshop? It's kind of hard to tell.

Good luck with the competition!

GavinMichelli In reply to nabichan [2008-03-27 18:57:46 +0000 UTC]

Don't feel too bad ... most of my girls look like men Too much He-man when I was a kid, I guess. This pic was drawn in pen and ink ([link] ) then colored in Photoshop. I do most of my coloring at work while I'm on the clock, so I don't do too much traditional media coloring

semaj007 [2008-03-27 11:00:49 +0000 UTC]

this certainly makes your initial lineart almost unrecognizeable! Good job dude! You gotta tell me how to that blood splatter effect!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

GavinMichelli In reply to semaj007 [2008-03-27 15:06:49 +0000 UTC]

The blood splatter is actually a font. It consists of several splatters of different sizes and shapes that I just scattered around, then I did a texture overlay on the whole thing. I don't remember what the font is called, but it's got "splatter" in the name

semaj007 In reply to GavinMichelli [2008-03-27 17:40:36 +0000 UTC]

thanx man! You always have these unique and cool resources! But regardless o d splatter, your coloring brings d piece alive!

Malango [2008-03-27 03:21:49 +0000 UTC]

Wow this is looking great coloured mate. the colours work well together. I love the look of the blade, it's got a nice shine to it. And the blood splat is awesome! heheh

Thanks, Adam! I've always found that buckets of blood and shiny light effects can only make a picture better
