Description
Just another typical evening on the skyline of Brickstown.A commission for ~BasiliskXVIII featuring a whole host of his creations - from the left, going clock-wise, and all that we have Rock-Hopper, Corvus Corax, Dark Basilisk, Caesura, Ascella, and Shadowlisk.
He was looking for a slightly epic fight between a team of his heroes and their villain counterparts to be faught out in Brickstown. After a good bit of mucking around, getting too caught up in the city and losing the characters, and losing the painting to one of Painters infamous crash-while-saving-so-the-whole-file-is-corrupted, I finally turned this piece out. It took a touch longer then i would have liked, but I think it was worth it for the end result.
As a quick note, I reckon it should be pointed out that Rock-Hopper's (the bird looking guy with the beak) mask was designed by *JTran218 on his work dealing with Rock-Hopper.
medium: er, light?

Thank you very much! And I would agree, hard to do and, oddly enough, I didn't realize it at the time. But looking back on the painting, I haven't been able to match it's layout again.

Holy freak bud, this is the best ting I've seen come out of your brush - and that's saying a lot.
You really outdid yourself on this one bud.

Thank you. I'm really digging hatching in city sky lines in this new digital format. Any excuse I can get to do it, and I'm all over it!

Thank you very much! Sadly, it seems to be a depth i haven't been able to duplicate. A happy accident that refuses to be cloned, damn it!

Very epic. You did an outstanding job with this. At first glance I couldn't tell if it was 3-d or actually painted. My hat's off to you sir! *attempts to do a fancy bow while whipping off her top hat and gets off balanced and face plants into the floor*
Omph!

Wow, thanks. I have mixed feelings about confusing for a rendering (hopefully it's not too stiff) but I reckon, in the end, it's a damned good thing

No, not too stiff at all! I meant the three dimensional look of it. The lighting and the shadows make the figures really stand out, I feel like I could touch them.

I said it when you e-mailed me the finished version, and I'll say it again: You have completely outdone yourself on this piece. The detail is amazing, and each character is addressed.
Positively awesome, thanks.

As always, you are welcome! I'm glad it's what you were wanting... or something more which, nine times out of ten, is a good thing.

Jebus, yes, some claim he is their lord and savor, some state he was only a great man, while others are quick to point out that there's no proof that he ever lived. Homer would disagree, but that's beside the point.

Simply... wow.
This is awesome. I love your digital painting style. This has a lot more color and pop then your usual style, but it looks great. The details are fantastic!
Insta-fav!

hanks! Well, considering my usual style involves watercolor (a notoriously non-popping medium... it's soft and defused

Dude. Epicly awesome.
Seriously, some of my favorite work I've seen for you. I know, I know, I'm a sucker for that heavy color saturation, but still... Just fantastic man.

You're a sucker for heavy color?! Why the hell are you watching me then?
Thank you!
