Description
Time Taken: 120 MinutesSoftware: Photoshop
Based on: Kyle Reese, played by Michael Biehn in The Terminator (1984) - Reference
Fun thing about this one is it uses only one brush, a smoke brush I created. Shrunk down it gives a reasonable pastel effect, and when large, well, it looks like smoke.

One of my favourites of yours. You've totally captured the feel and atmosphere of The Terminator.

That's a great compliment, thanks O'. The Terminator is dripping in an atmosphere than none of it's sequels (even the excellent T2) ever really captured again.

Indeed, you are right. It's an atmosphere of claustrophobia and desperation and, in a way, squalor. Fantastic film, fantastic art!

That's a good way of putting it. For me it's a much more mechanical and industrial film, like diesel and oil to T2's neon and chrome (this despite T2 ending in a steel mill).

Wonderful art. Oh, I for one misses the 80´s. Or at least some of it´s charm.
Perhaps one day I will catch myself saying the same about the now we live in

I think every era has both charms and unpleasantness. History is often kind, so we remember the good things more than the bad, so I think you're right, while we may not see it now, in years to come people will probably love this decade just as much as the 80's
Thanks for the compliment, I'm very glad you like it.

Yeah, that was a nice surprise as the brush was really only intended for use on the background
