Description
"War has changed. When the battlefield is under total control... ...war becomes routine." - Old Snake, MGS4This is the collab pic that my buddy and I were working on. He did most of the line art while I did the coloring and the "flashbacks." Yeah... why the Gekko reminded him of Ocelot is beyond me. Maybe he's remembering the prime target, and his past experiences with him?
Anyways, hope you guys enjoy!

Thanks! This was actually the first collab I have ever done with . Part of it was painstaking, but most of it was really fun!
The Metal Gear series have been one of my favourites since the ending of high school. The first three games were mostly about stealth, but Metal Gear Solid 4 have been a mix of stealth AND heavy combat.

Hehehe, it is definitely worth a try, but I'd play Metal Gear Solid 1 or 3 first because those warm you up on the stealth gameplay and the story itself. (3's a prequel.)

Sweet! Gekkos are cool, though out of all the metal gears to pick from, I'd have to go with Rex. Gekkos are a close second though. ^..^

Heheh, thanks!
I always loved REX, but the Gekko's always got on my nerves during the end of the 2nd Act. Nonetheless, they're pretty cool.

DUDE!!! FREAKIN' EPIC!!!!1111!!1ONE!!!11ELEVEN!!!
Holy Jesus, how'd you DO that!? I could NEVER color like that!!! You are a MASTER!!! You made my crappy Snake and wall and Gekko look AWESOME!!!! It's just...so...GOOD!
Man, thanks again for having me in on this. I really enjoyed it (especially the end result). You just let me know ANY TIME you'd like to collab again!!
...so AWESOME!!!!

Thanks very much, Alex/Angsty! It was a fun collab!
How'd I do it? "...Face camo." Just kidding. I used the MGS4 strategy guide for references on Snake (I loved coloring and shading the suit!) and the Gekko. (Easy for coloring. Sizing and placing... not so much.) I barely had a drawing reference for Ocelot in MGS2, making that flashback tedious. However, I had a reference for REX, so that was easy.
But if you're curious about the coloring method, here's how I mostly did it: [link] [link]
And thanks again for the support in the collab! Who knows? Maybe I'll think of another collab project!

awesome!! I'll have to use those tutorials some time! But there's no way I could ever top the master. You made that suit perfect.
And like I said, when ever you think of one, you just let me know!

Anytime! Glad the tutorials will be of some use!
I love the suit... I'm so glad Snake wore it in MGS4...
I sure will!

Yes, hi and all of that what-not
Also, I know it's strange to ask, but could you stop thanking me for complimenting your art? It makes me want to say your welcome, but then I think that that might be rude, so then I just get confused

JonCausith In reply to BlueMario [2008-10-03 19:33:56 +0000 UTC]
...okay. I don't see how saying "you're welcome" would be rude. (Truthfully: "Don't mention it," sounds more rude than "Any time," "No problem," and/or "You're welcome.")

I dunno. I go into this like "contradictory mood" sometimes. It's when all of the contradictions I've heard just go WHAM! right int my face
