Description My girlfriend had a portfolio due for school, and i volunteered to do the art for some points she was trying to illustrate.
I did 4 images in 2 days o.0 Was tight but i got it all done in the end! only 2 were coloured though

I tried a new technique for this painting, where i painted the characters in greyscale, then added colour over top. I think it worked out okay, and was at least fun to try!

Photoshop CS2
approx 10 hours
no reference

This is absolutely amazing. I really like your technique. The textures used really add a nice aspect to the painting.

Odysseus looks fantastic. Very epic!
