Description
... is his mother.My first ever digital painting.
For a first attempt, I have to admit, I'm pleased as punch!
It took three evenings... probably about 10 hours off and on. I was tweeting and doing things at the same time, so it's hard to judge. Also it's drawn on Photoshop... on one layer.
Psycho has been my favorite film since I was 14 years old. I still love it, though I grew out of quoting it all the time long ago.
I always wanted to draw Anthony Perkins as Norman and well, now I have! I really did not expect my first digi-painting to turn out looking anything like him!

EDIT - Sorted out his right eye, which was bugging me.

XD You're welcome. 8D
XD I agree. Though I think they ruined it with the ungodly amount of sequels. D8

Well three sequels. They were itching for Hitchcock to die to make them.
I think they shouldn't have been made, btu as I'm such a Psycho nut I'll watch 2 and 3, but I keep them seperate from the first movie. In fact a lot of people think the second film is great. The third one I like cause it's silly. But the fourth is complete bollocks. They mess with the original story too much and contradict things Norman says in the first movie.

Oh shit, really? D8
XD I get ya. I love silly movies. 8D
But the last one made no sense either, 'cause it's his beginning...And the actor is old... XD

Have you seen them? I'm asking cause you've only just seen the first. The last one is done with flashbacks.

I have to be honest, the scene that really scared the crap out of me in the whole movie was the sight of his rotted corpse of a mother. Damn f***ing scary scene!

An original scary, great wtf moment in cinema history
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah...outside of the often-parodied slasher-in-the-shower scene.

Well that's not a wtf moment. That's just a horror one.
