Description This is by far the most time-consuming piece I've done. I'm extremely happy with how Colbert came out. I was worried about capturing him, but I think I achieved it. Stewart was a challenge, but I managed to finish him without going crazy.

Three reference pics(one for Stewart's head, one for his body, and one for Colbert) were used. This was all hand-drawn and painted on the computer without tracing or grids. I can happily say I won't be painting any black suits for a while.


Time: on and off for a month
Photoshop CS
Wacom graphire4
3 reference pictures.


I'd really love some feedback on them, if any of you have any.

The spitting image of them both. The only thing that bugged me was Stewart's left ear, but that's just a tiny mistake in an otherwise wonderful piece.

I am not looking at a picture. I am looking at a work that could not possibly have been made by a mortal. Therefore, you are a god.
