Description
I did this one a few years ago on my free time. I really like doing BGs and vehicals as well as drawing girls.I added a few thigns here and there before posting this one.
It was drawn in ink, Micron pen, and then coloured in Corel Photopaint 8 (1997).
I was playing a lot of Vice City at the time, man that game rocked.
(For those who know the game: I had 875 kills in vigilante mode in one turn! It took like three hours and it was like at level 56+ and no health cheats! I used the 'FBI Washington' . The fastest time I could get 6 stars is 35 seconds, my friend did in 28 though.)

Nice,...you got the vice city feel creeping all over the picture...with the glowy lights and stuff....soooo nice...
and 'bout the game,...no cheats whatsoever,(except for getting into a wanted lvl where tanks are starting to chase you)...I managed to reach about lvl 60+ and over 900 kills on a tank. Played it 'bout a couple years back,cant remember much of the details. That game kicked seriuos ass, that once I even dreamed I was tommy verceti!!!! hahaha!

You used a car? Dang!!! THATS tough...
you just get blown up easily...thats why I used a tank, and you know, if you finished the game's story mode, you could use a freakishly cool APACHE ATTACK HELICOPTER!!!! Terror on the skies for all I know!

Hmm...There's a word somewhere in the Merriam-Webster English dictionary that I could use to describe what I think about that background...And I thought I knew that word, but apparently I don't...
Otherwise, I'm at a loss of known words, other than that is badass...
(BTW, how in the hell did you get 6 stars so quickly in VC?)

What you do is go to a crowded street, and wiat for atleast two cops to show up, like just walking around. if you have some cars around , parked or otherwise, that will help too, especially if you can get a staggered explosion so every few seconds a car is blowing up.
With your Spaz shot gun take them down, a cop car will come, with the same shot gun blow that up, a heli will come and take that down with rocket launcher. It is about getting the cops and FBI, civilians dont boost the meter as fast.
Blow up a few FBI's and usually you can do it in about 1 minute or less, but sometimes you get a fluke cop car driving by, and that will boost the stars faster by blowing it up after the cops get out.
It takes some practice, but eventually you find the money spots, like down the street from the peeler club Tommy owns just outside his apartment where you first start off.
I stopped playing cause it was a bit too violent, but that is how my friend and i used to do it.
Now i am all Gran Turismo.

LOL I am glad you appreciate the stats, that was a pretty hardcore session of vigilante, it is much easier than it was in liberty city/ GTA 3. After a while i like getting into trouble, so i would use the cop car, and get five stars and then to vigilante to see how far i could get, that was a lot of fun and i dubbed that game " 5 Star Vigilante" ( you say it like how you say GO GO PowerRangers)
I used to have massive stand offs with the FBI ( or Fibbies as we used to call them) That game was amazing, i feel like doing a fan pic of it.
Tommy Vercetti slams hard. I used to say "Tommy is a man of the people, enforcing the law and breaking a few as well."

I wish I could make bgs like this. My bgs are empty and clean, and look unlived in.
Yours look like it's alive.

The key sometimes is to dirty it up a bit, try to figure out what marks and scufs would happen if someone were to really live there.
Like the hallway where people remove their shoes, most times people will brace themselves on the wall while they undo their shoes laces. look there and you will see all sorts of marks. if you add things like this into your bgs they will become alive because you are telling a story through them.

I never thought about it that way.
It makes a lot of sense. I've always think of my character's history when I draw them, but I never thought about taking the environments
history into consideration.
Thank you for the helpful tip. I will make sure to use it with my next bg.
