Description Edit: I just wanted to say I used all default Photoshop brushes on this.

I get super embarrassed posting stuff like this but Shikeleostar said I had to - so here it is.

This is 25 year old Gary Oak from a fan comic based on the Pokemon anime I've been doing. It's essentially about a Pokemon war. He is one of the main characters, the other being Ash, obviously. 

You can read it here for more context or if your interested - PKMN: A World Changed - Prologue PG1

Anyways, all embarrassment aside over posting half naked men to my gallery, I really wanted to practice some lighting and background stuff I can use in my comic. I really need to focus on proportions as well. 

Now that this is done, time to work on page 2 of chapter 2.

It's just a ton of practice, and a lot of trial and error. You should have seen the way this looked after the first shading attempt. I deleted all those layers and started again. It was horrible.

True. You should see my very first attempts. I was so hesitant with it I did no where near enough shading. And before that I didnt even shade. My old art is so cringy! >_<

Mine is pretty cringy too. My scraps are a scary place to be.

Oh wow, what a detailed and wonderful piece! I really admire your bg making skills, I would never have the patience for that! The atmosphere is wonderful, I would love to sleep with that rain falling on the roof like it is. <3

XD Eye candy! I love the lighting in this one.
Don't worry, I had my share of awkward experiences when I studied anatomy... Friends who peeped into private folders of 
practice sheets did not help at all. Gary looks great! No need to be embarrassed.

At least he isn't fully naked. That would be really awkward

That would require some mature content filter.

Very much so. It would be really awkward for you to draw it

Looking up references of the nude male body? I would (not really) but I need to protect what little innocence I have left

Excelle- Wait..

If that's the case then your entire gallery is going to be full of Gary Oak chests

Perhaps...

The next scene I'm planning to paint will probably be a lovey-dovey scene between Ash and Serena. I want to do a few more comic pages while I come up with an idea.

I, in my infinite wisdom, feel you should just have pages entirely dedicated to explosions.. You'll be famous in no time!

By "practice" you mean "practice" or is it another way of saying "I just wanted to draw a half-naked hot guy"?^^
Oh, wait, that's only me...

Thank you again for the fav, by the way!^^

i don't think we've seen that tatoo before.

he hasn't got a ninetiles living inside of him or something like that?

SassyCess In reply to Electric-Raichu [2015-09-26 16:36:00 +0000 UTC]

So far, no, but that would make a great parody scene to paint.

The tattoo was a little visible on page12 when they were changing, but I it was hard to see once I shrunk the file size for upload.
