Description over the summer i was listening to gz and alk talking about... suits and gas masks.
they don't remember it. but i do.
i dont usually get that kind of image stuck in my head and stay with me for months... so this is it. i painted it in the last few days. made it more resident evil themed.


it's in full color, but i thought it looked better monochrome. maybe ill post the full color if you all want to see it.


pscs2.
it's not refined but i didnt feel like working on it anymore, my desktop for a week.
multiple refs on the gas mask and crows.

growing up here in pittsburgh made me really love zombies and for some reason i cant stop looking at this piece.

i just love the bleakness; which i guess is weird because im surrounded by it every day here, because in my city, the sun never shines.

fave'd.

Looks like 47 just hit zombie town. Your thoughts when you're drawing this?

i had this on my mind the entire time:
"sayonara, misora naomi-san." - deathnote episode 7.
[link] (it's a spoiler if you havent watched the series already)
i rewatched the ending about 50 times during my breaks while painting it, i dont know why, but i liked seeing....... her death.

I think it's because of the briefcase and tie-grabbing, but I am very reminded of the G-Man from Half-Life.

It's a sick painting, anyway. Your detail with light and shadow is phenomenal.

let's see about 15 visible zombies and a suitcase, yeah, no problem.

The grainy texture is a nice touch.
Very well drawn goes without sayin'. I especially like the buildin's (both back and foreground), you always draw them very well. The zombie shadows on the buildin' side seems off though what with the high fence.

I wonder why we guys like gas masks, makes ya wonder, huh?

sohlol In reply to Arieo [2006-12-29 08:17:06 +0000 UTC]

haha, yea the shadows are off, i meant for it to be a setting sun, but it's still kind of high. in any case, i wanted the lighting to be kinda dramatic like that, so i sacrificed accuracy for it. oh well.

gas masks.... well if you like zombies, you gotta like gas masks too. ill take the whole package with what comes with being a zombie fan.

Arieo In reply to sohlol [2006-12-29 08:37:19 +0000 UTC]

and dramatic it be

I always associated gas masks with Break dancing thanks to Gas-O from Bust a Groove. (Feels old). I actually bought a Gas Mask a while back as part of my zombie suit. Good times I hope to test it out sometime

sohlol In reply to silentruth [2006-12-28 02:23:52 +0000 UTC]

... literally, just sketched it out to get that texture (you're referring to the right wall i think?). haha. it's all brushwork using default photoshop brushes. i use the hard round brush at different opacities and colors, whole thing is done with this brush.

pensivejakal [2006-12-27 05:06:52 +0000 UTC]

You say it's not refined, but I think the only things that needs any work at all are the two crows on the right. I like that everything else is unrefined (other than the suit and gas mask character, who is isolated to great effect). This is a great looking piece.
