Who Goes There

Yea I'd be pissed and sad like that too if the 5th installment to my game series is bad.

Forgot to upload this from way back... Was bored, speed painting turned into a complete render.

Done with Photoshop, no references used.

Character (c) Konami

Did this speed painting in Photoshop CS after I saw the Dark Knight. Wanted to make my version of the craaaaaaaaaaazy clown... Had to paint in those texts, would've been awesome if those were pre-set ones : c

Birds of War

The Seekers, led by StarScream, followed by SkyWarp(right) and ThunderCracker (bottom).

HUGE Transformers fan myself, and I just couldn't resist doing a tribute painting to the new live action movie. I painted this scene, in hope that they'll show Screamer's henchmen in the next upcoming sequel lol I just love to paint details and mechs : / and I wanted to show an extreme, fast moving scene, so I bent the horizon of the background, and did a little motion blur to emphasize that these characters are zoom zooming at like what... 116516484 mph? I used refs for StarScream, but I changed the design of his face from the movie and kinda gave him a mouth... and got some refs of real F22 Raptors, cuz... I honestly didn't know what they looked like hah...

Fear No Death

Raiden from Metal Gear Solid, remade as the cyborg ninja in Guns of the Patriot.

Since I really love the whole 3/4 back shot, I decided to incorporate that into this piece's composition. Basically I just tried for a simple colour scheme, and really emphasize on the character's sense of mystique and power, plus I really love his glowing mechanical eyes from the game, so I really popped that out in this piece.

We Are Venom

Ugh... more oldies.

Done this before Spiderman 3 came out, which was SO disappointing imo. For this piece, I really wanted to show the vile and grossness of this character, so I emphasized on the teeth and tongue. I imported several custom textures for the background, kinda giving it like an old, moldy, sewer like wall, kinda like.... he's gross yet beeky right? I also went around, getting references for the arms and hands, kinda improvised for his muscles on the arms, cuz.. well I don't think I can get arms and hands like those?

Lord of the Greater Fiends

Doku, the evil spirit that embodies the suit of a dark samurai, wielding the evil Dark Dragon Blade.
For this piece, I wanted to really emphasize the face of the character, but still keeping all the details on him. I also wanted to present the character as a really tall and intimidating figure. Done in Photoshop CS from scratch.
