You may be wondering to youself why the hell I drew a character from such an intensely crappy movie (I still sometimes wonder about this one). I was mostly struck by the vibrant greens and reds, and wanted to to a picture where I could really tackle some different textures without making the picture look too smudgy or blurry.

Just for details sake, there are no photos in this picture, and the picture itself is not a photo. It was a painstaking recreation of a picture I found on a google image search. It took a lot of gridding, layers, patience, and probably a decent portion of my sanity, but here it is. The gloves I think are wonderful.

This was done mostly with the paintbrush, smudge, pen, burn, and dodge tools in Photoshop 7.

This is beautiful and amazingly done. I get frustrated with the fact that I see so much crap in the daily deviations and top favorites and things as amazing as this practically get ignored. I don't know how you did this or where you got the patience to spend THAT much time on it, but you did an incredible job. Definitely a fav
