And Now For Something Completely Different




















Portrait
Medium: Photoshop
I wasn't going to post this one, as I'm not too happy with it: but then that's true of practically everything, so why not? Unusual for a few reasons- it was drawn from a photo reference, whereas I normally just sketch without references, and it was done entirely in Photoshop. That's a little challenging, as I normally rough out a sketch and scan it in first, but I could really get used to the fluidity it give you, too.

Hey I know that guy!

You did that in Photoshop? I just went to $1000 worth of Photoshop classes and I bet I couldn't do anything that cool.

Hey... It's a great Job! There's enough softness in it and the proportions look right. What do you mean, you don't like it?

Thanks for the kind words. Yep, it's all in Photoshop.

You are talented, as an artist, I really like this, even though it reminds one scarily of those gay porn cartoons one sees around the ridges....

One hasn't seen any of those gay porn cartoons... perhaps one travels around different ridges than Angus?

ANGUS:
Are you talking about the Robert- Maplethorpe-inspired artist, Helmut? Monochromatic, airbrushed, lots of sailors and buff men, etc?
