A year ago I did up a pic of BHC and it was ... ok, but I wasn't totally happy with it. I wavered between badass and funny... and it didn't really go either way.

Almost a year later I've fond myself with another opportunity to take a stab at him - stuck with just makin' him look rough.

Big Honkin Chicken

It's always interesting to revisit characters and to see how your skills have changed (if at all. lol)

nice new pic.

^^ soooo, he takes a screenies and photoshops it. Yup, that's pretty much how I thought the process went.

+ a little bit of havng a good enough rig to be able to take decent screenies.

I like this kind of thread.

Dig the Bokuman one.

(that one had its own thread and was posted before I started this thread here, but you know what, you're totally right; so epic it deserves another go 'round!)

That it did, but I thought you were hyping your gallery for a bit.

Is Gill gone?

Has it been a month already?

*cough*, I think you might be forgetting a recent one...

Wow, great stuff. Both the cover and the writing.

Happy B-day TL.

Yeah, sorry guys, just to be clear, as an artist I feel comfortable puttin up a picture that I'd say was my 'worst' of the year. But if you're getting gift art and such, it's probably not in the same spirit.

Glad you guys dig it. I probably won't hear back from MS for a bit, he's serving in Kuwait right now, but I'm sure he'll eventually find his way to this thread.

Wow, you're getting a serious collection goin'

Great additions to your gallery SD.

I thought we could look back at some of our best pieces, whether done by us or for us, in 2008. Choose to list however you want, or feel free to follow my format.

Most Faved - Facial Shading

Most Viewed The VirtueVerse II

Personal fave - Doc Aether

Worst - Statesman

Best Fan Art - My character Captain Corea


Anyone else want to share?

Best or worst?

Well now, some people might dig old fashioned samurai, with their armor and flags and whatnot, for me, I'm cool with something more contemporary.

So, when someone asked me to do up their character Modern Samurai, I jumped at the chance.

Hope he likes it, and hope everyone has a great New Year!

^^ Gill needs to show us a tutorial

pretty funky piece!

very cool shot

WonderHawk wins for me. Great shadows. Great power FX. Great look on her face.

Thanks man. She actually looks far more evil than she really is. She's supposed to be a goody, but I gave her an evil streak - something about those shadows just called out to me though. lol

Thanks guys. It feels great to be caught up on my projects.

Well, my wife took the babe and headed to the in-laws for the weekend, so that gave me some time to finish up some long overdue projects. My hand needs some strechin' out now, but it was worth it - I enjoyed these.

And of course that piece I already posted of Storm Devil. Wow, that's a lot of work. I hope all the 'requesters' like the pieces... and you guys as well.

I've been trying something a little different with the pieces.. a bit harsher lighting and such. What do ya think?
