The Imperial: WIP

Alright, so I took a couple of days off to visit Starchasm while she's in-state so that kind of slowed production down a bit, but I'm back and working like a coked up monkey now.

As mentioned earlier, currently on the chopping block is that immortal tank of a man with the burden of time weighing heavy on his immovable shoulders, the Imperial. I have the pose down for him here and should have the pencils completed in a few hours (keeps fingers crossed).

Gah! Get back, goat, don't eat that, no... NO! noooooooooo....

Eh, oh well, that was just the pose sketch. I got the pencils mostly for the most part finished. As usual, took me a bit longer then I had first thought. Either way, I'll be starting on the painting of it tommarow.

And I'm glad you all liked my... pose sketch... seriously, it as just a pose sketch... this is a lot closer to how it's gonna look ya know

Edit: Oh, and Starchasm, what I was doing last night was waiting for Imperial to get back to me and working on the posses for Battle-Angel The nerve insinuating that I up and slacked off... I tell ya...

Thats lookin' real good, Graver. I really like the pose and all that royal trim on all the furniture.

The only thing that bothers me a little is the woman's face in the painting. Her left eye(our right) looks like it is sticking out of her head more than her right eye to me. I think maybe her right eye needs to be lowered a skosh, her left eye foreshortened a little more, and her left cheekline near her nose maybe raised a little? I don't know, thats just my gut feeling.

Oh, and also I cant see Cape Cod jutting out from the east coast on your globe.

Ooooo that's gonna look sooooo good!!!

I think the face itself looks okay, but I think that the portrait looks too big. It's distracting. BUT knowing you you're probably going to make it soft and blendy into the background so I think it'll probably be okay

Wow, How do you work so fast? This is going to look soooo good when you are done.

Me, work fast?! That has got to be the first time anyone has ever said that in relation to my work, you've got to be on some serious medications there ... but I'll take the complement

Either way, thanks all for the help and critiques on the face there. I ended up just completely redoing it today as, Star was right, it was a bit too prominent and it might have remained so even if I made it all fuzzy the way I like to do So, I shrunk her down a bit, and in redrawing the face, she came together much better. However, I will not be adding Cape Cod to the globe. It's my world and if I don't want cape Cod to be mucking it all up, then I don't have to so .

Either way, I should be updating you guys with some painting on it before the nights over
