I've realized backgrounds are just as important as the characters in them. It is another character in a way. So I tried to do that in my latest piece...

Here is a piece done for my mastermind, the Handler. A Council commander inspiring fear and hate, then rallying the people to his cause.

Here is a close up of the speaker, because this was a massive canvas, and some details are hard to see.

Comments welcome.

Itsy bitsy nagging question: Shouldn't the raised fists in the crowds be sticking out of sleeves?

Other wise looks great. Love the shadowy enforcer type behind the screaming zealot.

That's just awesome. He came out strangely Asian-looking, but still.

Nice piece though!

I thought about sleeves, but decided they would distract and cover up the picture more than anything.

Thanks for the compliments guys!

This reminds me so much of certain portions of Pink Floyd's "The Wall" (the film with Bob Geldorf was particularly disturbing.)



"City of Heroes. April 27, 2004 - August 31, 2012. Obliterated not with a weapon of mass destruction, not by an all-powerful supervillain... but by a cold-hearted and cowardly corporate suck-up."

this is cool, the concept is awesome, the speaker himself looks odd though, can't put my finger on it, just looks off. Other than that the angle and the vibe of the art and speech rock
