Denim Ghetto

Around last year November I was pretty busy, because this one also comes from then.
It's very J.Lo with a bit of a naughty edge. Luckily though, there's no nip-slip going on!

I initially made her crotch rather 'manly and large', unintentionally of course, but much tweaking, flattening and sucking - kinda like plastic surgery - and voila! She has her womanly shape back.

A Storm's a-brewin'

Storm. There's not much more to say about the character, everyone knows her from X-Men fame. Usually a black woman with a cape, I spiced it up by taking away her cape and making her caucasian. I spent a lot of time on her hair, adding shadows in certain areas, and considering her hair is so busy, it was something I'm not too keen to repeat.
I did this one in September last year, and also included it in my portfolio for my college application.

Angeline Jolie look-alike

Now this picture I did a really, really long time. It was around the time when Wanted, the Angelina Jolie and James McAvoy movie came out. Obviously that's where my inspiration came from. Something in this picture which I rarely do because it's too difficult, is the smudging of light and shadows.
For most of my pictures I use clean, fine lines to part the light from shadows, where this picture uses smudges. It gives it a realistic look to it, but it can also go very wrong, hence why I prefer not to do it too often. You can notice it especially on her breasts (I'm proud of those knockers).

This specific picture took me 9 hours over 3 days!!!

Punk Rocker!

This image I created around this time last year. It's very basic, it didn't take me long either but what I like is the weird body proportions.
I got lazy and didn't wanna add guitar strings, plus i think it might have made the simple image too busy.
But I'm happy with the result :)

Beach Boy!

Gearing up for Summer, even though it's a few months away.
I've created a beach boy who is wearing the exact same pink hotpants that I have (except I don't look that good in them).
I really dig the sand effect I tried by his knees and feet. Perspective along with anatomy are things I'm trying out at the moment.

Bring on the sand, sun and surf!

Chesty Hero!

The bigger the chest, the better!

I created a new character with an enormous chest - working with anatomy, trying to learn all the muscle groups proves to be rather rewarding.

The arms were also a tad bit difficult but came out ok-ish.

Don't ask me what the two smoking, boulder type rocks are in his hands. I battled doing his hands so I decided to hide them... hey, I'm still learning. ;)

Sharktopus!

One of my first assignments back at college this semester was to create a hybrid creature from two seperate animals.

I combined a shark and an octopus. I had to include a backdrop as well, was pretty tough, but I think it came out ok...
