I think I’ve finally managed to lock down the basic design of the characters in my first motion study.  Deriving from their initial positions and relation to each other, the bottom is a senior Berzerker (customized!), being ambushed by a junior Berzerker (alas, generic starter kit).  They look like Warhammer online berzerkers because the warhammer zerkers just fit the motions that were in the initial motion test so well.  And I haven’t quite mastered face drawing over a fake pen yet.  Now comes the hard part, actually painting the piece in a convincing manner, but that comes later, I’m done working on it for the night and maybe the week.  ^_^/

Inc. LowRez jpg for commentary on changing the stuff.

I’m beginning to suspect that my digital art style just isn’t line-art. After being frustrated by trying to make perfect human body outlines in photoshop, I took a break and decided to do a shadow mass test. The results in my opinion are much more to my liking 3 dimensionally, and I think I may end up developing this basic mass blocking into something that’s a finished product.

Working on some ideas for my PT project.  Maybe I’ll turn it into an online comic /graphic novel…

wow.

this is one of the few pieces of public art that have ever gotten me to say “wow.” for a bigger pic, see here. apparently some of the residents don’t like it so much. but dude. come on… that’s like the most freaking awesome statue i’ve seen in my life.
