Description A couple of months' work and there you have it. The promo picture of Knight Man I promised you.

So much work went into this, you have no idea. But, I'm proud of it. Some things I would change, but it's too late to go back...plus, I'm lazy. I'd rather just move on and improve on my mistakes in future works.

Enjoy it!

Very nice ^^ You've gotten really good! Your light source changes a lot, but I like how you light it. I think the larger guy might have a little too many direct light highlights. You might want to break it up and scatter it around to make it look more believable. The clouds in the background are very good (and I'm glad you actually made them look like clouds, too! Too many people try to make realistic clouds and it's very hard to tell what they are.) You might want to blend the colors on the knight's armor a little more, too. :3 Overall, excellent work ^^

Yeah, I tried to keep it consistent, but I would get sidetracked by other things in the picture...And yeah, Barbarian was my main concern with the pic. He seems too plastic.

Thanks! I looked up a good tutorial for clouds, and found one.

As for Knight Man, the armor was the first metal object I've ever drawn. The metal looks more believable with Smithy's armor and hammer.

Thank you for your honesty! I appreciate it!

The black dude reminds me of one of the players from the V-ball/Soccer Nintendo game. And that is what makes this is awesome. That and the jewfro.

Thanks! The jewfro on Bernie is indeed awesome. It's a jewfro few can appreciate.

I forget the name of the game but my sister has it over at her place. Actually, the style is like yours with the characters and all. Some that is. I think there is even a little Gene running around - haha. But yea, basically you challenge people from around the globe, and use special attacks to knock them 30 feet in the air only to fall on the field dead. Like... you can knock out everyone with cool attacks except the goalie and main leader for each team as well as a middle man. I'll get some clips one day lol.

Man that jewfro be pimpin.

storeboughtarmy In reply to hyperboy [2007-05-02 21:44:44 +0000 UTC]

well all of them except for the white thing.

i dunno.
everything else just seems to be vaguely realistic and detailed and then youve got the huge black eyes.
that goes especially for the big guy on the left.

they look like porcelain dolls or something.

thats just my opinion though.

hyperboy In reply to storeboughtarmy [2007-05-03 03:14:27 +0000 UTC]

Well, I appreciate the critique. Personally, I think they're all borderline cartoony/realistic. So, the eyes aren't much of a stretch. I can't picture the eyes looking any other way...

I agree, they all look like porcelain dolls. I'd say more like action figures. Not really intentional on my part...that's just how I color. Maybe I'll improve with time. Or maybe that's my natural method of coloring. Some artists see colors differently than others.

all that stuff we haven't seen in ages

hyperboy In reply to Flesheatingsquirrel [2007-04-22 18:35:39 +0000 UTC]

Well, those projects are all kind of dead. Freakz, I would gladly resurrect, but I always had so much trouble with its plot that I don't think it's worth it.

There's other (more recent) stories I've never shown you guys, that I'd love to illustrate.

I love it too much to let it go. It's always hovering around in my mind and sketchbook. I thought I'd give it the picture it deserves.

Great work on the shading, and I know I'm going to get punched for saying this but...any chance of a Flash series in the future?
*Flinches*

Thank you!

Why the flinching? It's a good question! I'd love to make a Flash series, but it's not at the top priority.

I'd love Knight Man be the cartoon I pitch to networks, though. It has TV potential.
