Description Well, here’s my entry for ‘s Darkstalkers Tribute book. And since you’re seeing it now that means I didn’t make the cut so here it is for you all to gander at. I originally planned to do a group shot of all my favorite characters, but I soon realized that my favs were of way too popular characters. After seeing a few of the previews some of the other artists posted I felt I needed to focus on some different characters so I went with Jedah. This was done as a marker/pen sketch on marker paper and colored up in Photoshop CS4. That’s about it.

Thank you very much! Yeah, it was a little disappointing not making it, but there's alot of great artist that had their work rejected. I'm really interested in seeing the art in the final book.

I think you guys are being generous to Udon, personally. Supposedly Marvel Comics "sets the bar high," and they hired Rob Leifeld. Just sayin'...

Well, Marvel in the late 80's is different then today, I gurantee if Liefeld was just starting in comics now he would not be hired at Marvel. But some of these Darkstalkers submissions I've seen not accepted by Udon is criminal.

The shading is excellent on him, I love the hatching effect that you used as well. Of course your forshortening is lovely too. Everything compliments Jedah as being a villain. I'm surprised it didn't make the cut. must be very strict on what they want.

Thank you very much! Well, judging from some of these illustrations from other artists that totally crush me talent wise that didn't get in I'm not too surprized that I didn't make it. Udon sets the bar pretty high, and I guess I got a lot of practice to do if I'm ever going to grab thier attention! But hey it was fun to do none-the-less.

At least it was fun but I did come across an image that was also submitted to the contest, it was of Morrigan and Lilith. I must say that for a complete digital rendering it was amazing and he said that he didn't make the cut either. Just from that and from what you tell me, the bar must be really high. But I still think that your picture should have been in there! Jedah's a kick ass villain!
