Description I wasn't quite sure whether to put this in Digital Art > drawings or Digital Art > paintings. The hair was actually done using a tiny paintbrush, but I figure it might as well be coloured pencil, and the style of it looks like pencil...but then the face is normal paintbrush.

Anyway, my gallery has gone for too long without this character. He's one of those that, once seen, you don't tend to forget. Walter Sullivan is the antagonist in Silent Hill 4 - a truly facinating, if somewhat gory/disgusting/repulsive/horrifying game (but hey, that's the whole point). I won't say much more on him, as I don't want to put too many spoilers in this description, though suffice to say Walter has some rather...violent tendancies.
Do not be surprised if more paintings/drawings of him begin to materialise in this gallery over time.

Oh yeah, as a final comment - he doesn't actually look anywhere near this pale usually. The official wallpaper that I used as reference for this is coloured this way, and I thought it looked quite good anyway, so I decided to use this colour scheme. I may do a 'normal' coloured version at some point, perhaps even with the shoulders in. Or I might do a different one entirely; who can say.

Walter's hotness is everlasting. Lolz. He is so badass and smexy cool. I love to go into chase scenes with him. And his voice rocks and so does his sicko laugh. And whoa this is pimpskizzly. Thats good...

Love your work, one of the best I've seen today. You've captured the character perfectly. The eyes seem to follow you round the room - eek!

Thank you, very much!
If he's eerie to look at, then I've thankfully achieved the effect desired. ^^
I'm glad you like the eyes - they are, I think, along with that bizarre smile, one of his most prominent features in the game..the way they always stare at the viewer in that odd way.

I don't have the game myself - I saw it at a friend's house a while ago. Yet, I've still never forgotten about him as a character ^^
It's unique, for a computer game where the antagonist is essentially the main character. I'll need to get it...but I haven't yet.

Have you played all four? (Or five, counting with the psp one)

I bought The Silent Hill Collection, and it was well worth it! You should too! I love the second one too. Gosh, now I sound like the biggest nerd ever... *Hides the Star Trek memorabilia*

No, but seriously, he is wonderful. Should have seen more of him though... *Sigh* I hope you'll do more Walter fanart!

I've hardly played them myself at all actually. I saw a friend play through all of 2, and the vast majority of 4 (though I didn't see all the victim murders ) I have 1, which I've played a bit of, and I also have 3, which I have also played a bit of...but not all that much. I dunno...4 just seems the most appealing to me, because of the fact it goes into such depth with Walter, a character who normally could easily just be passed of as any old villain. It really stops and addresses the idea of insanity in such an intriguing way. 2 is also good, seeing as the good guy in that also seems to be pretty insane. It's a very strange series, that doesn't cease to amaze me...as I say though, I feel the most drawn to 4, really. ^^

And yes, I do intend to do more Walter fanart, especially now that someone has specifically asked for it.

Thank you! I'll be lurking in your gallery, waiting for it
But now you've inspired me too, so I'll probably make more myself, maybe even try the dreaded little-white-hairs picture.

It's funny, nr 2 and 4 had more appeal to me too. I loved James so much, poor guy, and all the ways the endings could be interpreted. I like it when things aren't spelled out for me. I read that nr 4 was considered the black sheep of the series actually, but I loved it.

(You should see the murder of Richard in Silent Hill 4. Horrible.)
