Description It’s been 2 months since I last submitted something. (Hi people )
But YAY.
Something different of mine for once! xD <3


AVP fetish (once again), but I’ve been pretty down about (trivial <__< >__>) issues lately that it makes AvP, to me, that extra bit special 8)
Hey.
Gotta have ‘something’ FRESH to keep things off my mind….

This was meant to just be a simple practice sketch, but I shaded in some parts more than others…so it’s imperfect 8DDDD;;; plus quality was lost when I scanned it.
I intended to finish at the neck. Needless to say, I really got into this and ended up filling the whole A4 page 8)
and umm.. bad anatomy for left arm..

I copied ‘Scar’s’ face from AVP 1 movie from where he removes his mask to mark the heroine.
His eyes in that shot were so calm :3 (Actor’s got pretty eyes...)
I wanted to capture that here, even if I ‘did’ manage to humanise/soften the Predator image
But I really enjoyed drawing this

I designed the (retractable) spear myself (along with some of the armouring coz reference didn't help me much), basing it on the tail of a Xenomorph and also on the weapon that the heroine receives from the Predator Elder.
Eh I know, the spear head probably isn’t long enough, considering the fact that the blade-like segment of a Xenomorph tail is much longer than…the way I drew it.

Great sketch. The detail and shading are awesome. Did you think of colouring it?

thanks~!
nah, i wasn't going to colour it, that's why i shaded it
I think i'm a bit better at monochrome stuff than colour anyway .___. as in, i SUCK at traditional colours D'x
(that's why you amaze me with your traditional skills and digi skills )

I also prefer sketching, because you have full control over your drawing, but I don't agree with you. You have some coloured traditional artworks like: "Hells Dragon" or "Dark Entity". They are really good coloured, I really like them. So don't be so hard to yourself, because you have abilities to make a good, traditional coloured artwork.

Silent-Neutral In reply to fullcreamilk [2008-08-28 12:21:16 +0000 UTC]

his skull = his head? right...? gosh i feel dumb asking that question <_< >_>;; lol
i didn't make his head flat enough though.

xD you seem to like bones. ummm i think what you take as bone, are meant to be his metal plates of armour

oh, hmm.. yeah you might not be able to see it properly...it looked different when i scanned it to the laptop....

ahahaaaa...art career.. that sounds so godly to me right now.. TT__TT...coz i don't want to do anything else.
(even though i was thinking of being a journalist...)

lol anyway, haven't chat to you for a while. should catch up~ ~!
