Description My brother and I play some poker every now and then. He's kind of addicted and often watch the poker channel XD Sometimes I join him and when I watch I can't help but to notice all the serious, angry, cunning or nervous expressions the players make.

Sitting there and lurking behind their cards, waiting for their enemy to make the wrong move, just like vultures

Oil color on canvas 56x44 cm


If you wonder what kind of poker game they're playing, it's just a simple "draw poker game". I wanted them to have the cards in their han... er wings..


If anyone has some constukcive critique on this one I gladly accept it (will take this piece to an exhibition in October)

What a wonderful concept! Vultures are definitely a good choice. Their expressions are perfect.

omg jag älskar den här bilden! speciellt hur du gjorde deras ansiktesuttryck!

huum jag kan inte hitta något att kritisera "mina ögon är dåliga på att hitta fel xD" jag tycker i alla fall den ser fantastisk ut

Man blir alltid glad att läsa sådana komentarer:3 Att någon tycker om iden säger också en hel del. Har upptäckt att det är mycket roligare att komponera egna bilder är att bara måla ett enkelt djur plus någon enkel bakgrund

Yeesss finally upp and it looks awsome to boot.
Hokaj crits needed hmmm.... left one could use a bit shading on the neck where the light doesn't reach, the sadow on stack nr 2s (seen from the left) shadow should be pointing more towards the left, vulture nr3s neck needs tweaking so you can see that it's curved, now it just looks a bit blobish.....
Otherwise fantastic

SleepyFennec In reply to camelpardia [2009-05-01 11:46:48 +0000 UTC]

Sound fair, the shading on the vultures' necks need a little more work I'm not sure I understand what you mean about the 3rd vulture But I agree it looks a bit weird now when I look at it
Thanks for your help

Well uh it looks like he has one fat neck, instead of a curvy one
