I really like this guy! You've really made him feel tough and gave him a great expression. But I am not to fond of how blurry he gets around his head. You may wanna think about sharpening those lines and really get a contrast of values in there to pull his head out of the background. Otherwise great job as usual! Love the detail in his suit!

You should do character design for video game developers! Or do you already do that?

heheh, yeah, i already do that.. . Not these kinds of guys though. Unfortunately, Firaxis Games doesn't make shooters. Maybe someday i'll get to post some of the concept art i've been making for Civilization IV.

This particular badass reminds me of Unreal Tournament 200X (insert whichever) characters except more realistic. I hate how UT characters are all huge and blocky-lo0king now. Have you seen some of the concept art for S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl?

stalker? i;ve only seen screenshots, no concept stuff. their figures have a really wierd thing happening with the head, nick, and chest. Like, the main guy has a hunch-back. When is that game supposed to come out anyway? Did the game get scrapped?

[link] <- I found this piece of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. concept art. I've seen lots of the other stuff, but now that I'm actually lo0king for it, I can't find it. This pic here is a drawring of a gas masked guy with an RG-6 grenade launcher and a t0ol that resembles a metal/mine detector (possibly some kind of anomoly detector). The last several inches of the RG-6's barrel seem to be cut off at the top. The RG-6 really is one of the weapons you can get in the game! It's a 6-shot rotary double-action 40mm grenade launcher of demented do0o0o0o0m!!

I did a Go0gle Image Search for "stalker chernobyl art" or "stalker concept art" and found some things, but the links must be broken. When I clicked on the images, I got the dreaded error-message-on-white-screen. Drat!

As for the guys lo0king like hunchbacks, it could be because they all have chemical ho0ds on their uniforms and they all wear backpacks and when they've got their weapon shouldered, they're in a firing/defensive stance, slightly crouched down like SWAT guys do. I wonder just how authentic GSC Gameworld went with that. In the real world, you use different stances with different weapons. For example, a shotgun stance differs from a rifle stance in that you lean forward a bit. It's a more aggressive stance. I doubt they have different stances like that. It's not really a necessary part of the game.
