Description was trying to do a post-apocalyptic landscape.. playing with as many colours as possible till i got uncomfortable ;p

then i just thought of swordsmen..(and one pikeman)

this one took a longer time( more relaxed, too^^ i ate while doing this .. yum!) ! 3.5 hours in ps6.0 ... had to sharpen the image ;p

inspired somewhat from little red riding hood.. and the muzzles on the gasmasks are inspired from the wold in the story.

yeh yeh enough yakking from me... hope u like it!

I love this!! The pikeman reminds me of the guys from the film, The Brotherhood of the Wolf, but I'm not entirely sure why. Maybe it's the image of one of the guys wielding a pole of some kind in a fight.

But yea, this is AMAZING. Somewhat inspirational actually.

...Although I have to admit being a die-hard for the game before I got into the books, but mmm. Fremen. The worm-herder of the Shai-Hulud (i think that's what they called the sand-worms..) were soooo cool. Anyway, You're welcome!! ;D

Haha man, when I opened this up in fullsize I thought "what? oh my god, more gas masks.. No wait, just face-plates this time". Are you avoiding faces intentionally? I remember reading you saying you think you suck at faces. But they turned out great on the navy-diver Betrayal.

The red is absolutely dilicious. Sweetass work man, as usual.

Wow very nice piece. I like it when people combine elements from different eras. Gives it a much more sureal feel and as opposed to totally fictional objects you can relate to them. This piece looks a lot like some post apocalyptic setting.

OK so here i am browsing through your truly awsome gallery and i stumble across this, the feel of thamoungis pic is amazing its definitly among my favorites. again as with my faved of urs it has the cool historic modern steampunk thing going on which as i'm sure you've guessed by now i love. As with alot of your work the poses suggest something more, so often there is just the picture but you capture the setting and hint at something going on outside the confinds of the frame, truly amazing +fav

i think the sky is so perfect, the sun shining through thick haze and all you see is white, like in a white out-blizzard...or LA. really love this, although id like to see the red on their cape things have a little more saturation/brightness....but its awesome, great movement! that pikesman jsut wants to twirl that thing around, i can tell. +fav

Hey, Ukita!
I had not seen this one!
Man... This is good. Very good. Apart from your technique, I like the fact that the people in this image seem ready to move...to act. Also, I like their stances. Arrogant, warrior-like.
Man, keep it up. I hope you manage to get money out of your art!

Thank-you

I hope some day when I have some money to spare that I can plaster my walls with your work. It would be my pleasure.

And please.. continue sharing your work with everyone! we can't get enough!

I WANT YOUR BODY!!!!!

Hehehe. Dammit. This shite's hot, dude! I'm lovin all of your recents - been trying to decide which one I like best, and I think this is definitely it. Your PS style's tight, man. Soft, but crisp. Curvy, but sharp. Warm but cool. Oxymoronic, but brilliant.

There's a lot of cool ps work around DA, but I like yours best. It's inspiring - none of the other have ever really made me wanna learn cg, which yours do in spades. I look at other cgs, with wacom filters and mad ps manipulation and shite, and I think to myself "That's cool, but I'll never be able to cg because I don't know how to use all of this stuff and these filters and yadda yadda yadda." I look at yours, and it looks like you did it all on one layer with the brush, and it makes me do a double-take. I think "That's cool as hell, and what's more, I could learn to do that!" It's hot, because you get the definite impression that you know what you're doing. You use Photoshop as a tool - as the means to the end instead of bending your pieces to work with the program, like so many artists around here do.

In a nutshell:
UKITA FOR PRESIDENT.
