    woa!

    Holy hell, you sending 3-D glasses out for this one?! Really cool effect on there, and I like the color choices. It would be interesting to see this sort of thing applied to some other works, perhaps!

    Typical Karl.

    As to be expected of your skills, this is a quality piece! I have always liked how you add the appropriate amount of detail in different areas to draw the viewers attention where it should be, and really accentuate the detail by comparison to the other parts. I enjoy how creepy he is, just like the character in the movies.

    My only qualm with it is I don't know if its hiding, or perspective or something, but he seems to be missing a finger on his left hand. Not a major flaw, since it took me a while to notice it, and I could just be seeing it wrong. Almost looks like he should be holding a glass of something.

    The color scheme is perfect, and the bits of greenish brown on the neck are a superb addition to the normal skin tone palette. Well done like always good sir, your eye for color makes me so envious!

    Thanks man! Felt great reading that.

    I was thinking about that finger aswell. I spent some time getting some kind of working posture with the hand, making him look a bit more deviant and bizarre, but not making him look retarded. Haha. The last finger is that little lighter area under the "last" finger.

    Excellent!

    You really can't appreciate this as much without the fullview. Really loving the little details on the texture for the crasher's fabric, and the dragon's scales/skin, quite impressive! Your use of perspective and depth using the castle in the background works really well also.

    To have some crit, the lightning isn't really doing if for me for some reason, I think it may be how they look around the arms, but its nothing major that really takes away from the piece. Also, the background being red as well slightly takes away from having the crasher "pop out," but I know you were going for a darkish/red/evil sorta theme here, so its all good.

    Looking through your other work, it is blatantly obvious that you are improving, and this is definitely my favorite of your work to date! Keep at it!

    J-qb responds:

    Thanks, And I agree, the fullview works better. Lets just hope it gets in the calender, where all those details can really be appreciated ;p
    About the lightning: yeah that was an ass, I originally had it only around the mace, but that looked stupid because there was too little of it. Having lightning powers is not really something you can show in small details... Red background; Yeah I guess so, but indeed this was how the picture looked in my head (atmosphere-wise) so I wouldnt change it. Although I will keep it in mind for the next time.
    Thanks for the comment, and the crits.

    -I'm merely remarking on the paradox of asking a masked man who he is.
