brought to you by the letters T and A (giftart progress....)

cont'd from the last post (triangulation) here's the excellent thumbnail suggestions from Dustin. Paraphrasing (badly), instead of a static image, the linear composition makes your eye travel, tried to outline the path outlined by the highlights to be more of a storytelling experience. no photo ref cept costumes (triumph/despair at what is apparently a vast and internalized knowledge of stylized/drawn/animated sexualized imagery)
certainly still needs work, butt getting there [sic/ziiing]...
Pretty proud though, all this came out of tonight.

kudos on the nice progress with the commish! i can certainly follow your hi-light path: starting with the wispy hair of the black cat and flowing down through baroness and finally resting comfortably on the hips, er shoulders of the good major! ooh! might i suggest kusanagi holding a stylized shiro pistol/SMG in her left hand (since it's not really doing anything else at the moment)? it's would add some "kick" to all that ass. also a note: you may want to streamline the baroness' belt. the techy details can create a bit of confusion particularly with the digital nature of kusanagi.

and all in one night!? the speed of straight-to-computer rendering... i was flipping through the new issue of wizard at the library and they had a little infographic on brian bolland (http://www.brianbolland.net/). apparently he's been entirely digital since like 1996 or something! i never would have thought looking at his style!

yeah her hand def needs a nice object to balance it out with....and excellent point on the belt, detailing tends to do me in...

digital since 96?? impressive. Remember when D-Tron's cover work was the coolest thing ever? i still remember his generated warmtone gradients massaging my eyeballs in those early days of Top Cow titles. This bolland fellow reminds me of a less stylized art adams sort of inker/hatcher enthusiast...
