[The Hero(?)]

Funny how it looks more like a villain :)

CaptionPanic responds:

Yea, I don't think he's quite the hero people wanted...

What really made me want to review this and give it a 5 stars (apart from the fact that it's really good) : the reflection on the knife :)
Just a weird point : how come so much light arrives on the girl without diffracting in the opposite way ? (don't feel obligated to answer this, it works just fine like this, but as a physics teacher, it made me raise an eyebrow... call it occupational hazard :) )

HugoVRB responds:

Hi!!
Great point! I love lighting, it is my favorite subject ever, I can talk about the quantum mechanics of light ALL DAY.

The thing I love about painting cartoony style, is that I can emphasize my focal points with over the top lighting, defying physics to tell a story!
As this is an underlighting with a few bounce lights around the character, I cheated the lights dynamic range on the knife to make it stand out a bit more, due to the reflectiveness I decided to cheat the angle of incidence to make a dramatic reflection even if it doesn't really match how the light bounces in the scene.
You are absolutely right that the light shoul've bounced a lot more on the scene, but the fantastic thing about making up my worlds is that I can make up phyisics!

Sorry if my english is not that good!

I admire teachers a lot, specially science ones. Keep making the world a smarter place!

Just to satisfy my curiosity (and my learning of japanese) : "andoroido gaibu" means "androids outing" ?
Great work btw. C16 is in the back ? :)

MatthewLopz responds:

COUGH idk japanese dude, he sure is.

[streetfighter fanart]

Well done !
The difference in realism between Blanka and Chun-LI is ... unsettling. It made me focus more on Chun-Li than in the rest of the picture. Was it on puprose ?

Crounchann responds:

Thanks :)
Yes The difference on proportions also... I wanted to make a kind of mashup between KingKong and street fighter ;)... Also the light is focused on Chun-Li.

[Bojack Horseman]

Yeah, he looks reaaaaally old... It's amazing how you caught it ! Keep painting !
