Great. Thanks. I didn't even want to sleep any more. This is disturbing and I love it haha. The way you did her cell-shading is well done, and the dark satirical tone of the piece is well pulled off, though her proportions could use some work, and perhaps some practice with your linework and the overall silhouette to achieve more of a look of solidity. Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing!
Sailor Saturn Devours a Child
Share
A reinvention of "Saturn Devouring His Son", a painting originally made by Spanish Artist, Francisco Goya in 1823.
Had this idea for a few months now, finally have the chance to make it a reality.

Thanks, though I purposefully kept the proportions off to better match the wonky proportions in the original Goya painting.
two words... Hell Yeah.
That creepy.
Clever
It's alright, but I can tell it was a quick little joke. The colouring and shading are simplistic. Looks brutal/freaky enough, so good job on that. Not sure about the mouth, though. Maybe a different-looking bite might look better. Some scenery might also help depending on what it is. Her arms look too long. Some blood and such on her and the child would look good.
mohawkade responds:
The lack of scenery and bad anatomy is a nod to the original painting... Originally I was going to give saturn a wig and a dress, but I didn't think anyone would get the joke. So I went the other way around.
