BEST NG ART CONTEST EVAARRRR!!!!
I've got a lot going on right now with classes and work and stuff, but this is just way too tempting. I've been considering a subscription to Heavy Metal for quite a while now, and am really excited about trying to make a photorealistic pic. Btw, check out Vortex00's speed coloring vids for ideas on photorealistic coloring in photoshop:

Sounds fun. I use Photoshop a lot in my job and crap, never exactly did digital drawings. I'll try it out!!

Oh my God, best subject for a contest ever.

I am going to try really hard, and then give up!

Response to Heavy Metal discussion thread 2008-02-14 13:57:11


Also, not to be a dick, but I wish you hadn't encouraged tracing and overpainting to that extent in the tutorial.

Now we're just going to get a bunch of traced pornography with skirts and guns slapped on...

Reference is a good learning tool, but tracing and overpainting photos is going a little overboard for a contest (unless of course, you take your own reference pictures).

I loved Heavy Metal. I saw it a few years back on Showtime.

Yeah, the songs suck. He told me once that he tries to make the music fit the theme of what he's doing though, and for the most part he doesn't a good job with that. Just turn your sound off if you don't like it.

*does a good job with that.

I like how one typo can fuck up the entire meaning of your post.

Do the forums always blur images, or is there a way around that?

Okay I started my sketch today.

And in about 12 hours I've made this. I think all I need to do is add some dodge-tool effects to shade it and it should be just about done.
What do you guys think?

Yeah the quote thing is fucked up right now. Anyways, you don't have to put all the details, but it gives extra points :P Also it's an extra challenge to place your figure properly so it doesn't hide too much of the title.
