Nice! The only thing I can really see that bugs me is the blurriness of the hair. Sharpen up the top part, and methinks to shall be perfect

Maybe clean up the hands as well, they dont look nearly as clean as the rest of the lines, but it does look really great otherwise.

HOLY SHEET!

Thats really good. Fantastic rendering skills. The anatomy of the upper body, especially the neck and right shoulder / arm kinda bugs me though.

I agree with the above suggestions about rendering sharpness, some areas look a bit ignored.

I am really impressed by this pic, you are a winner already!

DiXter · Posted: Sun Dec 09, 2001 6:02 pm

ditto drbang.

I like the floor.. Is it done in a 3D program??

The hands could need some more work though..

Jezebel · Posted: Sun Dec 09, 2001 6:03 pm

That is seriously badass. I love the guy on the right. And like some others suggested, the hands could be tightened up a little.

Wow, just look at those shoes!

pastaboy · Posted: Sun Dec 09, 2001 6:32 pm

very nice. I especially like the guys in the background. good job.

Tinusch · Posted: Sun Dec 09, 2001 6:39 pm

Tighten up that hair and you win.

Manik Monkei · Posted: Mon Dec 10, 2001 1:18 am

I don't normally go for fanart... but... uh... damn. this is nice.

the face on the right is particularly nice-i remember it from your other post. did you have to dig up a lot of screens from the game for reference?

hope you win

Nice work Joel. You should draw a nice picture that we could use on the Battlefield 1942 package.. ^_^

I hope and guess you win..

Take care, Oscar

WOW! talk about respons... and good one too

Thank you guy's n' girl's!

I will soon clean upp the hair and hands. Thank you all once again for the comments. When I see such possitive response it really makes it worth drawing.

nice... face kinda reminds me of Jo Chen.
I agree on the hands, but also, the head looks a bit small on that body.

Jelo · Posted: Mon Dec 10, 2001 10:36 am

And now for some more some replys.

DiXter: No it's entirely painted in PS, though I did draw a B/W tiling pattern of flooboards and then used Maya to quikly render it as a reference grid in order to get it perspective correct. So I did use 3d a little

, or i clould have used PS's "transform" but it gives an askew and distorted result.
The floor is painted in several layers (as if it would be a shader for a 3D program: Specularity, diffuse, reflection an one for the cracks.

Manik Monkei: Yes I did digg alot for references. But they were of very poor quality, so I hade to scrutinize and compare them closely to get an understanding of the details. I really whanted to make the gamecharacters justice.

Duncan: I checked here out. Some very nice images. The head is maybe to smal but I whant him to look heroic.

THIS rules!

Tekken is my favorite fighting game ever, although i suck at it..

But anyway the image is awesome in all aspects especially his "I'm going to kick your a**" stance

Great job!

topeira · Posted: Mon Dec 10, 2001 3:23 pm

only crit i can think of taht wasnt said is that i think there should be a darker stonger shadow closer to his shews. but thats all.

beautiful piece! really remarkable. let us know who won the competition of tekken4

ReSistanZ · Posted: Mon Dec 10, 2001 4:18 pm

Two.... ehh.. eight thumbs up!

Almost forgot I was an octopus.

shahar2k · Posted: Mon Dec 10, 2001 8:26 pm

about the heroic thing the size of the head wouldnt matter, what would is more the pose you give him,
the size of the head is still kind of small, and it mostly affects the age of the charecter (young people have hands and heads too big for their body)
try making the colors in his face more intense... adding more blood to his face, in addition, but mainly just make the head a slight bit bigger and it'll be perfect

BlackNinja · Posted: Mon Dec 10, 2001 8:43 pm

arggg >,<...you just pissed me off...
My work compares to yours...its like rubbish..hmmmz

Shiro_tengu · Posted: Tue Dec 11, 2001 11:59 pm

awesome man

Muzman · Posted: Wed Dec 12, 2001 6:03 am

If he really is ready to rock, as it were, those knees could use a little more 'bounce'.
But I guess it's a little late.

Good luck
