Here's an image I had done months ago for a friend of mine. It was suppose to get used eventually, however, I'm not sure this eventually will come.

If you feel like commenting on it, go right ahead, it will be appreciated. Anyway, I just felt like giving it a purpose besides rotting on my hard-drive... so, here you go. =)

Spoiled by cable-modem -- sorry for the size.

Haha, awesome job Frost.

Oh, one thing... They call it smoking for a reason...

Pretty f##k'n cool picture. The shades are wicked.

ha that is a cool job frosty! kinda reminds me of the biz man. I think it could do with some texturing in places maybe, like the gun. but no matter mate, damn nice work.

Ha, ha, I like it Frost. Maybe you should give it a title. Something like "Don't EVER call me cute..." or "Small, but Savage".

Heh! Urban Grizzly! heheheh! That's damn cool Frost! And the fact that you made him pink added a lot to the humor effect. Awe, I like those sun glasses man!

I'm digging the shades on this Frost!

This is so perfect for a T-Shirt or video game mascot.

Frost,
I really like this image. Your textures are right on, instead of ambiguous. He's holding a big gun while giving a peace sign -- great irony.

The only teeny weeny criticism I would have is that the back leg doesn't quite look planted because of the way the shadow goes around his foot.

Anyway, great image. It's refreshing to see something non-futuristic or done from a photo.

Pretty cool one!

Just the machinepistol seems to be out of perspective somehow. I think its because the long side most to the left is not parallel to the others.

Great pic, where did he want to use it?

T-Shirts would be great with that bear on it

THis is really nice, frost. The values are very sensitive.

micke · Posted: Wed Jul 12, 2000 2:17 am

Very nice! The texture looks really good.
I also like the colours and the light and shadows. Frost,Your shading is kick-ass

The only thing that bothers me a bit is
the way he is standing. It looks like he is about to fall over. The gun looks heavy+he leans over a bit. That looks a bit uncomfortable.
Anyway, great good work!

The thing micke pointed out... You could actually just rotate the characher a bit to the right, and then just do some minor fixes on the feets.
But, great character anyway. I can't understand what you are whining about when you are talking about your skills

n8 · Posted: Wed Jul 12, 2000 4:57 am

hehehe...he got no nostrils...but thatd just ruin the pic...i like the fur =)

Frost · Posted: Wed Jul 12, 2000 5:00 am

Wow. Look at all the nice replies! *blush* Thanks guys - you're great. =)

There are quite a few errors in the pic as pointed out (perspective on and with the gun, weight distribution, even lighting), but it was done some time ago, earlier this year... not that I'm trying to make up any excuses. =)

Assa/Danny: Indeed, it was made for our composer friend Erik Lyden with his stylish guidance and comments for his website (not sure wether that is coming along at all). =)

Big bear hugs to all. =)

cheers,
frost.

Very Nice..like the feel...but I wasn't aware that they made short-sleeved Biker jackets. If he hits the pavement going over 40 there's going to be little tuffs of pink elbow fur strewn all over the highway!

Thats really great work Frost, I really like
