What a great set of cheekbones!

Just thought you might like it. Too brief to be critiqued seriously

man that's awesome spooge

It looks like some sort of a combination between some sci-fi stuff and classic painting. love the shapes, shadows of the face and the way you've colored the whole picture.

The dark strokes to the upper left of the hat make it look as if he has rabbit ears under there

Other than that though its 'splendid quality good'

Holy bananas!
That look so good! I like the whole picture.
The colours and everything is just amazing!

Hey! That's very nice. I like the tint changes in the face, although a bit exaggerated. Very nice. =))

Nex · Posted: Thu Aug 03, 2000 6:24 am

nice work spooge, as usual.

great pic... and very bold color use.

What is this alter ego-new-name all about?
Your style is much too recognizeable

AliasMoze · Posted: Thu Aug 03, 2000 7:10 am

Wow. Nice, as usual, Spooge.

el tigre · Posted: Thu Aug 03, 2000 7:38 am

Why has spooge got a new name?

is it dead obvious to everyone else?

ignore me if it is.

Spooge, I salute you!

Does anyone know the secret formula? :�

i'd really love it if you could post a link to the full res, would be handy

Fred Flick Stone · Posted: Thu Aug 03, 2000 8:02 am

Does the new name have any reference to after watching John Watkiss? hehe...Beautiful image, I love the color shift in the face, and how you modelled it up. Beautiful...

R2 aka ROW · Posted: Thu Aug 03, 2000 8:19 am

Somehow this remembers me to Metal Gear Solid, great image anyway

Nightime · Posted: Thu Aug 03, 2000 8:32 am

*sigh*

Gladiator right?
He was the 2nd hand man to Russel Crow. Took care of his dog or something.

Tight movie.

how do you know thats spooge?

ozenzo · Posted: Thu Aug 03, 2000 9:22 am

almost didn't check this thead...that title brought back a memory of a previous post.....glad I checked it anyway

Super good!! I'm just amazed

Because only Spooge would think that that is "too breif" ? I dunno.

Simon Gustafsson · Posted: Thu Aug 03, 2000 9:42 am

I think his left shoulder looks weird, its right in front of him. But I like the face. Ecpecially the lips.

Yeah..I have to agree with everyone. The modulation of the face from warm to cools is very well done. The dark red tint to the ear in shadow is strong as well. Really feels like blood is flowing through this guy's face.
I agree this looks like the guy from Gladiator,(I believe he also was a general) What strikes me as odd here is the feel of the lighting. It might be because of the scarf but it feels like flourescent lighting instead of natural. But..as you said..it's too brief to be critiqued seriously.

Tinusch · Posted: Thu Aug 03, 2000 10:31 am

That's amazing. You're a genius. Most people would be afraid to try and color the face blue, but yet it looks so natural. Awesome job. Your knowledge of color never ceases to amaze me.

psi burn · Posted: Thu Aug 03, 2000 10:33 am

that would suck for this kid if he isnt spooge and isnt getting credit for it :/

Joachim · Posted: Thu Aug 03, 2000 12:15 pm

Fred, that John Watkiss guy, he did some really nice consept artwork for Disney's Tarzan...I loved those pictures he did a looong time before the movie was released. I can remember they used 2 or 3 of his pictures as movie teaser pics before anything was released from the film.
spooge, you should have invited him to join this forum

Hehe, if worthless_meat_sack is not spooge, then it must be his brother or something. Even with that spider robot thing in black and white I was pretty sure about the fact that spooge is worth_less_meatsack. And, I don't mean that litteraly, but by the name

-It's a very cool name though.

General Confusion · Posted: Thu Aug 03, 2000 12:56 pm

Awesome work! I love the face. So realistic, yet without sacrificing the brush strokes. Amazing. I think the colorisation of his lower face is what really makes the whole thing work though.

Keep up the great work, and keep posting it.
