Finally!

I was wondering when someone would finally pay tribute to Time Fcuk for the calendar! I was almost gonna do one myself just to get it out there, but you saved me the trouble lol. Great tribute, really good shading and perfect capture of character.

Araelyn responds:

Aww thank you so much! Yeah, I've been wanting to do one for a while and this calendar was perfect motivation to do one.

Disturbing

Now this is a fantastic piece, I love the amount of details and shading and the variety of colors. It's also disturbing for me, the mantis-pegasus-thing is at least. And that bumps it up to 10/10 for me.

SUPER MUSHROOM KINGDOM FIGHTER II: TURBO

You know you have a great sense for shading and lighting, except I dislike Luigi's pale skin. He seems evil lol. I love the exaggerated characteristics, sense of perspective, and variety of characters adn expressions. Great work and details.

Why do your paintings seem to be slightly faded though?

Superb

This is superb work, very well done and I love the ambiance of it. Nice attention to details and lighting and I really like the pastel colors in it. Seems like the forest is on fire.

turma13 responds:

Thanks for the feedback. I'm glad to know the lighting in the forest worked--it was very difficult to pull off with pastel ;)

Excellent!

I didn't know what to expect when clicking the thumbnail, and was totally surprised when I saw it was EWJ! What a classic. Your own drawing style gives it a very nostalgic feel too, props for capturing everything so well. The only thing that doesn't sit right with me is his face, it doesn't match the original facial style too well...but on the other hand it does show your own touch and I can't knock it for that. Great work.

Wow

I had the same thoughts as m1kclark, that I mistook it for a 3D render. Fantastic vector work, it's almost perfect. I think the analog nub needs more shading/detph on it, and that the face buttons on the right could use a slight bit more specular shading to make it look less flat, but otherwise this is really well done.

I like

Now this one I really like. At first I thought there was too much noise in the image, but I think the real issue is that the noise is too grainy. Maybe soften the noise a bit. With that said, I like the open feeling of the image.

BenTibbetts responds:

Thanks. Fair criticism; I think a higher quality render might fix that so I'll give it a try.

Superb!

This is top-notch work, from the slight focal blur to the extensive details put into the lighting. Fantastic work on the scales and the rim lighting on the lower-right part of the scene, and major props for the very slight asymmetry of the face and camera angle--I've seen too many head-on illustrations that look like it's been mirrored, but nothing about this image gives that feeling. Simply superb work!

Nice of you to share

Nice of you to share it! So you're updating the original one you posted on the 2nd? Would you mind explaining your light set up? It looks like there's three light sources, but is there also some ambient occlusion going on? I love how the hair looks so good in the render shot. It's cool to see a high res version of this guy.

Osuka responds:

crap, im trying to update the information but the page dont let me :s

Information:
-6 Lights used (3 Directional - 3 Omnis)
-Used Irradiance Illumination
-Used VRAY DIRT to make the oclussion effect on the face
-The hair was made with 42 PLANES with HAIR MAPS
-The ZDEPTH layer is used to blur only the part behind

Epic

What a fantastic image! The lighting is excellent and I like the overall composition too. My favorite aspect of this is the shading, however. I hope you make it onto the calendar!

Jobertson responds:

yeah, i think the shading probably is the strong point :D
thanks for commenting
