Apologies if you've already seen it at eatpoo/cgtalk/gfxartist . . .

Fantastic Work

I love your art, you're one of my favorite artists in here.
You have a incredible shading style.

I am impressed.

Thanks guys!

bound: its meant to be one of those leather caps that pilots used to wear. It read better when it hand straps, but they looked goofy so I got rid of them.

Everything looks great, but I think you should amp up the shadow behind the girl-- She looks a bit like she is floating...

I was wondering ever since I first saw this at eatpoo. What is with the dudes head? Really is that some kind of left over from Silance of the Lambs? Ballistic I think this is piece of perfection. Your choice in colour and tones *mua-mua* postioning(the characters), compostion, setting is remarkable. The shriff rocks!

Good work and all... but, I saw this on eat poo in the contest thread and... what the hell does this have to do with golems????

ceenda: thanks cap'n. And yeah, its Photopaint 10.

Neo: its tough to balance stuff like that from monitor to monitor.

boom: thanks!

Luna: gracias. I was pretty happy with how the sky turned out. I think I'll try that layering technique more in future work.

Machine God: it hasn't got anything to do with golems

There's actually an alternate topic of "what if the Nazis won WW2?" . . . a couple of other people have done that one, but most people seem to be into golems.

These characters are meant to be North American freedom fighters near the Canadian border.

Not very often do I try to do this but I did a little overpaint. I think it kinda gets the idea out there at he least.
